So who else is not surprised that the INFJ female friend he talked about is now his partner. I was slowly waiting to find out where their relationship was now. Happy for you guys.
Ovcourse...not suprised. His body language and choice of words while he reffered to " this friend" told it all. I remember my comment here asking " are you sure that there is nothing here more than friendship with this infj female friend that you are not quite aware of yet?" Now here! Another book to read!
I'm just sad that I couldn't get to him (female INFJ here) in the nick of time first lol. Can't say I've ever got to connect with a male INFJ IRL but genuinely happy for their union :)
I was surprised at how fidgety you became when she entered the video. Since I'm sure you do the editing, I don't think you were worried about what she would say. I think it was more about how close this all hit. I feel like even though you are on RUclips which brings you into the public eye you are still a very private person at heart. As an INFJ myself I can relate to being able to put myself out there but I don't like people to know EVERYTHING about me. I enjoy and appreciate your videos and wish you both well!
AWWWW!!! Seeing you and your INFJ friend being together as a couple/unit makes me so happy! The chemistry between you two is undeniable-very much like magnets.
I know my whole birth chart and I still can't relate 😐 I thought I didn't relate to my zodiac sign because of the moon or rising or venus or mars or whatever Aaand I was totally wrong
You really are an amazing human being. As an INFJ, I can confidently say all of your videos have really made me think about everything really deep. What pleasantly surprised me was the friend you introduced us to in the video. The two of you are so in tune with each other, and the vibe she brings to the table is so refreshing. I have an INFJ friend who I've been close friends with for almost two years. We have had almost the same experience to what you described and I could never imagine being in a relationship with her, but this really made me question everything.
I recently started to get into Tarot and oracle decks, it really blew my mind, it's not what I thought it would be like, you really go deep into your self with these things, It's amazing how accurate the messages you get on the cards are, you really start to question everything you know.. I find it amazing ☀️🌈✨
I have also done that, being sceptical at first, but I was suprised to find the readings accurate (most of the time) and funny enough more accurate when I do a reading for a friend. I do not do it often though. It's sort of a private thing for me. I will only tell or do a reading with some-one close.
INFJ here (at least, I behave at the moment -I’m 16- mostly like the “conceptual” infj, fit in this personality box the most, but as everyone is, I’m an exception -so in the end no one is lol-). I’ve greatly developed my Ti and Fi during quarantine, worked on giving myself more credibility and legitimacy when it comes to opinions, taking my own defense, and telling people the truth as it is, in a more bland way. I used to and sometimes still use to sugarcoat the truth to avoid conflict when in fact my goal is to “see”, discover, tell the truth. You have been a great inspiration for me towards strengthening this and have unknowingly contributed to developing this part of me that I now value a lot. Anyway, I think an interesting experiment could be to ask your relatives/friends to read 5-10 different descriptions without them knowing which one is supposed to be you, then make them guess which one is you. Have a good day!
I'm VERY into Psychology and Astrology. I’ve noticed there's a HUGE correlation with both of them! I'm also a teacher, some of my fellow coworkers think it's hilarious when I look into my students birthday's to see what kind a personality they might have! I'm a July 16th Cancer Sun, Pisces moon, Libra rising ENFJ :)
Yaaassssssssss JULY 16 INFP-A and I promise you I read up on INFJ and I resonate with it also 🔥 I am Cancer Sun/Rising and Gemini Moon/Venus and a Tarot Card Reader and enjoy Psychology too!! Love your energy!
I’m in my last year of high school, super into psychology and astrology as well. Reading on my placements, I see how I was typed as an INFJ based on the cognitive functions. I’m a Pisces rising, Taurus sun and Taurus moon :) dominant house in my chart is the 3rd house which makes A LOT of sense with me. I still have a lot to learn though
Same here! But I keep astrology only for myself. At least in my country astrologers are considered crazy. ENFJ also :D with Gemini Sun, Cancer Moon and Virgo Rising and stellium in the 9th house
Im sorry to burst ur bubble but theres no scientific evidence of astrology working what so ever. They're just vage desceiptions of personality traits that everyone has. It isnt real
In the INFJ burnout video, you said something to the effect of maintaining a level 2 connection with a main person (I'm guessing you were referring to your ex wife), on a scale of 1-5, becomes very dissatisfying and probably depressing after realizing how amazing a 5 level connection is. Immediately I was hoping that you were now with this fellow INFJ, level 5 connection!! And there you two are, I'm so happy that I watched this despite being a little put off by the title, it gives me hope!!
Thank you for exploring this topic with us! It was really an unexpected surprise when you introduced your significant other to discuss the characteristics of those born on your birthday. Wishing you both lots of love and deep conversations!
I am INFJ and I am an astrologer! If you go deep into astrology and astrology at the soul level is a great healing tool. I have helped many and every chart is unique. The natal chart is a blueprint of the soul. Deeply healing and it helps people to realize how connected we are and how each soul journey is unique!
That particular book, The Secret Language of Birthdays, is based on the work of pianist and personologist Gary Goldschneider, who assessed the personality traits of over 14,000 people by birthday to generalize characteristics for each day (no doubt drawing from esoteric disciplines like astrology). I found the description for my birthday also to be scarily accurate. What the lay person usually doesn't understand about astrology and other esoteric practices is that they're nested in a much deeper philosophical and religious worldview. Just as the major religions of the world communicate the various expressions of a fundamental Truth through their individual doctrines, astrology seeks to communicate aspects of the differentiated Divine in the human being. Numerical associations in astrology and numerology have symbolic significance in relation to God or Spirit. The number 1 represents Spirit as Unmanifest, Indivisible, and Transcendent. The number 2 expresses the resultant duality when Spirit manifests itself through creation. The principle of duality trickles down from the Absolute (God as Creation and Transcendent) to every aspect of creation: positive and negative, proton and electron, male and female, day and night, up and down, in and out, life and death, etc. In Hindu philosophy this illusion of division in the Indivisible is known as Maya. The number 3 has further symbolic significance as an expression of the Divine. In religious literature we see it expressed in the forms of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost in Christianity and as Sat, Tat, and Om in Hinduism. Other numbers like 4, 5, 7, and 12 also have unique derivations and special significance and find themselves reflected in nature, culture, and religion as well. The 7 candlesticks during Hanukkah, the 7 lamps in the Book of Revelation, the 7 diatonic notes in a scale (12 chromatic), the 7 days of the week. In astrology there are 12 signs total, 3 signs in each of the 4 elements, correlating with the 4 seasons of the year. Geometrically, the birth chart is shown on a circle (1), representing the whole, undivided personality. There are geometric relationships between points, angles, and planets too, with the opposition (180 degrees) representing the principle of duality, or 2. Signs that are 180 degrees apart have opposing and complementary characteristics. Trines represent 120 degree relationships, and Squares are 90 degrees apart. Planets found to be in certain geometric relationships manifest either constructively or destructively in the personality depending on the aspect. TLDR: Without even getting into the details of astrology, it's important to know that it CANNOT be divorced from its religious and philosophical origins. Generally these esoteric truths are regarded as ancient wisdom that have made their way down to a relatively unenlightened age. While there may be particular differences in the different forms of astrology, just as there are differences in each religion's expression of Truth, the origins are the same. The Hindus have entire mathematical systems that explain the cycles of Creation, one of them being the Yuga Cycle, detailing the rise and fall of man. Such a cycle is comparable at least in substance to the Golden Ages of the Greeks, and while I'm not too familiar with Vedic astrology, I wouldn't be surprised if the Greek mythological origin stories of the signs and planets share some similarities with their Vedic counterparts. There are far greater depths to astrology than the average consumer of astrological pop culture is aware of. I'd recommend reading the introduction to The Holy Science by Swami Sri Yukteswar to understand how astrology affects the consciousness of man.
What beautiful chemistry, admiration and mutual respect you have for each other! I have wondered what an INFJ-INFJ relationship would be like...might you consider sharing about that sometime? 💕 Has anyone else out there met their INFJ match?
Thank you! I really enjoyed seeing the two of yoy interact in such a secure, wonderful way! Loved it. It's a great example for viewers -- of interaction in healthy relatuonships. 😃❤
I think astrology has gotten a poor reputation because most people don't understand how to use it. People with strong Ni are likely better equipped to accept the paradox of using a method that seems precise and scientific but in actuality is more of a qualitative way to tell stories about human personalities. A story from my life reminds me of the strength of astrological signs. I was a teenager and was waiting for the bus. There was another person waiting. As the bus was approaching we moved closer together and she spoke to me, saying "you're a libra." It was a statement, not a question. I asked, "how did you know?" and she just kind of gestured at what I was wearing, which was thrift store clothes, loose and colourful. That was our entire interaction. I still find it amazing because of the randomness and her certainty. Astrology isn't going to provide any definitive answers, but it can be a tool to better understand ourselves and each other, particularly for those of us with strong Ni, like that lady.
Lexi seems like an amazing lady and I am so glad to see that you are a couple. The horoscope matter is kind of out there, but I did enjoy both of your remarks.
Clay...I just found an interview with Carl Jung on RUclips channel Kidmillion. ..As an INFJ it is wonderful to see Jung and read some things about his personality traits. Jung is a Leo like you 7.27 birthday. Jung seems very open. Jung said about Freud that once he made up his mind that was it. Both Jung and Freud analyzed eachothers dreams.(Jung also has Autobiography book..a large red book about $100) Jung describes his personality as Intuitive etc .. Soooo interesting...blessings to the tribe.
Charming couple! I was born on the soltice cusp of Gemini ♊️ and Cancer ♋️ so I always say, "I will treat you so many ways your bound to like one of them!" I believe I am INFJ too.
The most adorable part of this video is how "bright" your energy got when she got into the video.. can't really explain but it's like a big a* smile from the inside radiated off even tho your face didn't really show it, it was real adorable to watch fam lol. Also ilike how when she immediately made comments about description about you that's absolutely not debatable and 100% true lmfao other than that she sat back and read into everything else you was saying from your words and how you was saying it (alot more than those 2 but ima keep it minimal). Both of you guys seem to have a very precise tongue so icould only imagine, how that argument would go lol....... but idk if it's just me but she seem a tad bit uncomfortable being like in the video but hey icould just be talkin. I could go on but ill stop here lol. You can be prideful and protective when it comes to your "true emotions" clay, ill leave you to find the mystery of your partner haha. - Anyway keep making videos 🙌🏿
Beautiful energy between the two of you 😍🥰🙏 And it was a funny off topic topic. But most of it was accurate for me too, and my birthday is close, but a couple of days before yours. The story you told about climbing is totally me. Like the challenge is somehow more important than the body 😬😆 Crazy? Yes 🤩
I got out of my astrology phase. It’s bad for my overthinking habits. Also bs. It was just a cycle of false reassurance on identity. Thinking for myself became an even harder concept to grasp. Being told i like to daydream because i have stuff on a chart actually takes me out of my imagination. It’s bad philosophy tiresomely shallow yet still reliant on emotions to keep an interest. At least in mbti there’s room for interpretation less prejudice and without having to pay someone money to have labels enforced on you for a quick ego boost.
Interesting! I'm, also a Lion and I was born in 24th of July, here in Portugal! The interesting part is that in the Mayan Calendar, the 26th of July is the first day of the year and the 24th, the last. The 25th day doesn't exist in the calendar, it's considered the Day Out of Time! I've been watching your videos since it looks like me talking! All my life I understood I was different and since little I wanted to save the world and help people! But what always ruined my life were the relationships. Catastrophic to me! And now I know! Thank you so much for charing! :)
Have you ever pulled up your entire natal chart? I got deep into astrology & tarot starting a few years ago and it was a lightbulb moment. I have Virgo rising, a stacked 8th house, and Pluto dominance. I typed initially as an INFP, but the videos I watched weren’t hitting the mark. It’s so interesting how it all fits together when you find the correct answers!
I am open minded re astrology, numerology,Tarot etc, the character descriptions of certain signs definitely can be pretty accurate, I highly recommend finding out what your astrological North and South nodes are - supposedly your soul's urge to move towards in this lifetime is your North Node, and your South Node where your soul is coming from and familiar with. Mine is spot on! I guess it helps if you believe in re-incarnation and I do! I did not grow up in a very Christian family so I do think that has some bearing . My mum is a Buddhist and my dad grew up Christian but is more Atheist nowadays.
I have that book. I also love Carl Jung, and the principles of Jungian analysis and transpersonal psychology. The study of man's The use of symbols, the Shadow, Archetypes, Psyche, and The Collective Unconscious, as well as Synchronicity all have a mystical quality, while appealing to those of us who need to make sense of things rationally.
Nice to see the two of you together, congrats to both of you! 💖 Astrology will become more accurate the more you read about it. If you do a birth horoscope with the exact time and place you were born, you will be stunned by the exactness of it all. If you “just” read about your birthday, you will only know your “sun aspect”. Then there is all of the other aspects to consider. (my english is not good enough to explain....) But this is true, the more you read about it, in detail, the more exact it is... Scary? Well, yes, and it is hard to explain, but being an INFJ you are definitely curious enough to know more.....
My brothers birthday is on July 26th, he’s an enfj (almost 25) I always feel he is a balanced person in his energy (masculine feminine) , intuitive in his dreams, and good business person. My nephew almost two has this same birthday 🥳 🩵 I am infj I feel I relate to my bro in an introverted , female version I’m an Aries born on April 8th.
Maybe it's just me, but I found it really interesting that like you, I'm an INFJ, my mom is also an INFP, she's also EXTREMELY into astrology (I can't tell you how many times over my life I heard her say she had to check "my chart") and my birthday is July 7. Not the same day as yours, but we're both cancers. That was too many similarities for it to not pique my interest lol
I looove this book! As soon as i meet someone i go look them up on their website and check our compatibility. For a little cookie I'll tell you the website 🤫
I've studied astrology since 1969. I find it corresponds pretty accurately to both psychology, and graphology (handwriting analysis). And, in fact, in astrology, I can easily see my "INFJ-ness." There are so many different types of astrology: financial astrology, medical astrology and many other paths. So, in many cases, it is the concept people have of it that is usually the limiting factor. "What's your sun sign?" As other have said, the moon sign is important (your instinctive emotional responses). And Venus ("HOW do I love?") And keep in mind, most (if not all) of the Tibetan Dalais, at any "...An evening with The Dalai..." events, will encourage people to study astrology, in order to see the patterns of life. It's not just for looking at yourself. You can read Ecclesiastes 3 and you will understand what astrology proposes ("To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven...") I'm watching the video simply because, as an INFJ, I like the videos. When I saw this one, I went, "Hmmmm....lets see what they believe." She's using the "date" astrology. There are also degrees that are powerful such as "O" degrees or the 29th degree, called "The Degree of Expiation/Atonement". Jane Fonda has many planets in her chart on the 29th degree! It is not a life of ease, to say the least!) Nice video, although one could hardly comprehend "purpose" in a short video. Even at 70, there is so much to learn about astrology.
As a fellow INFJ, I so appreciate your transparency and vulnerability in being brutally honest about yourself and sharing what you have uncovered, with whoever has an ear to hear what God is saying through you. This is my goal, as well, one that is currently "on the shelf" as I am struggling through a season of deep soul searching, seeking God's path, along with greater wisdom to more fully understand my "assignment(s)" for now and how to best implement them so they are the most effective/influential in people's lives during a time of great unrest and people are so divided and isolated because of the covid scare... also dealing with a recent move "back home" to the upper midwest where I was raised... re-acclimating myself (and my dog) to harsh winters, getting ready to move into a home my husband and I are buying, with a closing date of Jan 15, which is when I hope to transition back into working on my recording studio, building my aromatherapy business and hosting more gatherings. I think the "pedestal" is something others try to put us on from time-to-time and in your case, doesn't have anything to do with pride or arrogance on your part. I think a more accurate interpretation of this part of the reading would be that "pedestal" is more of a place of separation, or isolation, caused by others' elevated opinion of us, as a result of our ability to tune into their struggle and intuitively bring them comfort and healing. This happens to me when I host gatherings where I share music and other things God puts in my heart, and because of the anointing on my life (and who God made me as an INFJ), people are drawn into God's presence (wherever two or more gather in His name, there He is also, and He always shows up with great love and healing in His wings). He's really the One bringing the comfort and healing, I'm just a conduit, and as long as I remember that, I stay "grounded" and in right relationship, with Him and the people I'm trying to reach and/or relate to. I totally get the part about messing with the status quo and arousing antagonism (I've always hated the status quo because it keeps us back from being who we were created to be and doing what we were created to do...) and have dealt with a lot of retaliation because people don't always want to hear the truth, and can't see that what I'm saying is even helpful. I'm also learning a lot about how much to "sugar coat" truth... sometimes, no matter how nicely you say something, the other person will take offense (people get offended because of unresolved issues in their lives, not yours)... and so then it becomes a question NOT of how nicely I can say something, but IF I'm willing to say it, and pray the outcome to God, because ultimately the results are between the person and God (and no one else)... just sayin' I listened to most of this (up to about 25:32) and determined that a LOT of what you're sharing here pertains also to me (born on November 7) and probably a LOT of other INFJs (no matter what day they were born) and lots of others, also (no matter what personality they have :) - so it's somewhat helpful, keeping in mind that it applies to more than just the people born on June 26. Keep up the good work. A lot of people are empowered by what you have to share. Shalom.
Enjoyed the video, thank you for sharing Lexie with us. I would like to see her again in one of your videos. Im also a Leo, born on 8 August. I have read a lot about astrology at some stage in my life. My sun- and moon rising is in Leo, ascending in cancer. I have to admit, my results were very accurate!
Another great watch Clay, thank you. I always found myself scoffing at astrology too, but this reminded me to keep my mind open! It was cool seeing a conversation in this one rather than your normal vids. Have you ever considered making your own podcast? I, for one, would love to listen to you speak with other personalities or other personality researchers about experiences or even to bounce ideas off of each other and explore certain topics! I think that would be super cool and I would definitely listen/watch!
Wait until you fine tune it further; by the year and time of your birth. Then you have a fingerprint of your actual chart which goes more in depth with degrees and house placements.
I've read this book! And it makes sooo much sense. I've always believed there is a correlation between your birthday and MBTI. I've found those who are more extroverted tend to be born more between the 10th-19th of the month, with the more intuitive ones born around the cusps. Food for thought :)
Something else i find interesting from these guys is how they start off listing a summary of traits. Positive to one side and negative to the other. For example yours is 'Dynamic, influencial & attractive'. And on the more negative 'Provocative, Blunt & Difficult'.. Most 'normal' people tend to express a mix or lighter versions of the negative whereas whenever i meet what i would call a toxic person they fully express all the negatives of their birthdays. Definitely one of my most interesting finds as per personality typing.
Ooh, cool book haha. Leo INFJ over here too, can't say I fit the description of a leo very well but I definitely seem to be becoming more of one every day. I wonder what the book says about august 18th 😂 Update: I walked into a bookstore, looking for some books about medicine, and behind me, I suddenly saw the translated version of this book. Ha! I got to see my birthday, and I have to say it had some very true things to say about me.
I relaaate Mr Clay! I am at 8.14 right now. You two are beautiful by the way. 12.40 now. My GOD, this is so "me" as well. It is like she is talking to me, through Clay haha!! Bless you Clay :D
I guessed 2 women's zodiac twice. This is a true story. The second woman had 2 rare idiosyncrasies someone else I knew had and when I guessed her sign, we both got pretty scared. The first girl that I guessed her sign was apparently from me attempting to make a demon pact and I predicted meeting her. Because of things even worse than sleep paralysis, I am currently entertaining Catholicism/Eastern Orthodoxy. I now make an effort to avert my attention away from anything "occultic" At least, it's not for me.
My mom is INFP too. I've kind of formed a theory that the types of a parent can influence a child, and I think an INFP mom can lend to forming an INFJ function stack in a child. My mom also raised me Christian, and I grew up analyzing and questioning things more then she tends to. You should further investigate how this astrology thing is done and make a video on it too, because I've been meaning to look into this myself.
Yesss highly agree I feel like we inherit “letters “ from our parents like Punnets Square.. my father is an intj mother esfp my mother’s mother enfp her father istj..they’ve always told me that I have my grandfather’s glare also my grandma was multitalented and I’m a mix of all of these an “infj”..
This was interesting. I love the way you two dive into the dephts of something your initially sceptical of, and then build upon that. Also, lovely to see how Lexi understands the train of thought and gives you a brief moment to contemplate before commenting. 🥰 Also, the truth. I totally relate to that. Blunt, non-coated truth is what I appreciate to get, and that is also what I give in return. It gets troublesome with certain people but I hate trying to read between the lines or guessing what the other person is implying.
Taking risks with dirt bikes, mountain bikes, rock climbing. Stimulation seeking Straight talking blunt, direct communication style. More than just a July 26 person. I thought I was very Pisces. Until.
I don't have a tv, so I'm just making a bowl of popcorn and watching your youtube on a FRI night :) hehe great diverse content. Thank you. You're much appreciated, and your Lady is super cute and lovely too. thanks you2!
I'd really like to learn more about Lexi. It would be cool if you did a video interviewing her. Does she ever feel misunderstood? Are people intimidated by her? Does she think that it is more difficult to handle the haters as a female? When did she realize that she has a unique personality type? How does she handle being able to feel other peoples' emotions? I have watched a lot of Wentzes' videos and things are starting to make sense. It would be great to have another female's perspective on all of this.
"I don't believe in astrology but its fun" Haha thats the exact same line I use. Its nice to hear someone else say that & I imagine it comes from the same discomfort of seeing truth in something that appears to be complete nonsense. Its crazy just how accurate detailed astrology can be. Not the generic horoscope crap that can apply to everyone, but the actual detailed version of it. How where & when you where born changes it. Which makes sense, it shouldn't be the same globally. I don't like to believe, I like to know. But the older I get the more I realize just how little I truly know. I "know" a lot about the natural world, animals & so on. But how much of that have I known myself? Very little overall, I'm just memorizing things I've read & heard. Things I've seen on programs with heavy edits. Well the same could apply to a lot. Nobody has time, & in many cases the ability to fact check for themselves everything they think they know. So ultimately it comes down to a level of faith. Which leads to the question what is worthy of being held in faith? I believe this is. Much like Myers-Briggs astrology can be used as a tool to help understand yourself & others better. Tarot & oracle cards as well. However problems arise when people put too much stock in it & believe they know everything about themselves & others based on a label or some symbolism.
I am watching your videos for some time now, I am very much similar to you as an INFJ and surprised to be honest, although most INFJ's are similar but the way you narrate your stories and how you felt kind of made me realise we have much similarities than others, now this particular video showed up in my feed and I am literally shocked to know that your birthday is also July 26th, and the readings are similar, I am always curious about astrology and I wanted to check the authenticity of astrology many times by learning how they can predict.
You should also read your birthday from a book called "The Power of Birthdays, Stars & Numbers: The Complete Personology Reference Guide". I think that book is even more specific. In my teenage years I was into Bob Marley, I felt a soultie to his music and personality, and later on I found out we shared the same birthday (40 years in between). 😄
I'm a pisces and this is what I was all about and trying to connect with society to also being so well grounded n feeling I'm connected to the universe. Then I found out about being an INFJ so this is a great concept hearing your route to mine to see where this takes my mind to
Wow.. This was a great 3am Diving Deep session..like is characteristic of my 72 yrs in this body. And as soon as she came into screen, I could see in enegy and physical expression how alike you two are. I am going to forward this to my new young friend, INFJ...
I have a similar reaction to astrology. I an cynical of something based on the moment of birth because I'm not a fatalist, but I'm also open-minded so I want to keep my options to learn open. This I read about it ... And, it's eerily accurate with a frequency that belays random data. I think "is this psychological bias?" or" is there something going on in the universe when we're born that I just don't understand?" Or" and I addicted to the mirror of self assessment?"...because of personal doubts I think this is partially true...So I keep all my knowledge channels open but cautious and don't fatalistically accept anything just from the page But thanks for doing this video I appreciate that you're checking out more than just Jungian ideas around personality
I have been having this theory for a while that I’m sure I’m not the first or only person who has ever thought this but since my inner circle is pretty small the close people to me don’t fully understand but I found your channel and I’ve watched a few of your videos and is like you are reading my brain which is a very foreign feeling for me. I’ve watched your adhd because I’ve been diagnosed with adhd and also would say I’m pretty sure I’m definitely an infj who also happened to be born in July who was raised catholic.I did started getting into astrology a few years ago almost as a form of therapy to try to solve my traumas because no one else was helping and I started connecting some points with personality types, astrology and mental disorders diagnosis and I can’t help to hear echoes between all of them which almost leads me to believe that somehow they are all connected in a way. Idk is very abstract thought but I find it fascinating … really enjoy your videos
I too, spend months researching topics that I find when I try to speak to others, most of the time they have no opinion on the matter because it is all new to them. I've also had to learn to control that and give people more small doses of things. Or listen to them speak about things I know and understand when they come to an incorrect conclusion that there is certain information they do not have yet so for them the conclusion is sound. I've learned to cage my tongue lol
There certainly is a component, even from the Christian perspective. Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years. I think we fail to recognize that there is a reason why, when, and where we are born, and sometimes it takes us a long time to understand our purpose and place. I don't believe we are completely blank pages. Maybe more like we are already given a template upon which other things are built.
Best to not look into numerology either then if you have been surprised 😁 yeah Jung was a Leo with mercury in empathetic/intuitive cancer. (It's possible that you also have mercury in cancer) Having venus in cancer also would contribute to this more, or if in gemini you could be a very good communicator. Being a mix of assertive and sensitive is the Leo-Cancer. Different professions also have repeated astrological signs and numerlogical numbers if you researched it at all. I'm thinking you could be a 7, 11 or a 9 possibly. Jung was a 9 which relates to idealism and humanism. 7 and 11 are the two numbers about truth and spiritualism. Your birthday number is a 8 (2+6), so this is one component contributing to a sense of innate authority, but this won't be your most important number
OMG I've been weirdly fixated on finding the best scissors and cutlery after a pair of tailoring scissors of mine needed to be saved after I used a sharpener (specifically designed for scissors) that had been assembled incorrectly, and just wrecked em. So I started researching ceramic knives, and then that led me to the extremely time consuming rabbit hole of cookware and finding the best nontoxic, and finely crafted pots and pans that won't look dated and tacky in a years time.......... Ughhhh! It's a problem. Where's my valium?
And it is ancient wisdom, in regards to where it comes from. There is evidence from the origin of man, ancient Babylon, Egypt, Mesopotamia, etc. But still, look into it for yourself, you'll be an astrogeek before you know it!
I'm open minded but never looked much into astrology because my basic horoscope (Capricorn sun, Virgo moon, rising) doesn't fit me well. in the last 2 years I've actually taken on delving into learning the whole system and I've actually gotten to the point where I have a more thorough comprehension of astrology than most of the people I know who are into it 😂 but I digress. I have definitely hit aspects of my chart that fit me well like Mars in the 5th house, Chiron in the 8th house, Uranus in Scorpio, etc. I've gotten caught up in moments of resonant incredulity and I've enjoyed reading into the symbolism as is my nature. at this point, I'm left almost exactly where I started. actually, I have a better understanding now of what I don't like about astrology. I'm not against it nor do I judge people for believing it but the fact is that it isn't reliably accurate. I've struggled so much with having my feelings and identity invalidated in my life so I actually don't appreciate having people project a set of false characteristics onto me because of my birthday. I think there may actually be a potential for harm in astrology this way and I didn't truly grasp that before. I guess it plays into my journey of learning to understand and validate myself and define healthy boundaries. in that regard, I don't regret exploring the whole system or have any resentment about it. it has been useful in directing a journey of introspection ☺️ I understand why people are into it but it just doesn't satisfy my standard of truth and meaning. I deeply believe we create our own meaning and that it has real significance on a wider level than we perceive. I will stick with my subjective view that explores beyond itself in a way that tries to encompass a respect for all possible subjective experience. I think validation of self has become too important to my sense of meaning to sacrifice ideas about myself to fit into an external, preconceived set of standards. my mom had that book too and I recall that my birthday was pretty accurate as well ☺️ your girlfriend is very cute 😉
This one is so funny, cause I got into astrology just like that 😂😂😂 its so scarily accurate (sorry my first language isnt english btw) but these personality traits are mostly decided on how the planet constellation was at the minute you were born. Every planet has like some sort of character. Like your zodiac leo is ruled by the sun, so there u have ur first traits somehow. But the other planets were still there at the time u were born right xD the planets all have zodiacs as well. So when u look at your actual zodiac chart u have way more zodiacs then one. Depending on the planet constellation, they tell u how u are most likely to act in certain areas in you life (for example work, family, identity, how u wanna be perceived by others etc) and when all these characteristics come together, you can build an instruction about how this person is most likely going to be. Idk how someone ever came up with all of that, but if u look into it, its really like a whole new world haha the fact, that everything seems so random and is yet so accurate, made me stumble upon it haha I still need to look way more into it. I dont even know, if my informations are right, but astrology is interesting for sure xD I never believed in that type of stuff at all, but then I told someone randomly at what time I was born and they just broke down my whole identity based on zodiacs and I was so freakin mindblowed that I still cant get over it 😅😅😅
Just found you recently, so very glad I did, your insights have really helped me understand more about myself and why I have felt the way I have my whole life. That aside, the topic of Astrology like the personality test can be a little general until you have all the information necessary. So with Astrology to get the most accurate information about yourself as it relates to the Universe you need to know your Sun & Moon sign (It's more than that but that's the gist) To do that you need all the information of your birth and the lat & Long of the location you popped out at. With the coordinates, time and date you can get the most accurate info. For instance, I am a Libra/Libra, which means I do not waiver at all from Libra traits. It is important to know your moon sign, without going into detail it's basically the starting point of how the information is derived about you as it relates to your various traits. Nutshell version! Anyways, I explain it as Astrology/Astronomy provides information a you as it relates to the Universe/Cosmos, your true being. The B&S personality information is how your true being has been affected by your surroundings, society, etc.. Hence the A&T to also provide a littler more clarity as it relates to that particular time and space in your life. My two cents. Thanks for what you do, it has helped quite a bit.
As an an empath and fellow infj ive been studying personality types/zodiac and my intuition actually subconsciously since I was a child and the correlations im finding are astonishing. Along with my feelings with religion and humanity and they changes that have happened.......ugggg its hard to text all thats going through my head 🤦♀️ and being a gemini sun, 100% moon in saggitarious, also 9 aposing planets my charch looks like a butterfly lol and then add being and add being and empath and an ifnj....some would say im a super power or a hot ass mess 🤣.
Lol infj here and I used to lead a very sceptical life, until I looked into astrology properly and checked out mine and others full chart. Very interesting
Horary astrology is crazy weird accurate most of the time. William Lilly's "Christian Astrology", written in 1647, is one of the most important books in western astrology, and specifically deals with horary forecasts. Basically, you can ask a question that is really bothering you (the more emotional impact the question has the better) and then you take the date an time you asked the question and make a birth chart for it (which you can do using astro.com's free Natal Chart with Ascendant generator. I'll link it here: www.astro.com/cgi/chart.cgi?btyp=w2gw&rs=3&usechpref=1 It's a bit more complex when interpreting the chart, so I always have to get someone with more knowledge of horary to help me interpret the answer. Oh, and if you ask a question during a Void of Course Moon, it basically means your chart won't answer the question accurately, so it's best to only do it when the moon is *not* void of course. For whatever reason.
this is how we are trapped in the matrix. each of us with our birthcharts(hardware) living out life thinking we have a choice. funny really because you will rarely choose whats outside the energies of your chart. Predestination or Free Will? Chicken or the Egg? Are you really choosing or just thinking that you are? Turns out your really only choosing from a small set of choices that are within your wheelhouse. its a small world after all.
Regarding manipulation, there's a book -- outdated and you'll notice if you read it -- but it's like a handbook on typing games and recommending antithetical moves to shut them down. It's called "Games People Play" by Eric Berne and it was published in 1964. After publication, the next book by the same group of psychological researchers (Transactional Analysis, popularized in the late 70's) is "Scripts People Live". the key element in shutting down games is to give the unexpected response -- not always the 180 degree opposite response. It's worth a read if you want to research this further.
I think your girlfriend is lovely and you make a great couple you are both very lucky to have each other. I am an INFJ and found an INTJ woman and our connection is also deep and amazing.
Hey Clay, I just now watched your video and there actually may be an explanation for astrology and it is rooted in physics. You should look up quantum fields theory and go from there
A book like you used here is too general . What is amazing is when you have a birth chart done by a GOOD astrologer. My husband and I had charts done back in the 90s and his house of work was mercury (he worked in telecommunications his entire life); his house of marriage had only a Scorpio (and I am Scorpio and we were married 50 yrs before his death); also he was told back in the nineties that he would retire by age 55. He actually retired at age 56 when his company closed down and he didn’t feel like going on interviews anymore at his age. There were other accurate things but these few stuck with me over the years. A good chart is down to the minute, the longitude/latitude, how rising sign affects your birth sign, etc. the general horoscopes and characteristics are mostly for entertainment and even though I’m skeptical, my one experience with an excellent astrologer blew me away.
"You are a leader with a warm and compelling manner. You have focus and vision organizing people and engendering their trust. Others admire and look up to you and you have sound judgement." - 7/26. This is from the website Astroligion.com which talks a lot about Myers-Briggs.
YES!!! INFJs are wrecking balls!!!!That’s accurate... INFJs calling things out in others. My INTP says the same thing about me. We take what usually goes unnoticed or ignored and bring it to the forefront to discuss. We don’t let anyone get away with anything 😆 Also, for people who are born by C-Section, they weren’t necessarily ready to be born... they were forced out so that could alter some things...
Ok, interesting argument about people born via C-section (or due to induced labour). I've never thought about it but if someone wants to a prove that astrology makes little sense at times it's quite smart observation and I must salute your intelligence. You seem like really witty person. You know there actually a really good career path for people like you who "We don’t let anyone get away with anything"- an advocate or a persecutor. Both love to fight to death across the court room using all sorts of intelligent arguments most people would fail to make. So not sure what you're doing but you should try law some day.
femmeNikita27 Haha! No way for law stuff! But I’d guess that might be why my partner who is an attorney likes me... a little fire goes a long way with him! The legal field is really uncomfortable for me as an INFJ. Hard to ignore all the funny stuff going on there... and there’s a lot! I’m a paralegal by trade not choice 😆 and I remember the first time I had to mail out a notice for a hearing... I cried over the trees that died for something that people would just throw away. Nevertheless, I am studying and practicing to become a psychotherapist. Maybe eventually I might look into mediation (where law and therapy crosses paths) but we will see! Astrology for me, despite the c-section argument, is really “guidance”. It’ll never tell you to “do bad things@ but will only bring self-reflection. I think it is quite the moral compass. It’s funny when people are dismissive of astrology. It’s less deterministic and instead promotes further self growth and alternative ways to deal with others in a positive manner. Thank you for the response!!
Santos Bonacci, Dr, Arjun Pai, Kapeil Raaj, Sam Geppi, Joni Patry are all good birthchart sources. I also like to listen to astrology by Rik on youtube. Reading your birthday in this book you have is a good start but you will find the real answers in your birthchart. i didnt look at my birthchart until i was 25. 13 years later now im still getting my mind blow coming to new realizations often.
So who else is not surprised that the INFJ female friend he talked about is now his partner. I was slowly waiting to find out where their relationship was now. Happy for you guys.
Ovcourse...not suprised. His body language and choice of words while he reffered to " this friend" told it all. I remember my comment here asking " are you sure that there is nothing here more than friendship with this infj female friend that you are not quite aware of yet?"
Now here! Another book to read!
We always know before LOL that she's the one aredy :p.
sameeeeee!!!
I'm just sad that I couldn't get to him (female INFJ here) in the nick of time first lol. Can't say I've ever got to connect with a male INFJ IRL but genuinely happy for their union :)
Yes, they are great together!!!!
I was surprised at how fidgety you became when she entered the video. Since I'm sure you do the editing, I don't think you were worried about what she would say. I think it was more about how close this all hit. I feel like even though you are on RUclips which brings you into the public eye you are still a very private person at heart. As an INFJ myself I can relate to being able to put myself out there but I don't like people to know EVERYTHING about me. I enjoy and appreciate your videos and wish you both well!
I agree with on Clay being very private and wanting to "protect" what is near to his heart.
AWWWW!!! Seeing you and your INFJ friend being together as a couple/unit makes me so happy! The chemistry between you two is undeniable-very much like magnets.
Wait until you find your moon and rising sign. You’re whole birth chart. 🌞✨💛
That and the other things are the gems!
Moon sign is important 💯
@@xamilshahriar736 extremely! MOON AND VENUS SIGNS 💖
I know my whole birth chart and I still can't relate 😐
I thought I didn't relate to my zodiac sign because of the moon or rising or venus or mars or whatever
Aaand I was totally wrong
@@sonia888 look into Vedic astrology. I don’t resonate with my western birth chart. Vedic astrology is ancient.
You really are an amazing human being. As an INFJ, I can confidently say all of your videos have really made me think about everything really deep. What pleasantly surprised me was the friend you introduced us to in the video. The two of you are so in tune with each other, and the vibe she brings to the table is so refreshing. I have an INFJ friend who I've been close friends with for almost two years. We have had almost the same experience to what you described and I could never imagine being in a relationship with her, but this really made me question everything.
I recently started to get into Tarot and oracle decks, it really blew my mind, it's not what I thought it would be like, you really go deep into your self with these things, It's amazing how accurate the messages you get on the cards are, you really start to question everything you know..
I find it amazing ☀️🌈✨
I have also done that, being sceptical at first, but I was suprised to find the readings accurate (most of the time) and funny enough more accurate when I do a reading for a friend. I do not do it often though. It's sort of a private thing for me. I will only tell or do a reading with some-one close.
Have you heard of the placebo affect? This is what is happening here.
INFJ here (at least, I behave at the moment -I’m 16- mostly like the “conceptual” infj, fit in this personality box the most, but as everyone is, I’m an exception -so in the end no one is lol-). I’ve greatly developed my Ti and Fi during quarantine, worked on giving myself more credibility and legitimacy when it comes to opinions, taking my own defense, and telling people the truth as it is, in a more bland way. I used to and sometimes still use to sugarcoat the truth to avoid conflict when in fact my goal is to “see”, discover, tell the truth. You have been a great inspiration for me towards strengthening this and have unknowingly contributed to developing this part of me that I now value a lot.
Anyway, I think an interesting experiment could be to ask your relatives/friends to read 5-10 different descriptions without them knowing which one is supposed to be you, then make them guess which one is you.
Have a good day!
"should i say my birthday here?"... after saying a popular parson's birthday is the same as yours... kind of already said it...
😂
I'm VERY into Psychology and Astrology.
I’ve noticed there's a HUGE correlation with both of them!
I'm also a teacher, some of my fellow coworkers think it's hilarious when I look into my students birthday's to see what kind a personality they might have!
I'm a July 16th Cancer Sun, Pisces moon, Libra rising ENFJ :)
Yaaassssssssss JULY 16 INFP-A and I promise you I read up on INFJ and I resonate with it also 🔥 I am Cancer Sun/Rising and Gemini Moon/Venus and a Tarot Card Reader and enjoy Psychology too!! Love your energy!
I’m in my last year of high school, super into psychology and astrology as well. Reading on my placements, I see how I was typed as an INFJ based on the cognitive functions. I’m a Pisces rising, Taurus sun and Taurus moon :) dominant house in my chart is the 3rd house which makes A LOT of sense with me. I still have a lot to learn though
@@kaloreadings4367 right!? Makes a lot of sense..
Same here! But I keep astrology only for myself. At least in my country astrologers are considered crazy.
ENFJ also :D with Gemini Sun, Cancer Moon and Virgo Rising and stellium in the 9th house
Im sorry to burst ur bubble but theres no scientific evidence of astrology working what so ever. They're just vage desceiptions of personality traits that everyone has. It isnt real
In the INFJ burnout video, you said something to the effect of maintaining a level 2 connection with a main person (I'm guessing you were referring to your ex wife), on a scale of 1-5, becomes very dissatisfying and probably depressing after realizing how amazing a 5 level connection is. Immediately I was hoping that you were now with this fellow INFJ, level 5 connection!! And there you two are, I'm so happy that I watched this despite being a little put off by the title, it gives me hope!!
You guys are a cute couple. Happy for you😊
I agree, they just look right together
Gosh i can't really focus on the content (lol), I'm just busy looking at this cute couple 🤪😍😂.
Thank you for exploring this topic with us! It was really an unexpected surprise when you introduced your significant other to discuss the characteristics of those born on your birthday. Wishing you both lots of love and deep conversations!
I am INFJ and I am an astrologer! If you go deep into astrology and astrology at the soul level is a great healing tool. I have helped many and every chart is unique. The natal chart is a blueprint of the soul. Deeply healing and it helps people to realize how connected we are and how each soul journey is unique!
I wonder if there are a lot of INFJers out there with strong 12th house or Pisces ♓️ placements.
That particular book, The Secret Language of Birthdays, is based on the work of pianist and personologist Gary Goldschneider, who assessed the personality traits of over 14,000 people by birthday to generalize characteristics for each day (no doubt drawing from esoteric disciplines like astrology). I found the description for my birthday also to be scarily accurate.
What the lay person usually doesn't understand about astrology and other esoteric practices is that they're nested in a much deeper philosophical and religious worldview. Just as the major religions of the world communicate the various expressions of a fundamental Truth through their individual doctrines, astrology seeks to communicate aspects of the differentiated Divine in the human being. Numerical associations in astrology and numerology have symbolic significance in relation to God or Spirit. The number 1 represents Spirit as Unmanifest, Indivisible, and Transcendent. The number 2 expresses the resultant duality when Spirit manifests itself through creation. The principle of duality trickles down from the Absolute (God as Creation and Transcendent) to every aspect of creation: positive and negative, proton and electron, male and female, day and night, up and down, in and out, life and death, etc. In Hindu philosophy this illusion of division in the Indivisible is known as Maya. The number 3 has further symbolic significance as an expression of the Divine. In religious literature we see it expressed in the forms of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost in Christianity and as Sat, Tat, and Om in Hinduism. Other numbers like 4, 5, 7, and 12 also have unique derivations and special significance and find themselves reflected in nature, culture, and religion as well. The 7 candlesticks during Hanukkah, the 7 lamps in the Book of Revelation, the 7 diatonic notes in a scale (12 chromatic), the 7 days of the week.
In astrology there are 12 signs total, 3 signs in each of the 4 elements, correlating with the 4 seasons of the year. Geometrically, the birth chart is shown on a circle (1), representing the whole, undivided personality. There are geometric relationships between points, angles, and planets too, with the opposition (180 degrees) representing the principle of duality, or 2. Signs that are 180 degrees apart have opposing and complementary characteristics. Trines represent 120 degree relationships, and Squares are 90 degrees apart. Planets found to be in certain geometric relationships manifest either constructively or destructively in the personality depending on the aspect.
TLDR: Without even getting into the details of astrology, it's important to know that it CANNOT be divorced from its religious and philosophical origins. Generally these esoteric truths are regarded as ancient wisdom that have made their way down to a relatively unenlightened age. While there may be particular differences in the different forms of astrology, just as there are differences in each religion's expression of Truth, the origins are the same. The Hindus have entire mathematical systems that explain the cycles of Creation, one of them being the Yuga Cycle, detailing the rise and fall of man. Such a cycle is comparable at least in substance to the Golden Ages of the Greeks, and while I'm not too familiar with Vedic astrology, I wouldn't be surprised if the Greek mythological origin stories of the signs and planets share some similarities with their Vedic counterparts.
There are far greater depths to astrology than the average consumer of astrological pop culture is aware of. I'd recommend reading the introduction to The Holy Science by Swami Sri Yukteswar to understand how astrology affects the consciousness of man.
What beautiful chemistry, admiration and mutual respect you have for each other! I have wondered what an INFJ-INFJ relationship would be like...might you consider sharing about that sometime? 💕 Has anyone else out there met their INFJ match?
I have the same bday as you (July 26) and have tested as an INFJ. I’d say that your book described me pretty well.
Ha that’s funny :)
Oh wow...another fellow july 26th INFJ here! Btw, the description is definitely accurate for me as well.
Thank you! I really enjoyed seeing the two of yoy interact in such a secure, wonderful way! Loved it. It's a great example for viewers -- of interaction in healthy relatuonships. 😃❤
I think astrology has gotten a poor reputation because most people don't understand how to use it. People with strong Ni are likely better equipped to accept the paradox of using a method that seems precise and scientific but in actuality is more of a qualitative way to tell stories about human personalities.
A story from my life reminds me of the strength of astrological signs. I was a teenager and was waiting for the bus. There was another person waiting. As the bus was approaching we moved closer together and she spoke to me, saying "you're a libra." It was a statement, not a question. I asked, "how did you know?" and she just kind of gestured at what I was wearing, which was thrift store clothes, loose and colourful.
That was our entire interaction. I still find it amazing because of the randomness and her certainty. Astrology isn't going to provide any definitive answers, but it can be a tool to better understand ourselves and each other, particularly for those of us with strong Ni, like that lady.
"Nowadays, anything could be right or true" - Clay reflecting on 2020-2021
Lexi seems like an amazing lady and I am so glad to see that you are a couple. The horoscope matter is kind of out there, but I did enjoy both of your remarks.
Clay...I just found an interview with Carl Jung on RUclips channel Kidmillion. ..As an INFJ it is wonderful to see Jung and read some things about his personality traits. Jung is a Leo like you 7.27 birthday. Jung seems very open. Jung said about Freud that once he made up his mind that was it. Both Jung and Freud analyzed eachothers dreams.(Jung also has
Autobiography book..a large red book about $100) Jung describes his personality as Intuitive etc ..
Soooo interesting...blessings
to the tribe.

Charming couple! I was born on the soltice cusp of Gemini ♊️ and Cancer ♋️ so I always say, "I will treat you so many ways your bound to like one of them!" I believe I am INFJ too.
The most adorable part of this video is how "bright" your energy got when she got into the video.. can't really explain but it's like a big a* smile from the inside radiated off even tho your face didn't really show it, it was real adorable to watch fam lol. Also ilike how when she immediately made comments about description about you that's absolutely not debatable and 100% true lmfao other than that she sat back and read into everything else you was saying from your words and how you was saying it (alot more than those 2 but ima keep it minimal). Both of you guys seem to have a very precise tongue so icould only imagine, how that argument would go lol....... but idk if it's just me but she seem a tad bit uncomfortable being like in the video but hey icould just be talkin. I could go on but ill stop here lol. You can be prideful and protective when it comes to your "true emotions" clay, ill leave you to find the mystery of your partner haha.
- Anyway keep making videos 🙌🏿
she was uncomfortable you are right :)
im an infj-a and i study astrology. i didn't believe in it at first sight, it was a knowing. I knew it, it was the stuff.
Beautiful energy between the two of you 😍🥰🙏 And it was a funny off topic topic. But most of it was accurate for me too, and my birthday is close, but a couple of days before yours.
The story you told about climbing is totally me. Like the challenge is somehow more important than the body 😬😆 Crazy? Yes 🤩
I got out of my astrology phase. It’s bad for my overthinking habits. Also bs. It was just a cycle of false reassurance on identity. Thinking for myself became an even harder concept to grasp. Being told i like to daydream because i have stuff on a chart actually takes me out of my imagination. It’s bad philosophy tiresomely shallow yet still reliant on emotions to keep an interest. At least in mbti there’s room for interpretation less prejudice and without having to pay someone money to have labels enforced on you for a quick ego boost.
Interesting! I'm, also a Lion and I was born in 24th of July, here in Portugal! The interesting part is that in the Mayan Calendar, the 26th of July is the first day of the year and the 24th, the last. The 25th day doesn't exist in the calendar, it's considered the Day Out of Time! I've been watching your videos since it looks like me talking! All my life I understood I was different and since little I wanted to save the world and help people! But what always ruined my life were the relationships. Catastrophic to me! And now I know! Thank you so much for charing! :)
Have you ever pulled up your entire natal chart? I got deep into astrology & tarot starting a few years ago and it was a lightbulb moment. I have Virgo rising, a stacked 8th house, and Pluto dominance. I typed initially as an INFP, but the videos I watched weren’t hitting the mark. It’s so interesting how it all fits together when you find the correct answers!
I am open minded re astrology, numerology,Tarot etc, the character descriptions of certain signs definitely can be pretty accurate, I highly recommend finding out what your astrological North and South nodes are - supposedly your soul's urge to move towards in this lifetime is your North Node, and your South Node where your soul is coming from and familiar with. Mine is spot on! I guess it helps if you believe in re-incarnation and I do! I did not grow up in a very Christian family so I do think that has some bearing . My mum is a Buddhist and my dad grew up Christian but is more Atheist nowadays.
I have that book. I also love Carl Jung, and the principles of Jungian analysis and transpersonal psychology. The study of man's The use of symbols, the Shadow, Archetypes, Psyche, and The Collective Unconscious, as well as Synchronicity all have a mystical quality, while appealing to those of us who need to make sense of things rationally.
Nice to see the two of you together, congrats to both of you! 💖
Astrology will become more accurate the more you read about it. If you do a birth horoscope with the exact time and place you were born, you will be stunned by the exactness of it all. If you “just” read about your birthday, you will only know your “sun aspect”. Then there is all of the other aspects to consider.
(my english is not good enough to explain....) But this is true, the more you read about it, in detail, the more exact it is...
Scary? Well, yes, and it is hard to explain, but being an INFJ you are definitely curious enough to know more.....
My brothers birthday is on July 26th, he’s an enfj (almost 25) I always feel he is a balanced person in his energy (masculine feminine) , intuitive in his dreams, and good business person. My nephew almost two has this same birthday 🥳 🩵 I am infj I feel I relate to my bro in an introverted , female version I’m an Aries born on April 8th.
Maybe it's just me, but I found it really interesting that like you, I'm an INFJ, my mom is also an INFP, she's also EXTREMELY into astrology (I can't tell you how many times over my life I heard her say she had to check "my chart") and my birthday is July 7. Not the same day as yours, but we're both cancers. That was too many similarities for it to not pique my interest lol
Perhaps if it doesn’t describe us perfectly it’s describing our highest self and evolve to that.
I looove this book! As soon as i meet someone i go look them up on their website and check our compatibility. For a little cookie I'll tell you the website 🤫
*slides over a cookie*
I've studied astrology since 1969. I find it corresponds pretty accurately to both psychology, and graphology (handwriting analysis). And, in fact, in astrology, I can easily see my "INFJ-ness."
There are so many different types of astrology: financial astrology, medical astrology and many other paths. So, in many cases, it is the concept people have of it that is usually the limiting factor. "What's your sun sign?" As other have said, the moon sign is important (your instinctive emotional responses). And Venus ("HOW do I love?") And keep in mind, most (if not all) of the Tibetan Dalais, at any "...An evening with The Dalai..." events, will encourage people to study astrology, in order to see the patterns of life. It's not just for looking at yourself. You can read Ecclesiastes 3 and you will understand what astrology proposes ("To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven...") I'm watching the video simply because, as an INFJ, I like the videos. When I saw this one, I went, "Hmmmm....lets see what they believe." She's using the "date" astrology. There are also degrees that are powerful such as "O" degrees or the 29th degree, called "The Degree of Expiation/Atonement". Jane Fonda has many planets in her chart on the 29th degree! It is not a life of ease, to say the least!)
Nice video, although one could hardly comprehend "purpose" in a short video. Even at 70, there is so much to learn about astrology.
As a fellow INFJ, I so appreciate your transparency and vulnerability in being brutally honest about yourself and sharing what you have uncovered, with whoever has an ear to hear what God is saying through you. This is my goal, as well, one that is currently "on the shelf" as I am struggling through a season of deep soul searching, seeking God's path, along with greater wisdom to more fully understand my "assignment(s)" for now and how to best implement them so they are the most effective/influential in people's lives during a time of great unrest and people are so divided and isolated because of the covid scare... also dealing with a recent move "back home" to the upper midwest where I was raised... re-acclimating myself (and my dog) to harsh winters, getting ready to move into a home my husband and I are buying, with a closing date of Jan 15, which is when I hope to transition back into working on my recording studio, building my aromatherapy business and hosting more gatherings.
I think the "pedestal" is something others try to put us on from time-to-time and in your case, doesn't have anything to do with pride or arrogance on your part. I think a more accurate interpretation of this part of the reading would be that "pedestal" is more of a place of separation, or isolation, caused by others' elevated opinion of us, as a result of our ability to tune into their struggle and intuitively bring them comfort and healing. This happens to me when I host gatherings where I share music and other things God puts in my heart, and because of the anointing on my life (and who God made me as an INFJ), people are drawn into God's presence (wherever two or more gather in His name, there He is also, and He always shows up with great love and healing in His wings). He's really the One bringing the comfort and healing, I'm just a conduit, and as long as I remember that, I stay "grounded" and in right relationship, with Him and the people I'm trying to reach and/or relate to.
I totally get the part about messing with the status quo and arousing antagonism (I've always hated the status quo because it keeps us back from being who we were created to be and doing what we were created to do...) and have dealt with a lot of retaliation because people don't always want to hear the truth, and can't see that what I'm saying is even helpful. I'm also learning a lot about how much to "sugar coat" truth... sometimes, no matter how nicely you say something, the other person will take offense (people get offended because of unresolved issues in their lives, not yours)... and so then it becomes a question NOT of how nicely I can say something, but IF I'm willing to say it, and pray the outcome to God, because ultimately the results are between the person and God (and no one else)... just sayin'
I listened to most of this (up to about 25:32) and determined that a LOT of what you're sharing here pertains also to me (born on November 7) and probably a LOT of other INFJs (no matter what day they were born) and lots of others, also (no matter what personality they have :) - so it's somewhat helpful, keeping in mind that it applies to more than just the people born on June 26.
Keep up the good work. A lot of people are empowered by what you have to share. Shalom.
Enjoyed the video, thank you for sharing Lexie with us. I would like to see her again in one of your videos. Im also a Leo, born on 8 August. I have read a lot about astrology at some stage in my life. My sun- and moon rising is in Leo, ascending in cancer. I have to admit, my results were very accurate!
Another great watch Clay, thank you. I always found myself scoffing at astrology too, but this reminded me to keep my mind open!
It was cool seeing a conversation in this one rather than your normal vids. Have you ever considered making your own podcast? I, for one, would love to listen to you speak with other personalities or other personality researchers about experiences or even to bounce ideas off of each other and explore certain topics! I think that would be super cool and I would definitely listen/watch!
Wait until you fine tune it further; by the year and time of your birth. Then you have a fingerprint of your actual chart which goes more in depth with degrees and house placements.
Legit. Your moon sign, natal retrogrades, the nodes...
I've read this book! And it makes sooo much sense. I've always believed there is a correlation between your birthday and MBTI. I've found those who are more extroverted tend to be born more between the 10th-19th of the month, with the more intuitive ones born around the cusps. Food for thought :)
I'm the opposite of this statement 🤣
Interesting insight
Something else i find interesting from these guys is how they start off listing a summary of traits. Positive to one side and negative to the other.
For example yours is 'Dynamic, influencial & attractive'. And on the more negative 'Provocative, Blunt & Difficult'..
Most 'normal' people tend to express a mix or lighter versions of the negative whereas whenever i meet what i would call a toxic person they fully express all the negatives of their birthdays.
Definitely one of my most interesting finds as per personality typing.
Ooh, cool book haha. Leo INFJ over here too, can't say I fit the description of a leo very well but I definitely seem to be becoming more of one every day. I wonder what the book says about august 18th 😂
Update: I walked into a bookstore, looking for some books about medicine, and behind me, I suddenly saw the translated version of this book. Ha! I got to see my birthday, and I have to say it had some very true things to say about me.
I relaaate Mr Clay!
I am at 8.14 right now.
You two are beautiful by the way.
12.40 now. My GOD, this is so "me" as well. It is like she is talking to me, through Clay haha!! Bless you Clay :D
I guessed 2 women's zodiac twice.
This is a true story.
The second woman had 2 rare idiosyncrasies someone else I knew had and when I guessed her sign, we both got pretty scared.
The first girl that I guessed her sign was apparently from me attempting to make a demon pact and I predicted meeting her.
Because of things even worse than sleep paralysis, I am currently entertaining Catholicism/Eastern Orthodoxy.
I now make an effort to avert my attention away from anything "occultic"
At least, it's not for me.
My mom is INFP too. I've kind of formed a theory that the types of a parent can influence a child, and I think an INFP mom can lend to forming an INFJ function stack in a child. My mom also raised me Christian, and I grew up analyzing and questioning things more then she tends to. You should further investigate how this astrology thing is done and make a video on it too, because I've been meaning to look into this myself.
Yesss highly agree I feel like we inherit “letters “ from our parents like Punnets Square.. my father is an intj mother esfp my mother’s mother enfp her father istj..they’ve always told me that I have my grandfather’s glare also my grandma was multitalented and I’m a mix of all of these an “infj”..
This was interesting. I love the way you two dive into the dephts of something your initially sceptical of, and then build upon that. Also, lovely to see how Lexi understands the train of thought and gives you a brief moment to contemplate before commenting. 🥰
Also, the truth. I totally relate to that. Blunt, non-coated truth is what I appreciate to get, and that is also what I give in return. It gets troublesome with certain people but I hate trying to read between the lines or guessing what the other person is implying.
Taking risks with dirt bikes, mountain bikes, rock climbing. Stimulation seeking
Straight talking blunt, direct communication style.
More than just a July 26 person.
I thought I was very Pisces. Until.
Imagine that, a new topic brings curiosity and a new challenge.....
I don't have a tv, so I'm just making a bowl of popcorn and watching your youtube on a FRI night :) hehe
great diverse content. Thank you. You're much appreciated, and your Lady is super cute and lovely too. thanks you2!
I'd really like to learn more about Lexi. It would be cool if you did a video interviewing her. Does she ever feel misunderstood? Are people intimidated by her? Does she think that it is more difficult to handle the haters as a female? When did she realize that she has a unique personality type? How does she handle being able to feel other peoples' emotions? I have watched a lot of Wentzes' videos and things are starting to make sense. It would be great to have another female's perspective on all of this.
"I don't believe in astrology but its fun"
Haha thats the exact same line I use. Its nice to hear someone else say that & I imagine it comes from the same discomfort of seeing truth in something that appears to be complete nonsense.
Its crazy just how accurate detailed astrology can be. Not the generic horoscope crap that can apply to everyone, but the actual detailed version of it.
How where & when you where born changes it. Which makes sense, it shouldn't be the same globally.
I don't like to believe, I like to know. But the older I get the more I realize just how little I truly know.
I "know" a lot about the natural world, animals & so on. But how much of that have I known myself? Very little overall, I'm just memorizing things I've read & heard.
Things I've seen on programs with heavy edits. Well the same could apply to a lot.
Nobody has time, & in many cases the ability to fact check for themselves everything they think they know.
So ultimately it comes down to a level of faith. Which leads to the question what is worthy of being held in faith?
I believe this is. Much like Myers-Briggs astrology can be used as a tool to help understand yourself & others better. Tarot & oracle cards as well.
However problems arise when people put too much stock in it & believe they know everything about themselves & others based on a label or some symbolism.
I am watching your videos for some time now, I am very much similar to you as an INFJ and surprised to be honest, although most INFJ's are similar but the way you narrate your stories and how you felt kind of made me realise we have much similarities than others, now this particular video showed up in my feed and I am literally shocked to know that your birthday is also July 26th, and the readings are similar, I am always curious about astrology and I wanted to check the authenticity of astrology many times by learning how they can predict.
You should also read your birthday from a book called "The Power of Birthdays, Stars & Numbers: The Complete Personology Reference Guide". I think that book is even more specific. In my teenage years I was into Bob Marley, I felt a soultie to his music and personality, and later on I found out we shared the same birthday (40 years in between). 😄
I'm a pisces and this is what I was all about and trying to connect with society to also being so well grounded n feeling I'm connected to the universe. Then I found out about being an INFJ so this is a great concept hearing your route to mine to see where this takes my mind to
The hair genetics is strong in this video.
OMG NO WAY! i'm late to the party but WE HAVE THE SAME BIRTHDAY :0 I'm literally in shock right now woah!
Wow.. This was a great 3am Diving Deep session..like is characteristic of my 72 yrs in this body.
And as soon as she came into screen, I could see in enegy and physical expression how alike you two are.
I am going to forward this to my new young friend, INFJ...
I have a similar reaction to astrology. I an cynical of something based on the moment of birth because I'm not a fatalist, but I'm also open-minded so I want to keep my options to learn open. This I read about it ... And, it's eerily accurate with a frequency that belays random data. I think "is this psychological bias?" or" is there something going on in the universe when we're born that I just don't understand?" Or" and I addicted to the mirror of self assessment?"...because of personal doubts I think this is partially true...So I keep all my knowledge channels open but cautious and don't fatalistically accept anything just from the page But thanks for doing this video I appreciate that you're checking out more than just Jungian ideas around personality
So Pretty😁Thank U Guys Searching For The Truth Absolutely & Speak From School Of Hard Knocks~Pursuing All Venues Lately
Building your business
Slowly and carefully.
Methodical and intentional.
Yes it’s just nonsense. No discussion needed.
I have been having this theory for a while that I’m sure I’m not the first or only person who has ever thought this but since my inner circle is pretty small the close people to me don’t fully understand but I found your channel and I’ve watched a few of your videos and is like you are reading my brain which is a very foreign feeling for me. I’ve watched your adhd because I’ve been diagnosed with adhd and also would say I’m pretty sure I’m definitely an infj who also happened to be born in July who was raised catholic.I did started getting into astrology a few years ago almost as a form of therapy to try to solve my traumas because no one else was helping and I started connecting some points with personality types, astrology and mental disorders diagnosis and I can’t help to hear echoes between all of them which almost leads me to believe that somehow they are all connected in a way. Idk is very abstract thought but I find it fascinating … really enjoy your videos
I too, spend months researching topics that I find when I try to speak to others, most of the time they have no opinion on the matter because it is all new to them. I've also had to learn to control that and give people more small doses of things. Or listen to them speak about things I know and understand when they come to an incorrect conclusion that there is certain information they do not have yet so for them the conclusion is sound. I've learned to cage my tongue lol
There certainly is a component, even from the Christian perspective. Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years. I think we fail to recognize that there is a reason why, when, and where we are born, and sometimes it takes us a long time to understand our purpose and place. I don't believe we are completely blank pages. Maybe more like we are already given a template upon which other things are built.
Best to not look into numerology either then if you have been surprised 😁 yeah Jung was a Leo with mercury in empathetic/intuitive cancer. (It's possible that you also have mercury in cancer) Having venus in cancer also would contribute to this more, or if in gemini you could be a very good communicator. Being a mix of assertive and sensitive is the Leo-Cancer. Different professions also have repeated astrological signs and numerlogical numbers if you researched it at all. I'm thinking you could be a 7, 11 or a 9 possibly. Jung was a 9 which relates to idealism and humanism. 7 and 11 are the two numbers about truth and spiritualism. Your birthday number is a 8 (2+6), so this is one component contributing to a sense of innate authority, but this won't be your most important number
The pursuit of truth. Same.
OMG I've been weirdly fixated on finding the best scissors and cutlery after a pair of tailoring scissors of mine needed to be saved after I used a sharpener (specifically designed for scissors) that had been assembled incorrectly, and just wrecked em.
So I started researching ceramic knives, and then that led me to the extremely time consuming rabbit hole of cookware and finding the best nontoxic, and finely crafted pots and pans that won't look dated and tacky in a years time.......... Ughhhh!
It's a problem.
Where's my valium?
I've seen that book, I looked through it when I was having a coffee with my mum in a second hand bookstore. It was pretty spot on
Always enjoy your in depth discussions on INFJ 's
Clay and Lexi sitting in a tree! 💘
And it is ancient wisdom, in regards to where it comes from. There is evidence from the origin of man, ancient Babylon, Egypt, Mesopotamia, etc. But still, look into it for yourself, you'll be an astrogeek before you know it!
Wonderful presentation 👍🏼
I'm open minded but never looked much into astrology because my basic horoscope (Capricorn sun, Virgo moon, rising) doesn't fit me well. in the last 2 years I've actually taken on delving into learning the whole system and I've actually gotten to the point where I have a more thorough comprehension of astrology than most of the people I know who are into it 😂 but I digress. I have definitely hit aspects of my chart that fit me well like Mars in the 5th house, Chiron in the 8th house, Uranus in Scorpio, etc. I've gotten caught up in moments of resonant incredulity and I've enjoyed reading into the symbolism as is my nature. at this point, I'm left almost exactly where I started. actually, I have a better understanding now of what I don't like about astrology. I'm not against it nor do I judge people for believing it but the fact is that it isn't reliably accurate. I've struggled so much with having my feelings and identity invalidated in my life so I actually don't appreciate having people project a set of false characteristics onto me because of my birthday. I think there may actually be a potential for harm in astrology this way and I didn't truly grasp that before. I guess it plays into my journey of learning to understand and validate myself and define healthy boundaries. in that regard, I don't regret exploring the whole system or have any resentment about it. it has been useful in directing a journey of introspection ☺️ I understand why people are into it but it just doesn't satisfy my standard of truth and meaning. I deeply believe we create our own meaning and that it has real significance on a wider level than we perceive. I will stick with my subjective view that explores beyond itself in a way that tries to encompass a respect for all possible subjective experience. I think validation of self has become too important to my sense of meaning to sacrifice ideas about myself to fit into an external, preconceived set of standards.
my mom had that book too and I recall that my birthday was pretty accurate as well ☺️ your girlfriend is very cute 😉
I look at it as a tool for self development-me, an INFJ.
This one is so funny, cause I got into astrology just like that 😂😂😂 its so scarily accurate (sorry my first language isnt english btw) but these personality traits are mostly decided on how the planet constellation was at the minute you were born. Every planet has like some sort of character. Like your zodiac leo is ruled by the sun, so there u have ur first traits somehow. But the other planets were still there at the time u were born right xD the planets all have zodiacs as well. So when u look at your actual zodiac chart u have way more zodiacs then one. Depending on the planet constellation, they tell u how u are most likely to act in certain areas in you life (for example work, family, identity, how u wanna be perceived by others etc) and when all these characteristics come together, you can build an instruction about how this person is most likely going to be. Idk how someone ever came up with all of that, but if u look into it, its really like a whole new world haha the fact, that everything seems so random and is yet so accurate, made me stumble upon it haha I still need to look way more into it. I dont even know, if my informations are right, but astrology is interesting for sure xD I never believed in that type of stuff at all, but then I told someone randomly at what time I was born and they just broke down my whole identity based on zodiacs and I was so freakin mindblowed that I still cant get over it 😅😅😅
Just found you recently, so very glad I did, your insights have really helped me understand more about myself and why I have felt the way I have my whole life. That aside, the topic of Astrology like the personality test can be a little general until you have all the information necessary. So with Astrology to get the most accurate information about yourself as it relates to the Universe you need to know your Sun & Moon sign (It's more than that but that's the gist) To do that you need all the information of your birth and the lat & Long of the location you popped out at. With the coordinates, time and date you can get the most accurate info. For instance, I am a Libra/Libra, which means I do not waiver at all from Libra traits. It is important to know your moon sign, without going into detail it's basically the starting point of how the information is derived about you as it relates to your various traits. Nutshell version! Anyways, I explain it as Astrology/Astronomy provides information a you as it relates to the Universe/Cosmos, your true being. The B&S personality information is how your true being has been affected by your surroundings, society, etc.. Hence the A&T to also provide a littler more clarity as it relates to that particular time and space in your life. My two cents. Thanks for what you do, it has helped quite a bit.
See but the rest of your chart is so important to get the full Jungian, archetypal picture... do you know your exact time of birth?
Omg she's so CUTE. DUDE.
Also, I want that book too lol.
As an an empath and fellow infj ive been studying personality types/zodiac and my intuition actually subconsciously since I was a child and the correlations im finding are astonishing. Along with my feelings with religion and humanity and they changes that have happened.......ugggg its hard to text all thats going through my head 🤦♀️ and being a gemini sun, 100% moon in saggitarious, also 9 aposing planets my charch looks like a butterfly lol and then add being and add being and empath and an ifnj....some would say im a super power or a hot ass mess 🤣.
It's nice to see you together. Thanks for bringing her in. It speaks well of a relationship when partners can come into the video presentations.
Nice to meet the infamous Lexi.
Lol infj here and I used to lead a very sceptical life, until I looked into astrology properly and checked out mine and others full chart. Very interesting
RUclips describes "trumpeting your message to all who head it" too perfectly! so cool!
What do you use to sharpen knives? I used electric sharpeners and diamond sharpens
Horary astrology is crazy weird accurate most of the time. William Lilly's "Christian Astrology", written in 1647, is one of the most important books in western astrology, and specifically deals with horary forecasts. Basically, you can ask a question that is really bothering you (the more emotional impact the question has the better) and then you take the date an time you asked the question and make a birth chart for it (which you can do using astro.com's free Natal Chart with Ascendant generator. I'll link it here: www.astro.com/cgi/chart.cgi?btyp=w2gw&rs=3&usechpref=1 It's a bit more complex when interpreting the chart, so I always have to get someone with more knowledge of horary to help me interpret the answer. Oh, and if you ask a question during a Void of Course Moon, it basically means your chart won't answer the question accurately, so it's best to only do it when the moon is *not* void of course. For whatever reason.
this is how we are trapped in the matrix. each of us with our birthcharts(hardware) living out life thinking we have a choice. funny really because you will rarely choose whats outside the energies of your chart. Predestination or Free Will? Chicken or the Egg? Are you really choosing or just thinking that you are? Turns out your really only choosing from a small set of choices that are within your wheelhouse. its a small world after all.
no man by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature.
You should also look into numerology if you resonated with your birthdate (26- 8= ambition/influence)
Regarding manipulation, there's a book -- outdated and you'll notice if you read it -- but it's like a handbook on typing games and recommending antithetical moves to shut them down. It's called "Games People Play" by Eric Berne and it was published in 1964. After publication, the next book by the same group of psychological researchers (Transactional Analysis, popularized in the late 70's) is "Scripts People Live". the key element in shutting down games is to give the unexpected response -- not always the 180 degree opposite response. It's worth a read if you want to research this further.
In fact, we can't just base on the sun, where are all the other parts of the chart ?
Not sure! I know nothing about this to be honest.
I think your girlfriend is lovely and you make a great couple you are both very lucky to have each other. I am an INFJ and found an INTJ woman and our connection is also deep and amazing.
ENFP here. Extremely spiritual.
Meditate w/effective non Religious aka
the Brightpath...
oh Geez my Dad's BD
was July 25th similar to yours
Same here. But I'm an ENFJ!
Hey Clay, I just now watched your video and there actually may be an explanation for astrology and it is rooted in physics. You should look up quantum fields theory and go from there
Same here. I believe it can be explained scientifically. No witchcraft here 😂
A book like you used here is too general . What is amazing is when you have a birth chart done by a GOOD astrologer. My husband and I had charts done back in the 90s and his house of work was mercury (he worked in telecommunications his entire life); his house of marriage had only a Scorpio (and I am Scorpio and we were married 50 yrs before his death); also he was told back in the nineties that he would retire by age 55. He actually retired at age 56 when his company closed down and he didn’t feel like going on interviews anymore at his age. There were other accurate things but these few stuck with me over the years. A good chart is down to the minute, the longitude/latitude, how rising sign affects your birth sign, etc. the general horoscopes and characteristics are mostly for entertainment and even though I’m skeptical, my one experience with an excellent astrologer blew me away.
"You are a leader with a warm and compelling manner. You have focus and vision organizing people and engendering their trust. Others admire and look up to you and you have sound judgement." - 7/26. This is from the website Astroligion.com which talks a lot about Myers-Briggs.
YES!!! INFJs are wrecking balls!!!!That’s accurate... INFJs calling things out in others. My INTP says the same thing about me. We take what usually goes unnoticed or ignored and bring it to the forefront to discuss. We don’t let anyone get away with anything 😆
Also, for people who are born by C-Section, they weren’t necessarily ready to be born... they were forced out so that could alter some things...
Ok, interesting argument about people born via C-section (or due to induced labour). I've never thought about it but if someone wants to a prove that astrology makes little sense at times it's quite smart observation and I must salute your intelligence. You seem like really witty person. You know there actually a really good career path for people like you who "We don’t let anyone get away with anything"- an advocate or a persecutor. Both love to fight to death across the court room using all sorts of intelligent arguments most people would fail to make. So not sure what you're doing but you should try law some day.
femmeNikita27 Haha! No way for law stuff! But I’d guess that might be why my partner who is an attorney likes me... a little fire goes a long way with him! The legal field is really uncomfortable for me as an INFJ. Hard to ignore all the funny stuff going on there... and there’s a lot! I’m a paralegal by trade not choice 😆 and I remember the first time I had to mail out a notice for a hearing... I cried over the trees that died for something that people would just throw away. Nevertheless, I am studying and practicing to become a psychotherapist. Maybe eventually I might look into mediation (where law and therapy crosses paths) but we will see!
Astrology for me, despite the c-section argument, is really “guidance”. It’ll never tell you to “do bad things@ but will only bring self-reflection. I think it is quite the moral compass. It’s funny when people are dismissive of astrology. It’s less deterministic and instead promotes further self growth and alternative ways to deal with others in a positive manner. Thank you for the response!!
The birthday book that I have is crazy accurate too. Under ideal partner it says my husband’s birthday. 🤯🤯🤯
Well that’s a coincidence isn’t it
You are both rather poised and composed. You look fit too. She can balance out your charisma cause she is charismatic as well. You are a good match.
Astrology is legit...I read a skeptic's birth chart and he felt called out and amazed that I saw his life....I didn't even know this guy lol
Santos Bonacci, Dr, Arjun Pai, Kapeil Raaj, Sam Geppi, Joni Patry are all good birthchart sources. I also like to listen to astrology by Rik on youtube. Reading your birthday in this book you have is a good start but you will find the real answers in your birthchart. i didnt look at my birthchart until i was 25. 13 years later now im still getting my mind blow coming to new realizations often.
