Piercing the Veil

Entering the veil is an engagement with the unconscious. It is something mysterious, always beyond our control, and slightly beyond our reach. It can be permeable at times and impenetrable at others. The veil is illusive. It is there at once, and then in the next minute we are searching for it - reminding ourselves that it exists and trying to remember what it feels like. Being in the veil can feel strangely comfortable and familiar, like a long lost home one has found again in a dream. Other times the veil is confusing, disorienting, and perhaps even seductive when it takes the form of a web of illusion. These fluctuations occur because the veil is energy. It is alive, and like the unconscious it is vast, intelligent, and alien."
