wicans wiccans everywhere! its great!
i certainly think my powers of perception have increased greatly with my occasional use of drugs. it changes the functioning of our brains and so i think it can help us to tune into some different frequency or something that otherwise would not be possible. music can help too. ive entered trance like states a couple of times when the music slows down to a certain speed (think the start of Scott Project's 'O'-that low, bassy beat that a bit slower than the rest).
the first time this happened it was for quite some time and i was just enveloped by nothingness (for lack of a better word). nothing existed; not time, space, my surroundings or even myself as i knew it. just blackness. it kinda startled me when i realise what had happened because i hadnt meant to do it. not to say that it wasnt cool! very peaceful, zen like. but i digress!
there have been many times that i have felt the presence of entities while being off my own. in fact most of the times that i have been to sublime ive felt at least one of them. theres a paticular spot on the floor that it comes to me. most of the time its pleasant and cheerful but sometimes can be a bit smothering & claustrophobic.
the first time these came to me i was on the voodoo dancefloor and i shit you not i felt somehing around my wrist dragging me towards the front door. now so far, my psychic ability has been limited to seeing things with my mids eye, rather than 'seeing ghosts' or whatever, and suddenly i got this very vivid picture of a 20 something guy with brown hair & a blue shirt. at the same time it was telling me 'get out of here, its too much for you, you need to chill. it spooked me, cause it kept pulling, so i decided to move to a different spot.
once i did, i got a very clear mental picture of a freckly blonde girl in pigtails wearing pink who gave me a hug & reassured me that i was okay over here. so i felt better & merrily continued about my evening. after visiting the club a few more times she would come to me more often & for longer periods, eventually telling me her name was nicole & the boy who tried to pull me away, his name was samuel, & aggreed that he wasnt very pleasant. sounds like a lot of bs i know, unless you believe in this sorta stuff.
so anyway i got to talking with one of my friends once, who happens to be an incredibly powerful psychic (she sees dead people!) and she said she had a conversation with a similar lookin guy, just your average 'hows yer night goin' chit chat, and, well, he wasnt actually there. subsequently she had a vision of people dancing all around her & feeling 'i'm fading away & nobody notices'. which i think we can all see is entirely possible. people are in their own world a lot of the time.
anyway, just thought i might ask if anyone else has had similar experiences while being in a club or rave or anything. seeing people that arent really there & such.
ok end ramble here
oh! ps! so glad to hear you're ok Dante!
