Picture of Plumbum phosphoricum
Essence: formal communication.
Diplomatic communication
They want to retain their job and their dignity in order to be liked by their friends and relations. But they are being pushed aside and their power is only a formal one, it is not real. They tend to hide this fact behind a mask of formal communication and diplomatic language, so that noone will see they haven’t got any say in the business anymore.
Pensioned off in order to be able to study
They may be at the end of their career and have younger directors waiting to be promoted to take their place. They probably don’t mind because it will give them a chance to tell the truth for a change, rather than having to hide behind a mask so as not to betray the secrets of the business. At last they will have time to study or to have a good time with their friends.
Formal power to be sympathetic
They may have a job where their task is to be sympathetic to others. But their department doesn’t have any real power anymore, it is merely there as a formality and nobody puts much energy into it.
A diplomat as a friend
They may have friends in diplomatic circles. Those friends tend to be rather formal, even when they are amongst themselves. They are a bit superficial and hide behind their status, they may even become rather blasé. This makes them feel lonely, as if the friendship is forced upon them because of past connections.
Sympathetic and diplomatic
They are very sympathetic, even if they don’t openly show it. They are too diplomatic to make an outward show of their feelings. They often have jobs where it isn’t allowed to show your sympathies. They measure their words carefully. They hate being interrupted, being a diplomat they would never do that themselves.
Failure through open communication
In the final stages there is a terrible feeling of isolation. They have lost their friends because they were too formal. They feel threatened but have no idea what others really think about them. it is as if they can’t make contact with anybody, even their friends are wearing a mask. The get depressed and withdraw into themselves. On the outside you wouldn’t think that anything was wrong, they still look carefully groomed and they pretend everything is fine.
