The movement of consciousness continues to spiral counterclockwise, in a downward motion, escalating exponentially. This brings to mind the movement of the parachute jump in reverse. Instead of hitting the top then reaching 'free fall', we appear to be hitting bottom, Zero Point, then accelerate upward.
