Common Polarities by Force

Trish Blain May 23, 2020

Common Polarities by Force:

Strategies and patterns often reveal places that we are holding an either-or, black and white thinking. When they are not integrated, the four forces and the metaskills, feel like we have to choose between them. Also, these same polarities show up in our relationships, communities and greater cultural trends. Take a moment and see if any of these common polarities are ones that you find yourself flip-flopping between. You might also see these as “old you” and “new you” if you have done a bigger flip between forces during your . These point to common strategies and patterns that are ready to break open into something new.

There are six combinations when we pair the four forces up, two at a time. There is also the common pattern of the axis of Connection/Purpose as opposite to Expression / Growth. Below we look at these common variations.
