Disclaimer

Lumenism is a symbolic identity and growth system — not a clinical tool. This page clarifies what it is, and what it is not.

1. Symbolic System, Not Therapy

Lumenism is built as a poetic, pattern-based reflection system derived from Big Five trait data. It is intended for personal development, identity insight, and symbolic guidance only.

It does not provide psychological, psychiatric, or therapeutic services of any kind.

2. No Diagnostic Function

The Lumen Quiz, Collapse Arc, symbolic report, and associated tools are not diagnostic instruments. They are metaphoric reflections based on empirically-rooted traits — not clinical evaluations.

You are not being labeled. You are being mirrored — symbolically.

3. Personal Interpretation

All insights offered through the Lumenism platform are meant to provoke reflection, not provide fixed truth. You are responsible for how you engage with, interpret, or act upon any content provided.

4. No Guaranteed Outcomes

Every symbolic result or ritual is offered “as-is,” without warranties or guarantees. Growth depends on your presence, your willingness, and your integration — not on the tool alone.

Tools don’t transform you. Your relationship with them does.

5. Not Affiliated with Institutions

Lumenism is not affiliated with any clinical psychology body, healthcare system, or diagnostic authority. It expands on publicly available scientific models (IPIP-NEO) and adds symbolic interpretation.

6. Ownership & Responsibility

You access Lumenism voluntarily. By using the quiz, reading your report, or practicing rituals, you agree to do so at your own discretion — and take full responsibility for your interpretation and application.

7. If You Are in Crisis

Lumenism is not a crisis resource. If you are facing emotional distress, instability, or trauma, we urge you to seek support from licensed therapists, psychologists, or crisis professionals.
