Intro
a.m. Feb. 19, 2026:
Their forearms angles are isomorphic w/ L & R beams, and only slightly lower.
Adam’s forearms are offset same as the beams; his R arm (on the Left) is higher than his L arm (on the Right).
Elbows Are Out in Order to Match Tree
Tree has 4 branch limbs, Eve has 4 limbs.
Compare the black-box dual-rectangle human form, it is similar to the mushroom-tree’s form, because their elbows are out.

Each of the 4 Amanita branches points to a pair of limbs (arms, hands, fingers; legs, feet, toes), because that’s a concern within the medieval art genre of {mushroom-trees}: the concept of “pair of limbs, L & R”. So it makes sense to read:
Question: What does the branch point at?
Answer: A pair of limbs; left and right.
That answer fits with the concerns of the mushroom-tree artists:
{mushroom}, {branching}, {handedness}, and {stability} motifs.
The Egodeath Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism & Mytheme Analogy

the Egodeath Theory of Psychedelic Eternalism & Mytheme Analogy
epm
Compare the leaning-to-point mushrooms in f11 Day 4:

The Central, Middle Beam Is Assigned to “Left Branch”, via YI Form, Sweeping from Bottom Up
todo maybe: crop with box around Y on L incl. center beam; box around I beam on Right.
How the Artist Evolved and Developed the Standard Y-Under-Cap Form to Develop this Clever Offset-Beam YI Form
Figured out this POV / visualization of transformation on Feb. 19, 2026 (yesterday), wrote up now a.m. Feb. 19, 2026

- Start with standard extant form, two beams hold up cap crown.
- Insert YI form by:
Split the Left beam into 2 beams on the Left. - Pull the resulting right-hand beam from Left to Middle.
- Offset the L beam upward, to form a YI shape, as assessed by standard sweep from bottom to top.
On a tree, sweep from trunk to leaves (toward greater branching).
On a person’s arm, sweep from forearm to fingertips (toward greater branching).
Reference Dates
- Mar. 21, 2022 – Announced {branching-message mushroom trees}.
- Jul. 4, 2022 – YI morph’y of tree type: two branches hold up cap/crown.
- Feb. 9, 2023 – Decoded Jesus’ finger shapes, sticks, & feathers in Martin: Entry into Jerusalem.

Celebrate bringing together recent develop discoveries:
Series of Key Discoveries about the Fresco Image
2022/04/28 – Eve {stand on right foot}
April 28, 2022 – Eve stands on right foot. This involved me standing on my feet to confirm weight distribution.
2026/02/15 – YI Form of Offset Trident Beams
Feb. 15, 2026: recognized and figured out the trident offset problem: YI branching form under the main crown-cap – that solves the Huggins problem of 3 why 3 beams in that config? todo: find when i posted here, 2 days ago like Feb. 16, 2026, my discovery of the YI form of the —
I HAD BEEN PUZZLING, SINCE READING Huggins’ ARTICLE, OVER THE TRIDENT FORM, DIDN’T FIT the Egodeath theory / the Mytheme theory — IT IS NOT A TRIDENT – IT IS A YI FORM! <sarcasm>: I’m sure Huggins discusses the offset, which forms a YI form.
2026/02/18 – The Four Branches Point at the Four Pairs of Limbs of Adam & Eve
today: p.m. Feb. 18, 2026: The 4 branches point to the 4 sets of limbs, of Adam & Eve: the branching of his legs, his arms, her arms, her legs.
My previous speculations since 4/2022 of “why 4 branches?” for this image, did NOT map that way: I wrongly thought “a person has 2 arms and 2 legs” or more recently: “4 fingers”. No. Four PAIRS OF ARMS OR LEGS; a branch even touches Adam’s pair of legs.
The lower R branch is identified with the {stand on right foot} motif.
2026/02/18 – Wasson Presents a Fake Copy of the Fresco, Censoring the YI Form and {stand on right foot} Detail that Indicate Psychedelic Eternalism
p.m. Feb. 18, 2026: Realized that Wasson’s fake copy of fresco omits YI form and {stand on right foot}, the elements that prove this image depicts psychedelic eternalism and therefore certainly means Amanita.
I am grasping why Gordon . . . .🔍🧐🤔🤬 Wasson hired Bory to paint a copy of Plaincourault fresco: to omit indicators (at least that’s the resulting effect, THE RAMIFICATIONS OF BORY OMITTING THE OFFSET OF THE RAMIFICATIONS).
The censorship is built into her painting.
Wasson presents a FAKE painting of Plaincourault fresco in SOMA p. 181, with a DELIBERATELY CONFUSING CAPTION.
todo: transcribe the caption, check my 2006 article; see the 2-page photo in the present webpage.
Michelle Bory screws up, paints trident instead, & omits {stand on right foot} – she is an outsider, illiterate & blind to eternalism motifs in the medieval art genre of {mushroom-trees}.
1:00 p.m. Feb. 18, 2026: across from p 180, Wasson does not show Plaincourault fresco; shows degraded copy-painting that lacks YI & {stand on right foot}.
Preserve as-is, for History: wrote this 45 min. ago ie 3:30 Feb. 18, 2026
todo: Which painting is shown in book?
Soma: Divine Mushroom of Immortality, Gordon Wasson, 1968, https://www.amazon.com/Divine-Mushroom-Immortality-Gordon-Wasson/dp/B000MFKOJA/ & http://egodeath.com/WassonEdenTree.htm
If Wasson shows the degraded, inferior Bory copy, her corrupted version of the painting lacks the medieval art genre of {mushroom-trees} motifs THAT PROVE IT IS IN GENRE OF {branching-message mushroom trees} and therefore is mushroom (psychedelic eternalism).
Feb. 18, 2026 – Bory Moved Adam Away, so Mushroom Branch Doesn’t Touch Left Leg
Also at this time, articulated that the LEFT branch touches Adam’s LEFT leg, like the RIGHT branch touches Eve’s RIGHT leg.
AND ALSO WHILE UR AT IT MOVE ADAM AWAY [6:38 p.m. Feb. 18, 2026] SO the LOWER Left MUSHROOM — UH, I MEAN, PINE TREE BRANCH OR RATHER , A.N.E. SPECIES OF TREE (yeah, that’s the ticket!) — DOESN’T TOUCH HIS LEFT LEG
Wasson Con Theory
Pope taught Wasson the secret forbidden art-only knowledge of the Egodeath theory of psychedelic eternalism.
1998-2026, I am merely re-figuring out what Pope & Wasson knew: the Egodeath theory of psychedelic eternalism including the Mytheme theory.
Why the Church Allowed Mushrooms in Art But Not in Writings
[VOX_TK_6613,wav] – I made a voice recording with Zep 4 (levee breaks) background
I vocally mocked Deniers “it’s TOO HARD”
My Chris Bennett joke: he argues:
“Finding Cannabis is relatively easy; finding mushrooms is TOO HARD! 😭
“So, no mushroom imagery in Christian art.“
“You can’t explain why there would be mushrooms in art but not in text.” saarcasm: SO NEAR-IMPOSSIBLE TO FORM HYPOTH!
The church to an extent forbade writing theology assertions of no-free-will; the allowed art depictions of no-free-will (possibilism vs. eternalism) but not text published on this topic in writing explicitly.
wow that was so hard to answer the Deniers’ objection that:
“If there’s hundreds mushrooms in Christian art, but no mushrooms [debatable] in Christian text, then art doesn’t count, and you can’t explain why in art but not in text.”
[here comes their come-to-org’m payout:]
“So, not a mushroom. 😑”
Professional Propagandist Wasson Substitutes a Degraded, Copied Painting that Deletes the YI Branching Form and the {stand on right foot} Motif, Withholding the Actual Fresco Image

1:03 p.m. Feb. 18, 2026
Photo and annotations by Michael Hoffman.
Corrupt degraded painting copy that OMITS THE YI BRANCHING AND {STAND ON RIGHT FOOT} that proves this is a mushroom-tree meaning psychedelic eternalism.

I Realized Plaincourault Fresco Has YI Form at 6:45 p.m. Sunday, February 15, 2026
Found it: the timestamp announcement: it’s in my new, Huggins 2025 page:

Michael Hoffman, discovered at [6:45 p.m. Feb. 15, 2026]. That was near closing time at my in-house coffeehouse, last Sunday, 3 days ago.
Now[when wrote that note] 8:55 p.m. Feb. 15, 2026.
Now = Feb. 18, 2026
There is a possibility I wrote about the YI form previously – but I don’t recall that, and I am now experiencing this as a new realization I didn’t perceive before.
