Vertical Shear (GEOM:VSH)

Vertical Shear is a pathological geometry where the Apex ($\Omega$) is severed from the Base ($\Sigma$-$\text{A}$-$\text{E}$). The Navigator operates purely on the horizontal plane.

Phenomenology

  • “Flatland”: Life is solved, managed, and executed, but lacks depth or height.
  • Materialism: Cynicism about meaning, spirit, or the unseen.
  • Blocked Receipt: Cannot receive grace, help, or inspiration. “I have to do it all myself.”
  • Orphaned Competence: Highly skilled Base Triangle, but purposeless.

Mechanism

  • Trauma or cultural conditioning has blocked the Mysterium.
  • The vertical span ($D \leftrightarrow H$) is inaccessible.
  • The Navigator collapses from a tetrahedron into a flat triangle.
