01 First Order/Resolution Conditions/Shift

Shift

Shift names resolution where bearing relocates orientation without yielding, failing, or being lost. Where hold names resolution staying the same and yield names a give under strain, shift names bearing resolving into a changed orientation — the condition takes a new bearing-direction while carrying continues, with nothing discharged, deformed, or collapsed. Shift is not failure and not transfer; it is determined reorientation that remains the same condition under a new direction.

Read

Shift becomes recognisable where resolved bearing relocates its orientation rather than staying, giving, exiting, or failing — where the condition is read as having changed direction while remaining itself.

Structural Role

Shift is a first-order resolution condition. It is one way bearing resolves, alongside hold, yield, release, transfer, and absorb. It names reorientation without loss, not a bridge before resolution.
