How we work...

Postby sleepingwolf » Fri Jul 27, 2018 7:39 pm

I felt like posting a bit of a description of how our system works, and who is in it and such. It's mainly just to do, but I'd love any comments.

So, there are around 50+ in our system, we call the 'Albion System'. We're in a male body, in it's thirties.

We've developed a way of living where we co-front with three of us; a do-er, a little and a thinker/protector. We realised recently we can create a timetable for the 'do-ers', and the littles and thinkers are chosen by an alter who has the 'the guy who choses things' role. Of course we switch and come out for different things, triggers and such, but the chosen three for the day are the 'default' for the day.

The 'do-ers' are all ladies - 9 of us:
Lucy, Yanni, Melden, Gothika, Hyydii, Jules, Sky, Alice, Pastella

The littles are mainly female, with one or two males - 8 of us:
Kooks, Leiah, Cylie, Bubs, Iceni...and a few more I can't recall right now!

The thinkers are mainly male, with a few females - 10 of us:
Artois, Guinevere, Cuthbert, Plutarch, Aragorn, Dimitri, Django, Jaquadine, Boudicca

We then have a host of peeps who do certain roles, or who don't really want to be known yet.

Our 'original' stays deep inside, and is still a little, and from being young I guess a few of the 'do-ers' took over co-hosting.
We've eventually figured all of this out...and so we have a shared life. It's quite different to some of the people we've seen on youtube and such, because there isn't 'one main person's life'. We all choose work, relationships, activities and major decisions that we all want and all can do.

We have a few different names for things.

'Sleeping Wolf' is our Tribal Name, I guess our new birth name, which we received from life. It's what all of us are. Our collective life and behaviour is 'Sleeping Wolf'.
'The Albion System' is our name for everything; body, mind and soul if you like.

Ok, that will do for now. I wanted to write about our memories and daily lives, but for another time!

Hello to all of the Albion System, from all of the Flux system! :D

It sounds like you all have a really good system in place for managing daily life, that's really cool!

Hi to all in the Albion System. I'm actually rather envious that you have such a cohesive system. Ours isn't like that yet. And we're not sure how to get there. We try to be conscious amd considerate of the wants and needs of those who have made themselves known, but it's not always easy.

Thanks for the comments guys! :D

It's true, we can live daily life quite well, but still struggle with any stressful times, and the harder things in life (like complex tasks, future planning and such).

I think we are lucky that in a way we've been working things out 'under wraps' for ages, almost our whole life. We've had the downside of not a single life (which is then turned upside down) but this has brought many upsides too.

We've taken a great amount of inspiration from Spiritual ideas, philosophy, Art, Spiritual Art and Music, as well as Nature. These really form the backbone of our living.
Our 'three-up' way of daily life I'm pretty sure was inspired by the Spiritual Trinity, as well as Spiritual-psychological ideas of 'Anima' and 'Animus'. We also have used a lot of symbolism and poetry in our lives, to find ideas and rules we all agree on.

We've been lucky enough to read a lot, and I mean a lot! We've not done much 'scholar' stuff with it, or any fancy job, but we've made our own rules and ways of doing things.

One of the first things we all connected with was 'Truth is Beauty, Beauty is Truth'. This is a real core belief of ours. So we all 'live beautiful' and this has to come before money, success, fame...etc.

We still really struggle with other people though, and find this on of our biggest challenges at the minute.

Thank you for posting this information. It's always interesting to see how different each person's system works. I love how you have one that delegates and assigns for the day. That's really interesting. Does that mean you have a more co-cognizant type of system?

Have you ever run into where there might be someone that handles the day to day tasks, ex: Driving, showering, cooking, etc? Or, do you feel like their might be multiples?

Thanks for the response LadyColes, I'm glad you find it interesting!

What is a co-cognizant type of system? I've never heard that before...

We certainly have different skills levels, and levels of care for stuff...and we have 'Stellar' who is a Mother figure (she's Spanish) and she will come out to do housework, cooking and such, if the usual 'do-ers' don't have the energy or clear thinking.

We're trying to delegate out some other tasks, or have certain guys who decide about them. For example, with showering, we're looking to assign 'shower person' to a do-er in the system. They can listen to everyone's wants, and then decide the overall shower routine that everyone has to stick to. It would be there responsibility too I guess.

I forgot to add 'Zelda' to the 'do-ers'...feeling quite guilty now! She can easily get pushed out and forgotten too...oops!
