The next instinct or "psychosis-hylomorphism" I'm going to cover is Magnitudinem.
Magnitudinem means "greatness" or "degree of greatness" and refers to a kind of eye for higher ideals and evaluation, which includes searching for truth and factual knowledge.
I have given Magnitudinem two alternative names that also precisely implies a focus on truth.
The first one is Cognitum which means "confirmed knowledge";
and the second one is Veritatem which means "truth" or "facts."
Magnitudinem is the most questioning psychosis-hylomorphism, which is connected with their focus on truth
and energy for public interest, keeping track of people in positions of power, and exposing lies and injustices.
So that's the central thing, as I see it, for the Magnitudinem-energy: to provide the organism of humanity with a function that assures logic, questioning, and focus on guidance.
Behind this interest lies also a drive or desire to achieve a kind of ideal, which can be likened to Fiduciam's idealism, but more grounded in justice and security than pleasure and comfort.
Magnitudinem does not avoid discomfort and is more ready to confront and attack than the other Sapientiam-types.
But with Corpus secondary in the configuration they become more gentle and tolerant like Fiduciam and Abstractum.
Magnitudinem has the following two weaknesses:
the first weakness is that their energy for idealized guidance and public interest can easily lead to authoritarian ideas and inhumane solutions to problems if they do not find or choose the right guidance.
When facts are used as a weapon or defense, this tendency can lead to dogmaticism and limitations in open-mindedness.
Facts and abstract ideals are often used as defense and cries for justice since Magnitudinem-individuals are often tortured people as a result of their questioning and need for evidence and righteousness.
This is one of the two most introverted types, who are not easy to seduce, makes independent decisions, and do not adapt easily.
The second weakness is that their questioning is supported by a peculiar lack of intuition, unlike the other two Sapientiam-types,
and can make them come out with excessive and seemingly paranoid accusations and claims about others.
Whether Magnitudinem-individuals really believe in their, sometimes crazy and ridiculous accusations, or just do it to test, provoke and manipulate, is hard to determine.
But it is probably this lack of intuition and the resulting fixation on evidence that often makes them tortured, full of suspicion and guilt, with a need to argue,
and even threaten or adopt a victim position, to get injustices and their own suffering confirmed by others.
This can have destructive consequences for societies and for individuals when some are singled out as scapegoats by paranoid and partial Magnitudinem-individuals
in their demands for justice, logic, and order without humility in which all must submit to the ideal.
It does not contribute to a nice and loving social-cultural atmosphere, and is the mechanism behind much of nationalism.
Sometimes they can also place their ideals over the principles of truth or justice,
but they always bring some kind of argument for their grand ideals supported by what they consider to be facts, and facts or logic are the only arguments they accept.
They need to let go of their need for grandeur and judging and the black and white thinking so that they can become more satisfied with themselves and with reality.
Fundamentally though, logic and the search for truth is something people benefit from and improves our science.
Like the other Sapientiam-types, we find great scientists and geniuses among Magnitudinem-individuals.
Max Planck, main originator of the quantum theory, is an example.
When he chose to study physics he said he did not wish to discover new things, but only to understand the known fundamentals of the field.
When the First World War began, Planck wrote that in addition to much that is horrible in war, there is also much that is unexpectedly great and beautiful with how the country comes together and praises everything good and noble.
He was not an extreme nationalist, but signed the infamous "Manifesto of the Ninety-Three", a war propaganda where 93 prominent scientists, scholars, and artists supported the actions of the German military at the beginning of the war.
Later, during World War II, he asked scientists who were thinking of emigrating to stay in Germany and persevere.
He was skeptical of the introduction of universal suffrage and later expressed that this was the reason why the Nazi dictatorship could rise from the masses.
Magnitudinem-individuals loves to point out in retrospect how they consider themselves to have been right in their suspicions.
They are never puzzled when bad things happen, but always say "I knew it."
He was deeply religious, and religion is something that can appeal to Magnitudinem-individuals need for guiding ideals.
Another trait that is common among Magnitudinem-individuals is a talent when it comes to music.
Planck took singing lessons, played piano, organ, and cello, and composed songs and operas before he chose to study physics.
Music requires a lot of competence and discipline, which is often Magnitudinem's strength.
Among great composers we find a lot of Magnitudinem individuals, such as Ludwig van Beethoven, Franz Schubert, John Williams, Nobuo Uematsu, and Angelo Badalamenti.
Also among great artists like Michelangelo, famous for his awe-inspiring grandeur and was called "the divine one."
Magnitudinem-individuals have the most idealization of "greatness" and often a hero worship.
This hero worship, or greatness worship, leads them to want to either embody the ideal themselves, or to follow and submit to someone or something that has these qualities.
Among authors we find, among others, Jan Guillou and Fjodor Dostoevsky as examples.
"What opportunities do you have yourself to continue this work with the exposure of the Swedish spy organization?"
"Can you, for example, publish the secret documents that you now have access to?"
"I can do it if I think it would be necessary..."
"Do you think it would be?"
"Currently not, no."
"But I told the court of law that it's an illusion to believe that you can hide the truth with secrecy stamps, and I'm serious about that."
During his academy years, Dostoevsky showed bravery and a strong sense of justice, protected newcomers, aligned himself with teachers, criticised corruption among officers and helped poor farmers.
He became attracted to the philosophy of socialism because of its logic, its sense of justice and its preoccupation with the destitute and the disadvantaged. But he had difficulty with the atheism of socialism.
He felt that a friend must be like a brother or more.
Magnitudinem-individuals, especially if they have Corpus secondary like Dostoevsky, often become famous and appreciated as courageous, fair, and trustworthy leaders when they end up in such a position,
which unfortunately is not very often.
Two examples are Mahatma Gandhi and Abraham Lincoln.
Abraham Lincoln disliked physical labor in his youth and preferred books and taught himself.
He suffered from depression, had a fatalistic attitude, and was famous for being honest and fair.
Honesty and righteousness were more important to him than to win or to succeed, and he said that "I stand with [someone] while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong."
Lincoln never gave his full trust in anyone and defended the US Constitution as the only guidance.
Of all his peculiar traits, it was said that his love for the truth was most apparent, and it was said that he lacked intuitive judgment.
With Corpus secondary, individuals become more self-depreciating, something that was said about Lincoln who called himself an accident, a humble instrument of the Almighty.
Humor is also something that's common among Magnitudinem-individuals, and which they share with Fiduciam.
It was said that humor served therapeutic purposes for Lincoln,
and also relaxed people in his surroundings, helped keep political opponents in their place, and won many friends and much influence, as well as facilitating his leadership as President.
Humor often give Magnitudinem-individuals vitality, a spice that keeps their depressions at bay.
Many Magnitudinem-individuals therefore become comedians, such as Henrik Schyffert, Johan Rheborg, and Robert Gustafsson in Killinggänget.
"Johan Rheborg... When I hear that name, the first word that comes up in my head is 'character actor'."
"He broke through with us in Killinggänget with a somewhat...somewhat ANGRY figure."
"But then, in the next series, Percy Tårar, he turned the steak around and did a somewhat...somewhat ANGRY figure."
"Henrik Schyffert... It is commonly said that if you're not handsome, you make yourself popular by being funny instead."
"You are very handsome Henrik."
"When we started with Killinggänget, the first question was, 'what the hell do we do with that guy who cannot do anything?'"
Or Claes Eriksson, Knut Agnred, and Per Fritzell in Galenskaparna & After Shave.
"Who the hell are YOU!?"
"You understand, one has to be wondering..."
"One has the picture clear in mind, of one's son-in-law, handsome and neat..."
"We are strangers still..." (Choir: Who the hell ARE you?)
"But our daughter is close to us, she's the dearest of the dear..."
"Because she is your wife..." (Choir: Who the hell are you?)
"From now on we will have to..." (Choir: Who the hell are you?)
"Now that everything is the way it is, like you as well!" (Choir: Who the hell are you? Who the hell are YOU!?)
"...And just when I've finished singing, you light up the fire..."
"So the whole earth will burn up! Everyone will be homeless and mutilated! You undoubtedly create a very unpleasant situation!"
"But no! You will not succeed!"
"I sure recognize you! It's you who is the wicked Lucia Lussa!"
"And you're the wicked star-boy Jod!"
"We're just going to Lussa for the neighbor..."
"Not at all! You will destroy the earth! But now I'll stop you."
"I'll throw you away! I'll take you like this! And I'll throw you away!"
"And then I'll take you like this... And then I'll throw you away!"
I go here alone in town on patrol
Ardently I do my job
Employed for the sake of law and order
Perhaps someone thinks I am bold
I do not at all want to be a snob
But say, is it not strange
That the better I do my job
The angrier you get at me
I want a hurray
I'm not made of granite
Why should only I?
When I'm at work get shit?
If you received a fine and want to kill me
Then give me your hand and say:
Hip hurray!
That was well done
Thank you for behaving well!
Claes Eriksson, the scriptwriter in Galenskaparna, has a penchant for the "little" man who fights against authorities and abusers of power.
"I don't think you are a doctor!"
"Well, I do not think you're a patient!"
"But I have a stomach ache!"
"Well, stand over there then..."
"Where?"
"But goddammit man! Do you repeat what I'm saying?"
Also Angry Video Game Nerd on Youtube can be mentioned.
Scriptwriters for comedies are also often Magnitudinem, such as the authors of the science fiction comedy Red Dwarf, Rob Grant and Doug Naylor,
or the satirical scriptwriter Darin Morgan in the TV series The X-Files.
Magnitudinem-individuals can also be sulking, with long-term resentment and desires for revenge,
such as the comedian Norman Lovett, who was called by his Red Dwarf co-cast "the moaner", and eventually lost his role in the series.
Or actor Michael J. Anderson, known as the dwarf from the TV series Twin Peaks, who's been moaning and thrown accusations against David Lynch and the TV show on Facebook after he had not been paid more.
Another example is the archeologist and egyptologist Zahi Hawass who has sulked and thrown accusations against Robert Bauval and left a debate with Graham Hancock in a known clip on Youtube...
They easily become hostile, and can even become megalomaniacs.
People's tendencies seems to be a compensation for something they avoid in themselves.
If Fiduciam compensates for the feeling of inferiority or mediocrity by faking talents,
Magnitudinem compensates for the feeling of wrongness and flaws by hating and accusing others as a defense.
Wants to be seen as a force to be reckoned with. Becomes their own worst enemy in order to feel better.
Magnitudinem-individuals can be called naturally schizophrenic, since schizophrenia is merely the extreme manifestation of paranoia and suspicion of being persecuted because,
for example, one believes oneself to be a target of someone, which is an element of grandiosity, that one might be important.
Much of psychoanalytic theory is relevant to Magnitudinem tendencies, since the father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, was a Magnitudinem.
For no other human type is the feeling of a judging super-ego within oneself as relevant as for Magnitudinem-types, and Freud naturally based a lot of his theories and interpretations on self-analysis.
Magnitudinem's feelings of guilt from not obeying their super-ego, as well as their lack of intuition or trust in themselves, is what seems to support their tendency to seek the right guidance, to seek ideals, and question anything else.
This questioning and mild schizophrenic paranoia is what leads Magnitudinem to become major conspiracy theorists with a need to expose and keep watch on people in power.
"Illuminati is for real. They are a secret organization who exist to take over the world."
"They follow Satan, and it is also stated in the Bible that leaders in this world are secretly meeting to plan to take over the world."
"This world we live in will go under. This world is governed by Satan."
The great Jewish or Illuminati conspiracy theory are examples they often pursue, also the 9/11 conspiracy theory.
Watchdog groups like "The Lone Gunmen" in the TV series The X-Files are examples of this Magnitudinem tendency.
The former Swedish journalist Barbro Jöberger, more famous under the pseudonym "Julia Caesar", was paranoid about the dental filling material amalgam after getting "oral galvanism"
and wrote that "There is a poisoning disaster going on that will go down in history as one of the biggest ever."
Apocalyptic tones are common, as with Infowars' paranoid Alex Jones.
Merkabah, an African-American Youtuber, has many conspiracy theories against blacks throughout history, that they've been manipulated and governed by, among other things, Christianity.
But just because Magnitudinem-individuals are paranoid does not mean that they are always wrong in their speculations.
Conspiracies and atrocities do occur, and to expose these seems to be Magnitudinem's function in the human species.
Whistleblowers like Edward Snowden, and Julian Assange, active with the whistleblower platform Wikileaks, are examples.
They appreciate honesty.
But sometimes, in their concern for public interest and justice, they can perform deadly and destructive actions themselves.
A lot of young people who commit school shootings are tormented Magnitudinem-individuals, such as Tim Kretschmer who killed 16 people in Germany,
Seung-Hui Cho who killed 32 people at Virginia Tech in the United States, and who saw himself as a savior for the oppressed.
Also the Swedish Anton Lundin Pettersson, the young school murderer in Trollhättan, can be mentioned.
Magnitudinem often see their own murderous acts as "great deeds" or "heroic deeds."
Other examples of violent Magnitudinem-individuals are Peter Mangs and Norwegian terrorist Anders Behring Breivik.
Meritum seems to be more common in the configuration of these killers, and makes Magnitudinem more ruthless, with desire for structure, order, and control in communities.
Such as Heinrich Himmler, head of Nazi Germany's SS organization.
With certain configurations, however, Magnitudinem-individuals can have a greater trust in themselves and do not appear to be as questioning or as much in need of guiding ideals beyond their own logic,
especially those who have Exitium and either Libidinem or Urbanum secondary.
Exitium and Libidinem increases an individual's self-satisfaction, arrogance, and often also their physical features of beauty.
Christopher Hitchens is an example, and also Jan Guillou, as well as actors like Sean Connery, David Duchovny, William Shatner, and film directors like Ridley Scott.
Another example on Youtube is Marcus Follin, who calls himself "The Golden One," "The Glorious Lion," and so on, who, like Michelangelo, try to inspire grandeur.
Bodybuilding is not uncommon among Magnitudinem-individuals who wants to give an impression of strength or impressive grandeur.
With Libidinem and Exitium secondary, as stated, arrogance and also narcissism increases, which can make these Magnitudinem-types into more bloated, boastful, bombastic, and eccentric individuals
who prefer to tell imaginative stories and use great words about their own heroism rather than real battles.
Nobody has ever seen him fight an enemy, but he assures us that it's only because they flee in fear of his divine physique.
I think this is what is called schizotypal personality disorder in the psychological literature, which is characterized by odd behavior and thinking and often unconventional beliefs about their abilities.
For example, inventing own words, or using common words in an unusual way.
These odd tendencies, which can be experienced as comic, can also be seen in Ridley Scott
and George W. Bush.
"Easy now, here..."
Just as with Fiduciam, it can be difficult to find examples of female Magnitudinem-individuals, since it is a masculine type.
It is possible that Camille Paglia is a Magnitudinem, probably with Exitium secondary.
One of her teachers said that "whatever statements were being made, she had to challenge them."
And she has never identified with being a woman.
Other possible examples of Magnitudinem-women are Swedish politicians like Anna Hagwall and Annie Lööf.
And also Mother Teresa, the female and Catholic version of Gandhi.
So those were some examples of Magnitudinem...
