Student Led Discussion: Intersectionality and Identity

Wheel of Awareness and the Plane of Possibility

Dr. Dan Siegle

[Whole Class Activity] Listen to Wheel of Awareness and the Plane of Possibility

Here is an image of “The Wheel of Awareness.” The hub represents the experience of awareness itself — knowing — while the rim contains all the points of anything we can become aware of, that which is known to us. We can send a spoke out to the rim to focus our attention on one point or another on the rim. In this way, the wheel of awareness becomes a visual metaphor for the integration of consciousness as we differentiate rim-elements and hub-awareness from each other and link them with our focus of attention.
