How to Use This Site Orientation

📎 Key Insight

Read in the designed rhythm, move with your needs. The recommended path is Book 1 → Book 2 → Book 3 so pieces “snap into place”; you’re welcome to jump where needed and return to centre (✴) when lost.

⚡ Mantras

  • Headings are promises; the spine is visible.
  • Hold two without collapse (⦿ posture, ∞ triangulation).
  • Refusal = respect; moves stay reversible (✴).

🟦 Flowchart (If X → Then Y)

New here → Start at Book 1 (Foundations) → proceed
Applying now → Check Applications (Book 3) → verify guardrails
Feeling lost → Return to Clarity Engine (About) → reread Two‑Eyed Seeing
Draft swelling → Read the spine → take the smallest viable next move (⦿ → ∞)

🔍 Micro‑Lexicon

  • Dual‑track — visible surface line + <abbr> nuance.
  • Resonance pills — ⦿ posture • ∞ triangulation • ✴ centre • ⌘ reset/vessel.
  • Cute cards — dense content in friendly, outlined tiles.

Recommended Path

Start with Book 1 (Foundations / “Path of Learning”), then Book 2 (Doctrine / Seven‑Star), then Book 3 (Applications). This rhythm is designed so ideas lock in sequence and reduce effort.

Move into Book 3 when you’re ready for practice flows and templates; verify guardrails before using anything with learners.

Non‑Linear Options

If you need something fast, jump where it helps and circle back. Keep posture online (⦿), and use the centre (✴) to decide when to pause, reset (⌘), or proceed.

  • Skim page headings to see promises; open <abbr> tooltips for soft nuance.
  • When in doubt, revisit the Clarity Engine and Two‑Eyed Seeing.

Signals & Refusal ⦿

  • Healthy: visible spine, explicit boundaries, reversible moves.
  • Cost rising: soft claims, hidden assumptions, oversized steps.
  • Refusal: if coherence is OFF, stop (✴), repair, and resume smaller.

Accessibility & Language

  • Plain‑speak first; hybrid tone allowed, line stays clear.
  • High contrast; aphantasia‑friendly (text‑first).
  • Tooltips carry warmth; the spine stays sharp.

Where Things Live

  • About: Orientation (this page), Clarity Engine, Two‑Eyed Seeing, Method & Collaboration, AI Collaboration, Positionality, Stewardship Behind the Framework.
  • Book 1 (Foundations): ethics, posture, lenses, and guardrails.

FAQ Highlights

  • Do I need Book 1 first? Recommended, yes—then Book 2, then Book 3.
  • Can I jump around? Yes. When lost, return to centre (✴) and reread the spine.
  • Where are images? Text‑first by design for accessibility and ethics.
