She set the intention to hold the brightest, lightest and most healing energy to be served for the whole experience. To be overcome with everything and all things spiritual and releasing all that no longer served her for her souls own growth. She was nervous but her love held her hand through it all and was she ever happy to have this adventurous, loving, and grounding soul walk this path with her. Excited and nervous all at once they began, sitting on her bed he grabbed into the bag and passed her the first one. Bringing it to her lips and biting down in her mouth overcome with a dry, bitter, earthy taste. With a little water they weren’t that bad! With a kiss and a scurry to get out the door they began the adventure.
At first it was slow, not really knowing what to expect but then when the world began to get brighter, and time seemed to slow down. Ever so slightly a smile graced her lips. She had always been able to see energy and things that people hear only in tales of shamans, yogic scriptures, and monk who practice days on end of deep meditation upon fasting and mountain top secluded caves. Yet for her it was a part of her daily life, which became amplified by 1000% now. The plan was to visit the planetarium and watch a show all about the universe. As they waited in the lobby before the show started, she began witnessing the people around and the children that excitedly waited to see the dome screen. Trails of movement from a person or child's foot/hand could be seen trailing like a train of light from the second they began lifting to when it fell back to where they desired it. While before would only last seconds upon concentrating heavily on this movement trail. Auras surrounding a person that only when focused with a trained eye could see dark areas or imbalances in the field, could now be seen on multitudes of people at once with very little focus. Children were bright and full of color where adults could be seen with small grey clouds looming around. When it came to the spirits, angels, ancestors, guides and spirit animals that follow us making sure that we are protected, guided and loved from behind us were now seen as if clear as looking at your hand in front of your face. It was a huge comfort for her knowing that what she knew, and felt on a daily could be seen, felt or known on a deeper level then she could've imagined. Because hey, even she had doubts into a world so few can even phantom to be real. Once the planetarium show finished and her mind was full of beautiful knowledge, sights and sounds from the show they left the theater and began the walk home. At times she did become overwhelmed during the show as her senses were heightened to a whole other level with the amount of 6th sense sensory funneling through. Ever so thankfully for her own guides softly whispers in her ear telling her to relax and just breath, which she welcomingly did. When she slowed her breath down she found herself letting big continues yawns out clearing away all the negative energy within her own body system. Releasing energy as was familiar doing within healing sessions given too clients. Yawning and yawning over and over she hadn’t realize how much her own energetic body needed this high healing modality. Any onlooker would've suspect that she was in desperate need of a bed!
When it came to the outside world on their walk she was amazed at how beautiful the world was again to her. As if she were a child looking at the world with a fresh pair of eyes. Nature seemed to beacon her inner clock asking it to slow down and return to the rhythm of a natural cycle. Not this fast-paced rushing way of living she got whirlwind in like so many others do. When you begin slowing down this much you become thankful and appreciative of all around you in ways that had you questioning why you hadn’t been before. Bewildered at how warm the sun is, how green the grass becomes, how cooling and calm the ocean waves are, or even how beautiful song birds sing their tune without any care to who is listening.
When the two returned from their outdoor adventure and brought things back to the comfort of her home the experience shifted. No longer connecting to the world around her but the connection with herself and her love. Lying next to him on her bed looking up at the ceiling in complete euphoric bliss. Marveling at all that she had surrounded herself with on a daily basis. The light colours that reflected so much of her soul. Crystals that shined as light as her own smile when she felt it from her core. Plants that were thriving and growing with each day. All things that. reminded her to surround yourself with what you love.
She looked at the ceiling and walls watching them move and dance into patterns that the brain could only comprehend in an altered state. The two blissed out beings shared giggles that turned into laughs that had them tearing up. To quiet moments with only deep looks and soft smiles. When it came to love making her man was the most loving as she broke down twice in tears, once out of the amount of love she could feel towards another human being beside herself. The other time after fully climaxing eye’s closed and brought to another world, where everything that she had been holding on too came flooding through her in waves of physical tears. Trying to stop the flow but realizing that it just needed to be released. Allowing her love to hold the space for her she couldn’t have asked for a better partner. It felt like she was releasing the tears from the world around her, to those who couldn't cry she did for them. To those that needed nothing more but to feel again. It was more of liberating cry then a sad one, feeling lighter and smiling softly through. Once the last tear fell, and the sun started setting the calm and utter sense of all was well did true peace filled her whole entire being. As if in a fully aware meditation, completely present in the moment. Never had she experienced anything that had touched, moved, or freed her soul as much as taking a healing plants journey.
Now y'all can call me a huge hippy but it has been awhile that my heart soared this freely with my soul. So as nerve-racking as it is opening up about this I wanted to write to you about my first time taking mushrooms. To share with you about my experience and the profound healing I found, spiritually, mentally, and most of all cleansing emotionally it had on me. All that brought me back to feelings and aha moments I had through my vision quest in Sedona after I ended my engagement. Just shy a year to that date. I believe that others who want to reconnect to nature/Mother Earth, their partners, creativity or purely themselves shouldn’t be scared of using natural substances to find their own piece of peace. Now of course in writing this I'm not saying that it's for everyone, and I mean this. That the views and taboos on this beautiful natural psychedelic given to us by Mother Earth unaltered by human manipulation can and did bring so much enlightenment to me. It came to me when I was in a need of bringing my whole being back to its completeness. I feel like if anyone is curious about taking it, and honestly asked me what I thought about shrooms I would be telling you everything like I’ am now. That being said, I had what is called a good trip. I’ve been in an amazing state prior, during, and after it and found that it didn’t change the core of who I am at all at any points. Though as the law of duality goes, if there are good trips there are also bad trips. Which you know your body better then any other person and would listen to your own intuition before doing or taking anything. This applies to everything in life! Do not do anything when you have even the slightest gut feeling telling you not too.
Overall my experience was such a positive one that it has made me curious to explore more the idea of working with plants and their profound healing properties for all things spiritual, and whole wellbeing knowledge they can provide us. That eating a mushroom which came from the earth unaltered by man gave me peace knowing that I was putting a 100% natural substance into my body first and foremost, as in the old days. As long as its used with the respect it deserves and treated with sensitivity at all times. Where ever life leads you make your journey your own, free from judgement and free to love in this big beautiful and of course bright world.
Namaste my light beings!
Yours truly,
The White Witch
