 Which
Constitution are You?
In the mid-1990’s, Daniel Goleman, a Harvard psychology PhD
wrote, Emotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ
for Character, Health and Lifelong Achievement. In his best-seller,
he cites that it is no longer true that industry and academic institution
only value a person’s IQ. He cites that “emotional intelligence,
or EQ, gives you a competitive edge.” While that may be true,
the Constitutional typology also values the differences between
EQ intelligence and IQ intelligence. While EQ’s will derive
their energy from being with other people, IQ’s will prefer
solitude to recharge their weary batteries. As you go through the
descriptions of each Genotype, you will quickly discern the difference
between them.
A Silicea is closest to the Spirit or “Geist” pole
and we can often identify them physically as the tall, lean, refined
and elegant creature they are as they seem to stretch themselves
closer to the Cosmos even on a physical level. They are IQ types
and derive energy from being alone. They are often noted for their
intellectual prowess, logic and sense of righteousness and justice.
They can be quite reserved and cool emotionally and they often have
to stretch themselves to relate to their feelings and risk allowing
others into their inner world.
They are often quite delicate and often have to be mindful of their
regimen as it is best if they get adequate sleep and food at regular
intervals. They are often mentally preoccupied and they will be
known to forget to eat which can weaken them considerably. They
are known to wear warmer clothes then the average and both adults
and children often need to be reminded that, “the seasons
have changed; snow hasn’t fallen for two weeks, so put away
the winter galoshes!”
