Excellent post indeed, I got a lot out of that. I LOVE talking about psychedelics.
This was very insightful. This has tied together some thoughts and feelings that have been puzzling me for years. I initially got into entheogens in order to be a "psychonaut" (explorer of the mind) but then later realized I must "catch up" so to speak and become an explorer of the heart.
When I do get back into entheogens my initial experiences will be in the spirit of emotional cleansing and purging, but for now the plants and I have decided we need to hit the pause button on our relationship.
BTW Godwide have you worked with synaptolepis kirkii? It's a dream root from Africa. When taking it it feels like there is some spirit guiding my dreams!
Also cannabis does seem like an odd plant in the context of my spiritual development. It makes me paranoid like no tomorrow but I know it has helped me to some degree in the past. My understanding is that it has taught me all that it has to offer, and possibly vice versa.
On that note I think I will end the night with a big cup of Calea/smoke combo. Oneiromancy IS something I am emotionally prepared to handle.

After getting those out of the way, I have been able to pursue more "educational" matters, and much of the information revealed to me has been easily integrated.
