Reflectors are the rarest type — about 1% of the population. With no centers defined, they are completely open to the world around them. They take in, amplify, and reflect the energy of everyone and everything. This makes them extraordinarily sensitive to their environment. The right environment is everything for a Reflector. In the wrong place, they wither. In the right place, they become a mirror that shows a community its health. Their decision-making strategy is to wait a full lunar cycle (28 days) for major decisions, allowing the Moon to move through all their gates and give them a complete perspective. This isn't indecision — it's wisdom.
