Instinctual Cycles: Synflow / Contraflow

Kristen (so/sp 9w1 963) and David (sp/sx 9w1 974) decide to start the conversation on what synflow and contraflow are as concepts in the Enneagram instinct stackings. They decide to come from an angle of observing individuals with these fixed directional movements, but also as a collective or human experience. To see if they are able to feel where these directions live in artistic expression, the hosts watch movie clip examples; one from a synflow director and one from a contraflow director.
