Tried caapi for the first time, with mhrb. Black caapi : 20g, mhrb: 6g. Successful trip. No discomfort, was again deep in Pharaos land for 3 hrs, have to think first before trying to describe the experience..

  So I just has to be that rue extract that caused the discomfort, although that same rue extract was instead inactive (low potency?) at other times?. I am not sure if I was unlucky and got something unrelated to rue extract that coincided with taking the extract. The very creepy part here is  PRECEDING the horrid pain,  i.e. at the start of the trip I  got  very wildy different CEV, very dark, disgusting  and  kind of everyday life related items in the visuals, papers, tables,  schematics... At any rate I am not going to try rue extract again.  It is going to be all "homebrewed" from now on. One note though is that the hardest part about the trip(by very far) is the actual drinking of the brew. it got exponentially more difficult  as if it something supernatural surrounding the actual  horrid drinking act.. Pharmahuasca next.

I know this thread included too many other things beyond the original topic, but since I am a beginner I didnt want to create many threads.  This thread  has been basically for my questions thus far.

Now back to the completely unexpected pharaos.  I get through all these psychedelic experience because I want to try to resolve personal issues of mines that are all psychological. Strange enough even if I - fully aware during the trip-tried to guide my trip towards my issues, the trip DECIDEDLY only goes through the Pharao lands..  I thought like you know, the trip should go towards the subject that relates to you, your deep fears, deep thoughts. On the other hands it keeps  returning to Pharaos..

Something starts to make think that perhaps psychedelics activates some special part of our consciousness... maybe the place  where we all  have the concept of magic..
