Who’s test did you use?
You have Secondary and Tertiary functions too. Under MBTI (it gas some issues) tritary functions aren’t encoded to the 16 types… but more advanced theories have done a better job mapping it out.
Example, I am a INTJ based more in the Right Supplementary Motar Area. INTJs like me are expected to go in a INTJ, ENTJ, ISTP cycle. Its how I can survive doing guard stuff with a fully active mind, switch between being out going and in charged, or reserved and contributing to leadership needs in anticipation. Someone like Shield Maiden is based in the Left Motor area… you see it play out in her arguments and retorts. We can switch off to either system largely at will.
You gotta look at how the MBTI type relates to a function of the mind, isolate it in a node, and look at the expected functions of neighboring brains regions in the cytoarchitecture. Cause and effect triggers.
Sauwelios as a INTP is in the Thalamus. Very low raw intelligence on the one hand coupled with a high degree of mental interconnect I need, but it’s not in control of the mental operations like I am, but merely the end reviever. Most philosophers fall into this part of the mind I’m told (I’m trying to dispute this statistically, I doubt the claim. Most modern academics certainly yes, but not most philosophers in history). They don’t do much, are general let downs and cause more problems than they are worth.
You also go guys in the Basal Ganglia (Zoots Allure) who process a lot of the imagination, ate highly impulsive and don’t think shit out… they just do, don’t think about it.
They are the first strata in the mind, followed by guys like me… we network most of the mind actively together (Nietzsche was a INTJ too, just to point out, Google it). After my function, it is processed to a third tier, which mostly receives it subconsciously. Such people see themselves in everyone, can’t ever be convinced they aren’t any one type, etc. It is usually the first indication they are based in the Thalamus.
I recall they have a unique quirk. Given how that part of the mind is structured, there is a fully conscious feedback loop, where they can “see” the feedback loop at one point, thinking a thought… see it processed, and then see it loop back around the brain from the other side of the brain to be reworked.
A lot if the Dionysian vs Apollo crap comes from this divide… thalamus has periphial interaction with the excitable basal ganglia, and basal ganglia has little to do with the thalamus… my brain region does the networking… so these people can flip flop at times. It doesn’t feel like a flip flop to be, but two functions always there.
If you look at Donald Trump… he is SMA ENTJ with strong Basal traits like Zoots or Magsj… but next to nothing like Sauwelios or Zinnati. Sauwelios or Zinnati would melt in the presence of such a person. I wouldn’t, just wouldn’t care… someone like Arc based in the Right Frontal Lobe would freak out though… he would get her but she wouldn’t get him.
Brain is stratified into four areas… quarters… each a dominate personality type. The Basal, SMA, and Thalamus links these areas… Basal is controlled by the SMA, Thalamus recieves and throttles my area (you see Zinnsti try to do this unsuccessfully, largely because he is ignorant… it is his instinct to do so, whatever the facts, until he gets comfortable facts).
So you end up with roughly 7 brain regions, that have crainial nerves linking feedback loops from one region to the next. These crainial nerves are your MBTI primary functions.
INTJ is in the right hemisphere. Links if I recall the right parietal to the SMA. If I have a brain lesion that effects this, I cease to exist… I switch to a different brain region. But if I get hit in the thalamus, Ill just turn into a Insomniac. Its happened to me before. But I know some INTPs who can’t suffer such sleep irregularities, it destroys them… they gave to keep a schedule.
Brain isn’t that hard to use.
Oh… your astrology matrix… that’s the right parietal lobe processing through to the left dorsal lateral (left dorsal lateral is Orbie). It goes through my region.
Go search Buckminister Fuller. He sits most fully on unifying this process. You’re either Right Paritisl, with some INTJ, a low performing SMA INTJ (I’m moderately high, near manic genius but not quite the top of the pyrimid of all), or one of the final feedback loops in the Thalamus observing through my function my coordination of the Right to Left processing. Then Shield Maiden Returns it. I see it through Zoot Allures imagination. Bishop Berkeley thinks I’m God apparently.
I used the thought processes of various members of the forum to explain basic processed.
If you go to a archaic system like the Seriphot:
Your little matrix chart is a product of Heard, Hokhmat, and Da’at.
Its a shitty neurological map, but not too bad… still lists a lot of the crainial nerves linking up brain regions. All MBTI does is map those lines that link those globes together. Its not the Seriphot themselves, but what links them. Okay?
Technically, Da’at should be where Keter is, and Keter where Da’at is… as Keter matches up with contributor in description… (INTPs like Sauwelios are in Terefet, they can’t see all our functions)… many dominate in the left hemisphere don’t believe Da’at links up with Hokhmat in the right… basically your graph… like I said, they receive a lot of info, but throttle it down and don’t know how the ideas were worked out.
So what have we learned? We learned why Lev Muiskin us a judgmental bitch in the last paragraph. He is based in the bright parietal, like Cedar/History Boy, isn’t aware how Keter (in this graph, Da’at) visualizes,and constructs the empty data before sending but piecemeal to Orbie to construct with raw theoretical data, linking point to point… to Shield Maiden who like Karl Marx and Zikek in the lLeft Supplimenrary together, back to me who links it together to historical, biographical, technological data… for Lev Muishkin to accept or reject once more… then it gets tossed in mad torrents by me back to Sauwelios or Zinnato who are timid scared little fucks who can’t take that much raw data, and take in little bits and pieces, and rely heavily on group efforts (or sick over reliance on sources they don’t understand enough to systematically criticize) for final working.
When you see people falling in attacking Trump, it’s usually just the Thalamus. Ironically, these people tend to work for such people as assistants. INTPs are very compatible with INTJs, thrive off the raw data, trying to control the psychology of the bucking broncho but can’t. INTJs can tolerate this pragmatically, but find such individuals increasingly one dimensional given they lack much insights into the Basal Ganglia.
Lots of imformation. Proof of it is how it will be taken.
Lev … lacking Zoots ability to visualize what I just said (Zoot would explain what he got of it to him) will reject it… saying bullshit. Why? Hesed doesn’t directly link up to Binah… Orbie is his unconscious opposite. Shield Maiden isn’t going to be as interested in my info, as it didn’t come from Hesed… where a lot of her data arrives. I will know this in advance though, as I sent it to him, and am awaiting it’s return from her… and I will complete the abstract statistical into concrete real… she is even tempted to say I don’t know what I am talking about exactly here… I know cause I hear that part of my mind… I can become it at will, switching back and forth, but my primary is here. I show it to Lev… Lev goes “WTF!”, rejects aspects without understanding the whole… the concrete mixes with memories from Arc, and emotions, sighs, Semotics, Emojis… it becomes a maddening while while where I run out of paper, and start writing equations out of my own feces on the wall. Sauwelios or Zinnati observes I utterly insane, yet brilliant… isolate my “insanity” while taking a few “equations” from the wall.
What else tries to check this? The seventh part, language center in my left hemisphere (Smears) who is prone to anger, has a serious dark side and is deeply defensive about protecting itself. Arc likes this aspect of mind more than I do, hence my right hemisphere preference.
Also, a aspect of Orbie via Only Humean, that isn’t able to take the severeness of the raw data the SMA pumps through it, or Zoots and Jokers behavior. It weeks compartment, ettiwuette, balance. Likes logic… not full logical statements, but constructing them. Enjoys reading. Has unimpressive dreams. Joins very boring churches. Not to be confused though with the Thalamus, which generally finds it easier to relate to this severe Stoic aspect than the Epicurian pleasures and skepticusm aspects of the right. Why? Buckminuster Fuller… they run the risk of tripping that, causing a need for deep, fanatical devotion on the basis of social need to gix things absolutely… it’s all his best traits minus my ability to modulate the feedback loops. Yep… INTPs… scared little INTPs, are your crazy fucking little Cultists. Very thin line between scientific skepticism andvreligioys devotion. Not too surpringing, see Swedenborg. He was based in just Lev’s area, had a stroke, activated consciously mine and Zoots area simultaneously, had very advanced visions. Built a highly systematic religion out of it, impressed the Zen master Suzuki greatly in the twentieth century.
That is MBTI in a nutshell.
The old British guy, Amorphous, I think his name is, used to be Thalamus a few years back (he describes people on visual psychological representations) but now has better integrated a few other aspects of the mind. INTPs can eventually do thus, but have a tendency to just jump ship and switch personality types to said region. He is in the long process of transition, doesn’t occur overnight.
I need a sandwich.
