    Default Dipping My Feet

    Hello.

    Nice to meet you. I'm Valkyrie.

    I am a writer, artist, web designer and (aspiring) physiognomist. I don't adhere to Isabel's model but I consider myself Ti(Ne) from Jung's literature. I am here to investigate and seek to understand the socionics perspective on both psychology and visual identification. Though I admit I'm a bit wary. I hear there's some sort of scary induction ritual..

    I like vanilla ice cream and Blaise Pascal. <3

    Why did I thought about Susanne Gekoloid after opening this thread?

    This and your introduction thread wasn't unimaginative like "Hi", "Hello" or like that.

    Feel free to answer any of these questions. They're not primarily for typing but everything you'll say will be used against you. It's primarily curiosity.

    Have you lurked much?

    How do you feel about about VI (visual identification) and it's accuracy? Why the interest?

    How did you come up with the profile name and the thread name? Please try to convey me some train of thought or thing you got inspired by.

    Do you like Bukowski? What other artists and authors you like?

    What do you write?

    Thanks. I like your avatar as well. Marcel Mariën it seems. This is the first time I come across his work. Quite erotic.
    I have studied Jung a bit. I own a copy of Psychological Types, though I admit I haven't read it all from head to tail just yet. ^-^;

    Probably not enough. Maybe a week or so. Mostly viewing Maritsa's posts, and such.
    I'm undecided on what I think of them though. But somehow I don't think she's as crazy as others make her out to be.

    How did you come up with the profile name and the thread name? Please try to convey me some train of thought or thing you got inspired by.
    Valkyrie is a name I once gave to ...a compartmentalization of myself. I went through a phase/experiment of separating my psyche into distinct persona to try to understand my mind. They began to feel real and their relationship dynamics rather complicated. Among those created, Valkyrie was a voice of creativity, risk and free spirit.

    The thread name is quite basic.
    Shortened version of "Dipping my feet in the water" or "testing the waters". Nothing too profound there.

    Do you like Bukowski? What other artists and authors you like?
    There are few artists or authors whose work I don't appreciate in some form, but one that really made my heart yearn when I first found him was Zdzislaw Beksinski. But I admit I am not the best historian, or know too many artist names. I specialize, and so I know few people's work but in great depth.

    What do you write?
    I am hoping to finish a novel I'm working on. It takes place in the year 1,048 of the biblical 6,000 year calendar. The story is very spiritual but quite irreligious, taking instead a more pessimistic perspective on Jehovah and presenting the heavenly controversy through the eyes of a human girl: Everleigh.

    But I've completely stopped writing it atm, to continue writing about and researching people-reading.

    Yeah... tbh it doesn't get interesting till Chp. 10. Most of the time, I'm totally unfamiliar with the literature he references, and it seems only vaguely relevant to his typology.
    The end is nigh

    Dip your feet in vanilla ice cream and let me lick it out for you.

    Hello and welcome.

    Don't take what we say here very seriously.

    Enjoy your stay.

    Now I am interested. Please, do share about this, if appropriate.

    This might be type related.

    Interesting. I might read between the lines that you are spiritual but avoid the frames that the religion is by definition. Did I misread?

    I suggest don't reply to Parkster. It only excites him.

    I like how many members here write their type out functionally too. <3
    I'm not alone. ^_^

    Now I am interested. Please, do share about this, if appropriate.
    I've kept journals since I was in middle school and I would give names to different thought processes I felt/identified in me and write about them. They were silly names. But when I eventually came across Jung's work those processes I had noticed all along matched strikingly well with that model. I realized I had been describing my cognitive processes as personifications. Heh, so I kept it going, with this new understanding. Valkyrie was first called Mage and was a magician girl that looked something like this: http://elsevilla.deviantart.com/art/...stock-96010674 Err... my psyche contains male as well as female personas. But that's all you're getting out of me! (;

    Interesting. I might read between the lines that you are spiritual but avoid the frames that the religion is by definition. Did I misread?
    Yep. Well, y'see, I was once a very adamant christian and spent a lot of time reading scripture. I enjoyed reading Genesis with a Hebrew concordance word for word so I understood it well. And though I'm presently agnostic/atheist I like biblical tales and find the struggles depicted in it archetypal of many human conflicts. I would say I'm not the most spiritual person, but I do think that a modern spirituality can be created even without religion - and such a thing would be beneficial.

    Heh, I bet I sound like an NiFe so far. =P
    I'll keep an eye out for Parkster.

    Hello, welcome to the16types, there are no induction rituals, unless you count posting dinner pictures and sharing your deepest secrets with strangers.

    There's a one Galen on here - watch out for him as well. Non sequitur, I mean, comprende?

    @Parkster - You deleted your post but I just wanted to say I'll definitely draw my own conclusions. :3
    I just thought that maybe Aquagraph and you were buddies sharing an inside joke of some sort. 0:

    @hkkmr - Nu-uuuh, last time I shared secrets with strangers they lit torches and chased me out of the palace with pitch forks!
    Or maybe that was a dream... I confused the two. >>

    @Absurd - o.o


    Thanks for all the welcomes. I'll go explore the site more now. ^^

    @Valkyrie: I felt like what I said might be superfluous or taken the wrong way, but I'm glad that was not the case. S'all good.
