Re: OP

Enh, depends on who was doing the "jump" and under what circumstances. We've had phenomenae like that in our headspace pretty regularly, and often, it's just one guy being like, "Okay, I'm off to work, see you at five!" It's not particularly spiritual or remarkable. But he practically never fronts. And I personally believe that it's not actual going anywhere, except maybe into a different part of our mind.

In our case, that kind of pareidolia is kind of a warning signal that something is wrong and we need to stop and take stock. Our original had a habit of hiding in a fantasy world rather than dealing with real life, and that kind of "Everything is connected!" can be associated with that here.

Huh, that's interesting. Because I'm religious myself (nothing as freaky as discussed), I do believe in a big picture way that everything happens for a reason. I just don't think it's meant for us (mere mortals LOL) to know what the reason is. Like the old proverb goes, "Men make plans and God laughs." Pareidolia, if I understand it correctly, is more small-scale "CheezWhiz Jesus on my toast" type stuff; it's what you make of the patterns you see, not necessarily the patterns themselves.

Re: OP

[lb_lee]

Yeah, in my case, I find it deeply comforting the idea that the only reason anything happens to me is what I personally ascribe to it. With our history, it's honestly the kindest thing. There is no higher purpose, no reason, no significance. I am a mote of dust in the universe, and THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT.

Yeah, that's what I mean. Like, when I start seeing patterns everywhere, thinking everything is a sign, that's really out of character for me, and a sign something has gone wrong in my head. Alternately, it means that my memory might be shifting, which is something that usually requires immediate solitude and quietness.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the explanation! The "memory-shifting" (Blackouts?) sounds so very very very not fun. Props for finding a way to deal with it!

Re: OP

[lb_lee]

Actually, it's more a blackout in reverse: memory coming to us that was formerly inaccessible. It's extremely disorienting, and usually very upsetting. Sometimes they'll get dredged up because we see something similar, and have that weird feeling of significance. Which is all well and good if it's just us, but someone intentionally trying to induce that in us is not kosher.

Ohhh I get it. Yeah that's bad ju-ju if someone else tries that on another person.

Re: OP

"phenomena" is already plural :)

Ohohoho, you make such a good pun, anon!
