So how we're going to begin is you're going to sit comfortably,
However that means to you.
It could be legs crossed,
Could be sitting in a chair,
Whatever it is,
Sit somewhere comfortably that you feel relaxed and comfortable and you're going to close your eyes and you're going to take three deep breaths.
Deep breath in,
Count to four,
Deep breath out,
Count to four.
And each time you exhale you're going to try and relax your body a little bit further.
So you're going to inhale,
Pause,
Exhale,
Pause.
So as you're doing this and you're relaxing it's in those pauses between breaths where we're going to go.
That is where your creativity meets your imagination meets your subconscious.
So let's see what awaits you in the spaces between breaths.
You're sure you are running.
In this place between worlds your sense of self is fuzzy.
You are and yet you are not.
The universe here flows through you and you through it.
It is like being in a dream but if you look down you wouldn't be there and yet you can still look.
So how you are sure you are running is perhaps a deeper question.
However you have a sense of purpose which in this place creates an echo of forward movement.
It's like an idea that is not yet fully formed and if you reach for it it begins to become clear.
So what is the idea forming in your mind as you run toward it so desperately?
Its pull is tantalizing and every thought is gone from your mind leaving one singular focus to understand to know.
But knowledge can be dangerous and there is a fleeting part of you that voices caution above all else for in this place truth is far more than what it seems.
A shape begins to take form out of the darkness.
You can't see it so much as feel its weight like a black hole that consumes every thought,
Past,
Present and future.
You can just make it out.
It's too big to fit within your own imagination but you just begin to feel and see the outline of a great pyramid.
But this is not like anything you've seen before.
This one is inverted balancing on its point and extending into the infinity of the realm beyond time and space.
Just a glimpse of the wondrous power of this psychic gravity is enough to launch you to a different time and place.
Your past.
Key moments in your life flash before your eyes as childhood memories drift and blur together.
What do you see?
Who are you in these memories?
Who are you with?
Who do you want to be with?
Time flows forward leaving a feeling of acceleration and deceleration in the pit of your stomach.
Key moments in your life are so vivid you'd swear they are real.
Idly you notice that you are experiencing each memory individually and yet at the same time.
Like you're split into multiple versions of yourself each watching a different screen.
Eventually one by one these memories collapse into a single frame.
One screen.
A point in your life where your future hung balanced for a moment before you chose the path you are now on.
The path you are currently running on.
Was this where you were running to?
This path is through green woods lush with vitality and hope.
The air is fresh and humid and grass sways as you pass.
You crest a hill and animals of various shapes and sizes scatter in all directions as you fly past.
Tell me fair traveler what do you see?
Ahead there is a pond with perfectly still water.
It is so still it is unnatural and yet it beckons so wonderful you don't hesitate and dive right in.
The black pyramid flashes for a second and instead of cold wet water the pool.
Reality lurches and you find yourself falling through nothingness.
The great shape of the pyramid gleams as you fall.
Your tiny form silhouetted against its slick edges.
Down down you fall.
Flashes of light burst from the edge of the pyramid but are too fast for you to glean and what they might be showing you.
Finally one last blast of light bursts forth from the tip of the pyramid where it balances on a singularity and then you find yourself back where you started.
It is your present.
You are just you and yet you feel the weight of your memories churning and flowing with energy.
Every choice you have made from the moment you came into existence until this point in time has led to this time and this place.
In another universe it may have happened differently but here and now you have made it here.
Like a multi-dimensional mirror you see yourself without judgment without misalignment of your mind body and soul.
Like an inverted pyramid you balance these parts of you and in this perfect moment you begin to understand exactly what you are capable of.
The roof flies away and the walls the room you're in collapse away one by one as the floor fades away and you are left unchained to the boundaries of your normal reality.
In this state in this place you are free to drift on the winds of possibility.
A thousand futures lay before you each as possible as the next and all you have to do is choose.
Your hopes and dreams weave together forming a strand that points to a destination where future hopes and dreams give birth to new visions for your life and at the center of it the fate outline of an inverted pyramid balancing so delicately on a single point thus is the way of things past present and future mind body and soul.
With this realization a key turns in the lock and you see for a moment the pyramid in its full glory.
Sleek and smooth perfection it seems to represent everything and nothing all at the same time and you feel as if you could just reach out and touch it the power of the universe would be at your fingertips.
Slowly you extend your mind a psychic version of your arm in this place and then a single finger pointedly pauses for just a moment.
Are you ready?
Yes the pinprick touch of your finger leaves a small hole of white light in the otherwise perfect surface and for a moment all of time and space inhales and holds its breath.
Then you see it the tiniest crack propagating from the point of contact which suddenly grows and accelerates.
This crack branches and then branches again until a spiderweb of white light is propagating along the surface of the pyramid at an alarming rate.
The light grows brighter and brighter and with a gasp you look away closing your mind to truths too big for you to know at least not yet.
This world of color and dreams collapses around you as you fall back to your waking self but just as you do you have the intense sensation of being watched and it suddenly occurs to you that you have started something that cannot be undone.
You have been noticed.
The balance has shifted.
