How it shows up
People with this line can anticipate shifts in a group's mood and plan how to meet the next stage. Their best audience is their own circle: friends and acquaintances who trust their sense of things. Through that network their words gain weight and stir others out of hibernation. The warmer the relationships, the easier it is for them to get across that the time for action has come.
At its best
The ability to rouse the stagnant and prepare a community for change. They sense in good time, and put into words, the need for real contact and an end to excessive caution.
The shadow
A voice crying in the wilderness. The person rightly senses that the time for change has come, but their calls for connection find no response and fall on deaf ears.
Exaltation and detriment
In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Earth, and ▼ (detriment) when by Mercury. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.
