    mine has always been month-day-color-shape-season corresponding, so thursday is orange, fall and 4×4, but not 4 itself, its 12 and 3 alone. this has changed, but rarely, some people are also different shapes, and depending on how much I like them/know them, their shape is changed

    Speaking on hallucinogens…I can clearly recall whenever doing lsd as a teenager & into my 20’s even, that whenever I would close my eyes I would see the coolest geometrical shapes with the most awesome color patterns & schemes etc.
    And I remember thinking how that if I only had some way of printing out the patterns/colors I was seeing, how that would make the most badass/coolest design for some clothing etc.
    Lol

    I never thought about this being “unusual” really until I watched this video.
    But take numbers for instance, I’ve always associated certain numbers with sort of a “good” or a “bad” connotation.
    Like the number 2 I’ve always felt like was kind of “bad.” Not like evil really. But just, bad.
    And 3 has always been “good.”
    For the most part tho, all even numbers are mostly “bad.”
    And pretty much all odd numbers were “good.”
    I’m sure now, after watching this video that there are probably others who have thought that way before.
    And there are other similarities relating to this video. But that one was the first one to come to mind. And the only one I’ll go into just for the sake of time etc.
    But thanks for the informal video!
    Really cool to have learned this bit of info! 🤜🏻💥🤛🏾

    I have Auditory-Olfactory Synesthesia!
    Everytime I hear someone farts I feel a bad smell…
    Believe me when I say this power doesn't make someone special 😉

    I don’t know if mine is considered synesthesia but I can smell infectious diseases, even before the host becomes aware of it.
    Their body scent changes and it’s always consistent from one person to another. When they get contagious, the smell gets so strong that I get headache from them.
    During recovery, the scent gets weaker until they completely recover. It has a lot to do with my nose and I don’t have to know the person to pick up the signs they’re getting ill too. Sometimes I just pass someone on a hike, and I can pick up that person is sick/weak due to an infectious disease.
    Anyways, I was always fascinated by synesthesia 😊

    I visualise music as color. its not quite something i see with my eyes. its that kind of image that you put in your mind like when you think of an apple except that its automatic i dont have to think, its just there. for example O Canada is orangeish to me.

    some music makes is more vivid that others, but the same types of timbre, or songs in the same key tend to produce similar colors. he key of C Major is yellow to me. A minor is light blue. although these colors can have variations depending on the timbre of the instruments, they tend to be similar in nature. D minor is some always some shade of green, usually a forest green

    as someone with synesthesia, it actually helps my remember sums but can make me forget and mix up stuff like when I was reading romeo and juliet for the first time their colours were red and blue but not the right way round so I constantly said the wrong one

    If you want to test yourself on color&sound synesthesia, the beginning of the song Drown by Atmosphere has really strong colors for me. Like, I see purple dots and one cyan.
