Earth

Conscientiousness

You are the rock. Reliable, structured, and patient. Others trust you as their foundation.

Earth is the foundation. It is the force that brings structure to chaos, that makes plans and executes them, that keeps its word. Earth energy is patient and persistent — it builds slowly but immovably. People with a lot of Earth in their profile are the rocks upon which teams can build.

Shadow Side

An excess of Earth can lead to rigidity and resistance to change. Paralyzing perfectionism, need for control, and difficulty with spontaneity. The challenge is to provide structure without becoming rigid.
