MBTI vs. Astrology? - hissinghat346 - 04-28-2014 11:23 AM
I'm conducting a recreational experiment. I'm comparing astrology and MBTI the see if there is even a small connection. I've had many people trying to put me down and telling me there is no connection and how either MBTI or astrology or both is a joke. Please keep those comments to yourself. Anyways, could anyone who is interested in participating please list your MBTI type and your zodiac sign. It would be appreciated

I am an ESFJ (which is somewhat uncommon for males)
Virgo Sun
Leo Moon
Libra Mercury
Libra Mars
Leo Venus
Scorpio Rising
Description of ESFJ:
"The paragon of group experience, intent on ensuring that all involved have the best experience, and that they personally get to experience the group. They shine as the bright beacon of action-example, a lighthouse of what to be and do. Open, warm, in-the-moment and upfront, the [ESFJ] is a perfect blend of party and poise; an ongoing paradox of sensible bounce, colorful pragmatism, and gentle snark. To any group they choose to share their love with, the ESFJ brings a fantastic *pop!*
...
Though their interests may vary, the ESFJ, always aware of the desires and needs of others, is often found in fiction as the perfect host or hostess, super-mom, or as an ahead-of-the-crowd trendsetter. They combine the parentalness of the ENFJ, the force of will of the ESTJ and the bouncy color of the ESFP into a bright, warm, headstrong package. They're excellent at bringing together fun, savoir-faire and precision to help everyone have a great experience. With an Extraverted people-awareness to help them understand the needs and desires of others, a Sensor strength of being aware of the moment as they're in it, an EFJ focus on the meaning behind actions, and a Judger talent for plans to put it all into motion, the ESFJ is fantastic at making things memorable, seeing that everyone is taken care of, and that nobody is left out."
All in all...my MBTI personality type fits with my Leo qualities along with my Libra and Virgo qualities.

I am an INFP with an Aries Sun, Virgo Moon and a Pisces Rising.
If you want to find a connection, you would be best to look at the cognitive functions of the MBTI in relation to planetary placements. Bear in mind that, although an INFP and ESTJ are opposed, I think you will find that they have the same cognitive functions in a different order.
Many people have tried to see if there is a connection, and I cannot say that they found one; but, you can do as you plead. As to the MBTI, the quizes that roam the internet are not very good ones: "would you rather stay at home or attend a party" does not signify an introvert or an extrovert -- this, I believe, is what they mean by MBTI is a joke. I have no opinions of my own, however, for my own curiosity tends to get the better of me.

Astrology is much more systematic while MBTI is kind of vague
I'm an ISTP and Taurus
