Line 60.2 “Decisiveness”

The ability to accept limits while they are needed and to seize an opportunity decisively the moment it appears. The second line does this naturally, as if it senses when the door has already opened. Patience and speed don't contradict each other here.

How it shows up

People with this line can live within a frame for a long time without complaint because they understand why it is there for now. When circumstances shift, though, they respond quickly and without needless hesitation. Others notice this and often call on them right when things are changing. As a second line, they may not be aware of their talent for waiting and then acting at the right time. The key is to notice when a limit is already gone rather than living by old rules out of inertia.

At its best

Understanding the nature of limits, with the flexibility to seize a new opportunity in time. The person waits without despair and acts without delay. Their timing is often uncannily good.

The shadow

Adaptation that has turned into habit. The limits vanished long ago, yet the person still behaves as if they were there and keeps themselves in a cage with no door.

Exaltation and detriment

In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Saturn, and ▼ (detriment) when by Earth. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.
