Yoda is soooo INFP.


Ne:

�Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.�


He seems pretty constantly focused on explaining the interconnectedness of everything (Ne), and he spends a lot more time talking about personal feelings and emotions (his as well as others') than does the obviously INFJ Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan's insistence that his lie about Vader "murdering Luke's father" was true "from a certain point of view" is classic Ni--but Yoda doesn't mince words or sidestep problems this way. His ethical view is private, personal and deeply ingrained--seems like Fi to me. He's always directly informing Luke of the dangers associated with losing touch with his own emotions; that's so Fi!

I think Fi+Ne is pretty clear. Where are you guys getting Ni or Fe?





Luke is pretty clearly ISFP.

Skylights demolished you long ago in this thread.

Her post can be summarized as "thinkers can be emotionals too".Which actually make my point since the few emotional side of Yoda are coherent with his INTPness.

Yoda is INTP, he is indeed looking at interconnections, so an Ne user, not an Ni user. But he doesn't judge thing in a value oriented subjective way. For Yoda must feelthings as they are withoud judging it, not make value judgment about this. So he is a T, not a F.

Luke is INFP, not ISFP, he focused on the future, not the present moment.

Only because that's how YOU want to summarize it.

Luke is another topic. He is focused on the present. At the beginning of Star Wars he whined that he wanted to go play instead of doing his chores (Se). His attacks on everything were direct: he directed the attack on the Imperial walkers - straight into their guns; the attack on Jabba's fortress was straightforward - just waltz right on into the hornet's nest. In the end, the Emperor goaded Luke into using his light-saber by pointing to his friends being decimated - something he could see right out the window.

It really is pretty obvious, like I said earlier: Ti's argue with logic, Ni's argue with ideas. Yoda's heart is filled to the brim with ethical knowledge and insightful NF poetry and philosophy. He barely riddles in logic, only once or twice to elegantly ornament one of his revelations. Nor does he deal in more 'dry-theory' like NTs.

Agreed. You have a far better idea of all this than SG.

No, Yoda critics him because he is too much focused to the future and not enough on the present moment. Watch the movie.

At the beginning of Star Wars he whined that he wanted to go play instead of doing his chores (Se).

He is an NP, so he daydreams about being somewhere else and dislike limiting concrete tasks. Normal. Beru Lars and Chewbacca are real SFPs, see the difference.

His attacks on everything were direct: he directed the attack on the Imperial walkers

He is so aware of his surroundig that the tusken warrior attacked him while he was using his binoculars... Actually the Lukes's lack of awareness of his direct sensory environment is obvious.

the attack on Jabba's fortress was straightforward

Hem, no. He spent a long time doing vain diplomacy before he truly take action. Typically INFP.

the Emperor goaded Luke into using his light-saber by pointing to his friends being decimated - something he could see out the window.

You're basically saying that Luke have a pair of eyes, so he is a sensor. Brillant.

I don't have to go digging up information trying to verify or knock down your arbitrary statements. There are Yoda quotes all over the internet. Find one.

Daydreaming about being somewhere else is what Se-dom does when it is stuck on a desert planet doing chores for aunt and uncle.

That means nothing.

What are you talking about now?

I've noticed something over the threads. Whenever you start a sentence with the word "basically," you're wrong.

No, you prefer to stick on one line which doesn't prove anything. Anyway, the entire movie is online, watch it.

No, they are focused on what they do, not on the future.

That means nothing.

Of course. It proves your wrong, so it means nothing. It's obvious.


What are you talking about now?

Spending a long time doing diplomacy and negotiating with Jabba. Luke is more focused on diplomacy than on tactic. He is an NF, not an SP.

Prove it.
