The Seer function – introverted intuition – is one of the eight core functions of personality in Carl Jung's theory of psychological types. It's the ability to perceive underlying patterns and future possibilities, seeing beyond surface appearances to understand how situations will unfold. This episode explores how this function manifests in INFJs, INTJs, ENFJs, and ENTJs, and why it's often misunderstood even by those who use it naturally.

Introverted intuition operates through a permeable interaction with the unconscious, leading to that characteristic "just knowing" without knowing how. Jung described this as a form of unconscious perception, a legitimate way of engaging with the implicit realm that exists alongside the concrete world of sensation.
