[Notes only]
In which we at first appear to have come to the heart of the matter, but discover we have come to a matter of the heart
(4/heart in labyrinth — RH/reverse move)
It would be nice to survive…; it’s not going to work if your heart isn’t in it
Living with uncertainty » acceptance (heart)/trust
Compassion: ‘power with’ — directing, not controlling
(No ‘science’ [analytic] here — it’s all subjective, about who you are)
Example of environment issues: everything changes once you care
Flip is to focus caring, to actually do something (we don’t yet know what)
Respect for machines » respect for totality; caring about work
Analytic revised: I know when I know, I know when I don’t know, I know when I’ve got it wrong (i.e. dealing with reality, not a school exam)
Pay attention! esp. to feedback — things do work most of the time; direction, awareness of influence » correction
Caring » release from care » happiness, joy (e.g. job-satisfaction); craftsmanship (breaking downward cycle of analysis-only » ‘lowest common denominator’ » removal of subjective » destruction of care/self-esteem)
Continuing action — active-intuitive rather than passive-intuitive — takes you to the spirit
