Hi Nexians,
I was idly browsing through the hyperspace lexicon and came across this:
"Hyperspace Jesters: Could also be called Harlequins or fools. They truly resemble medieval jesters and harlequins... however, they are not silly or foolish in any way. They tend to be hyper-intelligent and might be the male versions of the Flirty Fairies. They have a fundamentally different nature that they are trying to show off, though. They like to show you things... objects. Often flashing Hyperspace tarot cards at you which, on their own, can impart reams of information to you when you look at them."
During my most recent trip (which wasn't really that recent, but it was my most recent one), I distinctly recall coming across a group of jesters (8 or so) who were holding large cards which were turned around so I could only see the back face. In unison they all turned the cards around at exactly the same time so that I could see what was on the front....
Reading that bit from the hyperspace lexicon really threw me. Despite the seeming reality of hyperspace I've always been in the 'it's not real' camp, but the description from the lexicon of them 'flashing cards' has really got me turned around. This is absolutely exactly what I experienced. I can buy into the theory of entities being some kind of unconscious archetype, but for them to do such specific things that several of us experience... I dunno. It almost changes my mind about the reality of Hyperspace, which actually quite frightens me....
