Analysis
They have the feeling that they have to persevere to be able to provide for them-selves. They are hard and efficient workers. Vithoulkas (during a seminar) described them as efficient secretaries. The Ferrum side sees to it that they can get on with things and keep unwanted interference at bay, whilst the Iodatum side allows them to do a great variety of tasks quickly and efficiently.
Another aspect of the Ferr-i character is that they get irritated if their freedom of movement is hampered. They want to feel free to come and go as they like. This fits in with the image of the unmarried secretary, for whom marriage is the most extreme form of being tied. They like to lead their own life; that way it will be less likely that they clash with a partner, because of their firm and strict behaviour.
A third variation on the general theme is that they are anxious ‘to avoid a beating’. They can’t relax because of a continual feeling that something is threatening them. They usually convert this restlessness into a zest for work and greater productivity.
Essence
the idea that they have to stand firm to be able to provide for themselves.
Mind
they are hard and efficient workers, who can work long hours and won’t give up. A secretarial job suits them very well; they are able to keep unnecessary contact at a distance and carry on with their work.
They dislike being tied, as in marriage. They would rather stay independent, because they love their freedom. Being tied would make them angry because they want to come and go as they please, and they are also afraid that others will interfere with their business. Even other people's sounds can irritate them. This means that they would have to push the other person away again, so it is better to stay single.
