Compare and Contrast: DYT Yin/Yang lineup vs. Kitchener Essences

 

Compare and Contrast Time!

Trying to figure out “essence” in context of the systems I already know.  (I maybe just need somebody to tell me what essences I am and how to apply that information.)

I’ll start with DYT and the Yin/Yang lineup (publicly available)

DYT doesn’t have a T/s team that is pure yin or yang, so it isn’t a true lineup.

But if I look at (for example) my cluebomb of T1s2 (which does fit me), that’s about 2/3 down the “yangishness” list.

If I go about 2/3 of the way down the Kitchener essences, I end up at Ingenue (T1?) and Romantic (s2?) and maybe a touch of Angelic.

In the “your color style” quiz I ended up with “casual” and went with “elevated casual”

I know that for some, these won’t line up at all.

For some, they’ll make sense. 

I know, I’m trying to cheat by not putting a whole lot of time and brain power into figuring out my essences, if it’s right there on the list.  😉

DYT Yin/Yang lineup (in order of yangishness):

T3s1 = Yang, yang, yang, yin

T3s4 = Yang, yang, yin, yang

T1s3 = Yang, yin, yang, yang

T4s3 = yin, yang, yang, yang

T3s2 = yang, yang, yin, yin

T1S4 = Yang, yin, yin, jang

T4s1 = Yin, yang, yang, yin

T2s3 = Yin, yin, yang, yang

T1s2 = yang, yin, yin, yin

T4s2 = yin, yang, yin, yin

T2s1 – yin, yin, yang, yin

T2s4 – yin, yin, yin, yang

 

Kitchener's 7 style essences are (from yangishness to yinness):

Dramatic

Gamine

Natural
