Just a follow up. Some weeks after the unusual "strobing" or "throbbing", I started to experience much expanded awareness, in that I can "see" things I couldn't see previously. Threads that were once not clear to me now present themselves in a picture tapestry, to use a metaphor (this is EXTREMELY difficult to describe, so I'm doing what I can to communicate it). I can see things about people, about their "stories", about my own "story", about events in the world around me, and so on. All I need to do is focus, and it becomes clear to me (and sometimes I see without even having to focus; I just look at something, and see the underlying patterns and design, or I look at a pattern and see the bigger picture).

Not sure it actually had anything to do with frankincense, though that oil is very much associated with spirituality, spiritual awakening, etc. Possibly, the use of frankincense was a symbolic catalyst. Certainly, I'm now seeing that pretty much everything is symbolic in one way or another (hard to explain that one; essentially, everything is a symbol, a thoughtform).

Pretty cool, anyway.
