Profile 3/5: Martyr and Heretic

Your Profile combines learning through trial and error with the theme of other people directing their expectations and images onto you.

Trying things out and stirring up expectations: two lines shape the 3/5 Profile. The first number stands for your conscious side, the Personality, and the second for your unconscious side, the Design. On the conscious side, the theme is trying things out and making mistakes. On the unconscious side, you draw projections, and images form around you. The image is of a charismatic, persuasive person who only commits to someone who can handle their curiosity.

In this view, learning happens through risk, crisis and failure. This Profile also involves questioning who is in charge, showing what doesn't work, and adapting in times of crisis. Humor counts as both a strength and a shield: wit makes pain bearable, and it can also be a distraction.

When you're worn out, you may wish for a quiet life, yet giving up doesn't bring you calm. The third line draws you once again toward other relationships, ventures and journeys. People who bring calm to your chaos carry special weight for this Profile. If you embrace the chaos, life becomes more of a journey than a destination. The Profile goes by the name “Martyr-Heretic.”
