Personality

What personality type is Piper Halliwell? Piper Halliwell is an ISFJ personality type in MBTI, 6w5 - sp/so - 261 in Enneagram, RCOAI in Big 5, ESI in Socionics.

Dominant Introverted Sensing [Si]: Piper just wants to be normal. She doesn’t want to be a witch. Piper wants to go to work everyday, find love, and have kids. She doesn’t seek out adventure or the extraordinary. She’s perfectly happy to live a regular life. When Piper discovers that she’s a witch, she begins to wonder if that means she’s bad. Witches are depicted as evil and she is afraid to enter a church. She is very responsible and practical. Before she takes a leap and pursues what she really wants, Piper works at a bank, forgoing her dream job because it pays more and the family needs the money. Piper is hardworking, pays attention to detail, and likes for things to be neat and orderly. She believes that past events are a direct indicator for the future. She has doubts about marrying Leo because of how her mom and dad’s marriage ended and, for a period of time, believes that relationships in the Halliwell family are doomed. Her prior experience is the biggest factor in forming judgments about future events. Piper can become frustrated when reliable, established methods of doing something fail her. She gets upset when the Book of Shadows doesn’t have the answers she’s looking for because the book “never lets us down.” Auxiliary Extroverted Feeling [Fe]: Out of the Halliwell sisters, Piper is the most nurturing. She has a keen maternal instinct and can easily empathize with other people due to her warm disposition. She’s kind, caring, and the “best little helper” Grams has. Though Piper doesn’t like demons intruding on her life, she does enjoy helping others and being a force for good. She likes that she makes the world a better, safer place. Growing up as a middle child, Piper is also quite good at mediating and was always the one who kept Prue and Phoebe from going at it. She likes for things to be harmonious and wants to keep the peace between her sisters, often getting upset when they’re at each other’s throats. Prior to Prue’s death, she was the glue that held the Halliwell sisters together. As she matures, Piper has an easier time dealing with conflict and becomes more confident and assertive. Tertiary Introverted Thinking [Ti]: Sometimes, Piper tends to criticize herself as well as the people close to her. She likes when things run smoothly and strives for efficiency. Piper can be quite analytical and her Ti often serves her higher functions. When Prue dies, Piper tries a bunch of different spells and rituals to bring her back. She gets frustrated when she can’t find answers. “It’s like the book just deserted us and deserted Prue and I don’t understand why.” She picks up on mistakes in rationale and will point them out when necessary. Piper can become extremely stubborn when her logic leads her to a solution that she believes is the best option and can shut down other people’s opinions on the matter. Inferior Extroverted Intuition [Ne]: Piper is always aware of the ways something might go wrong. She can be quite cynical and anxious when thinking about how things might turn out, and can come up with every possible negative outcome. She’s extremely cautious and doesn’t particularly enjoy the unknown. Piper isn’t as good as improvising on the spot as her sisters. When the sisters need to come up with lies to cover their witchy ways, the others can come up with one much faster and easier than Piper can. Her sisters are also much quicker at coming to conclusions based on bits of information than Piper, who tends to struggle when it comes to following their thought process.
