In full

An extremely reliable person, able to take on responsibilities beyond what is required. Has a complete, realistic and practical respect for concrete facts. When they see that something needs doing, they stop, think — and if they decide to take it on, they take it on.

Inner reactions are often vivid and intense, rarely shown on the face. Can seem extremely calm even in emergencies. Only up close do you see the personal perspective behind the mask.

Perfectionist, diligent, able to work hard. Patient with details. Their perseverance steadies everything and everyone around them. Doesn’t rush into situations; once in, doesn’t give up.

Risk: distrusting their own imagination and intuition, setting important information aside because they don’t trust it.
