Thank you very much for your Suggestion

I think psychiatry ought to be consigned to a mistake of the 20th century with a couple of World Wars.

Jung and personality types is the way forward. All NPs probably intuitively know this.

 

[Auburn]

ENFJ: BEAVER
Family life and charismatic, but can dam up and block the flow. Busy.

ENFP: FERRET
Enthusiastic hunter and ferreter out of information.

ENTJ: WOLF
Found in packs with one top dog who must be obeyed or defeated in battle.

ENTP: SNAKE
Alien system and cannot hear the words, only feel the vibrations. Can be isolated.

ESFJ: HORSE
Wild horses are terrifying, but they can be tamed and ridden.

ESFP: BUTTERFLY
Males are often more colourful. Lots of caterpillar style practice and shine briefly.

ESTJ: BULL
The Ox pulls the plough on behalf of the bosses. The herd can stampede and crush other animals.

ESTP: LION or TIGER
Ferocious predator, but not usually malicious. Ruthlessness can cause the same damage though.

INFJ: SKYLARK
Very complicated singing the tune.

INFP: DRAGON
Sleeps in his barrow and sometimes goes on flights. Unknown.

INTJ: HAWK
Penetrating eyesight with talons.

INTP: EAGLE
High flier in the clouds with talons.

ISFJ: MOUSE
Follows the same old trails (rule book) and can contaminate, but nice and cute if clean.

ISFP: CAT
Goes where she enjoys best advantage. Independent and unfaithful if neglected.

ISTJ: DOG
Pack animal tamed by his Master. Varied types.

ISTP: BEAR
If they are good the Bears will go to the picnic. Big and unstoppable if they want something.

ENTJ Wolf = Very good correlation, seeing as how ENTJs are also called "Leaders". I've met some in real life and they always tend to 'lead the pack' with their example. A wolf is a beautiful parallel.

ESFP Butterfly = Hehe, the ESFPs I've met always seem to be free-spirited "social butterflies". Interesting...

ESTJ Bull = No doubt. Very bold, superior in strength - though not necessarily in intellect. Hard working and may be aggressive.

INTP Eagle = Very nice! I see a beautiful parallel in the way an eagle simply observes the earth from the heavens - with keen eyesight - and the way INTPs observe reality from a detached perspective. Sober, reserved, solitary, and very rare.

INTJ Hawk = It's interesting how you chose a hawk here and an eagle for INTPs. I find that appropriate - seeing how Hawks are more openly aggressive while eagles are more passive and solitary.

ISFJ Mouse = My mother is ISFJ, and I can see how this relates to her. Family oriented - always running around, bringing food to the home. Not too wise, but a caring provider.

ISTJ Dog = Perfect! I couldn't have picked a better match. Dogs are 'trained' to follow those rules which you set for it. They obey the commands of the master (society's system).

***

The ISTP seems to me more like some sort of Ape; one that is more solitary. They are among the most "crafty" animals out there.

Also, I don't entirely see how an INFP is a Dragon. I'll try to see if I can read the "Guards! Guards!" book by Terry Pratchett - as this is where you probably got your perspective of them.

Overall, amazing work!

I agree

I really do hope they begin to incorporate type theory into the education system here.

 

[NoID10ts]

I think maybe I am beginning to understand this on some level. It's interesting. Perseus, is this your own invention or does it come from somewhere else?

 

[Perseus]

Its my own invention but it is just re-inventing the wheel. It is much more complex than I have explained and confirmed by observations.

The psychiatry which I have moaned about have something about the Monkey (Ape). They know much more than I do through the text books. I know it through unpleasant experiences.

I was writing Dragon stories before Terry Pratchett. Years and years before.
e.g

I am going to have to find a literary agent. I met a crime writer yesterday and ferreted out her agent.

ISTP is confirmed by the Great Bear Cafe. This one is well known down where the Panda is in charge. I have lived with a Bear.

That's called "Straining up under the Bear". I learnt this from a Dragon

I see...

I'd really like to read a complete guide to your theory. It sounds interesting...

Also, Perseus, I don't believe you've ever properly introduced yourself in the Introit section have you? There's a few questions there that help us get to know more about other members. Here's a list:



What is your name?



Where are you from?



How old are you?



What's your gender?



How did you find out that you were INTP (or other type)?



How did you find out about this forum?



Do you have a partner/lover?



Do you have any kids?



What is your source of income? Job?



What are your hobbies?



Role Models?



Life Goals?

I am not up to filling in forms. Relationships are in flux (whatever that means) the word came out of the blue.

I have posted a reply with links on Introit. It has to go past the Moderator.

Your quite an enigma, Perseus. Interesting links.

I have a close friend who speaks of stalkers. He's the smartest man I've ever met. Seems pretty damned connected too, when you speak with him. Actually, you can't tell he's paranoid until he decides to share his torment with you. He's told me about people walking around in passages through his walls, rearranging things in his home, jumping up and down on his roof, using advanced devices to remotely manipulate objects, and projecting thoughts and moods into his head.

My buddy supported all these wild stories with some pictures of a couple guys standing on the street by his mailbox and some stills he had stitched together into an animated gif theoretically showing people jumping up and down on his roof. His evidence was crap. From what he tells me about the guys at his mailbox, he's met them out in public, acted like a complete freak to them, and now, surprisingly enough, they treat him like one. As for the pictures of the people on the roof, there's nobody there. Just trees blowing in the wind. The jewel in his crown of proof was the fact that all these things happen to other people too.

http://www.raven1.net/glossary.htm

So, yeah. That website demonstrates that there are whole groups of paranoids out there who truly believe they are being persecuted by some huge organization. That really doesn't equate as proof of the stalkers. My buddy knows all about scientific method and proof, and would never present this kind of evidence about any rational subject.

Two final points of interest about my friend's view from over the edge:
1. Prior to being targeted by 'them', he had a strong desire to die. Being forced to defend himself has given him a perverse reason for living.
2. He's dangerous in his pursuit of that desire. He's set up surveillance and deadly traps, covered his roof in Teflon (so the roof jumpers would slip off), and engaged in week long vigils to catch them in the act.

Don't feel bad about messing with Perseus. If he's close to as far gone as my buddy, any sort of social interaction where he gets to discuss his stalkers with non-paranoids is a positive thing. They aren't getting the message that the stalkers don't exist, but it remains our responsibility to gently point the way to a more mainstream mode of thought.

 

[Perseus]

It is not an organised thing, unless you are a McCarthy-like target of the military.

Basically, it is the types, the Guards (SJ) join gangs and gang up against strangers. The Horsemen (ESFJ) conquer and provide, but are restrained by the Priests (INFP) or rival gangs employing the Watch.
