This post reframes the classical humors as metabolic systems rather than personality traits, distinguishing how the body processes energy from how the psyche orients toward meaning through mythic god-types. Using an energy-economics frame, it treats symptoms and burnout as consequences of chronic misalignment between constitution, environment, and symbolic mediation rather than moral failure or weakness. Individuation here is precise alignment, not optimization: a life can be efficient and still be wrong or costly and still be right, but sustained misallocation always exacts a psychic price.
