In the home, you would seek to maintain order and system through using proper disciplinary measures. You could excel in accomplishments of a technical nature where concentration and attention to detail are important. You feel a sense of security in positions of responsibility where progress is made through systematic, step-by-step procedures.

Home and children are important to you, and you desire a settled environment. There is a tendency to assume more than your share of duties, and others could impose on your good nature, thus over-burdening you with responsibilities that could cause you to worry.
