Comparison
Palladium + Niobium
Niob.: Great ambitions to be the best, to be
special and different. Their desire for praise and compliments also very big.
In this respect they are very like Palladium.
Pall-met.: will openly ask for praise and gracefully receives the
compliments that are bestowed on him or her. Niobium find it hard to receive
compliments. Deep inside they feel that they deserve it,
but they have nothing to show for it yet. Or they may feel that they
don't deserve any praise because they really feel worthless. In both cases
they'll brush off a compliment with a nervous little laugh.
In spite of this they still feel rather special and are keen to keep up
a certain status. They often look down on the sort life that ordinary people
tend to live, it is all a bit too vulgar to their taste.
They are likely to come from a well to do family where they got the
message to behave in an honourable fashion. They have to be dignified, as a
woman, as an artist etc. But on the other hand they
also got the message not to have any pretences. So they are torn between
having to be honourable and dignified, and on the other hand not to have any
pretences about what they can do and what
they might achieve. If we look at mythology we see that the chief
complaint of the gods was that Niobe ascribed her
luck to her own efforts -to her own ego- instead of thanking and honouring the
gods. The gods punish her for her pride by killing all her sons. When
she still carries on singing her own praises they also kill all her daughters.
Back to present day life: these people might also enjoy
watching others who are not afraid to be the centre of attention.
