WHAT IS PERSONALITY?
Personality can be quite a slippery topic. Yet regardless of how it is formed, it is clear that it exists. Each of us are inherently unique individuals.
This site is designed to simply offer perspectives on personality traits that can be used to understand yourself better and relate to others with more awareness.
CONTEXTS
There are so many ways Personality can show up, that our very uniqueness becomes much more amorphous and versatile in reality than any trait or system of traits could possibly convey.
This is because no trait is ever isolated, they all mix.
As such, to help "flesh out" these Various Traits, this site divides personality across Various Contexts. These can all be accessed from the task bar up top.
OUR BASIC PERSONALITY
Each individual habitually takes in the world differently- this is called one's CENTER.
How we then react/respond to that input and express it is our PART OF CENTER. We each can do this through Instinct, Beauty, Movement, Emotion, Intellect, Love or Truth.

Our ATTITUDE is how we perceive all the patterns in the world, showing us what things mean. It is our philosophical outlook and default perspective of life, through Stoicism, Spiritualism, Skepticism, Idealism, Cynicism, Realism or Pragmatism.
Our GOAL is what we are challenged by and find difficult to do, yet seek on some level to extract or derive from our experiences. This could be Re-Evaluation, Growth, Discrimination, Acceptance, Submission, Dominance or Flow.
Our MODE is how we relate to every being, experience and thing on a deeper level.
This is how we form intimacy and go about fulfilling our Goal(s)- through Reserve, Passion, Caution, Power, Perseverance, Orchestration or Observation.
OUR PHYSICAL BODY
Every person has a mix of biological electro-chemical energies we call BODY TYPES- that describe how we appear, how our brain functions on default, and what our state of health is most immediately affected by. Our human body can be Lunar, Venusian, Mercurial, Saturnian, Martial, Jovial or Solar.
OUR SHADOW SELF
Our EGO FEARS develop to protect us from natural experiences such as Inadequacy, Vulnerability, Abundance, Scarcity, Losing Control of Space, Losing Control of Time and Change. They entrench us in constant reaction, defense and fear.
OUR ESSENCE DYNAMICS
Our PASSAGES are how we EVOLVE our life from Birth through Autonomy, Independence, Manifestation, Recreation, Comprehension and Death.
Our AWARENESS is how we EVOLVE our focus from Survival through Order, Individuality, Relationship and Context/Holism.

And finally, our CORE ENERGIES are our Modus and Core.
MODUS is how we function by default on a daily basis- it is how we are. While our CORE is how we shine in our prime and describes when we feel the most "on"- it is who we are.
These are represented by various universal archetypes, known to all of us as the Server, Guide, Innovator, Narrator, Warrior, Monarch and Scholar.
