Profile 6/2: Role Model-Hermit

From birth until death, a 6/2 sees more than others do. The Sixth Line gives a person objectivity and the ability to see things as if from above, that is, to take in the whole picture. This gives a 6/2 remarkable wisdom even at a young age. Others see a 6/2 as a person with high ideals, standards, and goals.

The unconscious Second Line draws the attention of people who see its real gifts. People see a 6/2 as a master in many fields, a source of universal wisdom, and a prophet in their own land

Even without being aware of it, a 6/2 attracts attention and serves as a model and an example. And they can set either a good or a bad example, depending on whether they live correctly.

A person with Profile 6/2 is always looking for a balance between the earthly and the spiritual. From early childhood, they suffer because the world does not live up to their high and noble ideas. They feel like a stranger on this planet and keep asking themselves: What am I doing HERE? How do I get HOME?

The life cycle of any Sixth Line has 3 stages:

Up to age 30

This person goes through the Third Line period of trial and error. A craving for the new, throwing caution to the wind, disappointments in love: this is how a person gains the experience they need. This period is necessary so that they can go through every possible experience and... be disappointed.

From 30 to 52

Around 30, this person “goes up on the roof.” The further a person has strayed from their path and from correctness, the stronger the shock (or series of shocks) that comes with this “going up.” Having passed through this difficult transition, the 6/2 becomes less an active participant in processes and more an observer of them. It is also a period of making sense of the experience gathered over the first 30 years.

From 52 on

This period is called “coming down from the roof.” Once the experience of the first 30 years has been understood and worked through, the person comes down from the height of their objectivity and returns to people to show their best qualities. It is only after 50 that a person with Profile 6/2 becomes a true Role Model. That is, life is only just beginning!

But that is on the level of the Personality.

On the level of the Body, that is, unconsciously, this person seeks solitude.

At a gathering or a party, they will choose a spot from which they can watch everything going on while staying on the sidelines. For example, they will sit on a windowsill or at a separate table or, as a last resort, at the end of the shared table (the seat from which it will be easiest to slip away when the Second Line feels too much pressure and attention).

It is the Second Line Body that does not seek interaction with other people, and it will unconsciously build barriers and boundaries. People, and especially children, with a Second Line in the Body are strongly advised to have a room of their own, a space where they can be alone with themselves.

The body of this person wants to know nothing about itself or the world around it. Literally, they go through life with their eyes closed. The Second Line is simply closed to any knowledge. And the problems of the Second Line in the Body can only be seen from outside. That is why Profiles 5/2 and 6/2 are advised to make a point of getting medical checkups, sometimes even when they don't feel like it.

In society, the Second Line body does not want to lead; it wants only one thing: to be left alone. And yet it is in the Second Line that others recognize something natural and wonderful.

Add to this the objectivity of the Sixth Line in the Personality, and you get a very influential person indeed. In the sense that such a person really does inspire trust. This is a genetically noble Profile, but only if the person lives the life of their True Self. In their Not-Self expression, a person with Profile 6/2 can become a Role Model of Hypocrisy. They will give advice and make moral judgments without living by the standards they set.

But in the True Self, living out their nature, a person with Profile 6/2 can show a very beautiful life process: one that includes the inevitable search for the perfect and the beautiful.
