Chimerizing

#1 CHIMERA Embodying multiplicity, with the starting point of a system of three. The Chimera of Greek Mythology—a lion/goat/snake—teaches us that to be multiple is powerful, though it may result in being shunned by local farmers. We may chimerize our human bodies through somatic practices, which may allow us to relate more closely to the more-than-human; it is a specific sub-form of monstering.
