The 4 Elements of Timing and Direction - Ronan Poi

Описание: The Elements of Timing and Direction. Only the Poivatar can master all 4 elements!

EARTH - same time same direction (the element of solidity - extended lines, etc)
WATER - split time same direction (the flowing element - weaves, etc)
AIR - same time opposite direction (the element of spaciousness -the butterfly)
FIRE - split time opposite direction ( the flickering effect - split opp butterfly, or the "firefly" 😉)

This is an old system passed down from the old master Andreas Markus Hoenigschmid ("the hybrid birther" and co-conspirator to the legendary "nameless move")🙏 @official_geobender

It's a great system whose language appeals more to some people than the classic timing and direction model (ie split time same direction, etc).

One of the things that I love about it this more poetic interpretation is that it gives a depth of flavour for peoples imaginations to work with that goes beyond the pure technical description which, while being very useful in it's own right, can lack feeling and tend towards a more mind based approach rather than feeling.
I think that balance is important, and that when both sides are present the most interesting things happen.

People should use whichever systems and languages that work for them, and we should all stay open to the possibility if ways other than our own. We dont need to grasp so strongly to our rightness and push it on others.

It's useful to have a common language and at the same time if the whole world only spoke english we would lose so much depth and breadth of possibility in communication. In some languages you can say things that there isn't even a concept for in another language. Ideas and ways of thinking get lost when languages die. Embrace diversity.

May the flow be with you.
