Hitting a creative road block with my homebrew cosmology. Domains.

Is there a reason why there have to be two axes instead of just reverting to different aspects of Order and Chaos? It worked for Chinese culture and Michael Moorcock.

Another view is that Chaos is creativity and change and creation so Life could fall there, while Death fits into the unchanging eternal aspects of Order.

 

[Voadam]

To fit into your existing sphere of Life being Order and Creation while Death is Chaos and Destruction, Chaos and Creation could be newness and change, possibility. Order and Destruction is tougher because it is going to overlap with your views of Chaos Destruction. Inevitability, inexorable decay, and entropy can work for Ordered Destruction. So Chaos Destruction is the sharp complete change of Life to Death, while Order progresses Destruction ever onward, entropy being a law of the universe.

 

[Bawylie]

Chaos/Creation = dreams, invention, imagination.
Order/Destruction = gravity, time, entropy.
