Yeah, perhaps the main difference between awakening and disassociation is the level of embodiment. Awakening should be deeply embodied

More to it than that, I think. Different levels of resolution feel more organic than that.
Ordinary embodiment is quite distinct from... metaembodiment?
Holding both this quality of nearness and distance in consciousness at once produces profoundly odd, symbolical sensation.

I also think that's one of the key crossings between meditation and magic. Weaving egregorical embryos out of basic sensory experience.

Everyone does. It's just most people use only the pre-installed codecs.
Nothing wrong with that, though. It's usually the safer (& saner) option.

I don't think even the "weavers" really understand how they are being weaved.

This would be my main reason for not hanging out in that space much.
Not big on the latent symbolism of the collective (un)conscious.
Lots of creepy shit out there, ready to be absorbed.

I definitely like to look at Jungian type images and explore my reactions to them. But to ever think that you are the master weaver is delusion, imo

I'm not sure what that's even supposed to mean or be, tbh. Master whut now?
Inter- and intrasubjectivity are both slippery, half-baked and malleable idea spaces.
Who is 'you', for instance? Such a basic question, but infinitely pliable & contradictory.

Well, that process is basically autogenic. Just a layer of semantics on top of everything.
The metaphor is just about what the process does. Questions of doership a bit redundant.
Would you say you create the smells you smell? Same difference.
