Well, now you've worked out which is your predominant group, and you may have something of a surprise - many do!

Since you will have something of each group in your personality make-up, it's worth reading all of them; you can then use visualisation, self-hypnosis, or whatever will work for you to strengthen whatever traits you wish to strengthen.

We'll start with a look at the ancient Settlers.

The Ancient Settler

The Settler types were a different kettle of fish altogether. These were peace-loving people who wanted nothing more than to be left to their own devices, to tend their land and rear their families to help them continue their calm existence. They were community-minded, recognising the worth of sharing tasks and keeping harmony within their group, so they developed an understanding of others and a high degree of tolerance to the differing opinions of those who shared their space. They were also adaptable and resourceful, using whatever nature provided them with to survive, and would use aggression only as a last resort, in defence.

It is impossible to hurry the forces of nature, and this fact led to a patient approach to life and living, with an ability to tolerate discomfort in the knowledge that there were better times ahead. They were optimists who enjoyed what was without hankering too much after what might have been.

The modern-day Settler does not have to be a farmer or a carer of livestock though some of them actually are. They can frequently be found in the caring/nurturing professions, or wherever tact and diplomacy or negotiating skills are needed.

Their major Ancestral memories are of adaptability and problem solving, and at a high level they are Government diplomats, leading therapists or doctors, or experts on animal care and husbandry; at the lower levels, they may be care attendants for the elderly or very young, gardeners, or home-builders. Their adaptability can lead to them sometimes seeming weak, but they all have a resilience that can put the other two groups to shame.

Generally speaking, these are the nice people of the World, responsive, communicative, and usually interested in the welfare of others. They are more often than not ready to lend a hand when it is needed, and tend to have a cheerful and optimistic outlook - most of the time, anyway. But they can become quite despondent when things go wrong, a throwback, no doubt, to the days when if the crops failed or the animals died - or were killed or stolen - it heralded hard and unpleasant times ahead. For these people are not 'quitters'; they will stick with a problem or situation until it is either resolved or finished.
