Socrates

Socrates is a black feline inhabitant of Psyche's domestic space, appearing as an ambient presence during late-night tarot broadcast sessions. The cat serves primarily as environmental detail and domestic reality check within the host's workspace.

Socrates appears in the archive record during "Psyche Awakens Tarot is live!" as part of the household fauna present during Psyche's late-night tarot streaming session. The cat's presence grounds the broadcast in domestic intimacy—a livestream conducted not from a studio or liminal space, but from a lived-in home where animals move through the frame and the host's attention. Socrates functions as a contextual element that humanizes the work: readings are being given while a cat exists in the room, suggesting that divination and the occult are being practiced not as rarefied ritual but as integrated into ordinary household life.

Socrates exists within Psyche's immediate sphere as a household familiar. No direct interactions with other archive figures are recorded, though the cat's presence implies a deeper relationship with the host that extends beyond the broadcast medium into her private domestic reality.
