This theory aims to create a comprehensive model of the inter-relationship between the Essences. We do this by first analyzing the philosophical relationships between the Surges, and from there move on to the Essences that they represent (as described in my Revised Essence-Surge diagram):
Complementary Relationships (Internal/External)[edit]
Illumination and Transportation[edit]
Transformation and Cohesion[edit]
Gravitation and Friction[edit]
Tension and Division[edit]
Adhesion and Progression[edit]
Opposing Relationships (Push/Pull)[edit]
Illumination and Gravitation[edit]
Illumination represents light and vitality. Gravity represents darkness and the grave.
Transformation and Tension[edit]
Transformation represents change. Tension represents resistance to change.
Transportation and Friction[edit]
Transportation represents motion. Friction represents resistance to motion.
Division and Cohesion[edit]
Cohesion represents harmony. Division represents loss of harmony.
