This result reflects a primary Spiral pattern, with Lone Wolf tendencies as a secondary survival strategy. This means your nervous system responds first with intense emotional flooding and overwhelm — then retreats into solitude and emotional independence to cope.
At the core, you’re driven by the Spiral: powerful waves of emotion, a desperate need for connection, and a nervous system that reacts fiercely when you feel unsafe or unseen. Your feelings can surge like a storm inside, sometimes bursting out, sometimes causing you to shut down entirely. You crave closeness, but when it arrives, it can feel too muchand too fast. Your body reacts by pushing away, collapsing, or pulling back — not because you want to, but because your nervous system is trying to survive.
Woven through this emotional intensity is your secondary pattern — the Lone Wolf. After the flood of feelings, you pull away to protect yourself. You value your autonomy deeply and tend to process your emotions alone, distancing yourself from others to avoid vulnerability or overwhelm. This self-reliance was your childhood survival strategy — a way to keep safe when connection felt risky — but it can leave you feeling isolated and disconnected from your true needs.
Your primary wound comes from emotional abandonment — not just people leaving, but feeling unseen and unsupported in your depth. To survive, you learned two key moves: first, to spiral into overwhelming feelings when triggered; second, to retreat into solitude to regain control and safety.
✨ The good news? These patterns aren’t fixed. They are survival adaptations. You can learn to soothe your nervous system, reconnect to your authenticity, and build secure, fulfilling relationships.
