Some trust in astrological horoscopes. Some listen to fortune tellers.
Some may see some relevance in social scientists and psychologists...and that's me. I love Personality. What makes us "who we are". I still think that it is not truly "accurate" because we are entering the data that determines what type of personality we have.

Personality Type Explained According to Carl G. Jung's theory of psychological types [Jung, 1971], people can be characterized by their preference of general attitude:
Extraverted (E) vs. Introverted (I), their preference of one of the two functions of perception:
Sensing (S) vs. Intuition (N), and their preference of one of the two functions of judging:
Thinking (T) vs. Feeling (F) The three areas of preferences introduced by Jung are dichotomies (i.e. bipolar dimensions where each pole represents a different preference). Jung also proposed that in a person one of the four functions above is dominant – either a function of perception or a function of judging. Isabel Briggs Myers, a researcher and practitioner of Jung’s theory, proposed to see the judging-perceiving relationship as a fourth dichotomy influencing personality type [Briggs Myers, 1980]:
Judging (J) vs. Perceiving (P)
The first criterion, Extraversion – Introversion, signifies the source and direction of a person’s energy expression. An extravert’s source and direction of energy expression is mainly in the external world, while an introvert has a source of energy mainly in their own internal world.
The second criterion, Sensing – Intuition, represents the method by which someone perceives information. Sensing means that a person mainly believes information he or she receives directly from the external world. Intuition means that a person believes mainly information he or she receives from the internal or imaginative world.
The third criterion, Thinking – Feeling, represents how a person processes information. Thinking means that a person makes a decision mainly through logic. Feeling means that, as a rule, he or she makes a decision based on emotion, i.e. based on what they feel they should do.
The fourth criterion, Judging – Perceiving, reflects how a person implements the information he or she has processed. Judging means that a person organizes all of his life events and, as a rule, sticks to his plans. Perceiving means that he or she is inclined to improvise and explore alternative options.
All possible permutations of preferences in the 4 dichotomies above yield 16 different combinations, or personality types, representing which of the two poles in each of the four dichotomies dominates in a person, thus defining 16 different personality types. Each personality type can be assigned a 4 letter acronym of the corresponding combination of preferences:

Intuition - represents the method by which someone perceives information. Intuition means that a person believes mainly information he or she receives from the internal or imaginative world.
Thinking - represents how a person processes information. Thinking means that a person makes a decision mainly through logic.
Perceiving - reflects how a person implements the information he or she has processed. Perceiving means that he or she is inclined to improvise and explore alternative options.
@Vivaci I find it more pleasant to consult, speak and converse with Intuitives who are Thinkers; than Sensors who "take" their information right from the outer world--- Intuitive Thinkers; take it, process it and logically determine what the data means without accepting other's opinions or feelings about it. Fact is not about feeling.
I have many friends who are "Judgers"...good people who may tend to rely too much upon what they think they know and "how things should be", in the extreme, we have abusers, etc. For the most part, ENTJs are GOOD people...thanks.
@MsAlaineEYes you're the same as me! do you know that entp is one of the rarest personality in the entire world and accounts for 1.4% of men and 2.0% of women?

@DeluxedEdition so I’m your introverted counterpart; it makes so much sense 💀
@MsAlaineEYes Agreed. But I think we need all kinds of people at various stages of our life/a project. Not just the thinkers, but the doers. Not just the ones who care, but those who are more analytical and strive for achieving something better. The hardworkers. At the end of the day, it’s also their intent that is more important than anything else. I tend to sympathize with those who are kind but too shy to express themselves and are often bullied, suppressed or misunderstood.
So true...ENTJs are called the campaigners for probably this reason.. 🤪😄
@SW-User that's so fucking weird do you know youre the same thing as my sister and her and i are like yin and yang. we are so different but i adore her immensely and she's the only person in this entire world who truly gets me. which is big for an entp because we feel indefinitely misunderstood LOL
awwww that's why we like each other so much 🤗❤️

@DeluxedEdition omg my brother is an entp too and we’re the same way, this is some matrix level shiit; and ikrrr we’re on the same vibe 💅💖💎
@SW-User wtf this is weird what is happening right now😳
and my sister and i were so shocked because we the two personalities whom compliment each other the best just so happened to end up being together.
the irony. it is some matrix shit 😳

@DeluxedEdition yep if you can track your childhood memories/ask your parents you’ll find out how you manifested/prayed for such a sibling, there was this cartoon about siblings named Max and Ruby I was so into and it became my reality; this is why ppl shouldn’t play around w what they pray/wish for 💯
@SW-User this is so crazy i'm getting goose bumps my sister and i watched it together. we loved it. it was such a strange show too. i remember so vividly.
i'm going to ask my mom if i ever wanted a sibling..... i'm curious now.
@DeluxedEdition Yes, I think I "knew" that with my intuitive thinking before I realized that I was an ENTP DeluxedEdition and MsAlaineEyes seem to be fitting for both of us...🌻
