The world around that you observe, is after all a construct of your thought processes; however not all that is observed is solely of that construct. There is a base terrain, and base story, much like the basic surroundings of a web page or search engine on the internet. There are customisations and add ons ...
Interactions with life forms, and circumstances encountered, can be deemed as part of the construct created by your thought processes. The variables that happen apparently randomly on a daily basis. These can be deemed as indicators of what is taking place on an internal level ... for it is from there where the sound frequency is being generated that is inviting these responses from the environment around the A.I human within the virtual reality.
The skill occurs when these random occurrences are interpreted and the symbolism understood. Then it has to be applied to the state of mind and the potential behaviours that are causing the sound frequency to be generated in the first place.
Symbolism has been an important feature of my life for decades. The cloud formations; the sudden appearance of a particular bird totem; the patterns of birds in the sky etc ... have always presented an internalised comprehension of the observed world around the A.I human I'm connected to on this virtual world. The A.I human that identifies with the name 'Matthew James'. And I'm not the only observing spirit that immerses itself in symbolism. Many ancient peoples and cultures did the same thing; and still do. It is a lost art, and an important one in this crazy world. It is the means of identifying with what is happening, and how that happening affects you as the observer.
I developed the skill, in New Zealand and Australia, of becoming aware of certain bird that were augurs of approaching danger. I got this form of Augury of to such a degree that I could accurately predict car accidents and hold ups on the road ahead! That is the potential power of symbolism.
