Type of character—Hot Air—general diagram.



In the diagram above, we can see that one of the points is labeled as — Hot Air. The Hot Air point is also labeled — Conscious State.

Conscious State has this attribute that each type of character tries mainly to follow this state. Therefore, all types of Mandala of Characters take their names from the points where their Conscious States are located.


The next key states of the type Hot Air, which also have a significant impact on his psyche, are located in the following places:

  • Unconscious State (or Complementary State) at the point:
    — Cool Earth,
  • Strong Self-Esteem State (or Power State) at the points:
    — Wet Water, or
    — Dry Fire,
  • Soft Self-Esteem State (or Vulnerable State) at the points:
    — Wet Water, or
    — Dry Fire,

These three states, although they do not play a leading role in our psyche, like Conscious State, they are also significant and necessary. And they have essential functions in the life of any type of character.

As we can see, Power or Vulnerable States can be in two places. So, these two points can put us into both Power and Vulnerable State. Simply put, this is because, for example, a given matter, problem, job, task, etc., at one time, can make us feel powerful or at another time—vulnerable.


In the next four chapters, I will show the four main psychological states of Hot Air, namely:

  • Conscious State of Hot Air,
  • Strong Self-Esteem State (or Power State) of Hot Air,
  • Soft Self-Esteem State (or Vulnerable State) of Hot Air,
  • Unconscious (or Complementary) State of Hot Air.

Then, in the next three chapters, I will present three main areas of our psyche, namely:

  • Conscious Triangle of Hot Air,
  • Unconscious Triangle of Hot Air,
  • The Self Square of Hot Air.
