Upon a Craftworld, the Infinity Circuit can be accessed at any time by any citizen via an '''Infinity Terminal'''. These terminals nodes in the infinity circuit that take the form of a slender pedestal, strewn with crystal thread, atop which sits a gently pulsing gem that an individual places their hand upon to interact.{{Fn|5a}}{{Fn|5b}} This allows psychic interface with the Circuit, and the user can identify the present recent past locations and emotions of any Eldar within the Craftworld, as well as, exchange instant messages with individuals in the form of telepathic visions. They can also seek guidance from past friends or ancestors.{{Fn|5b}}
The infinity circuit emanates light from its spirits that is referred to as the '''will o' the wisps'''{{Fn|7}} (or '''will-o’-the-wisps''').{{Fn|5b}} These lights are the spirits contained within. The presence of a [[Spiritseer]] gives off an aura of focus that returns some sense of sentience to the glowing and bobbing orbs of ghost light, each being a individual spirit. This returned awareness agitates spirits into activity, often flocking to orbit around the spiritseer.{{Fn|7}} The will o' the wisp reveals locations where ancient souls are clustered in the infinity circuit's wraithbone.{{Fn|8}}
The [[Exodite]] equivalent of an Infinity Circuit is known as a '''World Shrine'''{{Fn|4}}, which contains the heart of the [[World Spirit]].{{citethis}}
