It is generally experienced as a transitional period between two different
circumstances or life-contexts. During the adjustment period one is looking for ways to re-contextualize his intentions or model of reference given the new data.
A liminal state will open the spectrum of possibilities because previously existent obstacles disappear.
Traveling, starting on a new job, a business, a new relationship or the ending of them. In any case, it entails readjustment to a new context, a new situation.
Liminality to my understanding is characterized by a time period where instability, uncertainty and ambiguity are maximized and play a role in creating a transformational experience.
The attitude towards such a period of transformation is unique to each individual. Fear, Excitement, Anxiety or Joy; All triggered by change.
In such moments we become self-aware, deeply immersed into the dynamic of life which happens in a non-linear way.

I think similar to how day and night become only obvious because the opposites exist, we only become aware of how dynamic -- and finite -- life is when it changes.
You go through long stretches of little change and you might think life mightt last like that forever... you might even begin thinking life will last forever.
