Anneagram of all

Construction of Gurdjieff's Anneagram
as Metaphysical Template for analyzed representation

Step 1.

Law of Heptaparaparshinok: Every completing totality divides into 7 parts. Let the signs 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 mark equal divisions of a continuous circular line.

This is posited as metaphysical background for tracing the course of any process through time, in any space. A "completed octave" will be the transition of process continuously from point to point, which are called Stopenders (intersection of successive segments).

Step 2.

Match the integers in the six digit decimal expansion of 7/1 = 0.142857.... to the signs marking the circle, thus: (1 - 1), (2- 4), (3-2), (4-8), (5-5), (6-7). 0-(7*). 7* matches the sign "7" from step 1; the 0 is introduced for the circle any closed line posits. This sets up the circle as unity divided into seven equal parts, 0 = 7 for all entities.

Step 3.

Place the number 9 over the number 7 at the top of the circle; then equalize the distances after "3" is inserted between 2 and 4, and "6" is inserted between 5 and 7. Connect 9 -3 -6 with straight lines, forming the equilateral.

Step 4.

Draw Inner Lines connecting 1 -4 - 2 and 8 -5 - 7 inside the circle, crossing over from 2 to 8, then 7 to 5 with a single motion. This correlates the six StopEnders of step 1 with the ratios of step 2 as a distinct order. This gives two ways of proceeding from 1 to 9/(7*): around the circle through the points 3 and 6 (Ex.: life trajectory); or by the line 1-4-2-8-5-7 (Inner Lines).
This constructs the formal appearance of Gurdjieff's Anneagram, correlating space, number and a duration (of "time"). It applies to the life of individual man, as well as to the universe (completing totalities).
The StopEnders are interpreted here as functional organs, or "sopping points" where transformation occurs. This is a separate order, laid out in advance of the successive progression from 1 to 2 to 3 etc. around the circle.

In the dynamic interpretation of these two lines of motion through any space, the numbers 3 -6 formthe base of the pyramid
9
6 3

correspond to "shock" points: places at which interaction with an independent process is required as a completing force. If the original (step 1) sequence is matched with the musical notes Re Mi Fa So La Ti "Do" corresponds to the conjunction of 7*-9 through 8. The shocks correlate with the semit-ones

In the development of human experience under sign-use, (3)
correlates with communication, (6) with criticism. Communication is required as external 'shock' of new knowledge; critique is required as internal shock to distinguish truth or falsehood, reality and illusion. The completion of the circle from DO to DO (7*- 9) is as Birth to Death, for the completed totality of the psyche, but it can, and must occur many tomes for lesser totalities within the duration. The proper completion accumulates an energy that passes on at 9, to an octave of higher scale.(which is already sounding in a conguent 'dimension' as the same notes and numbers are repeated) A less-than proper completion passes back through 7* to 1, again, as re-cycled conscious content.
My interpretation of the StopEnders and shocks, pending revision and re-application, is:

1 = Re bloodline vibration

2 = Mi Family Faith bond

3. Shock: communication

4. = Fa Knowledge (intellectual bond)

5 = So Culture (group interaction: music, arts, games)

6. Shock: Criticism

7 = La Enjoyment (incl. expressiveness, etiquette)

8 = Ti Responsibility (politics, group process, mastery)

9 Completion/transformation


Working with the interpretation of this system along Inner Lines
1 - 4 - 2 => Bloodline knowledge of family faith bond.---

passed on to

8 - 5 - 7 : Responsible/-ity for Cultural Enjoyment

is the most succinct explicit formula for maintaining conscious human life

Further work should make it possible to correlate "notes" in specific completing octave-processes with observations of qualities of experience given in the mainstream media of communication. (MSM com) For example, the daily reel of channel news network repeatedly juxtaposed News of WAR ON TERROR with News of ANNA NICOLE SMITH"S DEAD BODY AND BRITNEY SPEAR'S HAIR (both blond sex Goddesses). News of the military/political debacle in Iraq, generously interspersed on all channels (CNN, MSNBC, FOX) with images of wild, drugged, dead women of precisely the sort New Age cultural gurus are saying provide the blood required by reptilian creatures who rule the world to hold human form, and not shape-shift. (that is one formula linking the 'notes'; indefinite number of others).
