PLANES OF EXPRESSION: TEMPERAMENT  

The four distinct temperament factors differentiate individuals and determine how we will go about the conduct of our lives.  Hopefully you have read the page entitled Planes of Expression before arriving here.

If you have completed the worksheet you are ready to analysis the results. The average distribution of letters on the worksheet will produce about 30% of the tally in the mental plane; 22% in the Physical plane; 33% in the Emotional plane; and, 15% in the intuitive plane. Thus, a name containing 19 letters might be expected to have M=6, P=4, E=6 and I=3. Now, let's figure out where your names works out:

Note: To figure the percentage in each temperament, divide the number of letters scored in each temperament (mental, physical, emotional, intuitive) by the total number of letters in your full name. This will produce a decimal number. Move the decimal point two places to the right to obtain the percentage. Insert the percentage in the appropriate slot, i.e. weak, average or strong.

Here are readings for each of the planes of expressions:

Mental:

Weak: Your name suggests that mental assertiveness is not paramount in your makeup. No matter how strong your intellect may be, you have trouble giving way to cold logic, facts and pure reasoning arguments. It may be hard for you to stay interested and motivated in mental disciplines. With limitations here, you may shun the idea of taking charge and calling all of the shots. You act on feel and experience, rarely stopping long enough to think things through carefully. Your hunches may take you further than others relying on proof.

 

Average: Your name shows substantial strength in the mental plane suggesting that you have the ability to think things through carefully before making a decision. You have little difficulty handling mental activities even when they become technical and complex. You are comfortable in a leadership role, but this may not necessarily be an essential to your well-being.

 

Strong: The mental plane is very strong in your makeup. You have a serious concern with logic, reason and precise fact-finding. Your motivating force is logic and hunches without the backup of a multitude of facts and figures won't get far in your world. You are likely to make a very strong leader in whatever competitive field you select. Your reasoning power may compete with the best in your environment.

 

Physical:

Weak: Your name suggests that physical or material interests are not paramount in your makeup. You would never pride yourself as being a very practical person. Indeed, your behavior may be anything but realistic and you really don't care. You may actually lack a solid sense of physical discipline and tend to avoid tedious and repetitive work when you can. It's hard for you to turn your many ideas into hard reality. Playing the game and competing at any significant level may be foreign to your nature.

 

Average: You are essentially a common sense person with a concern for the practical and the economical use of resources and assets. You have the ability to stick with a job and get it done even if it is not all fun and games. You have a healthy competitive spirit which serves you well without going overboard. Your ability to concentrate on the task at hand is solidly set in your nature.

 

Strong: The physical plane is very strong in your makeup. Practicality rules in your life and you focus your energies forcefully on the task at hand no matter how trying it may be. You have amazing endurance and your systematic approach suggests that you are a potential master builder. Your economical sense of values is hardly ever surpassed. Rarely does anyone work harder or accomplishes more than you.

 

Emotional:

Weak: Your name suggests that the emotional or feeling interests are not paramount in your makeup. This is not to suggest that you don't care about others, but you have some difficulty expressing your feelings or understanding the feelings of others in your environment. Indeed, you may have difficulty understanding and accepting your own emotional nature. Because of this, you don't express your emotions effectively and you may come off as being somewhat unsentimental.

 

Average: You have a healthy sense of sentiment and feeling. You rarely have difficulty expressing yourself emotionally, and you are reasonably well tuned into the emotions of those around you. Your emotional plane is strong enough to give you talents in originality and creativity, and you can occasionally impress with your artistic skills.

 

Strong: The emotional plane is very strong in your makeup. Indeed, your point of view usually contains significant portions of emotion and imagination without much concern for the facts of the matter. It's easy for you to get carried away sometimes. You are very original and creative and you care deeply for causes you embrace. You are extremely sentimental, sympathetic and caring. Your direct expression of friendship, affections and love make it clear where you stand.

 

Intuitive:

Weak: Your name suggests that intuitional or spiritual interests are not paramount in your makeup. So called intuitive awareness, psychic or otherwise spiritual matters aren't of much interest to you as you go about your daily tasks. The idea of developing inwardly pretty much leaves you cold. If there is an inner voice, you don't have much trust in it.

 

Average: You have a healthy respect for and belief in things that are outside of what you can know and feel. You are able to accept ideas of religion, spiritual development, and the metaphysical. You seek development inwardly as a worthwhile part of your life.

 

Strong: The intuitional plane is very strong in your makeup. You have a deep concern for the spiritual, metaphysical, and/or philosophical issues in life. You may often listen to an inner voice providing spiritual guidance and direction. You may be psychically inclined. Your approach to the brotherhood of man is compassionate and tolerant. Gaining spiritual wisdom is a major concern.
