AXIS BY AXIS
How Dionysus and Hermes work together.
Each letter is a Greek opposition. Shared letters are common ground; split letters are where the interesting arguments live.
- C·O
RealmSplit · Where does your power live?
Hermes works in the open and Dionysus works below the surface. One brings the stage and the other brings the foundations, so agree early which parts of a plan get announced.
- M
MethodShared · How do you win?
Two clever routes. You will out-plan almost any problem together, and you may also out-plan each other, so say what you actually want.
- R
GroundShared · Where do you stand?
You both live on the road. Every week brings something new, so decide together where you come back to.
- K
PurposeShared · Who is it for?
You both play for the name. You push each other higher, and you will need a clear rule for sharing credit.
Reversed, together
Dionysus: Recognition turns into revenge.
Hermes: Every route stays open, so no promise gets kept.
One habit for the pair
- Before anything big goes public, agree on what gets shared and what stays between you.
