Temperaments and (symbolic) colours
If you were to assign colours to the temperaments, what would they be? And why?
my suggestion (in order of "certainty") SP: red NT: blue NF: yellow SJ: green mark that "grey" is not considered to be a colour

what do you mean by "assign colors". do they have symbolistic meaning or...my point is just this: what are you getting at what. what is the point?
im just curious...not trying to be cynical or anything

I just use the original humour colors, but with a twist:
SP - Sanguine - blood - red SJ - Melancholic - black bile NT - Choleric - yellow bile NF - Phlegmatic - green This reverses Keirsey's NF/NT assignments to the humours. But the NT's need for mastery and competence is more traditionally Choleric, while the NF's diplomacy and even its people-focus is traditionally Phlegmatic. (Keirsey judged it only by "enthusiasm" as opposed to "coolness", but the familiar "loud, hot-headed" aspect of choleric is best matched by the In Charge interaction style, rather than an action temperament. So Interaction + Conation are actually two four temperament systems mapped to the 16 types).

@Eric: very nice. I forgot about that. I like the adjustment you suggest.
@mlittrell: explaining the temperaments to people new in MBTI might be easier through the use of colours. The letters are confusing at first.
