Bentellect tries to stay grounded, but due to insecurity, they often become serious and steadfast individuals. Their ambitions are strong, and they will always be seeking a higher social position. Sometimes, they adopt a strategy of solitude and introversion.

You are plagued by a paternal complex and find it difficult to find your identity. Perhaps your father or a father figure was absent physically or emotionally during your childhood, depriving you of the patterns or models which are usually helpful in structuring a personality. Because you lacked a particular sense of security which could be provided by a paternal presence, as well as the examples of behavior to follow in confronting the difficulties inherent in every life, you were forced to protect yourself against negative influences and find your own system in order to grow and feel secure. Although this system was quite useful to you as a child, it has now settled in to such a degree that it interferes with your evolution. Psychological defense mechanisms and crutches which were once useful now encumber your mind or inhibit your developmental efforts. As a result, in certain situations, it is difficult for you to assert yourself, and you tend to remain an awkward or passive observer. Because your authoritarian urges are mainly directed at yourself rather than others, you sometimes feel guilty about your behavior. You judge yourself severely, and sometimes punishes yourself by setting difficult tasks for yourself. Gradually, you should build up a strong inner discipline and acquire the strength to face the problems of existence in a detached and mature way.

Bentellect has a taste for luxury and magnificence, for a dazzling social life and a distinguished career. When things are going well for Bentellect, they tend to think of themselves as the center of the universe, an attitude which those close to Bentellect do not always appreciate. Although Bentellect is quite likely to succeed in their ambition to become wealthy and popular and lead a remarkable life in the outer world, Bentellect’s lack of moderation and overweening self-confidence exposes Bentellect to some danger.

You are sober and rather reserved and may even strike people as harsh and austere at times. Perhaps you were raised in an atmosphere of rigor and sobriety, and, as a result, grew up very fast. You have acquired a spirit of self-sufficiency, tend to be rather uncompromising, and have a touchy sense of your personal dignity and worth. It is almost as though you were fighting an inner battle with your father or a father figure. The psychological models you received from your father or a father figure as a result of your interaction and your own interaction with authority may not have played a major role in shaping your relationships with the outer world and society. You may thus have been forced to compensate for this lack with individual determination. As a result, although you are skillful, meticulous, conscientious, and efficient, a lack of self-confidence and personal assurance sometimes makes you timid and hesitant. You sometimes feel as though you are only masquerading as a respectable, sober adult. You tend to be far too critical of yourself and rarely feel satisfied that you are living up to your ideal. These unnecessary guilt feelings may lead you to turn down the prominent career positions for which you are fully qualified. You are aware that early success is often short-lived and fragile and that time rewards those who know how to be patient and persistent, like you.

You are highly sensitive and receptive, living in a state of osmosis with your surroundings. Your individuality almost seems to be diluted in a flood of sensations and impressions which are constantly washing over you, and you sometimes find it difficult to communicate your feelings to other people or engage in any structured, analytical thought. This may stem from a lack of understanding of your teachers’ discipline when you were a child. Unable to understand their authority or methods, you may have withdrawn into yourself in self-defense. It was then that you constructed your rich inner life, the part of you they could not invade, and cut many of your ties to the outside. Because you enjoyed indulging in your inner life, it may have been difficult for you to acquire an objective view of reality. As a result, even today, you tend to create imaginary problems for yourself, regardless of the objective facts outside. Although your imagination is a source of inspiration and intuition, your fluid inner structure and organization sometimes make it difficult for you to grasp the essence of your dreams and share them with other people. You are not at all combative, and this tends to hinder your efforts to fit into society and assert yourself productively. You are likely to prefer fantasy to reality, but your refusal to abandon your unattainable dreams is a psychological trap you have fallen into without realizing it. You must understand that by running away from your obligations and commitments, you only increase the feelings of guilt and incompetence which made reality so distasteful in the first place. Once you free yourself from this pernicious process, you have a great deal of potential for fulfilling yourself in the outer world, either by devoting yourself to some sort of social work or by cultivating your considerable artistic talents.

Because you were born with a natural sense of individuality and an uncompromising attitude towards your own beliefs and values, you developed a strong and original personality early in life. Your first taste of liberty may have led you to challenge the education and values you received from family and class tradition, and you were able to forge a strong, independent identity.
