Terminology of the Inner Multiverse, paracosm and inner world related

Greetings everyone, 

My name is Martha. I have a wholely different writing style to those of my fellow system mates. That is because of my cultural positioning, if you will. I identify as a British citizen, though if I were to attempt to tell the British this, they would likely have the body committed to a psychological institution post haste. So, I stay active within my system and try not to get in the way. Today, I will be discussing terminology of the inner multiverse. First, what is the inner multiverse? You have seen this term both in the title, and in the first paragraph of writing. 

The inner multiverse is the system-coined term which describes the sum total of all our inner worlds, mindscapes, paracosms, paraverses, and anything else we have decided to connect. Second, what are inner worlds, mindscapes, paracosms, or any of those other terms? 

A mindscape is defined in the featured snippits of google as: A mental or psychological scene or area of the imagination. This very basic definition holds true for most of these terms. 

 Another term which can apply when talking about inner multiverses is headspace, which is defined as a person's state of mind or mindset. This is not often the definition which systems and the plurality community in general uses it. A headspace is quite similar to a mindscape, save that due to the use of the word head in headspace, people often think of this state as being quite literally inside of your head. This can sometimes hinder the creation of mindscapes or paracosms, if that is what your goals entail. 

Due to the fact that the term headspace may hinder the creation of these worlds or spaces within the imagination, the term paracosm was coined. The following page discusses origins of the word paracosm if anyone is interested.

A paracosm is defined as an invented world. The practice of having paracosms is called being paracosmic. I will release more literature regarding paracosms, as Kayla tells me it is a large reason for this blog. The following page discusses the pros of having a paracosm, in an almost salesmanly way.

This page discusses paracosms from a slightly more scientific viewpoint.

The term paraverse is used to describe an inner universe full of paracosms. 

The terms inner world and wonderland can be used interchangeably. Each means a world within a system in which system mates spend time. The Cadence Collective has several wonderlands along with several paraverses and paracosms. Some systems have a goal of creating wonderlands or inner worlds, but can't do it. The following resources may assist with that. 

The following link is what appears to be a guide forum from the tulpamancy site. Though this information comes from a site on willfully creating plurality, the tips and tricks within can help.

The following link is to a basic wonderlanding guide from Wondrous Fairy. They are a collective with several rich inner worlds or paracosms.

This is another link from Wondrous Fairy, discussing more inner world tips.

For those who have difficulty immersing in their inner worlds, or want tips and tricks on how to improve for the sake of your system, the following link discusses immersion in the inner worlds.

For those with multiple paracosms or inner worlds, or multiple paraverses, this next link leads to a page which discusses managing multiple worlds.

That's it for today's post, next will be paracosm and paraverse reviews for a few of our more active paracosms, along with meet the system mates posts for a few people in the near future.

Updates and Housekeeping

Hello all, It's Kayla again, back again with another blog post. THis one is pretty basic, no heavy or deep content for this post. Apologies for that, but it's been a while and I felt we should probably make sure our readers had an updated list of sites to find our content. We have recently had some extreme household changes, and that has opened the doors to allow us to create more, as we have more energy to spare on ourselves. Self care has been, in complete honesty, very difficult over the past few years, but I feel like there's a light at the end of the tunnel now.  What follows is a list of links to various content pages, starting with our LinkTree, which has all the important pages on it and should allow readers and eventually listeners, once we start the podcast, to find things a bit easier than trying to navigate through blog posts.  The link to the linkTree is as follows.  https://linktr.ee/cadence022 As always, our Mastodon page is open for readers and those who are

A small overview of system roles

Greetings everyone,  It's Kayla again, coming back to you today with a post about various types of system roles. This page is an overview, more information will be linked below in the resources section, and more posts will be posted on the blog regarding more in-depth information on each of these, so make sure to check back if you're interested in that series.  In the interest of giving credit where credit is due, the following definitions were generated by AI before being edited for accuracy and added upon to more thoroughly capture our experience of multiplicity. We did this both in an effort to get as unbiased a perspective as possible, and also to use as an example in a future blog post.  Definitions Host - The alter who fronts (interacts with the outside world) the most and considers themselves the "main one" or core identity. The host keeps daily life running smoothly by managing responsibilities. I, Kayla, am the host of this collective. The origin/core ideolog

Functional Multiplicity

In our last few posts, we have gone into fusion, blending, and integration. See the posts from th epast two days for more details. Today, we're going to start the discussion pertaining to the last path of healing a plural or system can take should they choose to do so. This path is commonly known as functional multiplicity.  Functional multiplicity is defined as the ability to remain stable according to normal ranges of stability for your particular system, while still remaining plural. This is, in essence, the opposite of integration, as nobody is fused into anyone else unless they choose to be. Nobody is forced to leave the system, in fact often times if functional multiples allow it, they may receive more system members just from their meditations and visualizations, which we will go into later. Functional multiplicity involves things like being able to communicate with your system, having coping mechanisms in place for when you need them, and doing the things necessary for you
