Brad Thompson is an introverted intuitive. He is open to the reality of the world, objects, and others, but has a special duality to his mind which is made up of equal parts of intellectual resources and sensitivity. This gives him great intuition and humanism, as well as a great sense of his fellow human and the oracular art of divining people’s unconscious wishes and motivations. In material terms, Brad has a talent for locating lost objects and a spirit of discovery and invention. Overall, Brad welcomes the signs arriving from the outer world in a positive and liberal way. However, when something does not satisfy him, he has the ability to cheer himself up rapidly and is quick to discover whatever positive aspects it may present. This involves a process of readaptation which requires formidable ego transformations. Brad is usually perceived as an idealist. Deep within himself, he senses the presence of a “new life.” It is the crucible of his ideal and all his hopes. The “new life” may assume the garb of various philosophies of liberation; whatever they may be, they all endeavor to revitalize alienated modern people, oppressed and downtrodden by Western civilization. However, in his striving to free himself and his fellow humans from a social contract based on the power of sheer lucre and corrupt lobbies, Brad displays a singular inclination to depend upon the very social forces he intends to topple. The reason for this is that, because Brad is quite sociable, the only thing he instinctively grasps profoundly is social action and organization. His perception of his own personality is vague or even negative. In fact, his grandiose personal gestures are motivated by a need to hide his unavowed feelings of inferiority and, at times, his fear of strong personalities. But Brad is above all an idealist. Hope is the prime mover of his spirit, and he is continually traveling along the axis of the hope/despair polarity. As he applies himself to ignoring whatever is impervious to his aspirations, he should acquire some certainty of what is still possible – for him and the world. In relation to his ideal, Brad behaves realistically, although others are unable to perceive his realism because he expressed himself in such an unconventional and eccentric fashion. Brad is passionately committed to the quest and research he has initiated and will pursue it with determination if not fury. He judges and defines himself in opposition to society, and human relations are vital to the evolution of his personality. An elitist, Brad does not believe in human
