Note that all colors from Infrared to Green represent relationships that are difficult, impossible, unrealistic, or unattractive. Only the four squares in the upper right corner represent relationships that truly work — just 4 out of 64!
It is equivalent to 1 out of 16! Note that Alpha males derive their Alpha status (primordial power) from the Red and Amber levels. Beta males (the feminine man) have areas where their Red power is blocked. Alpha females, on the other hand, draw their power from the Orange and Green levels. Remember, you can have different colors in different areas of life.
If you know your color and your partner’s, click on your combination to learn more about your specific relationship. Below, the colors/levels are described in general terms. Note that this is an evolutionary model: if you primarily identify with Green, you generally master the levels below it, while the higher levels often remain unconscious.
It’s also possible to have lower levels that are not fully developed. For example, Green men often need to work on the Red level to regain their power and ascend to the Teal level. Green women may lack feminine power at the Red or Amber levels — if they fantasize about being swept away by a powerful, handsome man or a prince on a white steed (qualities embodied by a Red Alpha male), they may need to awaken to the Orange level and embrace realism to eventually rise to Teal.
The stages are divided into two groups, reflecting two distinct operating modes of consciousness: being, thinking, feeling, and acting.
1. Tier Consciousness (Divided Consciousness): Infrared, Magenta, Red, Amber, Orange, and Green.
This group represents individuals with only partially developed consciousness. They are divided between what they believe they are and what they believe they are not. This division often leads to indifference, projection, denial, and the externalization of guilt.
In this tier, male leaders are typically at the Orange level, while female leaders span the Orange and Green levels.
Infidelity is common within Tier 1 consciousness, particularly at the lower stages. It becomes significantly less prevalent at the Green stage.
2. Tier Consciousness (Non-Divided Consciousness): Teal and Turquoise.
This group comprises individuals who have progressed through all the earlier levels, allowing major aspects of their unconscious to surface and be integrated. They are more healed and self-aware than those in the first tier, leading to greater personal responsibility. These individuals work, think, and feel with a broader focus, often prioritizing collective or universal interests over personal ones.
People in this tier are not controlled by their Shadow (fear or anxiety). Our future leaders are likely to emerge from these levels.
Although individuals at Teal and Turquoise are often accused of being naive due to their values and morals stemming directly from the heart, such accusations typically originate from lower levels (Red, Amber, Orange, and Green). These critics lack significant contact with the Teal level (The Heart) and, instead of striving to elevate themselves, attempt to pull the next level down to their own. In doing so, they risk diminishing the greater qualities of those higher levels.
To truly grow, one must learn and ascend.
1. Infrared – Instinctive
- Sexuality: Focused on survival. The male’s primary contribution to evolution is semen.
- Falling in Love/Turning On: Instinctual lust driven by the reptilian brain’s ability to assess a partner’s immune defense via pheromones. High attraction occurs when the partner’s immune system is significantly different from one’s own. Conversely, no attraction arises if the immune systems are identical.
- Strengths: Strong instincts.
- Weaknesses: Purely survival-focused; exploitation of others.
- Examples: Self-centered, lust-based behavior; “me, me, me” mentality.
- Psychological Age: Corresponds to the developmental stage from conception to 1 year old.
- Evolutionary Level: The Infrared level emerged approximately 50,000 years ago.
- Most Active Brain: The reptilian brain.
- Values: Survival.
- Needs: Food, water, warmth, sex, and safety.
- Motivation: Instinct-driven.
- Other Characteristics: Life and death dynamics dominate. If this is the sole level developed, it correlates with Alzheimer’s disease.
- Population Statistics: Approximately 1% of the adult population in the U.S.

3. Red – Ego-centered
- Sexuality: Sex is used as a means of temporary relief.
- Falling in Love/Turning On: Highly projective. Happiness is perceived as dependent on a partner. Initially, individuals see their positive projections in their partner, but over time, negative projections also surface. Partners are expected to bring happiness, leading to infatuation. People often speak of “connection” when they unconsciously agree on a mutual exchange to satisfy needs. This stage corresponds to the “bad boy/nice girl” dynamic.
- Strengths: Power, independence, autonomy (often excessive); creativity, spontaneity, innovation, originality; emotional vibrancy, carefreeness, dominance, and aliveness.
- Weaknesses: Stubbornness and a desire for control. Quick gratification through sex, drugs, alcohol, shopping, and gambling. Associations include street gangs, narcissism, and exploitative dynamics (e.g., pimp/whore relationships). Focused on short-term actions.

6. Green – Pluralistic
- Sexuality:
- Gender roles are reversed, leading to challenges in commitment and fidelity.
- Green men often face impotence, erectile dysfunction, or premature ejaculation, though these issues typically resolve upon transitioning to Teal. They learn about femininity, becoming more sensitive and better lovers than those in earlier stages.
- Green women may struggle with being present during sex, overthinking instead of experiencing.
