6.9 Iridium
‘The eternal crown prince’
Iridium is not very well known as a remedy. Sherr has done a proving recently.
Signature
The names is derived from the word ‘iris’, meaning rainbow, because of its colourful range of salts. It was discovered in 1804 and its chemical name is Ir.
It is a hard metal, difficult to mould. It is used to make fountain pens and injection needles. It is also used in standard weights and measures and the international standard meter is made out of an alloy of Platinum and iridium.
Iridium is quite commonly found in the remains of meteorites and supernova’s. The great meteor crash in Mexico that happened 65 million years ago and that was the most probable cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs left large deposits of iridium in the earth (Volkskrant 21-1-95).

Essence: taking the final step to become a true leader.
Taking the final step to become a leader
They are now in a position where they have almost reached the top in their particular organisation. Everything is ready for its final conclusion. They only have to take one more step to become leader, director, or king. They have almost succeeded in turning their ideas into the finished product, it is really going to happen any moment now, they will be a leader at last. They feel as if it is just about to happen, all they have to do is make the final move.
Extending their responsibility
They feel very responsible for their minors and for society as a whole. Their aims are high and they work hard to achieve them. They can be real workaholics. They always feel they have to extend their business, to go into it in more depth, to do more. They haven’t nearly finished what they set out to do and they do their best to get the business to the very top. Their potential hasn’t been fully exploited yet. And that which remains outside their reach is seen as a sign that they have failed to be a super power.
On the verge of being arrogant
They tend to be quite single minded, they are always preoccupied with what is yet to be done. The people around are usually several steps behind and blame them for being unrealistic or irresponsible. They may seem irresponsible but this is only because they see everything from the point of unexplored possibilities. But they do feel very responsible, much more than others might suspect. In fact they find it hard to relax with all the responsibilities they have taken on. That is why they may appear to be dictatorial.
Trial run for power
They would like to give their project a trial run, to see if it really works. They know the organisation is sound in principle, but their may be some details that need to be seen to. They don’t like to shout about their leadership yet, because they may need to make one or two alterations to the plan. They often appear hurried, because they are nearly there. They can hardly wait to take the final step.
Robbed of their power at the last minute
But they also live in fear that something will go wrong at the last moment and that the post of manager will be given to someone else. In spite of the fact that the official approval of their leadership is no more than a mere formality, they keep thinking that they might not make it. They may be afraid that their organisation will be taken over or that their plans will be taken over by a stronger power who will take all the credit for it.
Blunder while directing
They may also be afraid of committing the most awful blunder which will wipe out all the years of hard work. The final step could be the one where they make a terrible mistake. They get so tense about it that they could well make that awful mistake at the last moment.
