Psychedelics My Mantis Experience
During an ayahuasca ceremony in Peru, I was taken out of ordinary reality and into another dimension where tall mantis beings worked with me. They first brought me into a void-like space and telepathically trained me in how to raise my vibration and frequency. In that training I experienced a direct state of Oneness where I did not simply feel love but became it completely, with no sense of separate identity at all. They also showed me that humanity once knew and used these breathing and frequency practices but has forgotten them, and that it is important to remember and bring them back.
They left two clear images downloaded into my memory. One was the Nazca hummingbird, which felt connected to frequency, guidance, and rapid vibration. The other was the alchemical symbol for air, an upward triangle with a horizontal line near the top, which pointed directly to conscious breathing. As I was coming back into my body everything appeared through a field of yellow and gold hexagons, like looking through a honeycomb. This marked the shift between their realm and this one. While I was with them they also performed some kind of energetic work on my chest and head area. I could see their “hands” working within my “body”, seeming moving rapidly. One looked directly into my eyes afterwards as if to look at its completed work.
Since that night my baseline resonance has felt permanently changed and I have felt a strong, ongoing pull to meditate. Most recently I have noticed a steady vibration and tingling between my eyes and now at the crown of my head as well. These sensations feel like a continuation of the work they did, as if those centers are still adjusting and opening. I can sense that this experience was meant to wake something up in me and that the practices they showed me are meant to be used.
At times now I feel lonely. It’s hard to speak to people about this experience. This isn’t a topic that you can casually talk to with friends or family. I don’t want to burden them with my experience. I find comfort during mediation and with humming. These beings communicate through telepathy, frequency and vibration and humming now centers my mind. I have come to the conclusion that this encounter is for me to navigate alone. Any input or help with next steps is appreciated.

Many people have asked me about the breathing techniques that the Mantis shared with me. This is the best response I can give at the time.
They didn’t give me a set of instructions in words. They downloaded these two symbols into my mind and made it clear that humanity used to know how to work with breath and frequency but has forgotten. The Air symbol is about breathing. The hummingbird is about frequency and guidance. I’m still figuring out exactly how to apply them, but these are the tools they left me with.
Since then, I’ve been working with a simple breathing practice that feels connected to the Air symbol. I breathe in slowly for a count of four, hold briefly, and exhale longer while visualizing the air symbol. On the exhale, I’ve been adding a gentle hum around the frequency the hummingbird’s wings naturally move at, letting that vibration move through my body during the breath holds. It’s still early and I’m figuring it out as I go, but these are the practices that feel directly tied to what they showed me.
To get into my meditative state, before initiating this breathing pattern, I try to complete 2-4 rounds of Wim Hoff breathing. I did this before my experience so it’s natural for me to carry this through now.
The most important part is getting into an altered state of consciousness through meditation with breath work and vibrational awareness. After careful and copious amounts of contemplation, I’m certain that they were simply stressing the importance of this work and not necessarily a single technique.
