How it shows up
The sixth line's path runs through three phases: first active experience and mistakes, then a period of watching from a distance, and finally a maturity in which the person becomes a point of reference. For the Gate of the Behaviour of the Self, this means trying out different ways of behaving and arriving at the authentic one. They don't preach; they simply live as they think right, and that is enough to make others reflect on their own conduct.
At its best
A constant example that brings the complacent back to the basics of integrity. The power of expressing oneself through deeds that persuade better than any speech.
The shadow
Hypocrisy along the lines of “do as I say, not as I do”. Behaviour shrinks to fine words and lectures that the person's own actions simply do not live up to.
Exaltation and detriment
In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Pluto, and ▼ (detriment) when by Saturn. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.
