The carnival

[gooseisgoose08]

Has anyone else experienced a carnival on DMT?
How many people here have ended up in some kind of carnival during a DMT trip? On my first real DMT trip, I saw a carnival full of expanding tents, lights, and clowns. It wasn’t a full breakthrough, but it was still pretty intense, and that imagery has stuck with me. I’m curious how common this is. Has anyone experienced something similar, either during a breakthrough or before reaching that point?

I've seen something similar on many occasions: spinning red, orange and yellow carnival/circus tents with striped or checkerboard patterns. No jesters, though. I usually see this during the first few seconds or so.

I think that's where the circus also comes from, watch some Cirque de Soleil shows, it gives a good new perspective on these experiences.

Especially clowns or dancing jesters are "common", although you cannot know beforehand what's going to happen.
