Trait 11 < Trait 10 > Trait 58

Life Work Theme of: Love

Purpose fulfilled through Transformation

This Trait is part of three strengths - The Strength of Higher Principles connected to Trait 20 in Communication connected to the throat; The Strength Conviction connected to Trait 34 in the Energy Resources; The Strength of Perfected Form connected to Trait 57 in the Survival Instinct. Trait 10 is part of the Individual (Centering) Circuit with the keynote of empowerment with the Strength of Conviction 34-10. Trait 10 is also a part of the Integration Channel with the keynote of self-empowerment.

Trait 10 is the most complex trait in Identity, and one of the four traits of the Life Work Theme of the Vessel of Love. This is the Trait of the love of oneself. The six potential behaviors or roles of the self (listed below) are guided by the intuition of Trait 57, empowered by the Sacral response of Trait 34, and manifested or expressed through Trait 20. Within the framework of these roles, humanity is now exploring what it means to live as a 9-centered, self-aware form with its potential to awaken, and to experience genuine self-love. With our Decision-Making Strategy in place, Trait 10 empowers our potential to surrender to living authentically as ourselves. As we come to know, accept, and love what makes us unique, we empower others to love themselves as well. True awakening through surrender is not a commitment to becoming something; it is a commitment to being ourselves. Trait 10's strong emphasis on loving self-acceptance will deeply impact how humanity moves through the 21st century. Those who carry this trait are the ones who recognize that awakening is not possible without self-acceptance. As we embrace the honor and pleasure of exploring life in a self-aware form, we empower our potential to live as our true selves, awake in the now moment.

The successful sidestepping of behavioral requirements through isolation.

Elevation: Mercury exalted, where mental functions enrich aloneness. Independent behaviour through isolation.
