Geometry and movement (Crosses and Profiles)
Random Ra snippet (again shared by Koen) - possibly I can’t exactly translate, likely could use more context, but maybe there’s a nugget.
Was just in DM a couple days ago talking about profile being about how we move through the world.
There’s some of that here:
"the concept of geometry.
Your incarnative geometry has pointed you down a specific street; the path you are going to take in life.
Right Angle geometry goes down a path with no designed intersections, so there is never a guarantee anything will bang into it.
It is not designed to have crossing geometries. It is in fact absorbing geometries, because there is no one else they are expecting to meet on their line, no one.
The third line is so close to the transpersonal edge that it keeps on banging into other forces.
The Left Angle, meanwhile, is driving down a one-way street the wrong way for some reason and bang into a Right Angle.
Your geometry brings you to your path.
You allow your geometry to guide you along your path without interference. That’s how you get to your purpose.
I have dressed this up to find metaphors that work, but your students need to be very clear that the geometry of your angle is how you are angled to meet or not to meet; a subtlety in the way that you move down the path.
From a Pythagorean point of view, the perfect 90-degree Right Angle is very rigid; a rigid straight line.
Meanwhile, the Left Angle is off. Therefore it ends up weaving almost like a spiral around the Right Angle direction.
It’s a double helix seen in another way. Because we are in movement, everything is about movement.
I am trying to bring back early components of moving fractal geometry that were abandoned for later synthesis.
So begin profile with direction, and the various kinds of direction we talk about in Design.
They will say, “Yes, but I am Sphinx.”
And you will say, “Yes, but you are a Right Angle Sphinx,” for instance, and then elaborate.
Give them simple basics about the Nodes.
We need different modes of direction clarified.
Profile and Nodes need clarification.
We are talking about them in the database, not the Bodygraph, so we have a binocular view."
