Learn about Crosses

Crosses are ideas driven and fear of Loss dominant.

They are good employees for work that requires caring for people, animals, or the planet, social services, politics, advocating for causes, or making a difference in the world.

They are not as good in positions where appearances, fashion, being flexible with your views, being open-minded to anyone’s views, or being patient with people who do wrong is needed.
