Visual: A pinwheel spinning
About: Passive, moved only by outside influence
Intention: To scare off predators with minimum effort

New Visual: A barking dog
Transform? Yes

Past Attitude: To surrender to attacks and only fight back if injured (reactive), not being proactive in scaring off potential danger. Maybe a waste of time? Have to assume the worse in people? (no evidence of malice)
New Attitude: There is a time for barking, you are setting a boundary and if they cross, you know they are enemies because they have not respected it. Don't wait to be injured, scare off the injury before it gets to you.

Result: Transformed (9 min)

Q1-2: Yes. Q3: (a) Yes. (b) Hesitancy (being block by 8 other holodynes). Barking dogs have always annoyed me. A can very easily imagine myself a cat, but a dog, particularly one that is pro-actively barking was so foreign to me that it took me 20 minutes to be able to imagine it. I actually got down on the floor and acted it out! This helped a lot surprisingly. Q4: Community - “What does that entail?” Setting boundaries and defending. “Yes”. In harmony – How does barking and biting make harmony? “Setting boundaries may involve initial conflict but will create respect so there won't be future conflict.

Q5: (a) Love me (b) Bark! Loud! Ferociously! Fearlessly!

Note: Strangely, after doing this tracking, barking dogs don't bother me anymore!


Discovery: When doing the visuals, if nothing comes, just wait in expectation. The higher the expectation, the more likely and quickly something will come up. Also, even if a visual is just barely sensible, that's OK, sometimes they aren't overwhelmingly obvious. Go with it anyway.
