An Empathic Thinker
Practical, Conscientious? Or - not quite?
Gender: Female
Colour: Grey blue
Constitution: Thinking
Social Type: Empathic Thinker
In this iris photograph, we see a classic example of an Empathic Thinker i.e. straight, dense iris fibre, prominent and easily visible Psora, and a mostly introverted Expression ring. Two iris rings are also present—the Accomplishment ring (IPB) and Anxiety rings (circumferential contraction furrows), primarily seen in the second and third iris zones.
When quickly scanning an iris, we look for the unexpected or misfits—what we'd typically expect versus what stands out as being unusual. Here, we observe high fibre density, multiple Psora, iris rings, and a mostly introverted Expression ring. There's also more structure, and a switching pattern in the left iris - all of which fits the norms of the Thinking/Analytical constitution, so - what feels out of place?
First, the Psora largely fall into two categories, these being, large, dense and dark, or transparent and cloudy and undefined. In addition, they are concentrated in the lateral iris hemisphere, which can be challenging for Thinking types. Psora in this hemisphere often evoke feelings of being challenged or questioned, forced to "explain oneself," all experiences that Analytical types particularly dislike. Within this outer hemisphere, they are also more clustered in the first iris quarter, an area linked to ones formative years, sibling rivalry, and the individual’s establishment within the familial and social hierarchy.
While larger Psora typically display less analytical dynamism, this iris features three Combination Psora (see arrows 1-2-3). Combination Psora are literally what their name suggest, the combination of Psora, with a Lacuna in each iris, and here we have three.
The remaining Psora in this photo are either large, dark or cloudy. There are none of the well-developed, well-defined orange variety which typify a Thinking/Analytical type.
(having a stronger ancestral component), or are cloudy, suggesting a lack of focus, reduced analytical sharpness, even confusion.
Darker Psora (outside the expression ring) are mostly read as markers for "forks in the road"—i.e. physical markers for decisions with regrettable outcomes that continue to linger in the life of that individual. The specifics of each Psora is related back to the implications of the individual iris position it occupies. In the case of the Psora being more rectangular or squared, it is treated as a Resentment Psora. The positioning of Resentment Psora is less important and they generally have the same effect.
The two most prominent here are A-B, which would also qualify as Resentment Psora, due to their slightly squared appearance. This type of Psora can often lead to longer-lasting effects that foster stubbornness, awkwardness, or resistance. The closer they get to the periphery, the more they Physically block the individual.
Psora A is interesting as it sits directly opposite a single large, well-defined Lacuna in the area of Will/Rebellion. This Lacuna also has a Psora attached, making it a Combination Psora. Since all three Psora (A-B-C) are dense and dark, they point to stronger trans-generational patterning.
A & C structures are aligned i.e. ‘Rebellion-Devotion’ are on a 180 degree axis, which energetically connects them. The Combination Psora in the Rebellion position acts as a disruptive energy. We assign this combination a sort of Driver effect, which means it separates, break with tradition, creates change or draws conflict toward it, in able to react and cause change.
Psora (A) in the Devotion position, similarly enjoys challenging norms, or urging others to do the same. This position adds fire and conviction. Behaviourally, it has earned the cognomen the "Preacher". This opposition would be a strong influence in this person’s life, particularly aimed toward other women, as these traits are in the left feminine iris. The Devotion position is one of six lower medial iris positions. It is tied to strong primal survival traits, which include procreation, intuition, even inspiration. This whole quadrant of the iris is driven by deep subconscious roots, making the interpretation of structure here very precarious. Venture into this quadrant with care, and consideration.
The Expression ring in these irides is mostly introspective - which means a more observant, and watchful type of personality (in regard to the medial side of this ring). The lateral side will be more outspoken and socially active, as it balloons outward, particularly close to the Rebellion area. The Expression ring, overall, is quite squared, adding dynamism and some level of unpredictability, which is less associated with this Social type. The three orange arrows highlight intensity ‘spikes’ along this ring, especially in areas associated with Creativity and Escapism.
Health wise, this would be the Grey (acidic type) of eye. Typically, this iris colour is associated with hyper-acidity, a proneness to autoimmune disorders, or highly strung (sensitive) nervous system. The more dense the iris fibre, the greater, the latter consideration. They are more prone to variable digestive ability, and easily dependent on addictive substances. Dietary supplementation with the likes of magnesium, zinc and potassium is
In general, individuals with this eye colour prosper when avoiding more unsettling, busy, and noisy environments. They are by nature, warm-hearted, however their natural inclination is toward more solitary situations. They're natural ‘specialists’, often drawn to unique, intriguing, sometimes - taboo subjects.
More specific to this individual would be consideration of their greater iris density, with clear and well-defined fibre. This would suggest a strong, yet sensitive constitution and one that is being accommodated i.e. one already having some interest in health matters.
A squared Expression ring with orange pigmentation typically signals some irregularity with blood sugar, while cloudy pigments in the Anger position (right iris) and darker pigments may point to imbalances of the Liver, Spleen, or Gallbladder.
I titled this piece: An Empathic Thinker: Practical, Conscientious? Or - not quite?
As this Social type is typically more methodical, grounded, practical etc, some of the contradictory patterns here made this a more interesting iris to examine. Amid the strong Empathic fibre are three Combination Psora, Accomplishment ring, and multiple Anxiety rings. Added to this, an uncharacteristic squared and saw-toothed Expression ring, intermixed with a potent mix of iris positions that span Rebellion, Anger, and Rivalry.
This would not be your standard Empathic Thinker—they may indeed be practical and conscientious, but, the underlying tectonic plates are far from ‘firm and stable.’ This iris structure would be an expression of multiple generations of constriction and being held back, that now seeks to break the impasse and try something different!
