Robert Plutchik created a wheel of emotions in 1980 which consisted of 8 basic emotions and 8 advanced emotions each composed of 2 basic ones.

Eight Basic Emotions

• Joy
• Sadness
• Trust
• Disgust
• Fear
• Anger
• Surprise
• Anticipation

Basic Emotion  ⇄  Basic Opposite

• Joy  ⇄  Sadness
• Trust  ⇄  Disgust
• Fear  ⇄  Anger
• Surprise  ⇄  Anticipation

Combination of Basic Emotions (A + B)  =  Advanced Human Emotions (Opposite Advanced Emotion in Parentheses)

• Anticipation + Joy  =  Optimism (Disapproval)
• Joy + Trust  =  Love (Remorse)
• Trust + Fear  =  Submission (Contempt)
• Fear + Surprise  =  Awe (Aggression)
• Surprise + Sadness  =  Disappointment (Optimism)
• Sadness + Disgust  =  Remorse (Love)
• Disgust + Anger  =  Contempt (Submission)
• Anger + Anticipation  =  Aggression (Awe)

I actually had this diagram from my psychology class and I started writing a series or fics based on all the emotions.

But this one is way more detailed I’ll have to save it.

I’m rebloging this for the sole reason that it looks like a flower.

Rule #1 of Tumblr:

you must reblog our creator whenever he comes up on your dash

david karp looks through the notes of this post, puts all the urls he sees onto the safe list, then deletes the rest of the blogs. reblogging this post is like when the jews put the lamb’s blood on their doorposts so the angel of death wouldn’t kill their firstborns.

Must reblog for that comment

That comment, my God..
