Just a curious thing. I have heard a lot of people say it doesn't mean anything! But, when I first encountered it, it certainly meant something to me!

Let's all vote and see what others think.
 
Are you speaking of mandelbrots?

Yes, the fractal-like visuals you will have on a big enough dose of a psychedelic.
 
presuming i understood the conversation i had with dedao (asnd im not even sure i understand what i am saying)

such a thing would represent the ability of perspective, that you can take any object and given a new light (or enough mirrors) you can make anything look new and fantastic, if only for a fleeting moment.

but i dont think we are working with the same defition here, and jamie needs to top using the "infinite geometric pattern" to represent the libido, im just saying that stuff is confusing.
 
(Vote = Other) Quite possibly a very rough interpretation but I got the feeling that while in this place I was in a "loading area".

Kind of like being orientated (as per my overall resonance) to determine direction of deeper travel.

I am nowhere near as experienced in these realms as others though, this is just my personal initial impression.
 
I voted "Other"

In the geometric patterns of hyperspace I see the geometric patterns of regular-space. In both places all this geometry points to real-world examples, connections and disparities between those examples, and new connections and understandings that I've not remembered happening upon before.
 
To me personally when i see geometric patterns it means it is a sub-breakthrough dose i have had.

In a breakthrough i never see just patterns. I will always see characters (not always entities) if you are seeing geometric patterns my advice would be smoalk moar!

When I had my first breakthrough it involved what seemed to be these geometric patterns initially, followed by them 'morphing' into some magic eye type thing. First a table, then a vase on the table (with an unmistakable feminine energy) the whole thing rotated around and was quickly followed by 'the moment' where it did not matter anymore if my eyes were open or closed.

After that there were no geometric patterns, just images of which I could explain about 10% of what I saw :shock:
 
Thank you guys for answering. I think this pattern can be many things depending on the person perceiving it.

It means you are tripping balls :P

Most logical answer is this one, to me its a display of energy in the space im usually in in that particular time frame. IE it changes based on set, setting, and time I use it.
 
Other -> To me the patterns don't really mean anything (for me DMT kinda beats the crap out of my feeble attempts to derive "meaning" from it) BUT... I do find it fascinating that everyone sees these things.

It shows that we are wired to perceive reality similarly; so much so that we perceive similarly incredible phenomena (such as geometric patterns) under the influence of psychedelic compounds.

What did it mean to you?

It was the underlying fabric of knowledge and energy; it IS the universe.

Showing interconnectedness between even the furthest away of objects. Connected through love and life.
 
These patterns have such a variety of layers of meaning that it's practically unfair to call these patterns any one thing in particular. I feel that you'd have to be so incredibly vague to err on the border of meaningless if you could come up with a unified meaning for these patterns....either meaningless or you've "cracked the code" in which case you probably wouldn't be able to type it up into words anyway :roll:
 
One thing that struck me was the precision linearity of the fractal patterning.
It's as though they are so 'digital' that I have a hard time reckoning that they are produced by an organic source (such as the brain).
Therefore by means of deductive logic...they must come from elsewhere...

But where?
