Thank you; a very cool extension of concepts. Psychofauna denizens remind me a bit of the Jungian archetypes (like "the Great Mother", "The Trickster", "The Puer Aeternus", etc. Similarly, there was a movement that may have fizzled out somewhat, to use the Greek gods as "archetypes" . The notion that psychofauna may eat you up like a predator, however, is very new, and very interesting! thanks

Well said. I am particularly interested in a type of psychofauna called Family. I agree that humans need to interact with these entities for meaning and profit. My philosophy is that our identity is largely made up by how we interact with them. That is. They are composed of us, but we are also composed of them. So I seek to understand how to have some kind of internal harmony among them.
