Does this arrangement of MBTI types in spacial relation hint towards a deeper structure? 🤔

They want to give the heat, but they cannot take it.

They like ENTP’s … because most are out of touch with introverted feelings, therefore the INFJ doesn’t ever have to suffer the mirror back to their own Fi estrangement.

What is your relationship with getting to sleep "on time" and also waking up? Mine has always been troubled on the getting to sleep department. Waking up – seems to be one of wishing I did not exist, for at least the first hour.. which I have found the word "dysphoria" seems to capture best.

Seemingly the collection of things is a past-time for many. I have always had a bit of a complicated opinion on this topic .. rather than say what that is, I will ask you – your opinion instead?

A blog post exploring how my own journey through self-discovery and cognitive function theory led me to visualize and chart these patterns. After experimenting with the structure long enough, I found a way to make the pieces fit together almost like a glove. Then I stumbled onto Jung’s Systema Munditotius illustration, which sent shivers down my spine. What followed was nothing short of a spiritual transformation once I realized what I was looking at.

Your forgetting memory about who you are and what is important to you, is your super power. Your intuitive learning style around how the world operates is novel because of this and no two entp’s are likely the same.

As an INTP that has spent way too much time observing how you folks operate.. long before I had a name for you. (The pastor of the church I was forced to go to as a kid, likely ENTP)

But this isn’t me being morally indignant as I recognized i operate in similar ways. But in a different context (I am lurking in the shadows, watching 🦇, observing, data input 🤖).

I was thinking about how I might describe my conscious experience to another person .. I found the ai image generation concept of “stable diffusion” is oddly very similar.

In stable diffusion we start out with noise, when we experience the world.. we are taking in data. When that data lands on a certain part of the image, it makes a pixel brighter and of a certain hue.

Eventually over time, with enough data .. the picture becomes more defined.

The ENTP way of seeing the world is the result of lots of many diffuse samples of data landing on a canvas.

Why entp’s are as smart as they are.. that picture that eventually resolves is a masterful resolution of the world as it actually is (in some dimension). Not to say entp’s can’t mislead themselves, or pictures that resolve are always super accurate in the grand scheme .. but in some domain they will be.

I have also fashioned the word “razzing” to explain the purpose of debate. To be able to resolve that picture, you need data (Ne). Any reaction, can be useful for this purpose. How you go about producing entropy to the system can seem obtuse/unkind to others.

They don’t know why you do it, also you likely don’t know why you do it ;P now you do. No need to thank me, you’re welcome.

Debate me bro

You would call me crazy 🤪

Ask away and may all your questions be answered. In my grandiosity, I might predict this subreddit is about to get a lot busier.

The article requires some reading, but for your consideration.

In it, I explore how I accidentally drew my first mandala without knowing fully what it was. Only later to realize that I was some engaging in a timeless tradition that transcends cultures and geography.

There is seemingly an odd transition humans go through at the ages 35-45 that I was not fully warned about. Or likely I was, but I put that into the bucket of .. things that happen to other people and not me (because I'm special).

Possibly also because the colloquial term is "mid-life crisis" – but this does not accurately capture all the different forms/shapes that it comes in. Likely it looks a little bit different for each individual.

But in the tradition of passing on this wisdom so that younger INTP folks have the option to place it into the same bucket that I did ...

Here are some rules for life:

1

You matter and you have value. Hearing someone say these words to you in real-life, when they arrive in a form that is not forced or scripted is like a magical spell that only works when spoke aloud – it is some weird quirk of the psyche. So in lieu of being able to say this to you in real-life, this is the best I can do.

2

Some of you may have been trained away from trusting intuition in favour of "logic" – but intuition is one of your strongest suits. Do not seek verification with regards to something common sense can tell you is bad for you. Common sense often shows up in the form of intuition. Most importantly is the intuition that is involved in protecting yourself – as you may have received messaging that you're often wrong (cassandra syndrome) or being selfish. Stay grounded but also gain inner authority to know that you're likely right.

3

Routine (Fi) and being out in nature (Se) are your friends. Both of these are your weakest functions as they usually land in the domain of the unconscious. Intentionally forcing yourself to engage in these functions will go to change your life in all the best kind of ways. By developing routine, keeping your space clean .. will foster inner feeling. Inner feelings are required if you don't want to be a doormat for other people, also they serve as shock absorbers for life. People that don't have any inner feeling will be constantly at odds with the universe. Every inconvenient life event will be seemingly existential.

Simple cure to over-thinking/depression/anxiety is being out in nature. I mean making this into a daily thing of at least 1 hour. You will find lots of thoughts popping up while doing this activity. Record them into a voice journal, harvest them later .. they have all the sage wisdom you need to be living life to the fullest.

4

Learning to hold the tension. If you want to know why life is so hard, it is because you have no tension between cognitive functions. Once you learn the secret to building drive/purpose/energy is intentionally sitting with discomfort .. everything starts to change. But to be able to hold tension, self-esteem is required. It is a bit of a paradox as they both depend on each other. Which is why #1 is most important.

1. Someone distills down shared wisdom across millennia regarding the human consciousness – provides insight into how to live the good life via a step-by-step guide to "individuation".
2. Mother-daughter trio read his books, takes his ideas on cognitive functions – separates it from all of the perils of over identification – creates a framework that encourages over-identification.
3. MBTI communities cry/ban whenever anyone points out that certain types show certain patterns of disfunction.. saying a type isn't related to any type of mental illness.

PSA – You're only a single type if you choose the NPC route of human development (aka no development).

Seemingly a pattern is emerging based on my observation of entp folks.. a lot seem to have some pretty weird kinks and can only get off in rather specific ways.

Hypothesis: 7th PoLR functions of Fi.. goes to make that arena rather “unique”
