Ben Jolliffe’s psyche flows introvertedly. He knows himself and attempts to develop his inner resources to their maximum potential.

Ben Jolliffe is typically reluctant to team up with other people, preferring to act independently. This tendency can lead to problems, as he is not always aware of the others’ perspectives or needs. When he does team up, it is usually with those he trusts most, and he is able to work cooperatively with them to achieve common goals.

Ben Jolliffe’s uppermost concern is his personal, subjective interest. Because the development of his personal identity requires great individual freedom of action, Ben tries to free himself from outer restraints and limitations. Psychologically self-centered, Ben remains fairly detached from the social world. Ben reduces such commitments to the strict minimum. Individualistic and egocentric, Ben derives his feelings of inner security from his ability to command his will and handle his personal involvements freely and openly.

Ben Jolliffe thinks, intuits, and perceives things primarily through his inner psyche. He is open and curious, optimistic and enthusiastic, and eager to participate in everything happening around him. His affections are lively and spontaneous, but may be more intellectual than sensual. In a partner, Ben would seek a source of mutual spiritual or artistic inspiration. He is light-hearted and perhaps even fickle, never allowing himself to be overcome by outer realities or emotions. In its most exaggerated form, his buoyancy borders on indifference.

Ben Jolliffe struggles to get into natural harmony with the physical world and the limitations and restraints it places upon him. Idealistic, he tends to be somewhat disconnected from practical considerations, and barely pays any attention to material things like food, money, his surroundings, and so on. He tends to be footloose and fancy-free, oblivious to the necessities of survival in the physical world, until his lack of material resources – an issue to which he usually grants no importance – becomes an emergency. This feeling of being out of touch with material things and the physical dimension of reality may sometimes lead him to see himself as unfit for this world. He may think he cannot attach himself to anything that would sustain his efforts at self-expression. However, his impractical nature offers many positive aspects. He sees life’s possibilities as limitless. He is apt to develop his imagination or pursue a spiritual quest in order to transcend the material world.
