It has confused me for quite some time that Hitler would be an INFJ!!!

On the one hand, he had strong opinions and wanted to shape the world according to his worldview. This means that he was a J,a judger. On the other hand, he seemed rather simple: He presented binary opinion: "Either you are with me, or against me!!!". This seems untypical of introvert thinking, which prefers a grey scale of truths whenever possible. And yet INFJs have internal thinking and old souls. This is a contradiction. And he was definitely an untypical feeler.

I came across the Michael Teachings recently[1]. It claims to be a product of transcendental souls, older than many of you INFJs, "old souls". Thus, anything that they are saying should be a matter of fact not theory, when it comes to cosmic matters. (I do not know whether this is an authority, please tell me if I am wrong. I am really new to New Age!!! There are plenty of scams out there. :wave: :confused:)

They claim that Hitler was a warrior soul [2]. But INFJs seem to be artist souls. I judge this from Nicole Kidman, Jimmy Carter and Gillian Anderson. They seem to be IFNJs, or artisans [2] with an emotional center [3]. And then INTJs (e.g., Hillary Clinton, Matt Damon) seem to be artisans with an intellectual center [3].

So my conclusion is that Hitler was a young soul as stated, or a perhaps a baby soul (they typically have a binary worldview [4]), rather than a mature soul or an old soul. And he was not an artisan, but a warrior. I want to emphasize soul age rather than role[5] in this matter.

(As for INTPs, I think that they are scholars with an intellectual center, but that is another matter.)

I've seen it suggested that Hitler was an ESTP and that INFJ was his shadow type. However, based on what we actually know about Hitler, it doesn't really matter because he was so crazy and drugged up that his extreme behavior can't be explained by MBTI.
