This tenth sector of the Wheel contains position eight of the Enneagram. The archetypal symbol or myth for the drive/impulse inherent to this sector of the Wheel, and represented by the eighth point of the Enneagram, is Saturn. The drive arises out of circumstances created by others and constitutes a response to it. It means to accept responsibility and to respond and organize. The complementary impulse is the fourth sector of the Wheel, Soul Feeling, symbolized by the Moon, imagination, the urge to dream, to visualize something new which has never been before, rather than to see something which already is and respond to it.

In life this is the age span of from 63 to 70 years. This time of life is primarily concerned with "incarnating your ideas in a new profession or retirement which embodies the spiritual vocation you have found." At this stage of life awareness of the full extent and meaning of the person's spiritual task now becomes apparent. The person takes a public stand to embody these ideas in society.

In geography this sector of the Wheel corresponds to the one twelfth of the Earth from 50 to 20 degrees longitude West. This includes Iceland and Brazil. In the north the "Eddas" are formulated in Iceland. In Brazil the Candomble, Umbanda, and Quimbanda create a religious syncretism where the Catholic religion is an integrated part. The ideal for cultures grown in this sector of the world is acceptance and intimacy (Soul Feeling).
