D. Operator Reference
D.1 Hamiltonian Components
The Destiny Hamiltonian decomposes as:
$$\hat{H}_{destiny} = \hat{H}_{transit} + \hat{H}_{stage} + \hat{H}_{choice} + \hat{H}_{env}$$
| Component | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| $\hat{H}_{transit}$ | Planetary transit influences | Astrological calculations |
| $\hat{H}_{stage}$ | Life stage transitions | Developmental psychology |
| $\hat{H}_{choice}$ | Free will contributions | Subject's decisions |
| $\hat{H}_{env}$ | Environmental factors | External circumstances |

F. Glossary
- Archetype
- A universal pattern of human experience that appears across cultures and traditions. MetaDestiny identifies 108 fundamental archetypes.
- Destiny State Vector
- The complete quantum mechanical description of an individual's destiny, expressed as a superposition of archetype basis states.
- Probability Landscape
- A visualization of how probabilities for various outcomes vary across time and choice space.
- Destiny Tunneling
- The phenomenon whereby low-probability transitions can occur, analogous to quantum tunneling through potential barriers.
- Observer-Participant
- The model in which the person receiving a reading is not a passive subject but an active participant whose consciousness affects outcomes.
- MetaDestiny (命数 Mìngshù)
- Chinese term meaning "destiny number" or "fate calculation." The namesake of the MetaDestiny framework.
- Superposition
- The quantum mechanical principle that a system can exist in multiple states simultaneously until measured.
- Entanglement
- The correlation between destiny states of connected individuals, such that measuring one affects the other.
