In this kind of psychedelic experience, one finds oneself more or less
as a passenger, often landing in a reality depending on the conditions of the
set and setting, which, like any reality, is filled with actualities (stories,
events, characters, etc.). This level, where lasting interaction with the
experienced is rare, is referred to as Phase 1. Here, various events from the
past, future, realities, worlds, gods, and more can be observed, absorbed, and
experienced.

Psychonauts, akin to shamans, often refer to these realities as
„the worlds.“ There are well-described and less well-described
realities/worlds. Psychonautic reports and literature frequently mention five
to nine different worlds. Individuals typically assume the role of an observer
and explorer, thus not actively participating in the experience itself.

The stories and experiences of Phase 1 are still heavily influenced by
everyday reality, such as our religious beliefs, worldview, technical
understanding, cultural, and moral influences, etc.

Action possibilities are limited, constrained by the lingering nuances
of everyday life.

You can visit these worlds more or less passively during Phase 1.

• This means that everyday reality has not completely dissolved. It is still more significant than the comprehensive experience.

• Everyday consciousness does not yet find a corresponding position in the expanded consciousness. You don’t know exactly what to do with your freedom, and you stick to what you know.

• Many people change their lifestyle: meditation, healthy eating, closeness to nature, and a more conscious life are often the consequences.
