Character

Behind this impressive façade, Epimetheus actually hides a great weakness and is far more delicate than he appears. A double morality, near irreproachable in the sense that it depends on the circumstances. Never in real opposition to anyone, for Epimetheus there is always common ground. His intuition is infallible and as he possesses a true sense of business, this assists him in efficiently succeeding in his different enterprises.

Emotivity

Highly emotive, but always in control, Epimetheus goes head on into things and allows his intuition free rein which enables him to extricate himself from delicate situations and adapt to all types of lifestyle. Epimetheus can be influenced but has strong self-confidence. Irritable, susceptible, jumpy, aggressive and an actor at heart, Epimetheus enjoys playing his part and impressing those around him; through the latter he shows a very strong reactivity.

Activity

A strong will characterises Epimetheus, however this can change into obstinacy, even aggressiveness if things don't go as Epimetheus wants them to. This determination, bordering on audacity, is without doubt responsible for a great part of Epimetheus's success. Epimetheus cannot and should not be idle, inactivity is something that is banned from his life or it could develop into complexes. Epimetheus is tenacious, when he acts, it is always with an idea in his mind and in the service of a superior cause that he will defend passionately and that often corresponds with his interests. Naturally prudent, his ability enables him to escape from numerous close shaves, so well that it could be said that Epimetheus has a prodigious vitality and great resistance. This is all on the condition that Epimetheus doesn't cede to his nervousness that can invade and submerge him at times. Epimetheus is very much at ease in the centre of a crowd or meetings, he benefits from contact with others and often needs them to feel fulfilled. Friendship represents an essential value for him and this can quickly become tyrannical at times, particularly with the certitude that everything belongs to him.

Intellect

This is mainly a practical intelligence; Epimetheus is doted with a strong persuasive force and holds strong opinions that he affirms voluntarily and precisely and always with a clearly defined motive. Epimetheus has a lively curiosity and rigorous professional conscience. His imagination is particularly practical and he self-imposes a severe discipline when he wishes to succeed at something.

Affection

Sensitive to flattery, Epimetheus needs to feel loved, needs to be told so too and also shown with declarations and demonstrations of love and tenderness. For Epimetheus the family is sacred, even if everything is permitted outside that.

Sensoriality

Epimetheus's possessiveness appears very early in his relations with others, using his raw charm and seduction on all those around him from a very early age. For him, living is possessing and approval is therefore essential.
