    That would mean the time of the year in which you're born has influence on your personality. That'd be... interesting.

    I have always thought that western zodiac and MBTI must line up somehow. My theory is a somewhat awkward one to type, but it is logical and I shall type it nonetheless. I always thought that people with different personalities were more likely to... erm, 'do it'... at a certain time of year. Therefore, mother's personality + father's personality = child's personality, and this outcome of a personality mix is likely to happen in a particular month. Like, I dunno, maybe ESTJs (random example) are more likely to go at it in january. Therefore, ENTJ kids may tend to be Libras.

    Anyway. Awkward theory, but it is my theory. xD What you all reckon? hahha

    I'm an INFJ, though I had little or no marginal percentage of Judging/perceiving, so I could also be considered an INFP, Which I believe the first is The Protector, and the second is Idealist. Both describe me pretty darn well actually.

    Is it possible to be a bit of both? o.o Or even to have no preference of either?

    Well that's some creative thinking on your side. :p But I dunno, it still feels a bit far-fetched to me.
    Perhaps certain types of people would want (and be able) to mate on a certain times of the year. But throughout the ages, would it have happened often enough to cause this whole Zodiac thing you're talking about?
    Being INFP hippie me I'm more prone to assume there'd be some spiritual connection between personality and birthday, but yeah that's just me.

    Hello and welcome back on everyponi, Sinder. ^^
    Pretty cool, that might explain why I felt compelled to talk to you at first.


    Picture time.

    Ooh! I love these threads! Usually when I take these tests I end up with ISFP. I would say more, but a picture speaks a thousand words:

    After redoing the test to see if I changed. I haven't, I am still an INTJ. not that i am complaining though. I should point out that Stephen Hawking, Nikola Tesla, Isaac Asimov, Isaac newton and Karl Marx were INTJ's

    Introverts, introverts everywhere. :p

    Just wondering, do you people just take the test, or have you actually explored the significance of the different cognitive functions, and how they apply to you?

    A little of both. I was given the test once in fourth grade without knowing what it really meant, but in college I took a psychology course where we retook the test and it was explained in more detail.

    Personally I'm not happy with being an ISTJ, 'cause I feel (lol, see what I did there) like it implies I'm more logical than emotional. Really I'm one of the least logical people I know, I'm just bad at communicating feelings. I'm not all that obsessive about organization either; it bugs me when I notice things are out of order, but most of the time I'm too distracted to care; and I often don't remember the reasoning behind my own decisions. It's like I'm a new person every five minutes! :D

    If I could reclassify myself I'd think I'm an INFP.

    And lol, yeah pretty much everyone I know online is an introvert. The extraverts are probably out getting drunk or whatever it is they do.

    ENFP here. I google image search ENFB and all of the motivational posters I find are either gutter-minded or people telling ENFPs to stop singing.
    Sounds about right.

    I don't know psychology at all so I just took a test. Wee!

    I just looked at the chart, and I'm Pinkie Pie o____o
    I need to evaluate my life if that's true. Then again, I did joust with a chair worn on my hips just the other night.

    I found it really difficult to choose between the points on the test.
    I think i am ESTJ, but i know i am INTP.
    Problaby a mix between those two.

    Yep, sounds ENFPinkie to me.

    Pony MBTI chart

    According to this I am Luna. Not gonna lie I did kinda feel for her in that one halloween episode. Which doesn't happen often with this show.

    EDIT: Nevermind, I'm supposed to be ISTJ, Big Mac. My self-evaluation would have been INFP Luna... which I still think is more accurate. Obviously the test I took was just broken.

    By the descriptions in the chart, INFP Luna is closest to me! *Is completely okay with this*
