Sorry about the "other way up" thing. I didn't see the INTP set going down. I could only see the sequence going up for some reason. Nadir has made it all clear.Sorry I could not get to the forum.
I shall try to answer your questions.
You see the continuum of the 8 that runs through the square. Stop at the fourth number 8. You have number 1 under it. Follow the continuum of 1 down to the end.
Now you have marked a border. Look at the triangle inside the border.
You see the vertical column left. Do not touch the border.
3+2 = 5
5+4 = 9
7+6 = 13
5+4 = 13-4
You see also the triangle up and down and on the right.
36 = 9X4
= 13+13+5+5
The nine is the key number.
If the ten makes you uncomfy forget it. Big deal.
Did you say that ESTP is the complementary partner of INTP? No way.
The complementary partners stand on a continuum. All the NTs have the numbers (in diverse order of course) seven and four and one and six in the anterior package. This should be reflected in the posterior package of the SP. Save number seven, this is not the case. Their posterior numbers are five six seven and eight.
What should be the other way up?
As for these internal patterns, what do they describe? It is of no use to know that according to this table the top left corner adds up to 26 without the context of knowing what that 26 means. What you are doing so far is comparable to the answer brought by Deep Thought in "The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy". 42 is quite possibly the answer to life and everything but what does 42 mean? Ergo my question is what does 9 mean? What question does 36 answer? It is these questions which still bore at my brain.
