Introduction
They have a strong need to be stable in even the most wild and emotional situation. They often feel unstable, lacking grounding, which often comes from a youth which was very turbulent and full of aggression. They often feared losing their family or becoming an outcast in society. In those situations they can react with strong emotions and aggression, but they prefer to stay calm and try to calm things down by adapting and pleasing others.
