Personality Types

The "good" and "bad" of an Ameliorate, Positive, Investive - SEVEN

 MAJORS

MINORS

MINORS

Each Major Icon card is equal to two Minor Suit cards.

Coins and Staves show us the
Yang : Tangible : Transient : Crystalline : Particle Nature of Things.
Cups and Swords reveal the
Yin : Intangible : Perpetual : Amorphic : Wave Nature of Things.
Coins and Cups show us the
Yang : Positive : Ameliorate : Investive path of these two sides.
Staves and Swords show us the
Yin : Negative : Deteriorate : Divestive path of these two sides.
Both Ameliorate and Deteriorate paths have
Moderate ("good") and Extreme ("bad") possibilities to consider.

It's a matrix SYSTEM! It has many layers, many levels.

This page describes the Moderate and Extreme of an ameliorate Seven (7). I leave it to you to extract the yin from the yang from each Moderate and Extreme! Then, extract the yin and yang from each Moderate and Extreme of a Deteriorate Seven (7)!

Character:

The Idolator:
- Fatuous ~ Proselyte ~ Worshiping - These people will worship anything that moves, if it smacks of supernatural, cosmic forces from beyond.

Minor: --------------------
- Credible Realization ~ Pure Synthesis - These people believe their dreams are real.

Approach:
They take a ruthless approach to things. They run roughshod over everyone in a mad dash to realize their illusory dreams.

Philosophy:
They believe life is about religion. They are "connected" to the light of being, and it is blinding their senses. They have been scorched by the light of spirituality and have become sanctimonious. Proselytizing everyone they meet, like a holier than thou T.V. Evangelist.

Character:
They are sometimes a bit sleazy in their effort to see their hasty unplanned actions realized.

Capacity:
They are not good with reality. On their reality side, they are often a bit too literal, or reality-bound and only believe what they can see. Their fantasy side however is phantasmal. They see the world through rose colored glasses. They need a lot of pampering, because their sensitive reality is as fragile as a glass figurine.

Reaction:
If you approach them in a bad way, they will whine and complain, just like the princess and the pea.

Esteem:
No matter what happens, they always feel "born again."
