I think 'summer' and 'winter' are names chosen for being evocative, catchy, and 'value neutral' - I didn't read whpearson as meaning them to be taken literally.
I'm not so sure about that. Note that the section on winter strategies begins with:
This seems to suggest that whpearson did intend for the names to have meaning.
I tried to clarify a potential ambiguity and ended up making an ambiguous post myself - I should've been more careful :-)
When I read steven0461's post I thought he was asking whpearson if the overall winteriness/summeriness of people literally changed from season to season as time passed, and I replied with that in mind. Although whpearson's post does associate literal climates with the personality clusters he suggests, I didn't think he was meaning to imply that people's personalities undergo a seasonal winter-summer cycle, which is the point I meant to make.
But I think you and Airedale are right that whpearson meant to draw other literal connections between seasons and personality clusters - just not one about seasonal cycles - and I could've been clearer on that.
