How it shows up
A person with this line often reflects on how things could be different: how to arrange life, a team or relationships so everyone is better off. Others project onto them the hope that they know the answer. Their best argument is their own example: when they live by the values they speak of, the promise becomes convincing. The trap is to keep explaining what was wrong with the old and never show what exactly the new will be. Attention then gets stuck in past confusion.
At its best
The values of a new order embodied in harmonious relationships with people. Through their own example the person shows convincingly that change made sense and was worth it.
The shadow
Trying to justify the struggle by dwelling only on the flaws of the old order. The person gets stuck in past confusion and never shows what a better future should look like.
Exaltation and detriment
In the activation table the line is marked ▲ (exaltation) when it is activated by Venus, and ▼ (detriment) when by Jupiter. Exaltation brings out the line at its best, detriment its shadow.
