Most psychology stops at six desires; the honest map needs nine. Desire Atlas catalogs love, lust, status, power, freedom, security, revenge, validation, and the one most refuse to include — destruction. Each is a vector with a surface signal and a latent indicator, and the relevant conflicts between them shape most adult lives more than the desires themselves do. 多数心理学止于六种欲望；诚实的图谱需要九种。欲望图谱编目爱、欲、地位、权力、自由、安全、复仇、认可，以及多数人拒绝纳入的那一种——毁灭。每一种都是一个向量，带表层信号与潜在指标，而它们之间的相关冲突——比欲望本身——更塑造多数成年人的生活。
A desire's surface is what it looks like to others; its latent indicator is what your body does when no one is watching. The mismatch between the two is where most desire-driven mistakes live.欲望的表层是它在他人眼中的样子；潜在指标是无人观察时你的身体所做的事。两者的不匹配是多数欲望驱动错误所栖居的地方。
A radar plot of nine desires. The "balanced adult" profile isn't a circle — it's a slightly off-centre polygon where two or three desires dominate this season and shift over the next.九欲望的雷达图。"平衡成年人"剖面不是圆——是一个略偏心的多边形，本季由两三种欲望主导，下季会移位。
Desires are not independent vectors. The cost of pursuing one is often the suppression of another, and the conflict is what produces the felt unease.欲望并非独立向量。追求其一的代价常是压抑另一，而冲突正是被感受到的不安所由生处。
