The Light & Dark Side of each Instinctual Stacking

angel-1218605_960_720

This short overview describes the overall expression of each stacking at their light (high) and dark (low) sides. Akin to our “angel” and “devil”, “good” and “evil”, “conscious” and “unconscious” sides…

Everything in our lives can broadly fit into one of the 6 instinctual stackings, made up of the 3 instincts (Social, Sexual, Self-preservation) that drive us all (in varying degrees).

This overview can possibly aid you in recognizing your own dark/light sidesa warning that you may have to reverse the process by meeting the needs of your instincts.

(If you still struggle with typing your instinctual stacking or how to meet its needs, book a Get•Typed and/or Type•Coaching session with me!)

  2. Hi Olimpia. Which are the differences in stackings by gender? For example, I see that a lot of men that are Sx/sp are the womanizer type like Hank Moody of Californication or the Incel type that is obsessed with women and lose their virginity. But women that are Sx/Sp in general are like Glenn Cose in Fatal Attraction. With borderline traits, obsessed with do a symbiosis with someone. And about the other stackings?
