I'm all about the concepts you're presenting, but care to elaborate on how you think the corals relate?

Disclaimer: I am still finding my way in life, so take this theory with a grain of salt.

New age movement, claim everything on earth is actually a hologram of the universe, experiencing itself.

So perhaps, just being in close proximity with another coral, the hologram frequency was now more in tuned.

  • Since you mentioned you’re still finding your way in life: please be aware that the appeal of a lot of new age and „woo“ is that the act of noticing a pattern in nature, that feeling of „aaah NOW it makes sense“ is inherently pleasant and can become something you chase like a drug. These frameworks or schools of thought can provide a steady source of that feeling without necessarily being tethered to reality at all. Kind of like acid - very fun at times but catastrophic if you make it a core part of your identity.

    • Slightly Related: Beware any community which insists you show "loyalty" by doing things that burn-bridges so that nobody else will be your friend. Trapping you is how cults and abusive-relationships work.

  • Why would the frequency of the healthy one win over the frequency of the non-healthy one though? I assume both would have their own frequencies, are you implying there's an order or tendency across frequencies?

  • You might be interested in Catholic theology + philosophy. It takes a LOT of background, and a lot of time to accumulate it, but you clearly have some already, and once you get comfortable with reframing terms that have a lot of societal baggage attached to simpler, honest understandings (for example, God, as a sky dude vs the universe as a mind), you can go so far.
