We see the 7-colour spectrum divided with violet at the top, representing the most 

successful and effective form of verbal commnication, a two way conversation 

between two individual central-ego's within a closed-network psychic-system. Here 

the "talking head" on the left already has the next lowest step on their mind, while 

the interlocutor on the right is dwelling on the "blank" condition and attempting to 

ignore its having already been imprinted with its own prior experiences. This form 

of communication is calm, stable and self-perpetuating. 

On the indigo level of interpersonal relationships according to this model, we see the 

two primary-ego's beginning to take turns speaking and communicating their point 

of view on their topical message. The speaker has their mind set on the next step in 

the process, ie. evoking a reciprocation, while the listener has their mind on the 

previous moment, wherein both communicated in contextual conversation. 

On the blue level, we find the Indigo level situation reversed between Person A and 

Person B, wherein now the listener begins to speak, and the previous speaker must 

cease speaking and begin to listen instead. Again, the mind of Person A is on the 

future, or the next step in the discussion to follow, Person B's mind remains set on the 

past, and contemplating the information it had previously been listening to. 

On the green level, we see that it is now Person A's turn to speak again, however 

their mind, by focusing on predicting the future based on past epxerience of similar 

cycles, has already slipped down into the next, less effective level of communication, 

depicted by the "hot" colour yellow. Person B, meanwhile, has turned their back on 

Person A already, having come to the conclusion their unique contribution to the 

prescribed role determined for them in context of the communication has come to a 

conclusion. Their mind is thus depicted in blue. 

On the yellow level of interpersonal social communications, we find a further 

deterioration in the equity of the data-exchange between the two parties, as Person B 

speaks over their shoulder to Person A, without turning around to face them yet. The 

speaker's mind is on the better past, but the listener's mind will interpret it as an 

insult to their own careful expectations. 

On the orange level we find that now Person A has turned to leave and Person B has 

turned back around to face them. Person B's mind is still tense and hostile, however 

they yet offer a means of re-starting the process of communication over, even 

though, by this point, no such relationship of trust would be undamaged by the 

degree of disagreement being depicted. Person A's mind will remain unswayed, and 

seek to counter-point this offer with a rebuttal. 

On the red level, Person A, that is, the one who began to monopolise the conversation 

first, leaves the conversation completely, blaming the other party they were 

communicating with for the failure and breakdown of their rapport. Over their 

shoulder, behind their back, to the yet regretful and hopeful mind of Person B, 

Person A tenders a final insult and departs, their brain now transformed from the 

speaker to the seeker, to become a listener (in the role of Person B) to another, 

different primary-ego within their closed-network psychic-system.

What is important to remember is that there is a dynamic, active process at work, 

effecting the changes described within this model. The weight of concentration 

draws us downward into this cycle of communication, and it is only by "lightening 

up" our "deep" thoughts and "gravitas" that we can maintain afloat in the uppermost 

levels where communication is moderate and moods are temperate.
