Feb. 1st, 2010 01:59 pmHere's a bit of thought in the woo-woo category. But hey, I do have some woo-woo tendencies.
Anyway, I often use frameworks as ways to look at the world. These are not so much maps as they are heuristic models, much as I see things like Tarot, Kaballah and the like. So I guess you could call this part of a sort of Raptured kaballah. ;) Anyway, as I am geometrically inclined, this has geometric roots. Also, I found I like many of the ideas in Integral Theory (if not the personalities behind it), so this particular schema has significant influences from there.
So it's really about the cube as a model of multi-facetted self, with some help from the octahedron and tetrahedron.
