Carl Jung Personality Test

 

Here's a little diversion just for fun.  I scored moderately across all 4 categories.

How'd you do?

I've taken this before and sometimes get ENFJ....I go back and forth between Extrovert and introvert depending on where I'm at in life, but have always kept the NFJ at the end no matter what. http://typelogic.com/infj.html 

This website has good descriptions for each of the types.  http://www.personalitypage.com/html/high-level.html

INFP

  • You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (44%)
  • You have distinctive preference of Intuition over Sensing (62%)
  • You have distinctive preference of Feeling over Thinking (62%)
  • You have moderate preference of Perceiving over Judging (33%)

lol....my mother was always telling me to take off my rose colored glasses...

"INFPs never seem to lose their sense of wonder. One might say they see life through rose-colored glasses. It's as though they live at the edge of a looking-glass world where mundane objects come to life, where flora and fauna take on near-human qualities."

" INFPs have the ability to see good in almost anyone or anything. Even for the most unlovable the INFP is wont to have pity. "

Thank you Noa, this was quite interesting.  It even says my interests include writing and religious education-Holistic theosophy is my 'thang'.

I've never done any of these tests that were so 'right on'.  Great fun.

Funny, always knew I was a bit of an emotional introvert.  I like this though:
 
"INFJs are champions of the oppressed and downtrodden. They often are found in the wake of an emergency, rescuing those who are in acute distress. INFJs may fantasize about getting revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. The concept of 'poetic justice' is appealing to the INFJ.  Accurately suspicious about others' motives, INFJs are not easily led. These are the people that you can rarely fool any of the time. Though affable and sympathetic to most, INFJs are selective about their friends. Such a friendship is a symbiotic bond that transcends mere words."

"INFJs are deeply concerned about their relations with individuals as well as the state of humanity at large. They are, in fact, sometimes mistaken for extroverts because they appear so outgoing and are so genuinely interested in people -- a product of the Feeling function they most readily show to the world. On the contrary, INFJs are true introverts, who can only be emotionally intimate and fulfilled with a chosen few from among their long-term friends, family, or obvious 'soul mates.'"

I've only found one other "test" that rang so true and the was the Enneagram, a book called, Personality Types: Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery.  Amazing insights as well.  Although, now that I think about it, I remember a book by Dan Millman called The Life You Were Born to Live that was uncannily accurate as well.  Good stuff, thanks Noa, always liked Jung's work, Freud's not so much, not everything stems back to the base urge of sex, lol.

Onesong...yeah...this is the most accurate personality test I've ever taken!

Francis...same as me! I almost feel sorry for you if your mind is anything like mine. lol. Much as I love the way my mind works it's both a blessing and a curse.

long hard road to here but well worth it upon reflection (I can say that now - ha, ha!)

I had the same score as you,,,but I found several of the questions hard to answer, near the beginning,,,as I don't find myself in some of the situations,,,,I guess that might make me even more of an introvert these days......L.........T

I had several that i couldn't answer right off, so just went quickly through them so as not to 'think' too much, then went back and answered intuitively those i had passed over. In the end, the results were pretty astounding...even as much as to say under 'career' 'writing and religious education'.  I've always felt there's a book 'in here' somewhere-maybe someday i'll turn it loose.  And though i'm a Coptic minister, i consider myself 'spiritual' but not exactly religious but Holistic (as in we are all one) for sure.  Blessings on your way! 

(I don't get here much-are you still in hmmm, was it China?)

  Still n china, but my contract is up in June. I think that living here upped my score on the introvert level,haha! Although I have learned a lot of Chinese, I still pretty much walk alone here. Occasionally some folks drag me into a restaurant, or their home to eat,(usually the same place), but we just can't have anything more than basic, casual conversation. I have passed a lot of ideas, and information to some younger folks, and even a few middle school students who stand out. Math is so intense for them here, (they learn higher levels at younger ages) I found a good way to feed them new ideas through sacred Geometry. They didn't understand what it was, but were fascinated when I brought in a book on it that John had recommended me some time back. It was a good way to spur their interest in nature, a way they could relate to. We have chalkboards on 3 walls of the classroom, and they completely covered them in a half anhour with theories and diagrams that grabbed their interest, and this has led to some interesting conversations. Today I will show them part of the ancient Knowledge video, the section on frequencies,as they are familiar with the beautiful designs in the Tibetan books,(like in "the last mimzy" which show up in crop circles a lot, and of course are sacred geometry...

  It's funny,,,when I was young, i learned more about nature than math, as I grew up on the edge of wilderness. Here, most people grow up in these concrete jungles, and know a lot about math, but nothing about nature, or their relation to it. They are scared to death of most animals,,many are even afraid of dogs. ,,,,,,,Peace to you,,,L,,,,T
