For those of you familiar with his life and work, what would his MBTI and Enneatype most likely be?

 

[aconite]

Ah, that guy! I picked mostly Ni from his writings. I'd say he was a feeler, too... INFJ with well-developed tertiary Ti would be my guess, but it's a guess at best.

Enneatype: Sx/So... 4 of sorts?

Having thought about it, I would say INFJ 4w5 Sx/So.

I know it's 4/20, but really, gentlemen? One of the twentieth century's poster-boys for hedonism, an Se-inferior? And a Four, on top of that?!?!

For sheer humpenandrinkenandruggen, he is the gold standard. ESxP 7w8

Pretty much any type can express hedonistic tendencies. I'd actually read what he wrote, Meritocrat, prior to making pure value judgements on him.

I can only reason so far as socionics beta.

I can see why you'd think that, but the guy was a clear Ni-Fe user. Hedonism isn't limited to Se-users, and the way he added mystical significance behind everything, and actually opposed indulgence for the sake of indulgence would count against him being an Se-dom. I could see 7w8 Sx/So for him as well, but I think his fixation on self-realization, coupled with his seeming love and cultivation of his own sinister image is more similar to that of a four (though, he could be a 4-fixed 7w8, since that also applies to me).

@Promethea: What are your thoughts under that system? I'm not too familiar with socionics, but any info would be welcome.

 

[Jabberbroccoli]

I mean, I could also see him being an ENTP/J 7w8, and he was just messing with everyone.

However, if we were to take him at face value (sort of), I would agree on INFJ. Not quite sure about his enneagram.

 

[Myrkur]

I/ENTJ as hell. If I was to choose between these two, I'd say Ni-Dom.

7w8 or 8w7. with 4w3 somewhere.

 

[heavydirtysoul]

ENTJ, in my opinion.

 

[Aiwass]

ESTP or ENFJ. There is nothing practical about this guy lol. He is Fe valuing and Beta to the core in Socionics.

I think ESTP 8w7 is the best fit. He also had a strong INFJ shadow type influencing him - one of the reasons why he was so into occultism and esoteric knowledge.
