How it shows up
People with this line often don't realise how strongly their way of living affects those around them. They may sleep long or little, work in waves, change their schedule, and it all looks organic. Others see this as a gift and call them into their own projects. When they act naturally and modestly, their conduct sets lasting standards that others lean on for a long time.
At its best
Modesty and right action that give rise to enduring standards. They accept their unusual nature as normal, and that is exactly what gives them a quiet power to influence.
The shadow
Contrivance: deliberately using one's extremes to influence others. What was natural becomes calculated, even if from the outside the effect may look much the same.
Exaltation and detriment
In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Sun, and ▼ (detriment) when by Earth. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.

The second line accepts its extreme nature as right. It doesn't try to fit into the common rhythm, and that naturalness is exactly what makes it influential: around it, others notice that one can live at one's own pace.
