Jungian and Reinin Dichotomies
Reinin Dichotomies are 15 mathematically derived binary axes used to divide the Socion. The four Jungian dichotomies serve as the base to yield 16 types; from there, it is possible to draw 11 additional axes that each divide the socion exactly in half (8 types vs. 8 types).
Because these axes describe a type’s fixed mathematical position in the matrix, they do not exist independently of the model. If you identify one pole of a trait, the configuration of the others follows mathematically: No model — no traits.
- Sensing Types: Si/Se are in strong functions.
- Intuitive Types: Ne/Ni are in strong functions.
- Logical Types Te/Ti are in strong functions.
- Ethical Types: Fe/Fi are in strong functions.
- Extraverted Types: The accepting functions in the mental ring are extraverted.
- Introverted Types: The accepting functions in the mental ring are introverted.
- Irrational Types: Sensing and Intuition are in accepting functions.
- Rational Types: Logic and Ethics are in accepting functions.
- Static Types: The mental ring consists of Ti, Ne, Se, Fi.
- Dynamic Types: The mental ring consists of Si, Ni, Fe, Te.
- Asking Types: All extraverted functions have a "+" sign; introverted functions have a "-" sign.
- Declaring Types : The opposite sign distribution.
- Obstinate Types: Ti and Fe are in evaluatory blocks.
- Yielding Types: Te and Fi are in evaluatory blocks.
- Aristocratic Types: Intuition is linked with Ethics; Sensing with Logic.
- Democratic Types: Intuition is linked with Logic; Sensing with Ethics.
- Tactical Types: Se/Si are in contact blocks.
- Strategic Types: Ne/Ni are in contact blocks.
- Constructivist Types: Te/Ti are in contact blocks.
- Emotivist Types: Fe/Fi are in contact blocks.
- Carefree Types: Ne and Si are in evaluatory blocks.
- Farsighted Types: Se and Ni are in evaluatory blocks.
- Objectivist (Serious) Types: Te and Fi are valued (verbal).
- Subjectivist (Merry) Types: Ti and Fe are valued (verbal).
- Positivist Types: In the static ring, a clockwise cycle yields the sequence Ne–Ti–Se–Fi.
- Negativist Types: The sequence is Ne–Fi–Se–Ti.
- Process (Right, Evolutory) Types: Intuition > Logic > Sensing > Ethics. Clockwise in the mental ring, counter-clockwise in the vital.
- Result (Left, Involutory) Types: Intuition > Ethics > Sensing > Logic. Clockwise in the mental ring, counter-clockwise in the vital.
- Judicious Types: Ne and Si are in valued (verbal) blocks.
- Decisive Types: Se and Ni are in valued (verbal) blocks.
These are not "personality traits"; they are systemic and permanent—you cannot be a "Static" today and a "Dynamic" tomorrow.
The Main Error occurs when Reinin Dichotomies are used as superficial labels (e.g., "I’m an Aristocrat because I like etiquette"). Without the foundation of Model A, this becomes a "fitting room" exercise where people pick traits based on how they feel that day, rather than recognizing the rigid structure of the system.
