(Salvia Divinorum 5x / .10-15g) - New to psychs - Someone wants me at a carnival?

I'm very curious to hear some interpretations of my last several trips on Salvia.

After delving pretty deep into Mary Jane and clearing my mind, and figuring out who I was, I decided to take a step into the world of salvia. I've tripped about 4 or 5 times now and each time I've used a little bit more than the last time. Starting with .06g and up to .15g of 5x.

While every experience has been different, there are some recurring themes and feelings... specifically feelings of being a child, and being in some kind of carnival or circus.

There is this strong fluxing presence that feels like a carnival ride.

The feeling of this carnival and ride is manifested by some odd emotions and feelings that come over me, and the visual (not even sure if they were open or closed eye) of repeating images of whats around me. Quite a bit like a spinning fractal art image. It's all very smooth and it's happening before I really realize it.

My last trip left me almost a little sad. I felt the presence of a ride being right by the left of head, and I was being rushed to get on it by someone. Like a "come on! come on! lets go!"

I couldn't "get on" the ride though.


This is hardly specific enough I'm sure, but I feel as if some presence is running a carnival and they want me to get on a ride.

Can anyone shed a little light or relate an experience? I've interpreted the ride both ways, that reality is the ride, and I don't want to get off. Or that Salvia is the ride, and I can't seem to get on. Either way, this comical, tricky, fun, carnival sensation truly fascinates me.

I'd like to note that my emphasis on the carnival feel is in no way meant to devalue all the aspects of my salvia trips. Every single portion of them has been amazing. It's the feeling of another consciousness with motives and intents that starts really peaking my interest though.

I have had the carnival effect from Salvia also. My take on it for myself is Salvia gives me a black back ground and 2 dimensional bright colored objects, the only thing my brain can come close to relating it to is a circus or carnival.
I think a lot of times psychedelic experiences are just so bizarre and foreign to peoples minds they have to put some kind of identity on them just to take in the experience. So people label them the closet thing they know.

Many people also get visuals that are like rides, conveyor belts and other types of mechanical moving patterns. I get them also, I have no clue what to make of them...?

This recent report suggest a similar experience of being "...taken to the factory of the universe, a bazaar, circus like structure..." I have myself experienced such a state under the influence of three good hits of 20x, where I was placed in a mechanical stucture that moved in circles in carefully timed ticks, much like the seconds hand of a clock. The similarity of Salvia experiences despite great differences in personal factors is striking, and must have significance to understanding consciousness. I am anxiously awaiting more research into its inner workings.
