Simple form
Power = ±H ( W ± A )
Extended form
Power = ( S · φ ) + H ( W ± A )

Glossary

Terms used in the book.

Yoruba terms appear in their proper diacritic form. Framework terms link back to the chapter that introduces them.

Àṣẹ
Yoruba: source. The capacitance entering a person from ancestral, traditional, or institutional channels — the term used for the S variable in the extended formula. Introduced Chapter 2.
Ìwà
Yoruba: character. The composite quality determining whether Àṣẹ passes through a person at full voltage or degrades in transit — the term used for the φ alignment coefficient in the extended formula. Introduced Chapter 2.
Egungun
Yoruba: ancestral presence. In the framework, the stored capacitance accumulated across generations and available to a conduit correctly aligned to receive it. Introduced Chapter 2; expanded Chapter 19.
HPAM
Human Power Awareness Model. The six-channel architecture (Emotional, Social, Information, Institutional, Economic, Symbolic) introduced in Chapter 4.
Three awareness levels
Naive, Strategic, Predatory. The interpretive frame readers carry into a room. Same instrument, three different outputs. Introduced Chapter 5.
Five levels of power
Direct, Positional, Relational, Structural, Ideological. The vertical stack on which any conflict can be running. Introduced Chapter 7; applied to marriage in Chapter 18.
The Inheriting Line
The multi-generational conduit through which patterns transmit forward. The line that pattern-break work bends. Introduced Chapter 14; closed in the Epilogue.
