How it shows up
This line lives in phases. First the person actively tries out different relationships and groups, then watches from a distance, and later becomes an example of how to value one's own people. They can show others what is precious in their traditions and achievements. At the same time a need for variety lives in them: they are drawn to new acquaintances and light connections, and so may drift away from those close to them without valuing what was built.
At its best
Understanding the deeper purpose of community. They value what their people have created and, through that respect, naturally extend friendship to newcomers.
The shadow
A need for variety that pulls them away from their own. They prefer casual acquaintances and neglect what has already been built together with those close to them.
Exaltation and detriment
