ACAcid For Squares Podcast guest Ryan Ashley shares how, during vision quests, she often encounters “machine elves,” beings with a mischievous, trickster-type energy.
Beings like these “machine elves” appear in the visionary lore of many cultures and traditions. In many Amazonian ayahuasca traditions, people describe spirit helpers, "Doctorcitos", or humorously playful entities encountered in deep states of consciousness. Indigenous Andean and Amazonian cultures honor feminine spirits such as Pachamama and other earth mothers as wise teachers and protectors. Concepts like Grandmother spirit, Gaia, and Sophia appear across spiritual and philosophical traditions as embodiments of wisdom, intuition, nurturing, and creation. In modern psychedelic and visionary experience reports, machine elf imagery is often described as intelligent, playful, and transformative.
What do you think these machine elf beings are? Have you ever had an encounter like this or felt guidance from a great feminine spirit?
