The Pluriversal Framework
TEK8
Eight Elements. Eight Guilds. Infinite Paths.
A framework mapping eight elemental forces to eight dimensions of wellness, eight forms of capital, and eight guilds of practice. Rooted in world wisdom traditions. Designed for play and learning.
The Eight Elements
Each element maps to a die, a sense, an ability, a dimension of wellness, and a form of capital. Together they describe a complete circle of human experience.
