Is Jung calling you a crank?

[Quinlan]

The peculiar nature of introverted intuition, when given the priority, also produces a peculiar type of man, viz. the mystical dreamer and seer on the one hand, or the fantastical crank and artist on the other. The latter might be regarded as the normal case, since there is a general tendency of this type to confine himself to the perceptive character of intuition.

Burn!

 

[On my own path]

One who is generally considered strange to others

By this definition, I assume most of us are cranks

 

[enfp can be shy]

He calls himself a crank. Also some meaning may have been lost in translation there.

 

[Grey Wolf]

I'm a crank

 

[Shai Gar]

You're a Crank, I'm Eccentric.

 

[DoveAlexa]

You're a Crank, I'm Eccentric.

You're not rich enough to be called eccentric, you're merely insane.

 

[Faye]

You're not rich enough to be called eccentric, you're merely insane.

But as Jung said:

Show me a sane man and I will cure him for you.

 

[Zero Angel]

You're not rich enough to be called eccentric, you're merely insane.

Dont listen to her shai! She's a crank!

Oh wait...

 

[flowerz]

cranky?

Does he mean a "cranky person"? Or perhaps someone prone to moodiness or melancholy? Not inaccurate...

 

[Quinlan]

Nah he means if you don't use your judging function and let your intuition run wild you'll be crazy.

 

[flowerz]

So our intuition isn't always right? how can our intuition run wild?
