*But the diagonal points are, I think, generally dynamic: and Unity is at +C†I~, Diversity at A~. Why, then, is multiple personality at R~ (near +C†I~), and single-mindedness at U~ (near A~)?

The answer has two parts.*** First, I think, we are looking at static points of a dynamic process: the analogy may be with Quantum Physics, in that it may be impossible to specify position (static) and velocity (dynamic) at the same moment. Multiplicity (of mind) and single-mindedness must be seen not only in the context of the essentially static cardinal points, but within the dynamic structure of the two Circles. The Outer Circle is, overall, a separating Circle,** even though it comes back to +C†I~; the Inner Circle is, overall, a fusing Circle, even though it passes through A~. The positions of Multiplicity and Single-mindedness, in relation to Unity and Diversity, must be understood in this context, on each Circle. I find it difficult to put it more clearly or more precisely than that.
