Clear terms, fewer false equivalences

Concepts and comparisons

Popular relationship and symbolic-practice terms often overlap, but they come from different traditions and are used in different ways. A clear definition makes it easier to notice where a comparison helps and where it distorts.

These glossaries and comparisons explain origin, common usage, meaningful differences and limits. They are designed for orientation rather than labeling a person or relationship.
