How it shows up
Expectations of practical solutions in hard times are projected onto people with this line, and they really do know how to fit into new conditions. They may seem superficial or too accommodating, yet beneath that surface they keep their essence intact. Such adaptability helps them and those around them get through transitional periods. The other pole is sudden rebellion: an urge to reject all conformity abruptly and assert oneself against everyone.
At its best
An instinct for adapting in times of change while keeping inner integrity. The person can be flexible on the surface and firm underneath, which is why they come through any transformation.
The shadow
Abrupt, at times aggressive rejection of all conformity. Instead of adapting, the person rebels at the worst possible moment and makes the transition harder for themselves and others.
Exaltation and detriment
In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Moon, and ▼ (detriment) when by Mars. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.
