#Imposition

[funeral--pyre]

Being a system practicing projection and/or imposition is so funny because why is there a reshiram standing over me in the kitchen? Why is Tomura Shigaraki standing ominously in the doorway? Why is there a dragon on my bed?

Blog Introduction!

Hello, welcome to our blog! We're a mixed origin (primarily endogenic) system of 13 that's decided to give separation a try. We're bodily male and 24. We've decided to treat this kind of like a journal for our progress towards mastering many different areas of plural experiences, such as:

True Imposition / Prophantasia

Complete separation (our own memories, mastering dissociative control / barriers or at least finding our limits, ending unintentional blending, etc.)

Expanding mindscape experiences

I guess meditation? Not necessarily a plural experience but would absolutely help. Same with lucid dreaming.

Our goal is to completely separate our experiences so that we can have more privacy and less distress and confusion in our day to day life. Others might benefit from our journey, so hopefully this blog can be more of use.

The masterdoc on separation I've created will be pinned here as well:

Unless stated otherwise, 9/10 it'll be myself (Zenith) posting on this blog. Nevertheless, here are our names!

We're trying to give back to the community that's helped us so much, so if you have any questions, don't hesitate to send in an ask!

The pain in-system relationships bring

I have a lover inside. I have an in-system relationship and I love my boyfriend to the death. There are pros and cons to every relationship type, let it be up-close far distance or in-system, I don't think it is fair to compare them but our mind still does. And it still hurts. I used to think I overcame that, but due to a recent turn of events I realized how much we don't get to have. Every single day I am reminded of just the sheer amount of how much we can't have.

When I am on the bus and I see a couple holding hands, whispering things to each other, giggling together... People asking them, them just being at places together, kissing each other, people acknowledging their relatitonship. Them going on dates, or just living in their life as usual, doing chores and playing games competitively, or just casual bantering, showering together.

Or the concept of sex itself. One can argue you can do all or some those with your in-sys partner too, but, it is not the same way. It is not to the same extent. It does not feel the same, It feels less to me. I know it shouldn't, maybe, but we cannot control our feelings. It is different, it is valid, yes, and I tear up as I speak but I cannot for the life of me get this painful throbbing heart to stop thinking every moment of "what if my boyfriend had an external body".

I grieve, I am yet to finish grieving. We are on our 2nd year of dating and I am still grieving with stops and breaks in-between. How long will this grief last?

I think to myself, and my boyfriend too, he says to me; yes, we will never be able to physically hold each other. Yes, we will never have sex like other people, ours may just stay as an imitation and imposition of sorts and that's it. Yes, that may not be enough for our bodily needs and that is something we can resolve with other things. The important thing is we will resolve. It is okay to grieve. It is okay to wish for the impossible. But time will heal it.

It has to heal it.

We can focus on what we do have. An endless possibility of dates to be scheduled, our real bodies (not the human ones!) being inside and being able to interact with each other. Always having each other close, so up close that you can even read other's mind sometimes. Arguments almost never being a thing because you know how they feel the way they breathe the way they talk. Loving yourself means loving him, too.

I think to myself, this heart I have beats for people more than one. It beats the same time for both me and him. It beats, beats, beats, until we die. Until we both draw our last breath. When we live we will always be together and live together, when we die we will die together.

Thinking of what could've been possible if I had him physically is a tunnel with no light at the end of it. The only light that is possible is the light of death.

Maybe, just maybe after all those, there is an afterlife where we get to have our own seperate bodies and live our love to the fullest. I never believed in spirituality, but I wish to be proven wrong so badly on this. I hope some deity hears my plea and gives me just one chance, one singular chance to hug my beloved and inhale his scent all the way.

Maybe if we love hard enough in this life, it can exceed physical realm's chains and feel each other more than anyone else.

I stay in this relationship because our love exceeds the enormous amount of pain it brings. And I don't regret any moment of that.

that take about hallucinations and dissociation being something no one should want: *exists*

us, a collective who does imposition*: really? :O

*not sure if that's the word, but it's when you uh, basically like, project your image externally so you get the impression that a headmate in co-con/co-front is, for example standing beside the body. that's probably horribly explained lol

Yup! That's imposition!

It's really fun to play around with too!

I think tactile has been my favorite. (And seems the easiest.) When I'm not fronting, it's fun to run an (imposed) finger across the body to see how my host reacts!

Imposition is a wonderful, beautiful thing and more systems should try it if they haven't!

[edensear]

What do you mean I can hallucinate whatever I want…

This is not talked about enough. I’m surprised so many people know nothing about this. You can literally train your brain to hallucinate whatever you want in a month or two. Maybe even feel or hear things too. Yes it’s giving schizophrenia but there are some people who have managed to do it without going insane.

I low-key want to try it.. but I have too much to lose. I’ll do it when I’m old as fuck and life is boring as fuck. If this topic interests you watch this video on it:

Also if you are someone who can do this please comment, I would love to learn about your experience.

Hello! Sorry if this is a weird blog to ask, but we really enjoy your blog and we don’t really follow many blogs in general (a social anxiety thing ^^;)

Do you happen to know any good resources/information about projection? Pluralpedia defines projection as “When a system experiences having a headmate appear outside of their physical body.” and says “This can be voluntary or involuntary, and it may be done by certain thoughtforms to help with creation.”

We’ve had experiences with projection since we were younger (around preteen age, maybe a little before) but we’ve never really known how to talk about it. We’ve dealt with it in a plural and non-plural manner, we’ve actually had way more instances of it being non-system related but we’re kinda hoping this ask can push us in the right direction!

(We know your pinned says that you don’t do any diagnosing stuff, so we wanted to make sure to add that that’s not what we’re looking for! We’re trying to find resources :].)

Thanks for any info you can provide! We’re very new to projection as a label

Hiya! Our system doesn’t know much about projection… so sorry about this!! >_<

We believe that projection is a common practice for those who are practitioners of paromancy and daemonism! So we’ll go ahead and link some resources from some daemonism and paromancy sites!

(We do believe that projection is sometimes also referred to as “imposition,” where a headmate’s physical form is “imposed” on the outside world. So we’re including resources that use both of these terms! If they actually mean two different things, we’re sorry for mixing them up!! >_<”)

We hope one of these links might have some information that’s useful for you!! I’m really sorry that we couldn’t provide better resources or assistance here >_<

If anyone sees this who knows of some good resources on projection, sharing them would be amazing!! Thank you so much!! :3

One thing I've always wanted since I got into hypnosis in middle school is to be hypnotized to see myself as some sort of furry creature (and as of 2020, to see myself as my fursona, my dragon!). And while I don't see that happening for me anytime soon, one way I like to live that dream vicariously is through some of my subjects.

There's a decent amount of subjects out there who have imposition/phantom touch so it's always lovely to give them attention, pets, cuddles, all that stuff. Sometimes I'll have them feel me purr. But there are a few subjects out there who are able to not only feel but see things with hypnosis too, and that's where I have the most fun, because I'll just have them see my fursona like I'm right there!

She looks like this, by the way:

Gosh, the sheer amount of things I do with those kind of subjects, I wouldn't be able to list them all. But definitely lots of cuddles, wrapping them up in my tail, having them feel me purr against them, telling them about my lavender scent and how calming it is. With one subject, I'll often snuggle with him while we're vibing in a call, sit on his lap or have him sit on mine. Haha, there was a time where he was having trouble going to bed consistently so I'd have my dragon self drag him to bed at a certain time each night (and I still do it once in a while when he's stubborn). I like to joke about the fact that my sona's basically a big cat inside of a dragon's body so sometimes I'll lick the top of people's heads like I'm a momma cat. I've been experimenting with biting and choking people with my tail as well. Lotta paw worshipping. Like a loooott lol. Spiral eyes as well, and lately I've given my sona a lavender mist she can breathe out that's super hypnotic. It's great honestly. Oh and lots of more not-safe-for-Tumblr stuff as well, you can bet haha.

It's also honestly helped a lot with my gender expression! It took me a while to come up with the form I express myself as now, but I was able to experiment a lot because a couple of close subjects were able to see my sona in whatever way I wanted present her as! Idk if it'd be a good idea to post the NSFT ref sheet on here but she's a gynomorph, I believe? Think a male body but with breasts, and you can use whatever the term for that is.

I am like suuuper jealous of those friends who are able to see my ideal self so easily, haha, but at the same time it's really nice because they talk about how calming it is for them and it helps them feel a lot happier. (and if they don't outright say it, I can definitely see it!)

but yeah, I just wanted to put that out there into the wild, it's pretty cool. :3

Tips and tricks: smell imposition from memory

Releasing early upon request!

Your sense of smell is tied to your memory, so you are more likely to remember something if you think of or are reminded of a particular fragrance or odor. But I found the reverse can be applied to recreate a scent!

I recommend finding something with an intense odor to make it easier to recall. Hopefully it's a pleasant smell, like a perfume, scented oil, or candle. But strong unpleasant odors like the litter box, trash left out in the sun, or microwaved fish work too.

After your good or bad life decision, think about the smell as if it was there in front of you. You may be surprised! Sometimes closing your eyes and focusing on the mental picture of the memory can help too.

After that, you can gradually build from there. Try other strong smells first, then normal smells, and then weaker smells.

Above all, practice in general will increase your overall skills. Just try to avoid getting caught resting your nose on something unexpected like cardboard boxes or metal jewelry!

Fun but simple and subtle everyday ways to interact with your tulpas:

- bid them good morning when you wake up and bid them goodnight at bedtime.

- hold the door open just a bit longer than you normally would when you pass through, to give them time to come through too.

- now and then throughout the day, think or say to yourself "Hey, where's my tulpa?", and see if you can perceive their presence and where they are in relation to you.

- hold your hand out by your side as you walk, and see if you can percieve them holding your hand.

- imagine them as you go about some mundane everyday task, and picture them helping out or doing the same thing.

Feel free to reblog and add your own ideas!!

Been practicing imposition. Just kissed host with tongue. 😛

Updates and Cool Stuff (Meditation, Curing Aphantasia, Web of Skills)

Alright, it's been awhile since we've updated this blog, and I'd like to talk about a few interesting things we've come across. As well as talk about one part of my plan to change our plural experience for the better.

MEDITATION

First things first, we've been meditating every day for an hour, but we've pumped it up to two hours a day since 2/10. It'll go to three hours starting on MAR10 DAY, then so on until we get to 6 hours a day. I'm not sure what we'll do at that point, the amount of progress this has the potential to yield is motivating. Dullness is something to take into account, fortunately there's four different meditation types we can do (Fire Kasina, Normal Kasina, TMI, using the Kasina Mind Machine we got in 2019...), so it shouldn't be too bad. Plus, we're going for longer on the weekends. Yesterday we went for THREE HOURS STRAIGHT. That was an accomplishment for someone who couldn't do even 30 minutes last September. We've moved from Fire Kasina as the main method to non-fire. It's better for prophantasaia/imposition training because you're relying more on the mind rather than a burned in afterimage. And what better object to use as a kasina than our fronting indicators. They have personal meaning, and they're simple: just a solid colored wristband. Maybe I should use the plural rings as another object... Anyways, we've also decided to limit substance use for awhile as well. Cannabis and shrooms aren't as dangerous as some of the other things we take, but they need to be limited as well. I'll still microdose and use kratom since those have pretty big utility, but only for meditation purposes. All cannabis, DXM (probably forever), and large dose shroom trips are over and done with for the time being.

CURING APHANTASIA

I've noticed a substantial amount of plurals have aphantasia. The system I work with at my job also has this. Now, this isn't something everyone would want, but I wanted to talk about a hidden gem on reddit we've found called r/CureAphantasia. These people have, you guessed it, not only "cured" their aphantasia, but are also running a pretty active and informative discord helping others with the condition visualize consistently! There's even other systems in there (though when I introduced myself, they casted skepticism about it, so possible tw for fakeclaiming I guess?) Now, I have hyperphantasia, so I can't speak from a perspective of someone who's aphantasiac, but the exercises they have still strengthened my abilities. One of their methods that really caught my eye was Autogogia. This is boiled down to the ability to lucid dream while fully awake. I can see this method having connections to going to mindscape or reality shifting. I'm not in the shifting community, but it seems like they use the same concepts that we're trying to reproduce. I'll post a link to the mod of the discord's documentation on how they cured their aphantasia below:

WEB OF SKILLS

This is something that we came up with a while ago to help us change our life for the better. It's basically a plan to master many different skills and hobbies, which will improve quality of life for us drastically. Yeah, this isn't a new concept, but it's something I came up with. I took a skill I really want to learn, and tried to find other skills and hobbies that would compliment the main skill. At the center of our web is Prophantasia, with the other skills surrounding it being:

Weightlifting (exercise and bulking up will be good for life in general, as well as helping with mindset.)

Headmate Separation (building dissociative barriers, full switching, concealing thoughts we don't want out)

Art and Animation (I've been wanting to draw ourselves and our mindscape for so long now... I dream of someday making animations of our adventures in there. It's such a beautiful place. There's not enough art of wonderlands out there!!! It'll definitely help with visualization development. The thing is, we have almost ZERO experience with drawing, so it'll be a journey...)

Story writing (helps with generating scenarios in mindscape)

Lucid Dreaming (this is a big one. If we were to start lucid dreaming every night... the possibilities are endless. We've been trying to learn on and off for the past 10 years now. But what's different this time is the meditation compounding efforts, as well as being CONSISTENT. Doing it on and off is not the way to go.)

Nutrition (helps out weightlifting and is a great life skill to learn)

I'll be honest, we started working on a lot of this when Trump took office. That really lit a fire under my ass. This bullshit, fuckass administration is hellbent on not only destroying our rights and America as a whole, but also the world. What they're doing will have serious, serious repercussions for world peace. I can already see China and Russia doing some stupid shit in the coming years. So we decided that it's now or never to proceed with all of this. This whole journey is a marathon, not a sprint, but with every passing day and every new news article, it feels more like a sprint. Hopefully this all makes sense. Until next time, goodbye!

Soul: Y'know what, fucking catscratch my last post, this is much more substantial

I can see my hornnns. They curve upwards and front, like bull horns, I can see it from the front corner of my eye. It's fun to have two long battering arms right in the front of your head, I wish I had the ability to use them without hurting myself.

In fact, I can see the rest of my body pretty clearly. I was changing my clothes and I could see my frame perfectly- I'm kinda lanky, but all amalagous kinda are. I'm surprisingly more muscular than I thought I would be, my human form isn't so strong so I thought I would be weaker, but I still retain my "normal" muscle mass.

And I can see my mate. He's out of view now, but we were able to talk earlier and he could even pet my mane. We talk every day so it's not like we weren't together, I just missed seeing him lol

[sophieinwonderland]

Okay, this was hilarious to me as I watched it happen. So, headmate projection. Why am I sharing it with you instead of posting it on our account? No idea.

Context is two residents were bantering (playfully) and one of them is new, the other isn't. The one who's been here for awhile is known for his sass, right? Like no one has ever outsassed him so far. Then this new guy shows up Today, and completely obliterates him when bantering.

❄️: Alright, I've just about had it with you. Cash me ousside- *turns around to walk outside while speaking*

❄️:

The New Guy, projecting himself outside: Bet.

❄️:

❄️: *slowly looks up*

The body: *is 5ft1"*

The New Guy towering over us: *is 7ft10"*

❄️: Did I say that? I meant we should like, have a picnic. You know?

The New Guy:

❄️: I have tea. *gestures very Calmly to steaming cup of chocolate tea he had prepared while bantering with New Guy*

The New Guy:

The New Guy: okay.

👑 (Me): *crying with laughter*
