What the Reflector type says
You feel light and curious about life, and you can tell at a glance whether a group is doing well.
Life feels flat and a little let-down for no clear reason, as if you were living other people's lives for them.
Your rule of thumb: wait a lunar cycle. For an important decision, you give yourself a little over 29 days, one full lap of the Moon, to see the question from every side. The Reflector type in detail.
What the 2/4 profile says
The Quiet Talent With a Good Crowd. You need time alone, doing your own thing with nobody watching. Then someone in your circle says 'you should do this, you're good at it', and a door opens. You're often shy about putting yourself forward, even though the people around you can clearly see what you can do.
This profile gives a right angle cross, a life path that mostly follows your own track. The 2/4 profile in detail.
Where the strategy meets your two lines
You need time alone to know where you stand. During your month of reflection, plan evenings with nobody around, to tell your own view apart from your circle’s.
The people around you weigh a lot on you and act as your mirror. Talk your decision through with several people during the month, then note what stays the same from one talk to the next.
For 7 days, pick your time with nobody around (your line 2). In that area, settle nothing on the same day: write down today’s view and reread it the next day. Each evening, write down which person in your circle moved things forward (your line 4). On Sunday, count the days of surprise and the days of disappointment, and look at where and with whom you were.
This test is not science: you know you are doing it, and that alone changes how you act. It still gives you a firmer answer than a hunch. What we actually know about Human Design.
