Experience Description

May 24th, 2013 on a full moon, I was with a group of friends at a friend’s apartment and they were doing ketamine. I snorted some ketamine and was having a good time, when suddenly I was looking at one of my friends and his face began to pixilate and I noticed that what I was seeing was an illusion, that there was more behind the fabric of reality. I felt a sensation on the right side of my brain and I decided to ride the wave and closed my eyes to meditate. I had the feeling of coming out of my body out of the back-right of my head and reality ripping away. I sensed a presence to the rear right of me and I could see a winged creature with a dragon/lion-like face similar to those seen in Asian art and architecture. It was flying around, coming closer to me in the void I was floating in. I felt a strong energy and my brain was buzzing on the right side. It came close to me and landed on the right side of my head.

Suddenly I felt I was being sucked downwards, and I had the sensation of falling. I began coming over the crest of a waterfall and falling down, only the waterfall was made of thousands of nooses, turning and twirling around. I felt afraid, and took a large hit of tobacco to protect me. I was riding this river of nooses further and further down, with the winged creature still attached to me. After I hit the tobacco, a large snake with elements of fire took me as the waterfall ended and I watched it swirl down into a void, a black hole, and then there was nothing. The sensation was over and there was only darkness. I felt that I had failed to resist the creature and it now had me trapped in this void.

Later I had another vision of thousands of seeds, then they began falling from the sky, and the sound reverberated off the inside of my skull, sounding like heavy rain on a metal roof. Then I saw a plant sprout up, shrivel, and die. This was similar to a flower I saw on television, which grew and died repeatedly as a bright ovular globe spun extremely quickly in the background. After this seed vision I saw a painted mannequin head that I had made and used in ritual floating in a void with hundreds of green darts shooting out of the top of it. There was a female present who I believe to be very powerful psychically and possibly evil. We had sex a few days prior. We constructed a fort out of pillows and sheets to sit in, with a giant hula hoop at the entrance. She was sitting in this hoop, began moving her hands around in a magical manner, and playing with a quartz crystal. I saw her close her eyes and I felt energy come over me, so I closed my eyes and could feel it consuming me, a red fiery energy. I began to fight it off with my own energy, which is blue. The red energy was winning, and I averted my energy to become more of a shield, and cast it back, after which the red energy began to wane and I noticed her smug expression change to a wince and she opened her eyes.

After this whole ordeal, I found myself feeling empty, drained, depressed, suicidal as I had felt before in life. I had finally begun to ward off these demons and overcome them, feeling happy, clear, and powerful, but suddenly they were back.
