I retook this because I was a little confused with some of the description of the tri type I ended up with. Got exactly the same thing again.
Result: Tritype 469/649/946 - The Seeker
469, 496
Shared Trait: Triple Self-doubting
Fixes: 4, 6, 9 (in any order)
General Profile: This is one of the most vulnerable and soft-mannered tritypes. They often struggle with issues of identity and where they fit in. They are highly sensitive to the reactions and behavior of others which may make them difficult to get close to, but usually also makes them highly considerate of where others are coming from. They can have difficulty standing up for themselves without dramatic or passive aggressive behavior, though they are quick to support others in a gentle and loving way when those others are mistreated. They tend to have a whimsical and innocent air about them which belies a deep gravity inside of them - the weight of the never-ending search for truth. Many of these individuals have difficulty expressing themselves in a direct or pragmatic way, preferring to use imagery and abstract concepts. This tritype is over-represented among poets.
If Core 4: The most friendly 4. Due to the double Attachment fixations, they lack the aloofness of many 4s. They are still reserved, but are more responsive to others’ needs and less lost in their heads. They have more of a desire to share their inner life and to have it validated. They are still moody, but they have more of a sense of humor about themselves and their lives. Their creative work, while raw, is also welcoming. Likeliest instinctual variant: so/sp
If Core 6: The most reserved 6. Their quirky behavior may mask their conscientiousness, but not their anxiety. They can be described as “squirrely.” They seek belonging as much as any other 6, but it may be in more unusual spaces and among more reserved people - groups of “misfits”, as it were. They may dismay that they desire more solidarity than their compatriots. Their convictions can be easily disrupted by disapproval from outside sources, triggering a moral crisis. They openly seek protection from such instances by aligning with like-minded, like-experienced groups. Likeliest instinctual variant: sp/so
If Core 9: The most emotional 9. They are less outwardly calm, but nonetheless make their desire for a secure and harmonious environment known. They often experience or express a disconnect between the self and the emotions, portraying them in more indirect ways - it is catharsis rather than the expression of something stable. Like Type 4, they use their imaginative faculties to form and maintain a sense of self. Like many 9s, they are spiritual, but they may find spiritual inspiration in unconventional and unexpected venues such as literature. Likeliest instinctual variant: so/sx
Likely MBTI: INFP, ISFP, ISFJ, INFJ, INTP
469, 496
- most sensitive/doubting 4 especially if SO, focused on mysteries of life, seeks truth, insecure, seek multiple resources to be certain. The SX 469/496 wants the security that comes with a trusted relationship. Grief can feel overwhelming and many feel flooded. Grief brings up fear. Shy 4 but they do have their own opinions, they are just reluctant to voice them, the normative 4. They can get passive and can let a lot of years go by spinning on the same ungroundedness, not really pushing themselves out there for fear of rejection and not being what they envision themselves to be. They have a lot of "go along" energy that they fall back on when they need emotional and psychic rest. It can play itself out in the social realm via shame, feeling utterly different, feeling hunted when very insecure (with no real external evidence to back the feeling up) and then by succumbing to a desire to merge with the group by lying down and playing 'dead' like a puppy. The merging brings short-term relief until their need to express themselves takes over. If they can't, they feel sickened by their lack of authenticity. If they can, they do which opens them up to feeling exposed and ashamed again so they withdraw to avoid feeling hunted.
- 469 - The Anxious Individualist. Highly intuitive, dutiful, but full of doubt. Want to be different and authentic whilst feeling shame about that difference.
- 496 - The Truth Seeker. Emotive, deep feeling, truth seeker. Push and pull between individualism and merging with the crowd.
