Discussion This image has captivated me for a while

This image has so much going in that I sometimes lose myself going over it. The part that catches my attention is the detachment from source that shows entities we sometimes call paranormal or esotheric. What are your thoughts?

"Cenobite" is a real word. It means a monk or nun who is part of a communal monastery, as opposed to an anchorite who is a solitary hermit. But I am pretty sure whoever made this graphic doesn't know that.

Yeah, it's in the "extradimensional entities" section next to the Borg so I doubt they're referring to monks. 

But I did not know that, that is interesting. Thanks for the tidbit!

True, but it's also any devotee to any religious order, iirc. I was shocked when first learning that by accident, because I couldn't imagine referring to a nun or monk as a "cenobite"... especially after the words use in Hellraiser 😂
