Two amplifiers facing each other. Thrilling at low volume, dangerous at high.
Feedback Loop is the Third Entity that emerges when Spike meets Spike. The relationship itself becomes its own character — shaped not just by your archetypes, but by how your energy styles interact. The same Third Entity can feel completely different depending on whether your energy styles are aligned, complementary, or different.
Two Spikes create the Feedback Loop. It shows up when both people operate at maximum intensity — the energy in the room doubles every time one person escalates. This dynamic is most visible during creative bursts, heated debates, and ambitious projects where both people refuse to be the one who backs down.
Two amplifiers facing each other create feedback at high volume. The Loop is thrilling at low intensity but dangerous at high — arguments escalate faster than either person intends, and without a dimmer switch, small disagreements become memorable explosions.
Both people share the same energy style. Communication is effortless but growth requires intention.
What works
The energy between you is unmistakable. You both know exactly how to fuel the other because you speak the same emotional language at maximum volume.
What causes friction
Two amplifiers create feedback at high volume. When things go wrong, they go wrong fast and loud.
What to do this week
Agree on a safe word for when the volume needs to come down. Use it without ego.
Energy styles naturally fill each other's gaps. The balance is organic but can become invisible.
What works
One of you amplifies while the other modulates. Together you create controlled intensity -- the kind that builds things instead of breaking them.
What causes friction
The modulator might feel responsible for managing the amplifier's energy. That is not their job.
What to do this week
Let the louder one handle their own volume this week. Resist the urge to manage.
Energy styles contrast sharply. This creates the most friction — and the most potential for unexpected growth.
What works
Your different approaches to care mean the feedback loop never becomes monotone. Every cycle adds something unexpected.
What causes friction
The loop might feel broken when it is just running at a frequency you do not recognize. Different is not disconnected.

Share one thing about how you feel appreciated that you have never told anyone.
