===Variations===
The specific differences between each potential style of geometry can be broken down into the following variations:
*'''Intricate vs. simplistic''' - Geometry can either present itself as incomprehensibly intricate and complex in its appearance or simplistic, basic and comprehensible even at higher doses. For example, the geometry associated with [[dissociative]]s tends to be consistently overly simplistic in form while most psychedelics are significantly more intricate.

For example, the geometry associated with [[dissociative]]s tends to be consistently overly simplistic in form while most psychedelics are significantly more intricate.
*'''Algorithmic vs. abstract''' - Geometry can either appear to follow mathematical rules and logically consistent forms in its design (which often results in high amounts of fractals and semi-predictable shapes). In contrast to this, however, geometry can also be completely abstract or random in its appearance in a way that contains an infinite amount of completely unpredictable variety.

*'''Consistent vs. progressive''' - Geometry can be manifested as consistent and steady in its intensity, complexity and visibility regardless of disturbances within the external environment. In contrast, however, it can manifest as progressive in its intensity which means that disturbances and sensory input such as bright lights, loud noises and distractions within the external environment will prevent or cut off the intensity, complexity and visibility from building up to its limit whilst darkness will cause it to steadily rise in complexity.

*'''[[8A Geometry|Level 8A]] vs. [[8B Geometry|level 8B]]''' - At its eighth and highest level of experience, geometry is capable of branching off into two different directions of equal intensity. The first of these is [[8A Geometry|Level 8A – exposure to semantic concept network]] and the second of these is [[8B Geometry|Level 8B – exposure to the internal mechanics of consciousness]].</onlyinclude>
