Fe Ego
You view humanity as a family in which we all have an intrinsic connection to one another – as well as a shared narrative of joy/pain and a moral obligation to our fellow man. You believe in the ability of everyone to make a difference in the world, and wish to be a force towards that difference. You admire courage, valor and perseverance in the face of hardship. You believe strongly in a person’s ability to “become” what they want to be by pursuing their aspirations. And while you may know you’ve got your share of flaws – you strive as much possible toward a greater Good, whether that be spiritually or personally defined.
You admire bravery, leadership and often find yourself landing in that position as people notice your infectious charisma. You’re able to measure, in a dynamic and real-time way, what would happen to the energies of people if certain things were said – and you can calibrate your presentation to deliver the desired effect on others. Because of this, you can open people up in ways nobody else can as you say just the right things to unfurl their guardedness; helping them become receptive towards growth. You have a transformative energy, and feel it the greatest privilege when you can guide others into transformation.
However, at times people may see you as overpowering or bossy when your desire to impact others positively is not met with equal receptiveness. In some situations, your directiveness can be condescending and critical; leading to unwanted impositions on other’s feelings. Finding the balance between being nurturing and not overwhelming is an ongoing learning exercise for you.
Fe Conscious
You’re able to measure, in a dynamic and real-time way, what would happen to the energies of people if certain things were said – and you can calibrate your presentation to deliver the desired effect on others. Using your accumulated understanding of human nature, you become a sort of diagnostic entity for the pulse of an interaction, and can steer it into more positive outcomes based on how you know people respond to certain energetic influences; applying or removing pressure/tension/direction here and there.
This can lead you to be charming, likeable and suave – or to present whatever aura you want to project. However, at times you may find yourself overdoing it, as the energetic demands of the moment imply or require a certain character from you that is misaligned to your temperament. You may be prone to yield to this pressure and play the role of for the sake of overall harmony, obscuring your true personality in the process.
When not overpowered by these pressures, however, you use your ability to bridge the gap between people and find a way to highlight the commonalities we share. Your overall aim is to achieve harmony and mutual understanding, and you can be a highly needed source of diplomacy when reconciliation seems impossible.
Fe Subconscious
You have limited emotional energy; often possessing far less social stamina than those around you. More than a couple hours interacting in the same space with others can leave you physically drained. Not knowing how to navigate yourself in the social realm, you resort to playing a chameleon role and emulating what you know to be conventional and appropriate as best as you can. However, it will often come across as fake/overdone or lackluster to others. You feel both a nagging awareness of all expectations, but an inability to manifest the necessary force or energy.
Because of this emotional strain, you become very selective in who you choose to interact with – often choosing people closer to your temperament. You prefer the company of those who can stimulate you intellectually the most, and will avoid any logistical situations that demand group participation. You are prone to disappear from the social radar, as maintaining connections is not your strong suit.
Fe Unconscious
You have an active resistance to participation in social etiquette, or the yielding of your internal composure in any form to what you sense the environment wishes to hear. You like to speak dispassionately – if a little mildly – the truth as you see it, however insensitive it may feel to others.
You may distrust speakers who choose to aggrandize their views with zeal and charisma, seeing it as an artificial inflation of an otherwise far weaker rational position. You prefer to discover the truth through careful investigation and are rather immune to persuasion by any other means.
You may have a reputation as a mute, and some may see you as the invisible student at the back of the class. Your demeanor can appear lifeless and your mannerisms/posture will be somewhat awkward and intermittent.
