Turmoil

 Our friend, Lucy Bee, asks about this map.

I offered:

This map shows the four personality quadrants and their four political orientations.

The arrow of time is presented as we read a page: from the left-hand side to the right hand side.

The power/hierarchy axis is that which is placed vertically: the Authoritarians at the top, the Experientialists at the lower end.

Similar mappings, such as www.politicalcompass.org label thus lower end 'Liberal': I prefer Experiential. Additionally, Political Compass uses the quite arbitrary Left/Right horizontal axis just as it sounds. I prefer the way I offer it since the two quadrants on the left-hand side of the mapping that I offer are Reactionaries, those on the right-hand side are (or claim to be) Progressives.

This particular rendering was/is an attempt to show the turmoil in each quadrant and the blockages for each group.

Along with suggested 'Worm Holes' which might allow each group from their turmoil.

Finally, a twinned pair of comments about Personality Types and this mapping.

First: the True Colours/Personality Dimensions approach (which I like a lot) suggests that each if us are a blend of all four Types/Quadrants and that each Quadrant might have a relationship to four neurochemically active molecules.

Our average position can be manipulated by manipulating those four neurochemicals.

Such as us happening now.

Finally, to there seems to be a 'Rubric's Cube' effect that I can't get to the bottom of, whereby, it seems, the map gets twisted on the vertical axis, such that 'The Liberals' become Authortarian and vice versa.

For more, there is a PDF of a presentation on this that I, much too hurriedly, gave at New Lanark.

It's called, I think, 'Personalities, Politics and Emotions'.

It's in the papers' section at www.interestfreemoney.org

Again, many thanks for asking.
