Parker McCollum experiences their inner life as a process of growth and maturation, nurtured by their involvement with others and the positive and negative encounters this generates.

Relatively extroverted, Parker McCollum leads a life which is open to the outside world. His personal consciousness is forged by the heat of outer events. He is inclined to adopt the most objective viewpoint possible to be pragmatic and perhaps even materialistic.

Parker McCollum’s uppermost concern is their personal, subjective interest. Because the development of their personal identity requires great individual freedom of action, they try to free themselves from outer restraints and limitations. Psychologically self-centered, they remain fairly detached from the social world. They reduce such commitments to the strict minimum. Individualistic and egocentric, they derive their feelings of inner security from their ability to command their will and handle their personal involvements freely and openly.

Parker McCollum 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.

The numerous contradictions and tensions which are a recurrent feature of Parker McCollum’s astral theme balance each other out and endow him with a stable, well-tempered character. Indeed, they are especially likely to protect him from unsolvable frustrations and, in terms of reality, will enable him to acquire a certain social and professional success without too much effort on his part. At that point, he must be careful not to take on too many responsibilities. His confidence in his ability to accomplish things may make him spread himself too thin.
