Liminality (from the Latin word lîmen, meaning "a threshold") is the quality of the second stage of a ritual in the theories of Arnold van Gennep, Victor Turner, and others.

to be "in between" two distinct realms, as in the threshold of a doorway Liminality refers to the ambiguous nature of symbolic objects and ritual activity, in that the sacred reality of the object or act is to be found not in the thing itself but in one's dynamic relationship to it The term is often used in reference to the transitional state within a rite of passage, i e , the condition (or non-condition) in which the initiand is in the process of leaving one state of being and entering into another While in liminal transition, the initiand is "in between," and is therefore a kind of non-person until he/she emerges anew on the other side

The condition of being on a threshold or in a 'betwixt and between space' (Victor Turner, Forest of Symbols) Liminality would be a metaphor for the Surrealist condition, which is liminal by definition (the resolution of the states of waking and dreaming) Straightforward limens include doors, passages, windows and window-sills

The critically important marginal or in-between phase of a rite of passage
