intensity
+++ PLUS THREE — Strong and fully engaging — it can no longer be set aside, and you are completely absorbed in the experience, for better or worse.
intensity
++ PLUS TWO — Both the timing and the character are unmistakable, but you can still choose to let it stay in the background and carry on with ordinary activities.
intensity
± PLUS/MINUS — Threshold — something may be present, but it's right at the edge of perception. A stronger experience would confirm it; otherwise it may be nothing.
intensity
− MINUS — No noticeable effect.
Within a minute or two of smoking, closed-eye vision filled with slowly moving colored geometric line patterns, and the writer soon lost all ordinary sense of self in a flood of undifferentiated sensation, peaking within half an hour. Intense waves of emotion-laden imagery kept returning every several minutes for hours, with clearer thought in between. Around two hours a deeply moving encounter with his wife redefined their relationship in his mind; the waves ended by three to four hours, a mild influence lingered until about seven, and sleep was slow to come but restful.
