Five signifies action; whether that action is genuine according to the individual’s unique awareness or if it is consequence of group identity is not yet clear. With action begins the relationship to consequence, the biofeedback language of consciousness communicating with the environment. That goes with saying: if an individual is not becoming aware of consequence in relation to welfare, an individual is not becoming conscious.

What then designates welfare? What is the standard set, the metric to quantify (and qualify) value? This is the question that comes to be answered through the lifestyle, the layers of decisions made which form an individual. There are positive and negative elements of welfare associated with being introverted or extroverted. At this point, I will introduce a main element within my personal philosophy which will come to be expanded upon moving forward:

• Color is a concept: everything is Color, and nothing is Color. Of the multitude expressions, there are three primary colors: red, yellow, and blue- each distinct upon their own natures and yet defined by the others within the color wheel. The secondary colors are defined by means of the primary colors’ transitions: orange, green, and purple.

• Spirit is a concept: everything is Spirit, and nothing is Spirit. Within the human experience, there are three primary bodies: the physical body (“red”), the emotional body (“yellow”), and the mental body (“blue”)- each distinct upon their own intelligences and yet defined by the others within the color wheel. The secondary bodies are defined by means of the primary bodies’ transitions: the sensual body (“orange”), the intuitive body (“green”), and the integrated body (“purple”).

  

It would seem that some aspects of our experience are hidden in plain sight- as if the task of our time is in our individual capacity to understand these connections on deeply personal levels, to then allow time and space for these intelligences to rise into awareness. It is becoming evidenced on multiple levels how severely out of balance the human condition has become- to the point now that the cerebral intelligence has grown so extensively it is inhibiting the development of the rest.

This cerebral intelligence, generally speaking, overcompensates for the lack of development in these other areas- leading to what is recognized to be an inflamed egotism. There appears to be an inverse relation between homeostasis of these intelligences within the self and the inflamed egotism. “Feeding the hunger only makes the hunger grow.” That is to say: the greater the imbalance that exists between these intelligence centers, the more likely an individual is to hyperfixate on one intelligence center to be the identity.

If “four signifies a personal aim upon the spectrum in relation to where the individual is positioned,” five is the initiation of action towards this aim. This sets into motion the mechanics of consequence, of Karma, for to move through the environment is to interact with it- to then see the nature of one’s intentions through the way the environment responds. This, in turn, births Relationship.
