You know how seconds before rain there is a silence and everything stops? That's the start. An uncanny stillness, with a yawny feeling. Then, over time, the visual field flattens and the patterns start. There are no hallucinations as such, but the patterning (which has been much reproduced and would be familiar to you) becomes progressivey more intense. The odd thing is that this does not feel like something you are watching exactly. More like the normal distinction between subject (you) and object (everything else) is rendered obsolete. At the time this makes perfect intuitive sense and you might (I did) feel that you have been given a glimpse of a great secret. In short you are given a chemically induced religious vision. You become extremely concious of the different aspects of your feeling and motivation. It's a very interesting drug, and reasonably dangerous, and the danger is dose related.
Hope that helps. It must sound like I take it every day, but I don't think I've had any for 30 years.
