The dominant attitude, whether it be thinking, feeling, intuition or sensation I call dominator.  In the case above, I show thinking as the dominant attitude or dominator.  That is thinking dominates all other attitudes, especially feeling which is shown at the bottom of the circle.  When I suggested with this little process is a way to value your feelings, which is where the dreams come from, where the thinking values the feeling on a equal basis.  So weÕre gonna turn this 90 degrees so that thinking and feeling are equally valued with thinking.

 

 

            So weÕve gone from a dominator attitude to a partnering attitude.  That is a paradigm shift.  And I invented this thing for people who were genuine thinkers.  Your engineers, or ecclesiastics, especially in the culture I grew up in where theyÕre male dominated.  TheyÕre rational processes. They donÕt value feeling, they donÕt know how to get in touch with their feelings, generally.  They donÕt know what thatÕs all about.  ThatÕs disregarded, thatÕs painful, especially when youÕre a feeling person as I am, and didnÕt know it.

 

I had a doctorate in engineering science in this quadrant, and here I discovered later, IÕm an intuitive feeling type.  No wonder I was in so much pain; I was not in my own element.  I was dying out here, and didnÕt know why.  This was good stuff.  Jung rescued me.  This was so beautiful for me.
