How does emperor Sheev palpatine compare with the humanist and friendly Padmé Amidala Naberrie?
Naboo is a fictional planet in the Star Wars universe where two independent societies co-exist: the human Naboo and the native Gungans. It has a bountiful supply of green spaces, splendid landscapes, and underwater cities where the Gungans dwell. The human Naboo live in colonies dispersed on the surface.
The Humans had colonized the planet after a crash land. In Episode, I: The Phantom Menace, Padmé Amidala begins her reign as the Queen of Naboo. Palpatine is depicted as a master manipulator, a middle-aged politician who rises to the senate, becomes Galactic Senator and then Supreme Chancellor.
Enneagram Type Three
AttentionThe Three’s attention goes to performance, prestige and seeking status for approval.

He manages to transform the democratic Republic into an authoritarian state and then anoints himself Galactic Emperor.
Jungian extraverted thinking—ET and TJ
Because this formula seems to correspond with the meaning of the world, it becomes a world-law which must be achieved or applied at all times and places, both individually and collectively.
Simpler Translation of Psychological Type by Carl Jung
Naboo will eventually grow somewhat ashamed of being the homeland of Palpatine.
Enneagram Type Eight
NeedEights need to be their own authority, and seek independence to be a master and commander of their own lives. They have the need to feel confident, self-reliant and in charge of their emotions. Eights don’t need to be liked, but they do have a strong need to be respected.
Katherine Chernick Fauvre
After her reign as a teenager, Padmé will also become a senator of the republic. Her name, Padmé Amidala Naberrie, sounds reminiscent of the phrase in French ‘Ami de la [planet Naboo]’ meaning ‘friends of the [planet Naboo]’… Padmé and Palpatine are two political and polar enemies.
Padmé stands for republic and democracy while Palpatine stands for imperialism and autocracy.

How did the conflict arise between the trade federation and naboo population?
Naboo becomes a major player in the galactic plasma energy trade market. Plasma is energy akin to fuel and electricity combined as it can power most anything. From lights on the beautiful robe of the Queen to inter-galactic starships. Some plasma veins are discovered below the streets of the Theed, the capital city. Senator Palpatine is then commissioned to build a great plasma mining and refining facility in the heart of the Theed.
Enneagram Type Three
VirtueA true taskmaster, Threes’ virtue lies in their veracity and sense of industry.
Katherine Chernick Fauvre
Naboo is traditionally averse to outer-space trading so it contracts with the powerful Trade Federation to buy the plasma at a fixed price. The Federation exploits Naboo’s lack of space trading experience and sells Naboo increasingly short, as time goes on, on the Galactic market.
Naboo protests and wishes to break free from the contract. The King senses an impending conflict so he establishes new military forces. However Naboo sees this new military presence as a provocation, the new military forces become unpopular and Palpatine who opposes it begins to rise in popularity.
Enneagram Type Three
NeedThrees need to be the best at whatever they do. They love the sound of applause and the accolades that are given for a job well done.
Virtue
Their efficiency makes them an overachiever who can accomplish a great deal. Often they are the model of success, and they have a natural ability to motivate and charm others.
Katherine Chernick Fauvre
Princess Padme Naberrie promises to end the conflict without violence and opens negotiations. The powerful Trade Federation is then outraged at a tax levied by the Galactic Republic on plasma sales. Taking Amidala as her Name of State Padmé Amidala becomes Queen. The Trade Federation imposes a military blockage and it turns out that Palpatine, under his alter ego Darth Sidious, had manipulated the Trade Federation.
Enneagram Type Eight
ViceThe Eight’s vice is excess and going to extremes. [..] They can be too much, too intense, and unwilling to self-limit. This can lead to escalating conflict due to an over reliance on their own truth and self-defined justice. Under stress they can become myopic, believing their truth as ‘The Truth’.
Katherine Chernick Fauvre
Palpatine secretly reveals himself as Darth Sidious, his true self and alter ego. The image of a middle-aged man is his façade.
Enneagram Type Three
AvoidThrees can become anxious and fearful that their carefully crafted image of the successful, on the go, efficient ‘doer’ might be unmasked.
Katherine Chernick Fauvre
When Padmé attempts to liberate Naboo from military oppression Darth Sidious (Palpatine) seeks to capture her by sending his apprentice Darth Maul. The military invasion failed and Jedi Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi kills Darth Maul in a lightsaber duel.
Palpatine rises up to the senate and exploits the crisis to get elected as the new Chancellor of the Republic.
Enneagram Type Three
AttentionHyper focused on their audience, they adapt to the expectations of others. They want to be the very image of success wherever they are and with whatever they do.
Spiritual Path
The Three’s spiritual journey is to reclaim their sense of honesty and restore their hope.

Why is Darth Sidious a 358 ENTP – The Solution master and what are some of his solutions?
In an epic conversation with Anakin, Palpatine reveals himself as Darth Sidious—his Sith alias. He informs Anakin that he has been studying both sides of the force. He tells Anakin he knows that Anakin has been having prophetic visions of Padmé dying in childbirth and proposes to teach him Plagueis’ secrets (the way of the dark side) to save her. He tells Anakin he will learn to save Padmé’s life, and this is one of his solution. He also rises in power after presenting new solutions as a politician.

ENTPs at work
ENTPs enjoy jobs that provide new challenges every day. They tend to avoid careers with lots of structure or routine, focusing instead on fast-paced and high-energy fields that are likely to provide some degree of autonomy. They can then create their own schedules and find their own ways of doing things.

Enneagram Type Five
NeedFearing intrusion, Fives need to keep themselves hidden and camouflaged. However intellectual they may be, Fives often feel vulnerable and exposed like an animal without fur.
Vice
They should also be aware of their tendency to withdraw into their ivory tower of ideas. Others may start to see them as arrogant and unfeeling. Being dispassionate and ‘cool as a cucumber’ is good in an emergency but hard on relationships.

How does Palpatine use Inferior Introverted Sensing as an On/Off switch?
“Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise?“
“No.“
“I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend.“
Chancellor Palpatine and Anakin Skywalker
On one hand, he values the past and family ties since Rey is a Palpatine and Anakin’s father might even be Sheev Palpatine and on the other hand when Palpatine reveals his true identity as Darth Sidious to Anakin as he explains that he did not follow the rules: He is not what he pretends to be, but a Sith lord who studied both sides of the force—the Jedi way and the dark side.
Jungian introverted sensing—IS and SJ
It is concerned with dispositions of the archetypal experiences of objects.
Simpler Translation of Psychological Type by Carl Jung
Inferior Introverted Sensing
As an inferior function, introverted sensing originally manifests as a resistance to tradition or conformity of any sort.
As Si matures, the user will find themselves steadily more able to determine when traditional methods are useful in accomplishing their goals and when they are not, and will begin to feel comfortable integrating tried-and-true methods into their experiences as they see fit.
The inferior-Si monologue (prior to maturation): “Out with the old, in with the new! F*ck the system! The man can’t keep me down!
