LIMINOLOGY

Liminology is a descriptive framework for the study and articulation of lived liminal experience.

It is concerned with states of transition, suspension, where experience is neither fixed nor fully formed. In such states, familiar structures loosen and experience is perceived differently. Liminology attends to how such states are recognised, endured, and named, without assuming outcome, resolution, or transformation.

Liminology does not function as a belief system, healing modality, or therapeutic method. It does not diagnose, treat, activate, or resolve experience. Its purpose is to provide language and orientation rather than instruction or authority.

The framework is interdisciplinary in nature and may sit alongside existing practices in writing, folklore, therapy, healing, and contemplative work, without replacing or superseding them.
