Alone this placement is only moderately lucky; in company it prospers. The good marriages, the business partner who supplied what was missing, the collaboration that made both parties larger than they were separately, these are the characteristic events of such a life. The belief underneath is that things should be equitable, and it is held sincerely enough to be acted on at personal cost. They will divide a windfall more evenly than anyone required them to, and think nothing of having done so.
The teaching concerns proportion. They notice when a room has become unbalanced, when one voice is doing all the talking, when an arrangement has quietly turned unfair, and they say so in a manner that rarely causes offence. Social generosity is constant: the introduction, the invitation, the well-timed word on someone's behalf. Much of their influence is exercised in this way and is invisible to anyone counting formal titles, which is generally how they prefer it.
The cost is difficulty in refusing. Agreements are entered into for the sake of goodwill, obligations accumulate that never made sense individually, and the calendar fills with commitments to people who would not have minded a no. Conflict avoided early becomes conflict enlarged later. From inside it feels like being reasonable and pleasant to deal with. From outside it can look like a person whose good nature has been quietly spent by everyone around them, one small favour at a time.
