DARKNESS & DANCING... navigating & discerning reality... affective psychology, social cognition, neuroscience... the intersection of depth and looniness, colorful conversation... Thelema; mysticism & spirituality... reaching the oceanic feel in social and non-social settings; extreme experience; testing my physicality... science fiction... lofty words and rich ideas... the paranormal, Night, (lucid) dreams, angels and demons... CONTRITION
POWER versus VULNERABILITY
I'd like to meet:
Eccentric people with purple souls, purpose, brilliance, and incisive senses of humor... who forever play with rich ideas about anything and everything. Occultists, artists, intellectuals, saints & metamorphosing sinners. // Also, I'm discovering that while I'm impressed by grave boundary bearers, I cherish and practice openness, open-mindedness, and tolerance (elitists make me laugh or yawn, and egg shells slice my feet but make them stomp).
