When I did shrooms that time, I had been fasting, and must've had at least 7 grams. And I'm a lightweight (more flyweight, but you know what I am saying).
Got exceedingly nauseous. Held it together though, even though when I closed my eyes I kept seeing insanely fast machinery (machine elves LOL). And every time I looked at something with words, letters started transposing themselves.
Then, outta nowhere, I got way calmer, and I'm pretty sure I saw the ether. It's almost like it breathes or something. Maybe the aether/ether is conscious, who knows? It was like white gossamer that overlaid everything.
Then also out of nowhere I figured that there was a logical order to the planets. I can't fully explicate it right now, but it has to do with the Sun as a representation of God, with Mercury (truth) and Venus (love) being the two things that God holds most closely.
And Earth is just an admixture of the two. Venus spins the opposite way than the other planets perhaps to emphasize the female nature of the planet vs. the others. Or it could be because love, especially sexual love, kind of runs in opposition to logic. Almost just heart vs. head thinking.
And love leads to war. Look at Helen of Troy LOL. So Mars is either there to provoke or contain it. In any case, Jupiter still is there to oversee things and maintain the desired order.
Saturn rules over death and time. Think about carbon with its six protons, electrons, and neutrons. 6 is the number of nature/the physical, which is why Saturn is the sixth planet. All carbon-based lifeforms die. The last three planets represent the change from the physical to the non-physical afterlife. Besides some obvious funniness with Uranus, I do think that Pluto's removal from the planets is interesting. Like death is losing it's power. And really, death has no power, because we are eternal.
Now, I've only done astral projection once, but I think one lesson I learned is that just because you are non-physical, it hardly means that you no longer experience the physical. Actually, it seems quite the contrary. The feel of gliding through space is pretty sweet, not gonna lie. It's slightly cool, and honestly feels like being the Silver Surfer.
I'll stop there I guess. As for the Hidden Hand thing...I generally read things until I find something which runs counter to what I consider the truth. I then try to consider why the messenger has that part screwed up, and it's usually something innate to them. Not to say I have all the answers, mind you. But I just know when shit doesn't sound right.
I’ve been intrigued by the idea of “planetary” scale consciousness for a long time. The ideas of Jung and his elaborators in the form of “the Collective Unconscious” which gets taken seriously to varying degrees in the mainstream, but mostly dismissed beyond its “allegorical” value. So the idea being an epi-consciousness that emerges out of the summation of consciousness present on a given planet.
In a similar vein is taking that “emergent” consciousness and instead of regarding it as the result of its sub-constituents, you regard it as the source of its sub parts. So the idea of Ares/Mars giving rise to and being embodied by a warlike people, or Venus being embodied by a people that value beauty, or Wisdom, or the other Divine Virtues. This idea treats these Virtues as living entities, basically.
I think, like most things, the answer isn’t either/or but both/and. On that note I’ll link you to a really short “story” that I think bears on this subject in a really interesting way:
Just to clarify (there is other background information you could know, relavent to this “story”) the “dark dust” is dark matter, so the story is basically attempting to give a plausible mechanism to the idea of “planetary” (the Nine being the nine great bodies of the solar system) consciousness
On another note, the fungi has a way of telling us things are possible which may not ever occur to our “normal” state of consciousness. I think society would improve immensely if we brought back “coming of age rituals” involving the various sacred substances
And I would posit that occurrences of synchronicity are signposts that you are on the right track. Almost like an in-game easter egg. And perhaps similarly, the good easter eggs in video games are sometimes hard to find.
I should probably read more Jung in that regard, but I have a feeling for the most part I know what is going on...
I'm not well read philosophically, but another realization that I had is that everything is a paradox, virtually.
I even explained it to my mom like this...Everything we know is 100% and 100% false. Does that mean reality is an illusion or a trick? That's what "The Matrix" proponents want people to think.
But a far better way to think of it is like this...People spend a good chunk of their lives trying to be like other people. In a way, they aren't 100% "real", they are playacting. At the core of it, most people don't actually want to be other people though. Like if you reincarnated, you might want to be someone else, but really, at least from my end, you wouldn't want to lose who you are (this may go back to Adam and Eve and the origins or pride/narcissism). So is the world a play, a stage, a story, a morality test, or a game? The correct answer is both/and LOL. With free will allowing you to make of it what you will.
The beauty of life and the impermanence of death are rather reassuring imo. :)

Your comment here made that come to mind, one of my favorites, I hope you get some enjoyment out of it (headphones/good speakers help! Lots of subtleties in these tunes)
I want to make you a good reply, to your assortment of comments since yesterday, so I’ll try and get back to this before lunch!
Listening now, with appropriate "circumstances". LOL
Try this on for size...I recommend you watch the opening like two minutes. Really sick. I only found that video last week, and my brother (a drummer/percussionist) loves it.
Oh, and those subtitles for Uranus and Neptune from the video (the magician, the mystic) go well with the transition to the non-physical.
Man, how close are the words subtitles and subtleties? LOL Too funny.
Oh yeah, that pattern you came up with is ancient knowledge - which is what (to me) indicates its divine truth - if each of us can produce these truths within ourselves (given the right push) then that implies to me a universal wellspring which we are all capable of tapping into, so-to-speak. I’ve seen this given labels like “akashic record”, “collective unconsciousness”, “morphic resonance” - it seems like we all know these things to be true, but have trouble agreeing on the “terminology” lol
