What You Can Learn From Whales, Mathematics, and Mushrooms

What if the universe speaks in rhythms, not sentences? What if whales aren’t just communicating, but composing? What if mushrooms don't give you visions, but language in a different key?

This post invites you into an idea that may change how you listen, how you speak, and how you think: language doesn't just describe the world. It shapes it.

From AI translations of sperm whale codas, to mathematical symmetries in psilocybin journeys, to metaphors that outlive their usefulness, a new grammar is emerging — one that doesn’t put humans at the centre, but in relation.

Let’s explore how language behaves when it slips the leash of ego and enters the field of resonance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is AI really decoding whale language now?
Not quite decoding. But something more interesting. AI is beginning to mirror the structure and emotional tone of whale vocalisations, not by translating them into English, but by detecting patterns we didn’t even know were there.

Q: What does this have to do with altered states or mushrooms?
Surprisingly, a lot. People describe DMT or psilocybin experiences as filled with structured, non-verbal communication. Rhythmic, geometrical, intentional. These aren’t random visions. They feel like languages without words.

Q: I’m not a scientist. Why does this matter to me?
Because how you listen affects how you live. If language isn't just what you say, but how you resonate, then every conversation, with a person, a pet, a place, becomes a chance to co-create reality.

Q: Are you saying whales are spiritual teachers?
Not quite. But they might be grammarians of another order. And if we listen closely, we may learn a new way of being, less about control, more about coherence.

Begin Listening Differently.
Not to decode. Not to explain. But to tune in. Whether you're working with AI, walking in nature, or waking from a dream, listen not for content, but for structure. Feel the shape of the signal. You'll find that the most meaningful conversations often happen without words.
