She has two children. She is very enthusiastic and open. She works as a teacher in a primary school. She is sympathetic, can be full of care, is often in a hurry and doing everything intensely; 100%. She can be bossy as she knows what she wants. She can even be clairvoyant. She says she is often too open and then grows tired and empty.
She can become hard when others see her as provocative, when she is not seen and recognised. She then feels twisted around, screwed. In primary school she would react when other children were treated unjustly. When the teacher would reprimand her, this would hurt her. She had to be in the right and could not support being punished and not being seen for who she was.
