The Reflector

Reflectors are the rarest type (~1%) — luminous mirrors of their community, with all nine centres open. They sample and reflect the energy around them.

Wait a lunar cycle (~28 days)
Signature
Surprise & delight
Not-self
Disappointment

You're a mirror. With every centre open, you take in and amplify the people and places around you. This makes you wise, fair and deeply perceptive — and it means where you are and who you're with matters enormously.

Your strategy is to wait a full lunar cycle. For big decisions, give it about 28 days, talking it through with trusted people as you go. Your clarity isn't instant — it ripens over the moon's cycle. Rushing rarely serves you.

Your not-self theme is disappointment. Disappointment grows when you're in the wrong environment or surrounded by the wrong people, absorbing energy that isn't healthy for you.

How to thrive: be intensely selective about your environment and your circle, give big choices time, and let yourself be surprised and delighted by life. Your signature is wonder.
