The Aeon
"He who has a why to live can bear almost any how. – Friedrich Nietzsche"
Description
The Aeon type drifts like a glowing comet in deep space, luminous yet untouched by time as they contemplate the meaning of their existence. They thrive in alternative systems of meaning using their creative spark to shape new ethics, alternative views and systems. They may weave spirituality, art, politics, mathematics and science into profoundly original movements, though without high conscientiousness they risk their utopian visions drifting away from reality. While lost in fantasy, they may forget what day it is and fail to notice their room is a mess as mundane reality pales in comparison to their obsessions. While most falter in the face of the chaos and suffering of life, the Aeon is unshaken and detached. In the face of global crises, Aeon's remain hopeful, calm and confident. The Aeon lives an isolated monkish life, detached from human feelings of frustration, despair and self-consciousness, and as a result may become a witness to life rather than a participant.
