I just realized there may be a (further) misunderstanding at play here. By ‘heavy’, I haven’t necessarily meant “having great weight”, “having a high (specific) gravity”, “having greater than normal mass”, etc. (In other words, I haven’t necessarily meant it literally .) Thus the two most important instances where I used the word on this site in this context are these:
‘I now think the accumulation [of forces] is secondary, whereas the discharge is primary. I can’t even say the accumulation is the means whereas the discharge is the end, for this would ascribe an intentionality to the accumulation process which I don’t think there need be. When power is discharged, of course it doesn’t disappear into nothingness; it is discharged somewhere , which means someplace else is getting charged… At the most basic level, accumulation is simply this getting charged. And the feeling of power is not in the accumulation, but in the discharge (seine Kraft herauslassen , letting out one’s force). This is why I now call the will to power a “self-Lightening”: the feeling of power is the feeling of getting “lighter”; and the Lightening gets “lighter” by this very Lightening: it becomes less in one place but greater (“heavier”) in another. It never comes to a standstill!’
Note, by the way, that, unless such a berserking is “fed”, its berserking gets ever lighter, since what it relieves itself of in berserking is itself such (a) self-relieving(s). And when such “waves” of self-relief are absorbed by another berserker, it drives him more berserk, because he thereby becomes a greater bundle of self-lightening(s). Heavier, more vehement, more intense.
