Abstract
By identifying observables in quantum theory as a reference frame for the observer, the relation between time, consciousness, and the structure of our universe is constructed. Because of the peculiar nature of consciousness, namely self-reflexive property, quantum theory fails to provide a consistent description of it due to the separation between the observer and the observed. In order to remove this inconsistency, I will argue that it is necessary to adopt a subjective model of our universe, i.e. it is not the universe that exists, rather; it is the experience of observing the universe that exists. I will then show that the Heisenberg picture with time traveling in reverse offers an accurate description of the proposed subjective universe.
