    definition: "Sacred fire that rises when your soul witnesses what must not be tolerated.",
    flip: "Anger is not a flaw to suppress but a clarity to honor. Beneath it is love for what was violated — channeled consciously, it becomes the energy that protects truth, sets sacred boundaries, and moves the world toward what is right."

    definition: "The contraction of a soul that has temporarily forgotten its eternal nature.",
    flip: "Every fear marks a place where you've identified with what can be lost. Meet it consciously and it becomes a doorway — what waits on the other side is the part of you that was never in danger to begin with."

    definition: "The friction between what your soul wants to create and what the world is allowing.",
    flip: "Frustration is energy asking to be redirected. It tells you the path needs adjusting, the skill needs deepening, or the timing needs surrender — never that you should give up on what truly calls you."

    pair: "Admiration",
    definition: "Old pain that has waited at the door for acknowledgment.",

    frequency: 50,
    pair: "Optimism",
    definition: "The surrender that follows when willpower has been exhausted.",
    flip: "Hopelessness, fully allowed, can crack open to grace. When you stop carrying what was never yours to carry, you make room for help, for rest, and for a direction your striving could never reach."

    pair: "Love",
    definition: "Love that has been wounded so deeply it inverted to protect itself.",
    flip: "Beneath hatred is always something cherished that was harmed. Tracing it back to its source returns the energy to its rightful place — fierce protection of what matters, rather than destruction of what threatens."

    frequency: 150,
    pair: "Empathy",
    definition: "The ego's defense against seeing itself in the other.",

    group: "negative",
    frequency: 30,
    pair: "Generosity",
    definition: "The soul's reflection on choices that took you away from your truth.",

    group: "negative",
    frequency: 75,
    pair: "Acceptance",
    definition: "Love continuing in the absence of what it loved.",
    flip: "Grief is one of the soul's most sacred passages. It does not need to be fixed or rushed — only honored. Walked through, it widens the heart in ways nothing else can, and reveals that what was truly loved is never gone."

    frequency: 30,
    pair: "Humility",
    definition: "The soul's small humility when the personality stumbled.",
    flip: "Embarrassment keeps you human and connected. It is the gentle reminder that you are not above the dance of imperfection — and that grace, not perfection, is what makes you loveable."

    group: "negative",
    frequency: 20,
    pair: "Amusement",
    definition: "The forced unveiling of what the ego was trying to hide.",
    flip: "Survived without collapse, humiliation strips you down to what no opinion can touch. What remains is your essential self — the part that was never the image, never the performance, never the role."

    frequency: 150,
    pair: "Bliss",
    definition: "Pure life-force erupting against unbearable injustice or wound.",
    flip: "Rage is not the enemy — suppression of it is. Beneath the volcano is often a child's terror or grief that was never witnessed. Bring witness to that, and the eruption transforms into clear, sovereign power."

    id: "dread",
    group: "negative",
    frequency: 100,
    pair: "Excitement",
    definition: "The heaviness of avoiding what the soul knows it must face.",
    flip: "Dread is a compass pointing at what you've been refusing to meet. The thing itself is almost always smaller than the dread of it — turn toward it and the weight begins to lift."

    id: "worry",
    group: "negative",
    frequency: 100,
    pair: "Playfulness",
    definition: "The mind rehearsing futures the soul has no jurisdiction over.",

    group: "negative",
    frequency: 100,
    pair: "Confidence",
    definition: "Doubt that arises when worth has been measured by external mirrors.",
    flip: "Insecurity is the soul's call to return its worth to its source. It will keep aching until you stop seeking proof from outside and remember that your value was never up for vote."

    frequency: 50,
    pair: "Enthusiasm",
    definition: "The ego's way of holding suffering as identity.",
    flip: "Self-pity, briefly visited, can be a sacred pause — permission to grieve, to rest, to be soft. The wisdom is in not building a home there. The soul came here to live, not to be remembered as a victim."
  },
  {
    name: "Apathy",
    id: "apathy",
    group: "negative",
    frequency: 50,
    pair: "Awe",
    definition: "The numbing of a soul that has been overwhelmed for too long.",
    flip: "Apathy is not the absence of feeling — it is feeling buried under feeling. Underneath the flatness is almost always grief, fear, or exhaustion waiting safely for permission to be felt."
  },

    id: "melancholy",
    group: "negative",
    frequency: 75,
    pair: "Passion",
    definition: "The soul's gentle ache at the beauty and brevity of being here.",
    flip: "Melancholy is not a malfunction — it is the price of having loved this world. It deepens art, prayer, and the kind of presence that knows how rare each moment truly is."

    group: "negative",
    frequency: 75,
    pair: "Contentment",
    definition: "The gap between what the mind imagined and what life delivered.",

    frequency: 150,
    pair: "Wonder",
    definition: "An idealist's armor against the pain of caring.",
    flip: "Cynicism is not the opposite of hope — it is hope that was wounded and went into hiding. Beneath the shell is the same one who once believed; meeting that one gently is how trust returns."

    frequency: 150,
    pair: "Kindness",
    definition: "A wound demanding to be witnessed by hurting the one who caused it.",

    group: "negative",
    frequency: 100,
    pair: "Relief",
