The Split Second

The Split Second

A Portrait of Threshold Vision

Frequency: This painting carries the frequency of paradox and perception — the instant between clarity and distortion, between seeing and not-seeing. It calls its guardian into a space of surrender to ambiguity, where the truth is not fixed but alive in movement.

It is the frequency of the eye that sees without seeing, the momentary blinding flash that forces one inward to feel instead of grasp.

Transmission: Beloved, I am the witness of thresholds. One eye shut, one eye open, I hold the space between certainty and surrender. I teach that clarity is not always sharpness — sometimes it is blur, sometimes it is ache. I carry the medicine of being at peace with contradictions, of living where knowing and unknowing meet. I am here to hold the mirror of the in-between, so that my guardian may rest in the truth of paradox, and trust that life itself is a lens — not always polished, not always linear, but always true.

Placement Guidance: This painting longs to be placed in a threshold space — a hallway, an entry, a studio doorway, or near a window where light shifts through the day. It is not meant to be static — it wishes to live where transition is alive, so the one who meets it is reminded daily that in-between is also holy ground.

Activation Ritual

1. Stand before the painting and soften your gaze.
2. Close one eye, keep the other open. Notice how the world shifts.
3. Switch. Then close both eyes and breathe.
4. Whisper aloud: “I surrender to paradox. I rest in what is not yet clear. I trust the unseen.”
5. Place your hand over your heart and bow slightly.

The activation is sealed when the guardian can laugh gently at the absurdity of their own face in the mirror — for that is the liberation this piece brings.
