How it shows up
This is an actor's talent: playing a part, building a story, giving people the feeling that an answer exists. Through their network, they easily find an audience, and their version of events can be inspiring. Trouble starts when they begin to believe the fiction is fact. Sooner or later reality fails to match the story, and the fallout hits their relationships hard.
At its best
An imagination that keeps faith in a purpose alive through uncertain times. They can play a role in a way that inspires and helps others. Their stories give people hope.
The shadow
The danger of mistaking fantasy for fact. Time exposes the gap, and they end up humiliated in front of the people who trusted them. Recovering from that is hard.
Exaltation and detriment
In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Sun, and ▼ (detriment) when by Saturn. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.
