a few things you should keep in mind when studying mbti
cognition ≠ behavior
yes, our cognition affects our behavior, and if you believe in mbti, it surely affects our behavior too. with that said, you should keep in mind that we are complex human beings and it's impossible for us to act exactly like our type all the time.
which takes us to the next one
mbti is also about motivation
it's not just about your first reaction to stuff or your mental process when making a decision. it's also about your motivation with your actions. you did that thing. why? what were you trying to do when you did that? what were you thinking to do that? were you trying to find an effective solution to your problems? or maybe you were just trying to understand how that worked and why it worked like that?
write down your mental process
this one, seriously, do it before you understand the cognitive functions!! write down your thinking process when making a decision, write down every single thing you can think about your personality. it'll be useful. also if you have the patience to do so, write a very detailed journal about your thoughts for a couple days but those tips will work only if you have self knowledge.
be careful about the sources you're using
this is so important, I can't say it enough. it's pretty rare to find a trustable source to study mbti besides the books so if you're checking websites, be extra careful please.
I'd recommend you to check this website https://www.typeinmind.com/ it's the most trustable source I found
don't trust tests
yes, there are tests that can help you to have an idea about your mbti (16p is not included for god's sake) like sakinorva or the mistype investigator test, but the only way of being sure about your type is studying the functions and having enough self-knowledge.

i. ASTROLOGY MEETS MBTI
pisces placements are rarely actually Ni users, instead they use Fi. Fi and Ni can be confusing and it makes sense since pisces placements are always confused between their intuition or feelings.
aquarius moons tend to be Fe dom/Fe aux.
gemini placements tend to have Ne.
virgo placements are the epitome of Te.
sagittarius/pisces moon are commonly isfp.
aries moon tend to be infp.
aries sun are commonly Fe users.
cancer (usually sun) men are always estp.
virgo placements (usually venus) are also common in estp.
the estp forum on reddit ive come across once discussed a common way for them to drop hints of liking someone is by doing little things for them that they would never do for others.
e.g. drive you home, open doors for you, wait for you to tie your shoes, collect stuffs you forgot to bring and etc.
story time: i remember a friend of mine who dated this guy that was clearly estp and we had to do a last minute birthday party planning for one of our friend, and he went back and forth just to get her anything she needed. a phone call i rmbr them having was:
her: hi where are you now?
him: im omw there, im actually entering the area now
her: oh ok nvm then
him: wait why what's up?
her: i wanted you to get us some ice at the usual place but you are already way passed the location so it's all good
him: oh no its chill i can go back and get it for you
they went back and forth to argue on whether he should or shouldnt and he insisted anyways so he went to buy what she needed like EVEN AFTER HE ARRIVED AT THE AREA.
AND AFTER THAT, when he arrived with the bag of ice she needed, she asked if he had his lighter with him and he said he didnt bring it this time so she said it's fine but he literally drove somewhere after that like IMMEDIATELY just to BUY her the lighter she needed.
i would agree with you if you tell me he was just head over heels for her (which he clearly was) but he does the same for his friends.
capricorns are always esfj.
it makes sense when you think about how the functions are Fe Si Ne Ti
esfj tend to have air sign as their north node/north node houses.
e.g. libra north node, leo north node in the 7th, gemini north node, taurus north node in the 11th and etc.
my speculation is that unhealthy esfj are common. despite being Fe dom, they can be very selfish by using the Fe dom for personal gain and against others. They are in service of others usually not because they care for the community, they need to function that way since their dominant function is people oriented.
the air north node/north node house is to help them healthily develop their Fe.
gemini sun scorpio moons are always strong Fe users.
e.g adriana lima, lucy hale, chris evans
earth placements ALWAYS have Si in their mbti functions.
they have very good use of storage memories. they can easily learn from mistakes because they all have a common mindset of "if it didn't work out before, it won't work out now. but if it did, keep doing it".
they always often think they use Fi instead of Si but the difference is why they are vocal about certain things. is it because it is from a strict personal belief system? or is it because it's unfamiliar and there had always been a specific ways to do things so you should just stick to it? if it's the latter, it's most likely Si.
also, Fi personal belief system is often formed based on their feelings through their own experiences despite the norm for their surroundings. on the other hand, Si is often formed out of memory of what your surrounding was like.
besides, earth placements really value tradition which is also a common trait in Si users.
ii. ASTROLOGY WALKS ALONE
air and fire moons are the most intuitive in comparison to water moons struggle to tell whether it's their feelings or intuition.
air because they can easily detach from their emotions so when they get an intuition, they can tell. also because they have the capability to rationalize their emotions too much but when it comes to their intuition, they just turn a blind eye because they cannot rationalise it.
fire moons because their impulsiveness is their intuition. when they act on things without overthinking it, it's usually their intuition pushing them to do so. however, when they overthink, they are more likely to think that is their intuition instead, when really it's just their clouded thinking.
capricorns live off comparison. whether that's through their achievements, friend group, career or etc.
because of this, they struggle to be happy for others since they cannot help but compare themselves to others which evokes jealousy.
the sign in your 5th house is usually the signs you consider as close friends whereas the sign in your 11th house are often the signs you have quite surface level friendship with whether that's one on one or a group.
this is because 5th house is leo and leo centers around personal love (attachment). on the other hand, 11th house is aquarius and it centers around community love (detachment).
NSFW:
men with cancer placements (usually mars/sun) ALWAYS have daddy kink.
— end of NSFW—
PERSONAL OPINION: libra moons SHOULD BE PROTECTED AT ALL COST. they do nothing but be concern over justice and equality over people but they really need to learn to stand up for themselves more.
the sexual tension between libra moon and romcom.
the sexual tension between aquarius and being a taylor swift stan.
i saw an observation once about this but IT'S TRUE. your chiron house is how you hurt others.
it's also true that your saturn house is also the karma others get after you both argue/end in bad terms with. however, the karma goes to whoever initiates the conflict.
7th house synastry can create an extremely codependent relationship.
moon conjunct 6th house synastry is the most underrated synastry in my opinion because the moon encourages & motivates 6th house person to really get through their daily routine/task.
virgo placements are mainly the ones occupying simp nation.
leo sun cancer moon combo always do quite well in the music industry.
e.g mingi from ateez, nessa barrett, dua lipa, chrissy constanza
having pisces in the 6th house means romanticising your life to cope with it on a daily basis.
i mentioned this before but it also means being so health crazy/paranoid but also feeling completely immune/invincible to any form of drug/alcohol.
natives with 6th house in pisces often have a really concerning and unhealthy relationship with caffeine cause their caffeine consumption is off the fucking roof, they're just fueled by coffee.
taurus have a much bigger ego in comparison to leo. this is more obvious when you compare leo moon vs taurus moon.
it's because taurus are extremely stubborn in comparison to leo. leo have the tendency to alter themselves for people they love just to get them to stay whereas taurus always believe people should learn to accommodate and tolerate to how they are and if not, they can simply leave.
—that's all from me!! i hope you enjoyed reading and feel free to share your inputs!! also, happy spooky szn!!!

Tricks for Perceivers: ORGANISATION AND TIME MANAGEMENT
The basis of the first part of this post is that perceivers are most content when they can do stuff whenever they feel like doing them. The idea is therefore to trick your mind into thinking you feel like doing it instead of it being forced. Here’s how you can do that:
1. Change the To Do title to Would Like To Do/Could Do/May Do or something along those lines, whatever you heart desires Though this doesn’t particularly work for me it could for you so I threw it in there. It’s pretty self explanatory - it helps you perceive the tasks as if they’re desired instead of demanded.
2. Switch location (and keep switching it) As long at the place you’re doing the task at is giving you that feeling of novelty that makes you a little bit excited, that’s great. Once it gets too familiar, however, switch it. It doesn’t have to be a drastic change, it just has to be a different place - e.g. a different room, a different table at a library, the opposite side of the table that gives you a slightly different view, different cafe… I wouldn’t change the location until it feels too familiar though because this nevertheless is about keeping the interest higher while still primarily focusing on the task.
3. Work when you otherwise wouldn’t I sometimes wake up at 5 am to study for an hour and a half before I head to school. This is not because I’d enjoy waking up early since I generally love staying up pretty late but because if you decide to do something at a time that’s unusual for you, you’ll probably feel ahead of the game and as if you have your life put together. It’s literally just about putting yourself in the mood for being productive.
4. Play pretend Actually getting ready, dressing into professional clothes or something cozy yet still put together and everything that goes along with that doesn’t only make you appear like you’re a productive and organised individual, it also makes you feel that way which will likely boost your motivation.
However, you’re still a perceiver, so… How to not go crazy:
5. Schedule the “no schedule” time Make it long enough so it actually feels like you have some time without any limitations regarding what to do and when to do it. This is especially important when you have hectic schedules. It may seem inconvenient and as if you’re wasting your time if you do that during the hectic week but if you keep following insane schedules for too long you’ll eventually burn out and end up throwing away even more time. Make it possible so that one afternoon or whichever long enough part of the day in the midst of all the crazy days you’ll have nothing scheduled.
6. Don’t plan, visualise Visualising allows you to imagine how you could spend your time in the future. This doesn’t put on the pressure to follow a strict schedule but it still makes you loosely determine what should be done the next day and when approximately. For me writing down a To Do list can be somewhat cool as long as I make it visually appealing but following it is a huge motivation drainer. So if I know that there are things that have to be done that already demand much attention and focus (e.g. studying), I avoid writing anything down, I stick to just having a loose schedule in my head.
7. The general rule When there are things scheduled for you, do not overschedule in the free time that’s left for you. When there’s little to nothing scheduled for you, schedule stuff for yourself to stay productive but only make 1 or 2 things per day strict. And not long. Add other stuff on the go.
8. Understand when you can work for a short time and when you just have to keep going to finish whatever you have to do Generally perceivers handle quicker and shorter tasks much easierly than the lengthy ones but sometimes you cannot avoid the long study sessions unless you planned ahead to avoid studying one day before the exam… but that’s less likely I’d say. Some people suggest to take breaks but beware of falling into a void of distractions and end up searching up for like an hour (or more) some random things that suddenly become so interesting. Once you stop doing the boring task and allow yourself to do something more fun you have to trick yourself into following a schedule all over again and that’s a pain. If I know I have a very focus-oriented busy day ahead of me I’ll prepare mentally the day before and just try to make the best of it, avoiding the breaks as much as possible.
Inferior Function Fascination
An interesting thing about the inferior function is that it can be a surprisingly noticeable part of a person’s personality. I think people have a tendency to be fascinated by it. I’d like to write about how each inferior function can show up in a positive way below.
ENXPs (inferior Si): Those with inferior Si can have a strong appreciation for things that remind them of positive experiences they’ve had in the past. They can also have an appreciation for aesthetics and have sensory interests such as decorating, dance, etc.
IXFPs (inferior Te): Inferior Te can cause IXFPs to strongly admire efficiency and logic. It may also cause them to be be good at leading groups of people.
EXTJs (inferior Fi): Inferior Fi can cause EXTJs to be interested in finding their identity and staying true to their values. They may find that they enjoy emotional stories and making romantic gestures.
IXTPs (inferior Fe): People with inferior Fe may dislike social disharmony and take steps to avoid it. They may be surprisingly interested in emotional stories as well.
INXJs (inferior Se): Inferior Se can lead to a love of beauty and sensory experience. It may cause INXJs to have aesthetic or physical hobbies such as painting, dance, etc.
ESXPs (inferior Ni): Those with inferior Ni may show interest in discussing abstract topics and trust their intuition more than expected. They may be interested in psychology or mystery novels.
EXFJs (inferior Ti): Inferior Ti can cause EXFJs to enjoy solving puzzles and challenging themselves. They may also find themselves interested in how things work.
ISXJs (Inferior Ne): Inferior Ne may cause ISXJs to enjoy writing, travel, or anything that allows them to be creative and explore. They may also be surprisingly spontaneous at times.

INFP
INFP to ISFP to INFP. I guess I'm an INFP again.
Noooo, I liked being "The Artist" ;_; My only solace is that there are creative giants out there who are also INFPs, like Tim Burton. Maybe I can be a tortured, idealist artist, who is never satisfied with his work.
Mhmm, yeah. Totally a starving, tortured, idealist artist here.

An amazing series where 16 people of each of the MBTI personality types live together in one house. I fully recommend this for whoever is a fan of the Myers-Briggs personality indicator.
MBTI Types as Michael Scott Quotes
ENFJ: “Do I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like to be liked. I enjoy being liked. I have to be liked, but it’s not like this compulsive need to be liked, like my need to be praised.
INFJ: “Society teaches us that having feelings and crying is bad and wrong. Well, that’s baloney, because grief isn’t wrong. There’s such a thing as good grief. Just ask Charlie Brown.”
ENFP: “Sometimes I’ll start a sentence, and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way.”
INFP: “Well, well, well, how the turntables...”
ENTJ: “The only time I set the bar low is for limbo.”
INTJ: “Guess what, I have flaws. What are they? Oh, I don’t know. I sing in the shower. Sometimes I spend too much time volunteering. Occasionally I’ll hit somebody with my car. So sue me.”
ENTP: “I saved a life. My own. Am I a hero?… I really can’t say, but yes!”
INTP: “My philosophy is, basically this. And this is something that I live by. And I always have. And I always will. Don’t, ever, for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who you are with, or, or where you are going, or, or where you’ve been. Ever. For any reason. Whatsoever.”
ESFJ: “Yes, it is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username. And I have a great one. Little Kid Lover. That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.”
ISFJ: “I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one someday.”
ESFP: “Sometimes you have to take a break from being the kind of boss that’s always trying to teach people things. Sometimes you just have to be the boss of dancing.”
ISFP: “I am Beyoncé, always.”
ESTJ: “Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate. So he’s not really a part of our family. Also, he’s divorced, so he’s not really a part of his family.”
ISTJ: “You know what they say? Fool me once, strike one but fool me twice.... strike three.”
ESTP: “Two weeks ago, I was in the worst relationship of my life. She treated me poorly, we didn’t connect, I was miserable. Now, I am in the best relationship of my life, with the same woman. Love is a mystery.”
ISTP: “Friends joke with one another. Hey, you’re poor. Hey, your momma’s dead. That’s what friends do.”
