MBTI 101: What Do the Letters Mean? (Part 2)

Intuition (N) vs Sensing (S)

The different between intuitives and sensors is probably the biggest difference in the MBTI! Sensors also outnumber intuitives in the real world 3:1, although tumblr is PACKED with iNtuitive types...

Why N? Why not I?

That’s because we already have an I (for introversion) - and the last thing anyone wants to do is make the random strings of letters which make up MBTI type even LESS memorable... 16 personalities tried to come up with snazzy names for each of the types, but they don’t always describe them well. Personally I prefer the descriptions you see on here, even though they’re not always flattering!

So What’s the Difference?

Overall, sensors and intuitives think differently. Sensors tend to think sequentially/neatly, whereas intuitives have messier thoughts which range all over the place. Sensing deals strictly with what exists or what existed as it it, whereas intuition adds a second layer of personal or abstract meaning to any sensory experience.

Does intuition in MBTI mean the same as the general definition?

Yes and no. It includes everything you’d use the word for generally but it also refers to a specific style of thought. Intuition works differently in each type and can be extroverted or introverted, but that’s something better saved for another post!

Are YOU An iNtuitive?

You’re on tumblr. Duh. Of course you are. Unless you’re an aesthetically minded SP type who’s here for dreamy photos, fashion, and art. In all seriousness, tumblr has an abundance of intuitive types compared to other social media. In fact, most of the reasons it’s referred to fondly as a ‘shithole of a website’ or other variants are because intuitive types are, well, a bit odd. You could say we’re eccentric, but that doesn’t fully explain it. You can be strongly or weakly intuitive too. I’m a strong intuitive, but you can probably tell that by the fact I run this nerdy blog ;-)

Intuitive types often experience:

More mental health issues

Feelings of being different

Huge imagination and a tendency to escape into fantasy

A draw to the deeper things in life

Depending on your type, you might be into topics considered geeky or esoteric

May be diagnosed with autism, add, adhd, or a similar disorder

Dislike of small talk

Why do I see so much hate for sensors?

As intuitive types are outnumbered, discovering MBTI and finding explanations for your quirks can be extremely validating. However, a life of not fitting with society - which is built by and for sensors - can live some intuitive types a little embittered. However, the fun loving, artisanal SP types also struggle, even if their cognitive style is more similar to SJ types. Ultimately, I believe MBTI should be used as a tool to promote understanding between types - not to divide.

MBTI 101 - What Do the Letters Mean (Part One)

This is for @hellokittymbti !

If you’ve hung out on the MBTI side of tumblr for a while, you might be familiar with the letters of the 16 personalities or have heard of ‘cognitive functions’ - but what do these actually mean?

Due to lots of online guides being overcomplicated, I thought I’d make my own!

WHAT DO THE LETTERS MEAN?

Your MBTI type with have either:

I or E

N or S

F or T

P or J

I VS E

This simply stands for introversion or extroversion. It tells you where you get your energy from. Being an introvert means you get your energy from your inner world.

WHAT IT DOES NOT MEAN:

You hate people

You’re antisocial

You sit on tumblr all day, never going outside

Being an extravert, on the other hand, means you get your energy from the outside world.

WHAT IT DOES NOT MEAN:

You love people

You’re shallow

You get your energy from people - it’s a myth that introversion and extraversion are about people. You can be an extravert and get your energy from external stimulation, like ideas - think of an ENTP (memelords/crazy inventors!)

I’ll follow up with part 2, S vs N! This is perhaps one of the biggest differences in the MBTI

A Reading for Trans* People

This is a rare personal post. When I first started this blog I meant to just focus on tarot and depth psych. However, I realised those two topics INEVITABLY involved healing and self exploration.

TL;DR - if you’re trans* or non binary and you don’t feel comfortable with the social expectations of your transition process, you’re not broken. It might be cptsd (complex trauma) your MBTI type, your enneagram, or something else. I’ve been through it and you’re definitely not alone.

A personal confession: I am a trans guy and in the process of transitioning, I really really struggled with standing up for what I needed. I felt totally alienated from the image of trans people I saw in the media which was very extroverted, out and proud. And that’s great- if that’s your natural inclination. However, I found it very difficult.

Turns out I had a deep fawn response due to unrelated cptsd. I was constantly monitoring my social environment and had become a social chameleon, giving people what I thought they wanted, and this stopped me moving forward with my transition process. As an INFJ, I also thought this was a normal and healthy part of my personality. It wasn’t! However, I am healing from this with a great therapist. I also want to thank @hath-a-slay for setting off this realisation.

If you are trans/non binary and struggling with conforming to how you think you should be doing things, or struggling with transition - THIS READING IS FOR YOU.

You are NOT broken

You are NOT ‘doing it wrong’

You are still trans

You CAN find a process which works for you

The card on the left is the reversed ten of cups. This position represents your pre-transition self.

This card normally represents abundance and happiness when upright. Although reversed cards can have may meanings, here it’s clear: you are not happy. This realisation can be tough and can open up whole new fears. I won’t pretend it’s easy because I’ve been through it and it isn’t! However, this is an opportunity to start treating yourself the way you deserve to be treated. This is a continuous process requiring constant learning, but you are definitely not alone.

The centre card represents your transition process. Here it’s the two of wands. This card has so many meanings and all of them are applicable here. It can show new horizons and potential, a fork in the road, and choices.

However, there is nothing in this card which means you have to do things a certain way. In fact, quite the opposite! It is a card about moving forward with boundless possibilities. The only thing it requires from you is the courage and open mindedness to step forward into the new life it indicates. You can do that ANY way which feels comfortable for you. Increased trans visibility has been very helpful in many ways - but remember that your transition is yours alone and just because it doesn’t match the majority it doesn’t mean it’s wrong!

The last card, showing life beyond the transition process, is the seven of cups reversed. Upright this represents a wealth of choices and potential, though in a more overwhelming and perhaps mystifying way than the two of wands.

This shows the work isn’t over after transition finishes. Starting a new life involves the need to clarify your mind and comfort yourself if you are overwhelmed. The aftermath of the realisations and inner work transition often brings up is just as important as the process itself. However, this card does represent increased clarity and the simplification or perhaps overwhelming possibilities. Overthinking may give way to a more secure sense of reality. Stay strong!

I don’t normally ask for reblogs as I want to let my content speak for itself. However, I wonder how many other trans* people have struggled with feeling like they’re not doing things ‘correctly’?

If you are trans/non binary or you know someone who is, or even if you just think people could benefit from from seeing this, please reblog! Tarot and MBTI were two of the biggest tools I used to help understand why I needed to do things differently and what I was struggling with. Also, let me know if you’d like more content like this or more LGBTQIA+ readings, more content on LGBTQIA+ and MBTI, or any other requests just drop a message into my ask box!

Complex trauma can DEFINITELY interfere with the transition process. You might have to do things differently. Rare MBTI types (especially IN- types) might also struggle, as might certain enneagram types. If this resonates with you, you are NOT broken.

An experimental “hero’s journey” tarot -

The hero’s journey was created by Joseph Campbell, who analysed myths and stories from all over the world and noticed the same pattern repeating throughout. The pattern tells of the progress of the main character, hero, or protagonist from an ‘ordinary world’ through their first challenge and a point in the ‘abyss’ where it seems all hope is lost and they are required to face their dark side.

Depth psychologists and philosophers in the 20th century drew parallels between mythology and the processes of self development within the human psyche as each individual sheds the persona they show society, becoming truer to themselves. This too involves a psychological journey from the ordinary state of mind, passing many challenges along the way.

As a partly psychological tool, tarot can help facilitate this. I developed an experimental hero’s journey tarot spread with five cards, each representing a different part of the journey. From left to right they span from the ordinary world, the ‘call to adventure’, the first challenge, the abyss, and the resolution. However, as both tarot and depth psychology involve a huge amount of energy beyond what a reader can immediately pick up, some of the cards on this spread surprised me as they did not make sense with the stages of the journey - either the spread or my interpretation needs further examining. This is a spread I am going to continue developing, so watch this space!

You and ENTP

ENTP, in the middle, can be tricky to pin down. Sometimes it is said they leave chaos in their wake. As intuitive dominants, and as perceivers, they may not be the most orderly of types ... the eight of pentacles represents the fruits of labour, or working slowly and steadily... with ENTP, the card is not so much turned on it’s head, but thrown out entirely ;-)

Left - what you think of ENTP - ace of cups reversed - the reversed ace of cups represents blocked energy, or energy flowing or spilling out of place. Whilst sometimes this can refer to missed opportunities or blockages in normal tarot, here is describes how the ENTP can be perceived to have no method in their madness at all, with ideas flowing left, right, and centre ... however, this is not necessarily the case ~

Right - how ENTP sees you - four of pentacles reversed - the four of pentacles is a miserly card, showing clinging to ideas, material possessions, or wealth, or an inability to let go. This can certainly be how some heavily intuitive ENTPs see other types - especially the SJ types - but remember the ENTP can be extreme themselves. Give a little, and they will thank you for it - but ultimately, there is a need to trust their somewhat eccentric ways of doing things really do lead to results ...

Like my INFJ post, this spread indicates a misunderstanding between a relatively unusual or extreme type, and the rest of the personality types. Both INFJs and ENTPs can be misunderstood by those who don’t know them well. However, strong intuitive should also realise its in their own interests to meet others in the middle - something I had to learn myself.

[infj-tarot-reader]

You and INFJ

Middle - INFJ - Death - due to their natural privacy, INFJs can be somewhat unpredictable. Their dominant Ni and inferior Se mean they are constantly looking to the future, as symbolised here by the tarot card Death, which brings about change

Left - what you think of INFJ - three of pentacles reversed - the three of pentacles is generally not to do with thinking or feeling and instead indicates difficulties with teamwork or unfair division of labour. However, in this position it shows there is more to INFJ than meets the eye - even when it looks like they’re not working or doing anything practical, remember their dominant Ni is constantly working subconsciously to hone in on new perspectives...

Right - what INFJ thinks of you - nine of wands reversed - wands is a suit of creativity and ideas, which the INFJ excels at. Reversed it points strongly to stagnation and stalemate, and shows the need for introspection. Sometimes INFJ can get lost in their mystical tendencies and may see you as stagnant or not introspective enough

This spread shows a difference of ideas and values surrounding the INFJ’s intuition. However, it is possible to resolve it if both sides talk more about their differences and understand what makes the other tick...

[infj-tarot-reader]

Enneagram 9 - Past, Present, Future

The enneagram 9 has a tendency to withdraw from the world - similar to type 5, although with different motivations. 

This spread shows you may have been going through a personal crisis to do with your withdrawal. The ace of pentacles reversed in the past indicates you have missed out - there may have been rewards and opportunities you did not go for, and now you are contemplating this- shown by the hanged man reversed, a clear card of decision making and life’s crossroads. 

However, the knight of swords shows the energy, determination, and power which are yours if you make the right decision. It may not be easy to introspect and examine the reasons for your self sabotage - but great things await you if you can! 

[infj-tarot-reader]

MBTI Intuitive Thinkers Tarot

Intuitive thinkers, the top card represents you, or how you feel/perceive yourself. The four of wands reversed can sometimes indicate broken communication or gulfs between people/in interpersonal relationships. NTs are one of the most misunderstood groups of the MBTI, especially if you’re strongly NT. Much more sensitive deep down than others may imagine, you can sometimes lose touch with your own feelings. This card indicates an area to focus on - your feelings aren’t all bad, and if you feel isolated, likeminded people will be there for you if you pay attention to your feelings, as well as your thoughts. 

The sensors (bottom left), don’t see any of this, however. The star can sometimes indicate spirituality and elevation away from the mundanities of human existence. Your mysterious demeanour may make some sensing types look up to you - not knowing about your inner reality. 

The feelers (bottom right) see you as the ten of swords. You can be blunt. Or maybe that’s sharp. Ouch. 

However, all is not lost. Thinking, in the MBTI, doesn’t mean you cannot feel, but merely that you value logic and rationality more. However, it’s ok to value your feelings too. They can become a practical tool which tells you when to make changes in your life - and your relationship with feeling types will get better the more aware and expressive of them you are. 

[infj-tarot-reader]

MBTI Intuitive Feelers Tarot

The top card represents how you see yourself, NFs!  -  the ten of cups is all about abundance and happiness. Cups are an emotional suit, so it makes sense you’d get three cups cards in this. However, contrasting types such as sensors and thinkers may see you differently...

The bottom left card - the page of cups - shows how the sensors (SJ and SP types) see you. The page of cups represents childlike wonder and sociability. Sensors appreciate your idealism - and your ability to never let go of your dreams and feelings. 

The bottom right card shows how the thinkers (ST and NT types) see you. The king of cups is all about emotion, but when reversed, it can indicate excesses of emotion or an imbalance between emotion and logic. Remember though - this is only how the thinkers perceive you - and your emotional side may be good for them, sometimes ;-)

MBTI Relationship Tarot Request: INFP x INFJ

This one is for @letham​ INFP (left) x INFJ (right) relationship thoughts/prospects - applies to every gender and sexuality and can also apply to platonic relationships too ~

INFPs are natural idea generators, and the eight of pentacles shows the skilled work which goes into any creative project. This is contrasted with the reversed page of wands, which shows a plan not exactly turning out as expected. This latter card, representing INFJ, can sometimes be a frustration within creative ideas. 

In combination, these can indicate lots of things about an INFP INFJ partnership. It shows the steady creative output of the INFP, but it could also indicate the bursts of new ideas from the INFP’s Ne disrupting the goal orientated Ni of the INFJ. This isn’t always a bad thing - sometimes spontaneity is needed to shake up the singular vision of Ni-Ti. It could also indicate indecision on the part of the INFJ, and that INFP’s Ne ideas could oave the way forward to new creative prospects...

Open to further requests!

INFJ Conscious - Unconscious Spread

A Tarot Especially for INFJs! Crossposted from IG @infj_tarot_reader

The middle card represents your type, the left hand one your conscious mind, the right hand one your unconscious mind. 

INFJs are known for giving a lot of themselves, represented by the six of pentacles. However, justice reversed shows the situation might not be balanced. INFJs, remember your strength lies in your unconscious mind, your innermost thoughts and feelings (three of wands in the unconscious) - not just in how much you give to other people...

INFJ x ENFP Relationship Tarot

With the strong king of swords representing INFJs, this spread indicates the way INFJ can support ENFP through tough times. 

Ten of swords is a card of dread, representing dark thoughts, the things which keep you up at night, or the sword hanging over your head. For ENFP though, help is at hand in the form of INFJ, whose introverted intuition cuts through the cloud of Ne-generated possibilities like a sword. 

As complementary types, INFJ and ENFP help moderate each other, and this spread shows that any ENFPs going through difficulties might do well to seek out an INFJ.

INTJ Function Stack Tarot - Requests

An INTJ function stack tarot for @intj-itachi​

Left hand column - conscious functions

Right hand column - shadow functions 

With the fool in the position of the inferior function, Se (extraverted sensing) multiple things could be indicated for this INTJ. The fool represents fun and spontaneity, new beginnings, and embarking on a new adventure. However, it can indicate a need to rein in impulsivity. 

With two of swords in the position of Ni (introverted intuition) this can indicate blinded intuition which is being disregarded in favour of Se. The secrecy of the moon in Te (extraverted thinking) and the strong, satisfied king of pentacles in Ne (first position of the shadow functions) shows confidence but guardedness in the material world. Ultimately, this is a spread with multiple interpretations, but strength lies within the shadow functions to moderate the call of Se.
