Pineal Dialogue
Icon The sun symbolizes the Pineal body type. Representative of intuition, the sun supplies light and awareness. More so than any other type, a Pineal's emotional state is positively affected by sunlight.
 
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
 
PSYCHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS


ManWomanThe Pineal body type has a strong physical need for sunlight. Both female and male Pineals have a small head in relationship to the rest of their body and may have difficulty gaining or maintaining weight. Male Pineals have a V-shaped jaw, a small-to-medium bone structure and a thin-to-average torso. Female Pineals have a defined waist, and may be long-waisted with small breasts or short-waisted with large breasts. Both male and female Pineals tend towards depression and may need supplemental vitamin D if sunlight is inadequate.


The Pineal type is highly intuitive, tending to retain their intuition longer and stronger than most types. However, emotional issues are generally a challenge, as Pineals will often deny their own feelings and let their intellect take over. Because of this, their challenge is learning to accurately listen to their intuition on all levels and balance it with their mental acuity. To ease the barrage of internal information, Pineals tend to "talk out" their problems, using it as a way of collecting, focusing or sorting out their thoughts. Sensitive to the emotional states of others, Pineals may absorb another's emotions and have a strong tendency to be caretakers.

BEST RESTAURANT CHOICES


The Pineal synthesizes and releases melatonin and is activated by sunlight. The Pineal gland is the body's "receiver" for intuition. It is also a key regulating factor in PMS irritability and mood swings.

"AT BEST"
 
"AT WORST"

  • Pineals have an incredible intuitive awareness with a clear mental focus, and are usually on the leading edge of new thought and psychology.
  • Blessed with a deep Universal connection, Pineals can directly access information from other dimensions (such as the collective unconscious and higher realms.)
  • Combining their own experience, awareness and interest in people, Pineals can successfully communicate their insights and become innovators in their chosen fields.
 

  • Nervous and high-strung, Pineals can get trapped in their mental progress and fail to accomplish their goals.
  • Pineals may become highly emotional, hyperactive and scattered when stressed, which can lead to an aggressive emotional reaction.
  • Pineals can have a strong need to be in control, affecting a strong superiority attitude and acting like they have all the answers. In spite of these feelings of superiority, Pineals often suffer from an inferiority complex.
