The third layer unites the higher soul with Intellect, which enables it to return to a state of identity with intelligible being. Intellect is paradigmatic due to being the primary actuality. It is a divine intellect, which is reflexively aware of itself as the subject of its self-thinking. Awareness is a first-order property of its self-thinking, since its activity essentially involves awareness and the intelligible objects with which it is identical are holistic and transparent. When we assimilate to Intellect, we become integrated into its nature and exhibit the properties of its self-thinking. However, when we are united to Intellect we do not become the primary actuality. We become integrated into the primary actuality as a part, which contains within itself the totality of intelligible being, similar to the way one Form contains the rest. However, since our contemplation of individual Forms involves a focusing of attention (enapereisis) and this narrowing of focus provides our intellect with a point of view, our contemplation is tied to individualized perspectives. The notion of subjectivity I am attributing to Plotinus at this level is related to having this point of view or perspective on the intelligible world.
