Proviception

proviception (n.) /ˌproʊ.vɪˈsɛp.ʃən/ From Latin pro- ("forward, forth, on behalf of") + vidēre ("to see") + (capere, "to take, grasp"). Definition: The dynamic, reciprocal process of perceiving and reorienting oneself through the changing tensions between connection and constraint, holding and releasing. Awareness develops through an ongoing exchange between oneself and the world, so orientation is continually remade rather than settled in advance. Proviception arises in motion: past, present, and future are lived as a medium to move through, the perceiver is thus altered by what is perceived. (Note: used the assistance of claudeai to better clarify and consolidate the definition.)

1. "She takes his proviception to heart, because it never claims to know where the river goes."
2. "He trusts his proviception over any map; it tells him when to hold on and when to let go."
3. "She views grief as a proviception: every loss changes the ground she stands on, and she changes with it."
