"When you counsel someone, you should appear to be reminding him of something he had forgotten, not of the light he was unable to see."
~ Baltasar Gracian, writer and philosopher (8 Jan 1601-1658)

Associate with sanctified persons. They may, by their counsel, prayers, and holy example, be a means to make you holy.

47. Give advice to others only when asked to do so or when it is your duty to do so. (This is very important. You don’t go around giving free advice or counsel. If people ask us, we tell them. I was asked, “Father Tom, say some things on Ancient Faith Radio. I say: “Okay, cause you asked me.” So when we’re asked, we can answer. If it’s our duty, if it’s our job—like a parent or a pastor or a supervisor in operation or a teacher—then we must do it. That’s our work. But we never give counsel or advice, unless we’re asked or unless it’s our duty to do so.)

Pi Time
Tumblr media
Global Narratives
The Pi function passively archives the information streaming into the psyche and, insofar as memory is faithful, will piece this information together with high fidelity into a map that is referenced thereafter when a parallel scenario presents itself. Pi produces a wealth of knowledge and can lead an individual to be prolific and well read; cultivating expertise on multiple subjects, as Pi specializes in width and scope. Often an interest will develop in the evolution of ideas over generations and centuries. Historical movements, time periods and dates may be amassed in the process. However, the Pi function has no interest in rote memorization, but instead in deriving meaning out of those datasets by weaving together the story of an unfolding landscape. Pi is highly stimulated by chronicling an abundance of cultural landmarks. Over time this may lead Pi to amass such a wide volume of knowledge that it may be prone to ramble on for hours as they relay the chain of events connected to any one situation.
Tumblr media
Philosophy & Counsel
Naturally, this hoarding of information will lead to great explanatory power, and with it also an inclination towards philosophy. Pi is a philosophical function, as it comes to generate a sense of “how the world is” and “what our place in it is.” This philosophizing is distinct from the conventional concept of one's life motto, and is instead a more formal attempt to explain everything under one umbrella schema or interpretation of existence at large. This eventually cascades into a surety of perspective and an ability to give counsel that others come to view as stable. The Pi function lends an advisor ability to a person, as it becomes possible to consult a person effectively when one is rooted in a given philosophy that broadly spans all domains, even if it’s not specialized too deeply in any one topic. This may give the person a grandfatherly energy, causing them to appear wise beyond their years. But Pi’s counsel will more often revolve around avoiding pitfalls/dangers and will highlight the usefulness of what is most understood or fleshed out.
Tumblr media
Steadiness & Temperance
Being introverted, the Pi function resists the object, and in so doing it views the outer world with a level of suspicion and distance. Rather than jumping headlong into things as Pe might be prone to do if it sees a big enough opportunity, Pi will evaluate life passively from a phlegmatic resting place. There is no need to rush into something until one has understood the situation sufficiently. Pi has a temperate view of things and is willing to forego immediate benefits for long-term trade-offs. It is more of a tortoise than a hare. Pi is a very grounding function; always painting a picture which – while continually evolving – is never too different from one day to the next. It matures steadily and doesn’t discard progress. It’s therefore conservative in the normal sense of the word. The Pi function is durable and can be difficult to shock/rattle when it has grown a sufficient understanding of all the main factors involved in a situation. Others will often experience Pi types as steady pillars in their lives, which usually carry a parental energy about them and a comforting familiarity.
Tumblr media
Probabilities & Predictions
While Pi spends ages studying the past, the pathway to the future also becomes more clear as the two are never seen as unrelated. Whatever has been true up to now of the world is anticipated to be true in the next moment, and the moments to follow. Both Pi functions have different ways of anticipating what the future will be like, but both generally expect  continuity and can help leverage this sense of continuity in their favor. Sometimes this can make Pi conservative, but this is not always the case. At other times Pi can appear radical if it tracks a trend that has an S-curve on the horizon. A political party's imminent demise may be forecasted, the long-term effects of people's eating habits may be brought into a conversation at every opportunity, or the exponential growth of technology may be predicted. In this sense, Pi can be a paranoid function as well as a hopeful function; the difference lies in the content of the data itself. Pi makes the psyche aware of probabilities, but allows the rest of the psyche to decide what to do about these forecasts. Pi is an informant who brings a report to the chief's desk,but as a reactive function it will not make the call to take any action by itself.

Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but cannot explain who set the planets in motion. God governs all things, and knows all that is or can be done. This most beautiful system of the sun, planets, and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent Being.
Isaac Newton [cited in J.H. Tiner, Isaac Newton: Inventor, Scientist and Teacher (Michigan, Mott Media 1975)]
