2:05 PM EST Full Moon (second
full moon in one month)
10X SBC, one moderate lungful, living room, sitter, music
I held the smoke until I wasn't sure what I was doing as far as
breath. I saw the TV (on - but muted) and the wall in front of me
morph into a close up of a beanstalk or large tree. (I remember
feeling like a bug, shrunk down small during my one level 5. This
time it was not as drastic.)
The vision or membrane or Salvia-wall didn't knock me over like my
level 5. It just grew in front of me. I was still aware of ego
perception. I call all visions in front of me level 4 >
The TV image looked very clear, but now it segmented into leaf
sections, embossed and smooth and rich in color. The corner of the
TV room looked like a branch, part of this large 'corn stalk' or
Salvia plant. I commented that the people on the screen were
enjoying that they were in on the leafy vision. I said 'Look, they
are laughing, too'
I felt a brief sweat as my body was holding smoke or just unsure
about temp, perhaps, but I soon realize I'm breathing and talking to
my sitter about the vision. She verified I was breathing. I lost a
lot of body awareness, as I later found myself curling or bowed like
a leaf in my bar stool for some reason, like complying with my
vision.
I had just a little trouble finding some of the words, but I giggled
as I described the beanstalk.
My mood improved 10 fold. I had a thought that I was "in between
plant consciousness and human consciousness" like the bridge
connecting both of us.
I said, 'That's weird', inquisitively, a few times thruout the
session. It was about 6 minutes or so. Bob Marley Live just had
started playing...'trenchtown rock'... I mentioned to my sitter that
the vision was receding.
There's more but I stop here.

My mother, J (70yrs old),
had one puff of Sageman's 5X (approx. 1/25
gram) extract.
She was sitting, but just as she was going to say "I feel nothing"
she laid down and sensed something rolling over her. It was compared
to the rock coming after Indiana Jones or the big white ball in 'The
Prisoner', although she couldn't describe the exact form of this
object. It was not an entity she said.
She was trying to say to me what it felt like but each time she tried
to talk the force rolled over her. It wasn't painful, there was no
fear at all. The feeling was like the suction cups on a frogs feet
(she saw a TV show on frogs earlier), rolling over and over her,
pressing her into a "fruit roll-up". If you don't know, those are
fruit snacks pressed out flat. She was laying on the bed with eyes
closed, smiling. She later said this might have helped roll out pains
in her back; her trouble spot.
"Christmastime is Here (Instrumental)" was on the CD. After 5
minutes, she began to explain what she was feeling. Somewhere near
the end she had a vision of shiny bronze leaves 'falling' up to the
sky.
She had some clarity as she was asking me to ask any question, and
she could give me the answer. She has been an astrologer for well
over a quarter century, so I think she is somewhat geared for this
experience.
Soon after, she said her thinking was clearer. she said she felt no
aches and pains for hours. (she normally does feel pains) The next
day she said she took fewer aspirin than usual.
She woke after 'the best sleep in a long time' (5 good hours compared
to 2-3) with the feeling of heavy sleep. (like a log)
She woke with notably less aches. Another effect was a positive
attitude.
A person who said she would never use Salvia now says she would use
it again. "It's good"

Sept 17 2003
I have some '5X' from you , Sageman, I received it around March 2003.
I just tried a tiny bowl of it.
It was as small as the mass of 1/2 a pea.
I am a moderate hardhead. Quids are not effective, I've tried many
times. EE is good with MANY droppers but I can't afford that anymore,
right now.
(Daylighted room, not bright, 1PM-ish, soft jazz, 1 inch pipe)
I felt warmth thru my veins, I felt as if I didn't have to
exhale...holding it in kept me in a different world..but I exhaled. I
noted the music sounded more clear, I heard it better. The song
was "Charlie Brown's Xmastime Is Here" (no vocal, just that gentle
piano, bass, and brushes on drums) Then, I recalled some feelings I
had during my level-5 and I smiled.
I felt that some people were close...as I looked and blinked my eyes
slowly, what I saw (half in vision - half minds eye) was like a
treehouse in front of me, like a giant asparagas. The leaves, looking
like that same old mud or clay, along the whole branches. The people
were telling me some things, not with words out loud (you Salvianauts
understand) but I think there was a few of them. Good Salvia people -
the Keebler elves, again?? Much smarter than them, though LOL
I felt as if I was getting more info, the same info on all my SD
sessions, I just took it in: respect nature..believe in true
greatness, or something, I can never get a full hold on the message
when I come back.
I felt as if I could reach those childhood thoughts, the pure ones,
without all the filters, you guys know! ..to think like a kid again...
I made the observation that all my level sessions below level-5 are
visions 'in front' of my perception;
Where as the level-5, the vision comes all the way to you and thru
your body, a intense transition...that's where you are completely out-
of-body, all invisioned..identity gone..full open-eye visuals with no
chance of seeing anything around you.
I ended the last part of the session (T + 6 minutes) with some
attention to my heart, I 'fixed' it using hand motions, with eyes
closed, listening now to Moby's "Porceline" (a good SD song). I don't
really know what I'm doing - but I'm in a kinda trance.
I would rate this as a high level-3. The afterglow is amazing. I feel
so much better. Thanks, and peace to all the Salvianauts!
STATS:
1/30 gram '5X' from SAGEMANSELLS
Moderate hardhead had level 3-4
"I rate it, no doubt, at least 10X, smooth, no cough or bad taste"

The following is from a recording on tape.
It was just after a Salvia session. The grammar is not perfect.
"Today is Wednesday October 1st, 2003.
It is around 12 noon. I decided to smoke a small amount of 'Sageman' 5x salvia
extract. As I was holding in the hit I felt like I was changing identity and I
tried to think of who I was and I found out that I am a salvianaut when I am on
salvia.
The visions I was seeing was that a giant
beanstalk or asparagus-like tree-house in front of me was forming, but this time
it was moving almost as if it was ready to launch us out. I sensed other
entities around me that were making themselves known as 'salvia woodland
community people'.
It was like all things were tying into
other parts of salvia trips that I had so this trip really felt like part II of
some story that was being unfolded in my head. And a lot of things connected to
the nature aspect or being a person like a jolly green giant type person that is
of the plant. I thought I looked down and saw a 'vest' of leaves on my chest.
I felt like the landscape was moving and my
eyes were half open and I would classify this as a high level 3 or a low level 4
where as I could kind of delve into the image or experience it if my eyes were
closed, but when I open them I became aware that I was somewhere even though my
house (in front of me) looked like, somewhat... my perception was that we were
inside the woods.
(I had a vision of the information which a
plant receives from the source. This looked like a cross section of a large
stem, growing.)
Of course, I had Charlie Brown's
"Christmas Time is Here" instrumental playing in the background
followed by Moby's "Porcelain" which added to the aferglow &
contemplation which was very peaceful. Many of the things I can't recall, as
usual, but they were embedded within me."

Friday 12:44 am?
4 gram aprox dose of homemade microwave
tincture
cough disrupts coming up at 7 min mark
settled and slow effects at +8-14
total effect seemed to last just over an
hour.
high level 3?
Music - selected tracks off Deja Vu by CSNY
Feeling like I have to welcome the spirits.
My open hand ready to allow
them in or out. The scene looks like a cave
with veinlike walls. Standing
by to have my skin come off but I still
remain a person. No level 5 but
an understanding of how intimate SD is. She
can read your deepest thoughts.
Some memories of places in my
childhood..but I can't recall now.
Staring w/ eyes half open I seem to travel
into orbit and I see part of
the surface of a planet and a satellite
overhead. I realize soon it's
my nonmoving ceiling fan.
Then, I'm losing track of time and I have
the tinc in the back of my throat
and wondering when to swallow. I seem to be
moving over a landscape which
I soon believe to be the inside of my body.
I see a crosslike opening which
I think is my mouth, from the inside view,
looking out and I get the message
to swallow the tinc, and the partially
opened 'cross' would seal over and some
inner voyage would ensue.
No vision actually commenced as I think the
music kept me grounded.
Not to say the music didn't sound good. It
sounded real good and I could
hear all the parts very clearly. The music
envoked deep emotions.
At one point, a song I know and like a lot,
'Helpless', came on and I felt
that 'dying' feeling like Neil Young was
saying, "In my mind I still need
a place to go, all my changes were
there." As if like in my mind, without my body,
dead and disembodied. '..All my changes
were there', as to say the transition
between life and death (which we choose to
forget, but it wasn't long ago) is what
I was seeing/feeling. I saw my body almost
disappear and I still waited for
the imaginal realm to encompass me but it
never totally did. Which is fine.
I heard the voices in my head which
indicated 'the source of the voices are my own
self' and I asked 'how many?', then they
retorted 'seven, five, nine, six' etc.
I took that to mean innumerable.
I slowly fell drifted across the couch as I
was a little tired. I got up and
crawled into bed a fell into a semi-deep
sleep.
In retrospect, I should use no music, or
more 'religious' music or instrumentals.
I should have used a stronger dose as
somehow the tinc seemed weak. I did have
some honey so I have to adjust the dilution
amount or dropper/reduction amount.
Or it could be something else. This is
different leaf so the factors are vast.

Late afternoon
4 ? grams eyeballed
platheu 26 minutes (first 10-14 best)
Level 4
Watching the surging wall form and approach
Like slow motion, rather than fast with
smoking extract. You really do have time to
use framework before the vision.
the music (Urban Gypsies - 'Faith' CD) was
directing the ride. Jesus stuff..heaven-visions.
The imaginal realm behind closed eyes, the
new world that walks 'with you - all the time'
The other side of the mind.
who am I? contorting into positions as the
surge comes, like a tree in the wind or growing
brambles..
understanding level 5
Swallowing on cue as the 'wall' comes to
me, seeing roots , vines , surging..blissful feeling
numbness of some type in the body, sensing
people..the voices in the songs? wondering if
people will come and see me on Salvia (this
was an interuption)
One of the many scenes was like underwater,
surging vines mixing with the music pulse.
At another time I scanned my shrouded body
for disease.
At the end I stood up and streched, like a
flower opening to the sun, and felt level 3
effects like light visuals. I took a shower
in the afterglow.
