Stackings that are not part of the same flow direct that energy opposite to each other, which wears them out. It is as if they give each other jolts. Their interaction to me looks similar to pulling some fabric in opposite directions - it builds up a static charge and at some point gives both an unpleasant shock. A few observations I've made led me to suspect this and later encountered posts by dfgray and a few other people on other forums describing the same thing so guess I am not the only one seeing this.

    Basically, the instincts can be arranged into two flows or currents. First current is so->sx->sp->so, while the second one runs so->sp>sx->so, in the opposite direction from the first one. The first current carries three stacking with it: sp/so sx/sp so/sx. The second current carries the other three: sp/sx sx/so so/sp. Thus the two flows are:

    1st current: sp/so-->so/sx-->sx/sp-->sp/so

    2nd current: sp/sx-->sx/so-->so/sp-->sp/sx

    People with stackings that are part of the same flow will have more synchronous interaction since they are aiming their instinctual energies in the same direction. I've added a short excerpt about it at the bottom of this article link along with dfgray's samsara interpretation of the stacks.
    I'm sp/sx, this theory doesn't reflect my experiences at all. The two others in my flow (sx/so and so/sp) are least compatible to me.

    I think that it comes down to a mutual Sx position. I reckon it's ideal when people match one another in "intensity." Wouldn't it be ideal to share the same Sx postion but with the other two variants swapped round? like this:

    so/sp with sp/ so.
    sx/sp with sx/so.
    so/sx with sp/sx.


    This is a brief summary of my experiences with other instintual variants.. from best to worst so far.

    so/ sx... They have a positive effect on me, it's like their social instinct rubs off on me a little. They fascinate me and it's usually a mutual thing. They bring me out of my shell and I bring them inside of the shell aswell lol great chemistry and mutal fascination, especially with ESTp-Ti. Their apparent superficiality is a little scary at first but they have a lot going on behind that... just like I do behind my withdrawing tendency.

    sx/ sp.. I don't find their intensity draining like sx/so but I feel like I can't match it & therfore I can't fully please them. I feel like I let them down in their expectations of me. We want different things but we understand eachother very well. Great for friendship or short relationships (strong attraction).

    sp/ sx.. not much experience with identically stacked people, I have the feeling they'd be good for a conversation but thats if we could actually get close to eachother lol

    sx/ so.. get too intimate too fast, drain me, fun in small doses with someone else present. I know one sx/ so who's "a close talker" and invades my personal space which makes me feel very uncomfortable. It seems they can be rude/ gossipy about disliked people to others which makes me tread carefully around them.

    so/ sp.. I have difficulty understanding these peoples motives. It's like they're so excited but about stuff I find boring. little to no chemistry.

    sp/ so..Based off little.. We haven't gone beyond aquaintances.
