Conscious Chess
Sort:
Hello 😊
I was wondering if there are any other chess players "curious" in the "chess phenomenon" of "non-verbal" (possible even "non-linear" "mechanism's" of "thinking") communication; and the possibility in the attempt to "consciusly communicate" "personal projections" of "Self" during a game of chess, as well as when "reading" a game of chess.
please let me know if this "question" makes sense? in my attempts to "ask this question", I feel like I tend to "loose myself" in the description... so it would mean so much to me if You could Help Guide Me in the direction I feel I'm pointing myself towards! 😄
Just to Share with You All: I am passionately(curious) in studying psychology(consciousness), and how the game of chess could be used as a tool for communication (by means of subjective projections).
The "Main Idea" about what I (personally) would like to try to communicate via a game of chess, is the message of Love (i.e. how can I "Show" My Mom, My Dad, My Brother, and All My Family, "How Much" I "Honestly" Love them). I have I) honestly and II) genuinely been noticing and observing this phenomenon within chess, and am curious in how I could possiblely "Utilize" this Phenomenon.
Thank You 😊 🙏
(I'ma pause here. Try and Collect my thoughts, and try again tomorrow 😊 for now, hope I made enough sense to spark up some conversations! 😄 😊 🙏 💚 Thank You!!! 😊)

At first I thought you were talking about some kind of telepathic method for psyching out your opponent, to help you win. Then it seemed like you are trying to put yourself into a peaceful or tranquil place mentally, so that you can focus better and play better. Still not really sure what you're on about. In chess itself you don't really communicate love to your opponent, more like threats, obstacles, subterfuge and destruction. I guess you can visualize love for your own pieces as you defend them? Everything we do has some psychology and emotion behind it, whether obvious or not... on that much at least we can agree.

Hello @TerrorEyes666 
Your observation has been the most accurate way to honestly describe what it is I am attempting to manifest!!! !!! "... put 'myself' into tranquil place mentally... focus better & play better." That is the main emphasis driving my wanting while playing chess. Also, Your "kind of telepathic method for psyching... opponent" also accurately describes what i noticed during a game i played recently (while at the @TemeculaChessClub on 6/04 for their free intro. class & casual play). But, I'm going to choose to interpret the experience of that game as "my opponent responding(either consciously or unconsciously) to my excitement in the game we were playing."
I too have noticed how the game has been "traditionally manifested"; giving rise to Why I'm playing chess how I'm playing. 
Visualization is Key!!! (Funny thing too, reality -according to science; at least my understanding so far- is like a continuous visual (and other senses; both Ours and Others) hallucination. This has been derived from a 'psychbio.' course i studied my most recent semester at 'institution'(college) <--- 
haha) And what "I have been Visualizing recently in All My Chess Games", is "Loving(Honest) Communication." Also, I've been noticing that My Life has Manifested Itself into something "Inexplicably" "Peaceful" <--- (@TerrorEyes666: "... put Yourself into a Peaceful Place, Mentally" <3 )
On this much, we can absolutly agree on! And Thank You for Your thoughts!!! Next time I am out and about, I'll be sure to have my jar of pennies!
Thank You! Take Care!

Hello @cottonsock
How do Your Games Look to You when you are no longer "unconscious"? I'm curious, inspired by games that I have played while "after having a few (420)" <--- Psychedelic Consciousness Reference.
Thank You for Your response!!!
Best of Luck in Your Game(s)! <3
