A detailed analysis of kinaesthetic directionality and mereology allows the concept of kinaesthetic empathy to be unpacked. Using Husserl’s approach to pairing and congruence, it is possible to specify how kinaesthetic empathy is established through different bodily congruences and their modifications. Four forms of kinaesthetic congruence, i.e. transposition, rotation, reflection and complementation, define the dynamics of dyadic kinaesthetic empathyDyadic empathy. As a result, the law of kinaesthetic empathy of passive switching between congruences of mirror reflection and rotated transposition is discovered.
