Prognostic function of octanalysis

create conditions for the formation of Van Gogh’s «strange» behavior, which is perceived by others as an accentuation of character, bordering on a personality disorder.

Surrounding people often noted Van Gogh’s sloppy appearance, quick temper, and frequent fits of rage.

The increased sensitivity of Van Gogh’s psyche, the mood of the psyche to both introversion and extraversion, as well as the setting of unconscious actions for irrationality, spontaneity, working alone, the absence of subordinates in the presence of pronounced congenital managerial abilities, all these factors together create a feeling of discomfort in Van Gogh and a lot of stress on the psyche.

Therefore, there was a high probability that without the use of psycho-correction, Van Gogh’s psyche might not be able to withstand such a load, and the accentuation of Van Gogh’s behavior could develop into psychopathy. Vincent van Gogh died at the age of 37.

Applicability limits of

octanalytic personality formula

Vincent van Gogh’s octanalytic personality formula shows that all five instances of personality show congenital dominance, there is no deficiency of congenital dominants, which can lead to personality disorder.

However, the surrounding people perceived Van Gogh as crazy. This means that we have finally found the applicability limits of the octanalytic personality formula.

Deficiency of congenital personality dominants can lead to personality disorder. However, the life story of Vincent van Gogh shows that in addition to this factor, there are other factors that are not reflected in the personality formula, which lead to a personality disorder.

In this regard, it is necessary to consider the influence on human behavior of those areas of the psyche that are outside the five instances of personality (5-Soul, 4-Heart, 3-Irratio, 2-Ratio, 1-Mind).

To describe the human psyche as a whole, octanalysis uses the eight-component structure of the human psyche: instances 0-Source, 7-Imagination, 6-Subconscious and five instances of personality 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 3-Irration, 2-Ratio, 1-Mind.

Instance 7-Imagination forms images that strive to be realized in life. When a person is in a state of dreams, daydreams and does not want to get out of this state, then at that time the instance 7-Imagination dominates in his psyche.

When a person cannot control the process of generating images in his psyche, then problems arise called «persistent hallucinations» that prevent a person from living, interfere with any activity.

Instance 6-Subconscious stores in itself programs, according to which the images generated by instance 7-Imagination are embodied.

When the instance 6-Subconscious dominates in the psyche, a person can be in various states: a state of sleep, trance, a hypnotic state, a state of prostration, somnambulism (sleepwalking), twilight clouding of consciousness.

The interaction between the seven instances of the psyche (7-Imagination, 6-Subconscious, 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 3-Irratio, 2-Ratio, 1-Mind) create a wide variety of personality disorders.

1.8. Personality disorder: Konstantin Batyushkov

Consider the congenital personality traits of Konstantin Batyushkov.

Konstantin Nikolaevich Batyushkov (18 [29] May 1787, Vologda – 7 [19] July 1855, Vologda) – Russian poet and prose writer.

The mother of Konstantin Batyushkov, Alexandra Grigorievna (nee Berdyaeva), fell ill when her son was 6 years old; soon, in 1795, she died. It is generally accepted that her mental illness was inherited by Batyushkov and his older sister Alexandra.

In 1808, the maternal inheritance already began to appear: his impressionability began to reach hallucinations of extraordinary brightness, in one of his letters to Gnedich he wrote: «if I live another ten years, then I’ll probably go crazy.»

In 1822, the disease worsened; in the spring, Batyushkov appeared for a short time in St. Petersburg, then went to the Caucasus and the Crimea, where his madness manifested itself in the most tragic forms: in Simferopol, he repeatedly attempted suicide. In 1823, Batyushkov was brought to St. Petersburg, where E.F. Muravyova took him into her care, and in the next 1824, with funds granted by Emperor Alexander I, he was taken to the Sonnenstein private psychiatric institution in Saxony. There he spent four years, however, without any benefit to himself; and it was decided to return him to Russia. In Moscow, the acute attacks almost stopped, and his madness took a quiet, calm course. Back in 1815, Batyushkov wrote the following words about himself to Zhukovsky: «From birth, I had a black spot on my soul, which grew with age and almost blackened my whole soul. God and reason saved. For how long, I don’t know!»

Konstantin Batyushkov was born on May 29, 1787, the octanalytic personality formula

13 lunar day / 41-Scorpio / 92% + // 13-Gemini / 3-21-Goat.

The formula shows the congenital personality traits:

– Batyushkov was born in the «waxing moon» phase, the illumination of the moon’s surface is 92%;

– pronounced congenital dominant managerial abilities («four» as first dominant);

– pronounced congenital dominant creative abilities («three» as background dominant and as second dominant);

– pronounced congenital dominant rational abilities («two» as first dominant);

– hypertrophied expressed congenital dominant analytical abilities («one» as first dominant and twice as second dominant).

– deficiency of congenital dominants: instance 5-Soul.

The formula shows that out of the five instances of personality, one instance (1-Mind) manifests itself as a hypertrophied expressed congenital dominant, three instances (4-Heart, 3-Irratio, 2-Ratio) – as pronounced congenital dominants.

The formula also shows that in Batyushkov’s psyche, two introvert instances 4-Heart and 2-Ratio, complementing each other, show a significantly lower degree of congenital dominance than two extravert instances 3-Irratio, 1-Mind. This means that when interacting with the outside world, Batyushkov’s psyche is tuned more to extraversion than to introversion. In other words, in the «introversion-extraversion» system of Batyushkov’s psyche, there is a strong imbalance towards extraversion. Batyushkov’s psyche has a very low resistance to external stimuli.

The formula shows that Batyushkov was born almost on a full moon, the illumination of the moon’s surface is 92%. He has a congenital hypersensitivity.

In the three-component consciousness of Batyushkov (instances 5-Soul, 4-Heart, 1-Mind), a congenital 14-hierarchy is maintained:

– Instance 1-Mind («one» as first dominant and twice as second dominant) is in the first place in the hierarchy;

– Instance 4-Heart («four» as first dominant) is in second place in the hierarchy.

Properties of instance 1-Mind: analytical abilities, egoism, a sense of superiority, unscrupulousness, destructive activity, building relationships according to the scheme «I am higher, you are lower».

Properties of instance 4-Heart: set a person to build friendly, cordial relations between people according to the scheme «I and you are on the same level.»

When Batyushkov was alone, the 14-hierarchy of consciousness instances was steadily maintained in his mind.

In a state of loneliness, the natural tendency of Batyushkov’s psyche to extraversion, as well as the natural tendency to intense analytical activity with a 14-hierarchy of consciousness instances, combined with increased natural sensitivity, led to the continuous generation of destructive images in Batyushkov’s imagination that drive him crazy.

The formula also shows that in the two-component unconscious (3-Irratio and 2-Ratio instances, in other words, «three» and «two»), there is a balance in the «irrationality-rationality» system: irrationality («three» as background dominant and as second dominant) shows approximately the same activity as rationality («two» as first dominant).

This means that creative, irrational, spontaneous, unpredictable actions are manifested in Konstantin Batyushkov to the same extent as rational, consistent, logical actions. Surrounding people perceive such human behavior as charming behavior.

Konstantin Batyushkov’s charming behavior was combined with a state of insanity from a continuous stream of destructive images in his imagination. Batiushkov could not stop this stream of unpleasant images that interfered with his performance of any activity.

The octanalytic personality formula of Konstantin Batyushkov shows that a child with such a personality formula must be registered from birth in the octanalytic patronage system for psycho-correction and psychological support throughout life.

1.9. Personality disorder: Chris Costner Sizemore

Consider the congenital personality traits of Chris Costner Sizemore.

Christine «Chris» Costner Sizemore (April 4, 1927 – July 24, 2016) was an American woman who, in the 1950s, was diagnosed with multiple personality disorder, now known as dissociative identity disorder. Her case, with a pseudonym used, was depicted in the 1950s book The Three Faces of Eve, written by her psychiatrists, Corbett H. Thigpen and Hervey M. Cleckley, upon which the film of the same name, starring Joanne Woodward, was based. She went public with her true identity in the 1970s.

Born in South Carolina. According to her, the first symptoms of the disorder appeared in her as early as 2 years old, but only at school age did she realize that something strange was happening to her. The people around her did not believe her and laughed at her stories about the «other girls» living in her body. Later, her parents still showed her to the doctor because of strange memory lapses. He diagnosed the girl with «an unusual form of amnesia.»

Already in adulthood, the woman had to go to a psychiatric clinic – one of her ego states tried to kill her daughter Taffy. The first suspicion fell on schizophrenia, but later the psychiatrist Corbett Siegpen diagnosed her with dissociative identity disorder. More than 20 ego-states of different age and character coexisted in Sizemore’s body. The doctors first suggested shock therapy, which Sizemore refused, and the treatment was more gentle methods.
