Jalen Green experiences his inner life as a process of growth and maturation, nurtured by his involvement with others and the positive and negative encounters this generates.

Because Jalen Green is a social being oriented toward other people, his personal interests often mingle with those of his associates or those of the group to which he belongs. He is motivated by a need to work in common with other people and to share life’s pleasures and pain. His commitments to other people are of paramount importance to his personal development. This dependence may present difficulties with individual self-assertion and make it hard for him to make decisions alone. If he wants to achieve inner equilibrium, he must behave in such a way that his actions yield benefits to others as well as himself.

While Jalen Green is attracted to interpersonal activities, his significant need for inner security may stand in the way of his overtures to others. Since Jalen Green is highly receptive to other people’s inner natures, he seeks tight bonds with others. He unconsciously needs their psychological support in his quest for himself. Were Jalen Green to evaluate his psychological development, he would place more value upon human warmth, intimacy, and the need to share than on intellectual understanding or personal freedom of expression.

Jalen Green is a realist. He approaches life pragmatically, and even his feelings are based on rational, tangible evidence. He bases his judgements on past experience and is prone to skepticism. A hard worker, he takes pride in his own endeavors and has a personal concept of his productivity. His possessions help him assert himself as an individual and act as an antidote to any feelings of insecurity. As a result, material accomplishments may preoccupy him more than either love as a passion or intellectual or philosophical considerations. Nevertheless, he becomes attached to anything which offers him certainty.

Jalen Green works harder than others to understand other people’s feelings. But this seeming lack of empathy and compassion for others simply mirrors Green’s own difficulty in understanding his own emotions and emotional needs. Green is not insensitive, but is baffled by his own emotions. He sees the emotional world as a foreign terrain, fraught with hidden dangers. Becoming familiar with it would present more drawbacks than advantages. As a result, Green may appear to be hard or aloof.

Green might struggle to establish a rewarding relationship, as he seeks special individuals to bond with. If he were able to accept and understand his own emotions, he would have an easier time grappling with other people’s feelings.

Green has a strong desire for emotional independence and might have trouble seeing other people’s emotional needs. He might even be the first to deny that such needs are real.

As a result, Green’s dependency on others is unconscious. Because it is seen as such a threat, it is repressed. Actually, although Green offers conscious resistance to anyone who tries to lure him out of his emotional bubble, he is always making timid, half-conscious forays into the world of feelings, because his loneliness and fear are so unbearable.
