7 - IO - IMPE>OCAS

7s are always looking for a fight, some sort of physical altercation; they want to test their physical skills. In our day and age, there aren’t that many ways to do it. You can become an athlete, a criminal, or join the army. Becoming an athlete means you have to take care of your health and body, which 7s don’t really care for. Becoming a criminal means the lack of any structure that they thrive in, but usually pays more than joining the army. However, joining the army means you can potentially kill people, and that really draws 7s in. Because 7s comprise the majority of most military forces, they are perhaps the most crucial type to the existence of any country. They don’t really care about their health, but because they want to look good and be physically strong, they have to be fit. Even then, they would smoke, drink because they don’t think this affects the way they look. Very high pain threshold, and usually they have a few stitches and scars on their bodies (not even kidding). They are not very smart, and for that reason, do not like arguments, but if you dragged them into one, they will fight to the death, sometimes even physically. They believe survival is paramount, and they understand it more than anybody around them. That makes them think that they are more rational than others. They almost always have children even at a young age, because they like sex. Not for the pleasure of it, but instinctively. Obviously sadistic throughout.

They value symbolism, history, and often go to the seers, soothsayers, sages, etc. They believe in the afterlife, souls, and ghosts. That makes for a very funny combination. Imagine a drug lord who routinely kills people, with like 3 golden crosses on his chest, because if he doesn’t believe in our lord and savior, then he’s definitely going to hell. I also suspect that, since they want to survive for as long as possible, belief in the afterlife specifically is more important to them than the desire to go to heaven specifically, but then why would drug lords wear crosses? Even though they are often religious, they absolutely do not care about the moral norms that religion says people should follow. To them, their survival is much, much more important than some words in a book. Almost always, they do drugs, unless, of course, they are athletes, because then you don’t get to punch people and make money from it. Their belief in symbolism makes them romantic; they give flowers, write letters, etc.

They know the law very well, and when weighing paying a fine or going to jail against the displeasure of not punching someone in the face, they quite often choose the former. Later, they regret that choice because being in jail, even for a day, carries with it the label of being a criminal, and that is not good, because it means something (symbolism). But by that point, going to jail for another day is not as impactful, and the punching spree continues. The love for money, understanding of structures and laws, makes 7s great businessmen/women. Even if they are not business people, they can work a lot and usually find a niche that pays well and requires little work; security is their dream job. It might surprise you that they don’t want to work, given how much they like fighting, but they think “why would I spend my precious energy on this, what if I need to fight someone later” not literally, but that is a sort of instinctive thought that makes all of us somewhat lazy, taken to the extreme by 7s. 7s like to learn things about the world, but only the stuff that helps them act instinctively better later. They could watch videos of other people fighting, or of people playing the games they like, if they are more sports-oriented. They like to control their partner and establish some sort of labeled relationship (boyfriend, husband). Usually struggling to establish meaningful relationships, they believe that nobody likes them and that they are evil, and nobody can like them. Worried about people betraying them, and so they don’t trust anyone except for their family, or I guess I should say blood - mother, father, brother, but not wife, father/brother-in-law. Evolutionary adaptation.

7s are really interesting in how they communicate. When in a new company, they study people, try to understand what drives them, and what they want. At this stage, they are quite introverted, barely talk, respond to questions, and ask questions to gather more information about the person or the group. And the more they know, the more talkative they become, eventually becoming as extroverted as they get, they like touching people, and things really, it is an instinctual way for people to claim territory, and for 7s it is again taken to extreme. Another way to claim territory is to smell, 7s smell of sweat or cologne (or blood), but they always smell of something. Finally, they like to talk and play music very loudly, for the same reason. They like weddings, holidays, and celebrations for the emotional atmosphere they bring. By the way, despite what you might think, women who are 7s are actually quite frequent and look and act completely adequate. They dress pretty well, wear perfume, and they act quite feminine in fact, but they prefer to hang out with men. Pretty much everything I described above applies to both sexes.
