That's a quick test to see what's what! I'm an ESFP, the Performer.

90% Extravert - 40% Sensing - 75% Feeling - 80% Perceiving.

"ESFPs live in the world of people possibilties. They love people and new experiences. They are lively and fun, and enjoy being the center of attention. They live in the here-and-now, and relish excitement and drama in their lives." - Portrait of an ESFP.

Oh yes! That sounds kinda like the Leo Mars descriptions I find.

"The ESFP is a great team player. He or she is not likely to create any problems or fuss, and is likely to create the most fun environment possible for getting the task done. ESFPs will do best in careers in which they are able to use their excellent people skills, along with their abilities to meld ideas into structured formats." - Portrait of an ESFP.

iNtuition is the perceiving function that sees things whole, or in the broad context. It grasps the big picture and also sees the implications. When it looks at something, it imagines where it came from and how it arrived at this place. It also speculates about the future, asking, where is this going? And perhaps, what is most important, intuition asks, what are the possibilities of what I am seeing?

Feeling operates with spontaneity, responding directly to a situation before analyzing its many aspects to determine its worth or usefulness. Feeling says, I like that, or, that will never do. People with strong feeling functions base their responses to a situation on their sense of what is right or wrong, appropriate or inappropriate, urgent or not urgent, or any other criteria by which something may be judged.

---

Thinking and Feeling are pretty obvious. They are the two different responses.

Judging works with structure and real goals, creating plans and organizing their world to achieve their goals and desired results in a predictable way.
They get their sense of control by taking charge of their environment and making choices early.
They are self-disciplined and decisive, and seek closure in decisions.

But, I've taken this many times, over many years and I always end up with INTJ "The Mastermind." However I consider myself a balance between INTP and INTJ, I'm judging and perceptive.

I'm a Libra Sun, Aquarius Rising.

"Masterminds tend to be much more definite and self-confident than other Rationals, having usually developed a very strong will. Decisions come easily to them; in fact, they can hardly rest until they have things settled and decided. But before they decide anything, they must do the research. Masterminds are highly theoretical, but they insist on looking at all available data before they embrace an idea, and they are suspicious of any statement that is based on shoddy research, or that is not checked against reality."

I have taken it a few times over the years thinking that I have changed but I am always an INFP...

I like it though, it is "rare"...

But then, which feeling and which thought is more reoccurring? It is true that there are different feelings and different thoughts, but there should also be trends, right? And thus, you got the INTJ(P)! Because, over all the rest, you are that one (or two) more often then the rest. C:

I think that is interesting as well. I used to wonder about that and assume I'd get Extroverted but I never did. I've consistently been INTJ and occasionally INTP. Interesting and my whole chart is masculine signs. It contrasts the logic of astrology which is fascinating and it's still accurate.

Redscorp it's funny every time I take one of these specific tests I answer honestly but I'm thinking 'I wonder what I'm going to get this time' pessimistically and alas I get the same answer again . I give up I'm an INTJ!

I agree that the test is "rare" Downtomars. It's pretty accurate if it's consistent.

How much do you consider water introspective and fire extroverted because of astrology or because of your personal opinion? I wonder if astrology is a two edged sword that makes us aware of ourselves but close minded to other systems.

I ask this because it seems as though this Myers-Briggs personality test is using a different method of measuring personalities then what's applied typically in astrology. I think focusing on the effects of astrology on people almost makes us close minded to other systems and platforms for identifying traits and patterns. I don't even think I can cross-reference the two because it actually gives me a headache and I quickly realize, astrology and this type of a personality test use different concepts to arrive at conclusions for specific traits and characteristics. Maybe that's the conclusion.

Uranus in Scorpio, that helps explain it!

Honestly I didn't understand what some of the questions meant and just hit yes or no.

Hmm...well I notice if someone is introverted or extraverted, then I find they have emphasis on one element or another. I don't think astrology or personal opinion is involved, just like, trends I find or whatever.

Or, maybe that's my personal opinion; that the watery/airy people I know are introverts and the fiery/earthy people I know are extraverts.

I'm not all that great at thinking because my thoughts branch off everywhere I begin to philosophize rather than structure my thoughts and stuff.
