Introduction
They want to shine, to be in the centre of attention. They feel great and confident. They have the feeling that the centre of the family or the group of friends is their rightful place.
They have a strong ego but on the other hand they have the idea that there is something wrong with them, that there is a bad side. They try to do good anyway but even then they have the feeling of a shadow inside, although usually deeply suppressed. Due to that they need much confirmation of others, of friends and family. They like to hear that they are good people but it is difficult for them to believe it when people tell them they are good or even fantastic.
