This weekend I made it out to a beautiful little festival in the rolling hills and new-growth forests near my new home. I've just moved to a different part of the country, and was lucky enough to discover there was a very nice festival going on nearby. I took it as a sort of "Welcome Home" from the Universe, since I met many kind and like-minded peoples from all over the surrounding parts, and I instantly knew I would feel quite at home here, even though it's a somewhat different culture than where I've been living.
I ended up working security at the front gate, basically looking through people's cars and making sure the "Nitrous Mafia" was kept out, and soon enough a car pulled up with an old friend from back home. I had no idea he was coming, so it was a welcome surprise, and also a bit exciting since this particular friend is a reputable source for very clean and potent LSD. I asked if he brought any along, but he said he didn't due to various concerns he had about traveling with it in unfriendly parts. However, he did bring along a quantity of what's called "Sass" or "Organic Ecstasy" by the hippie crowds; my friend insisted it was MDA but I wasn't sure given how he described the clean effects. At first I was resistant to the idea of trying it, but after hearing some positive reports, and realizing that I was in a very friendly and loving crowd of like-minded souls - I don't think the word "friends" quite applies - a better description is "brothers and sisters" or simply "family" - and knowing that my friend was a very trustworthy source, I decided it'd be the perfect opportunity to try out this well-reputed material. In addition - and I'm afraid the "scientifically" minded folks may laugh at this - there was a bit of a synchronicity surrounding the circumstances, where someone placed a sign with a large X directly on top of my tent - so I took this as a little sign from the Universe to try out some of the "Organic Ecstasy" that was drawing such rave reviews from fellow travelers. In addition, I had brought along a quantity of 2C-E, intending to take it on its own, but I figured I'd try out the MDx/2C-x combination that has drawn such positive reviews from the psychedelic therapy community.
So around 4 PM Saturday, I took a tenth of a gram of the "Sass", a slightly-brownish-white crystalline powder, followed an hour later by 18 mg 2C-E, and WOW! For an hour and a half I thought nothing would happen, then all of a sudden SHAZAM. The next 3-4 hours was an insanely beautiful, intense, heart-filled, loving experience. It was such a lovely gift to be surrounded by groovy people, listening to positive music with a stunning light show, and climaxing on whatever chemical the "Sass" may be. The most glorious moment of the experience was feeling the serotonin being released - an absolutely ecstatic feeling, but one I'm afraid needs to be limited to rare occasions. Also, while listening to the climax of the main show, with a most delicious Shpongle-like electronic jam-band improvising to a brilliantly-designed light show, I felt what I can only describe as the "Healing Earth-mother" reach her hand up through my spine, massaging my heart centers, and using the music to give me an ultimate inner massage. The strong serotonin release continued for a couple of hours - towards the beginning of the journey I considered asking the friend for a finger-dip-boost off the magic stash, but pretty soon as the serotonin began to release I realized this was unnecessary; this serotonin release was an absolutely incredible feeling, and the entire experience was full of magic, both internal and external, just like mescaline, and beautifully entactogenic to top it off; a phrase that I've seen used to describe MDMA experiences, "comfortable rushing", describes it well. The come-down was gentle as well, and the 2C-E then came on strong; a powerful visionary experience ensued, and I saw that this is indeed a stunning combination. It was an undeniably wild and crazy experience, and something I'm very grateful for. I won't be meeting the MD* family often (due to concerns about messing with the serotonin system) but this experience was medicinal at the core.
All in all, for anyone interested in the MDx family, I recommend following it with a 2C* for a highly emotional and psychedelic journey, or perhaps taking dragon-n's advice for combining MD* with other materials in order to reduce the load the MD* takes on your body. The "Sass" opened up my Heart Space to a degree I've never experienced, and the ensuing 2C-E journey was deeply visionary and helped me to reflect on what had happened and how to integrate it into my life. Also I am curious if anyone knows more about what "Sass" actually is. The experience - in both duration and subjective effects - sounds very similar to the MDA reports on Erowid and elsewhere, minus the negative aspects such as amphetamine-like tension that I've experienced with an equivalent amount of lab-made MDA. Other friends' descriptions of their "Sass" experiences parallel my own, including the smoothness of the come-down and the lack of noticeable after-effects, and this doesn't correspond to the research that's been done showing that MDA commonly has hangover effects. It's not MDMA, since it's very psychedelic on its own, and doesn't appear to be MDA, even though that's what everyone claims it is, given the lack of aftereffects. I've looked through 69Ron's "Is Safrole Psychedelic" and none of the compounds mentioned there seem to be correspond to the effects of "Sass". It doesn't appear to be a simple extract of sassafras root - the sources state that a chemical process is done on the sassafras oil to obtain the "Sass". Does anyone on here have similar experiences to report, or any clue what this worthy medicine may be?
