How individuation affects typing/self-consistency

I've been trying to type myself for a while, and I can usually get pretty close to narrowing down traits. But one thing I've been working on in therapy is allowing myself to properly individuate and just embrace myself without editing and living in survival mode. It's tricky though because my personality, type, behavior, all change based on my situation and what I'm doing in the moment. I have almost no consistent values and hide both strengths and weaknesses, so when others type me, or I have ai give me ideas, it's almost always different

How far does individuation go with typing yourself? Do you still embody your type/self even if your persona runs deep?

I can pin down some consistent traits but most of them have to do with me living in fear of not having total freedom when I'm able to finally live on my own/out of school

What kinds of things are out there for me to do now?

I am graduating next month with my master's in GIS, and I have a bachelor's in earth science. I have a really strong lead on an internship this summer for sustainability communication. But after that, I have no idea what I'm going to do. I chose these paths because they were in my interests, skill set, and idea of practical degree options. But I never stopped to think about what I want to do

One of my friends suggested research assistant, I have a slight idea to look into what phd programs would require (idk anything about them but I love the thought of further using my background to apply to climate science), or just to apply into the void and see what sticks

I think I would love to do something with scientific communication, and/or climate science. But I don't really know where to start to narrow it down. I'd like to use both degrees but it's not necessary, GIS especially was just to check boxes for job applications, but I wouldn't mind using either one/both in my work

Nonlinear ways of seeing personality

I got really far in depth with the personality theories like mbti, enneagram, socionics, etc. But now I've kind of reached the point of diminishing returns where it's still fun but there's little left for me to explore. The only thing that's left is making the 2D theory 3D in real life

What are some ways you look at personality that go beyond the scope of confined traits? I think as I get out more and talk to people it'll come more naturally to me; I don't really think of types when I'm interacting directly with people, just a fun thought experiment in between. But I kind of want to take these as a model and find ways of broadening the scope that my current observations led me to, without looking at everything on axes

EII sp6 vs LII sp6

I know EII is regarded as the archetype for sp6 but I've seen arguments for LII too. First off, is this a thing? Then if you think so, what would the most like AP/PY types be? 2E + 1d Fe sounds weird to me but idk if it would work still with LII
