I’d say that I disagree with whoever says that the Trinity is intrinsically incomprehensible, which is just the same as calling it gibberish.
My favored image is the circle. The circle has a center, a circumference, and an area. Which is the circle? Well, of course they are all the circle, non-identical with each other but equally of the essence. And moreover, there is a logical hierarchy: the center produces the circumference, and the area is the relation between the first and the second. So, I think of center as Father and circumference as Son and the Holy Ghost as the dynamic area between them.
I also think of circumference as clay and center as the core of light, with the area being an overlap of both psychological and metaphysical space, almost in the style of Jung.
