Personality
What personality type is James VI and I? James VI and I is an ENFP personality type in MBTI, 4w3 - so/sp - 479 in Enneagram, SCUEI in Big 5, SEI in Socionics.
The ISTJ voter must be extremely ignorant about him - he was an almost archetypal ENFP; intellectually curious and adept from youth, peacockish yet ambiverted and self-conscious, avoidant of routine and convention, described as a 'leaky cistern' financially, a peaceable mediator (in his own mind)... basically the Gaddafi of his day.
Biography
James VI and I (James Charles Stuart; 19 June 1566 – 27 March 1625) was King of Scotland as James VI from 24 July 1567 and King of England and Ireland as James I from the union of the Scottish and English crowns on 24 March 1603 until his death in 1625. After becoming King of England he hardly ever returned to Scotland, enjoying a far more extravagant lifestyle at the wealthier English court. Angry Catholics, fearful of greater repression from the new king, tried to blow him up in 1605 in the Gunpowder Plot, which did not go well for them to say the least. James was liberal with money, running up massive debts, is believed to have been bisexual, almost certainly involved in numerous same-sex relationships, which didn't help his popularity. It also didn't help that he had virtually no interest with women other than his wife Anne of Denmark, with whom he apparently was infatuated for a while, but of whom he soon tired and a Scottish woman called Anne Murray.
