Tywin Lannister MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Tywin Lannister? Tywin Lannister is an ENTJ personality type in MBTI, 8w9 - sp/so - 136 in Enneagram, RCOEI in Big 5, LSI in Socionics.
Lets get one thing straight about Tywin Lannister, his vice is not lust. Lust encompasses an attitude of needing to experience intense physical stimulation in whatever form it entails. High speed, anxiety, loud music, love for the fight, love for activities which require endurance, and iverall anything that allows them to feel alive and engage in the present moment with gusto. The divine truth of the 8: “The awareness that the cosmos objectively exists now; that this existence is its own definition, and continues whether an individual understands it or not; and that the individual experiences the truth of Reality most completely when he views each moment fresh, without preconceptions about what should be happening.". This divine truth leads to an innocence of a somewhat naive attachment to the present moment. In the 8 there is the feeling of this being taken that results in a lust to experience stimulation in excess in order to retain this innocence. A fixation on living life to the fullest and a feeling of vengeance that they have a right to experience life to its fullest due to the feeling of it being taken from them. To them there is a sense of J deserve to experience life in the here and now, and I will do so unapologetically. Vengeance does not inherently correlate with evil or bad, as often this tends to be the sentiment of the status quo here on PDB. Rather vengeance is them taking their right to live in the here and now, and it can lead to a trap of justice when they see those whose right to live are being taken away by others. See Oberyin Martell for a great example of this, even Robert Baratheon in his attitude towards Lyanna. Tywin is not an 8. Nothing about him correlates with 8. In fact nothing about Te and Ni correlate with the divine truth of the 8 that is sought after.
