Preview via Function, Requirement & State

The structural hierarchy is built up via groupings of adjacent monads, commencing with just 1 and ending with all 7.

Without entering into the details of the groups in each grouping, it may be helpful to get an overview of how the groupings progressively evolve to ensure that you establish and protect yourself so as to ultimately get what you want.

In each grouping, the function will initially be proposed, and then the requirement followed by the state. Two characteristic requirements, not meant to be exclusive, are proposed to provide a practical feel.

G1:

The function of the 7 Monads (G1) is to enable you to gain an advantage over others.

This requires you to serve your self-interest sporadically using any of the 7 means of benefiting that derive from the interacting-for-benefit approaches.

Typical features: self-management & egocentrism

Transition: Inserting your self-interests into a situation may well work for you in that moment, but your environment is dynamic and unstable with respect to your needs and wishes. Because the future is uncertain, something more enduring is required.

G2: 

The function of the 6 Dyads (G2) is to enable you to establish a foothold in society.

This requires you to organise risk-taking continually using any of the 6 types of commitment that result from combining adjacent means of benefiting.

Typical features: courage & common-sense.

Transition: Risk-taking is focused, which is what allows it to be managed and continually monitored. However, this activity needs to be complemented and supported by an attractive and broader social presence.

G3: 

The function of the 5 Triads (G3) is to enable you to construct your social identity.

This requires you to handle exposure sporadically using any of the 5 spheres of contest that result from combining 3 adjacent means of benefiting.

Typical features: genuineness & practicality.

Transition: Having a defensible position in society is protective, but you need to be able to interact easily with others to feel gratified and ultimately satisfied. These interactions involve social exchanges.

G4: 

The function of the 4 Tetrads (G4) is to enable you to to have wishes satisfied in society.

This requires you to exchange with others continually using any of the 4 systems of interaction that result from combining 4 adjacent means of benefiting.

Typical features: honesty & reciprocity.

Transition: Being satisfied in society feels like reaching a peak. However, to this point you have taken your social milieu for granted, when it is really the dominating factor in what happens to you.

G5: 

The function of the 3 Pentads (G5) is to enable you to impact on events in society.

This requires you to seek control sporadically using any of the 3 channels of influence that result from combining 5 adjacent means of benefiting.

Typical features: judgement & persuasiveness.

Transition: Making an impact is essential, but that does not address your wish to maintain a level of wealth that you feel is necessary for your comfort in society.

G6: 

The function of the 2 hexads (G6) is to enable you to protect your standard of living.

This requires you to maintain affluencecontinually using either of the 2 generators of dynamism that result from combining 6 adjacent means of benefiting.

Features: energy & positivity

Transition: The present is being taken care of but the undefinable and unforeseeable future is the crucible of your ambitions.

G7: 

The function of the 1 Heptad (G7) is to enable you to to engage with the future.

This requires you to awaken ambition sporadically using the single condition of expectancy that results from combining all 7 adjacent means of benefiting.

Features: awareness & aspiration.

Transition: Being vigilant and ready to respond to whatever emerges and catches your eye is enabled by activating any one of the means to serve your self-interest, which takes us back to G1.
