After an eye-opening Trinity Sunday morning service at the Episcopal Church - evidently a One Love church (who knew?) - and an aloe-soaked visit to the local herb festival - I partook of the juice from the second lemon juice+spring water pull off the 150 gram Torch experiment reported a couple of weeks ago...the one that ended up (courtesy of the Universe) turning into an unexpected and *POWERFUL* Torch+LSD combo interface reported at: Peruvian Torch + LSD report - LSD, LSA, LSH - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus
After drinking the usually nasty tea, I walked up to the local Unitarian Church (yet another One Love church...that is, a church that practices love and service to all beings) for their late morning service. The Torch began to kick in as I entered the outdoor patio, where some friends were gathered. I found out that the day's service would be the children classes' final project of the year...a dramatic depiction of "Earth-Based Spirituality". I spent most of the church in the rear, passing notes with an old friend I'd met there, but paid enough attention to notice that the child-created program was outlined with pictures of thorny cacti, and the entire production centred around stories from the Southwest, and the cast included a little fellow very much enjoying one of the main roles decorated as "Mr. Cactus". All this went on as the Cactus went through my system and began to take *full effect*. Call me psychotic but I don't understand how these apparent "coincidences" or "synchronicities" can be boiled down to "mere chance"...
After the service I helped to re-organized the chairs, then headed for a purposefully purposeless walk down the road...I've taken Cactus walks of these sorts before, almost as a scientific experiment. I simply begin the walk, and ask the Universe or G/d or the Cosmic Forces or the Unconscious or Aliens or Life or (insert metaphor of choice) what the result will be. And the Universe NEVER fails to provide very very intriguing results when I do this. After making it only a 100 yards or so, I was joined on my walk by an apparently homeless or lost or at the very least tag-less puppy. I never saw where he came from, as from my point of view he was suddenly walking with me. He seemed to be enjoying my company and I was certainly enjoying his, so we took in the sunshine in a nearby park for a good bit. At this point the Cactus was coming on strong, with inner and outer visuals and strange meetings between. I decided at this point to give the local Humane Society a call regarding my companion, and they asked me to bring him on by. This itself turned into a wild Cactus adventure holding my newfound friend down in the back of a friend's pickup truck full-speed on the way to the Humane Society...
After some friendly conversations with the ever so kind Humane Society people, my friend dropped me off at the same corner I met the dog at. For several hours I walked around town, engaging in conversation with several of the local homeless people I've come across here, then headed off to log into the Network, and here I find myself.
The Peruvian Torch experiment was a success...powerfully active, even hints at contact with the DMT hyperspace which seems to be downloading me, despite the fact I haven't done deep work with the Spice for a good number of weeks...but here's my question to other Nexus members: do you find that intentional psychedelic use tends to generate or bring about those uncanny meaningful coincidences or meetings of the inner/outer world to which Dr. Jung applied the designation "synchronicity"?
For me the answer is an unequivocal yes. Friends of mine have also noted that the weeks after psychedelic journeys are full of deep coincidences between their inner life developments and outer life developments, and one of my heroes, Pope Robert Anton Wilson, described these psychedelic synchronicities as "usual". Another question for the Nexians, one that would be helpful for me as well: do you have any experience with synchronicities relating to the powerful little magic hat known as DMT?

. There is a slight tension recognizable from the previous, Syrian Rue try with this combo. It feels like my legs are being held by a monster deep inside the Earth, and I'm tremoring upwards into the ceiling, almost like a Kundalini serpent un-spiraling.
