Lynx and Level 2: Compatibility and Challenges
In many ways, Lynx and a Level 2 are a match made in heaven. A Level 2 is the perfect combination of raw primal strength and compassion and would be a good role model for any children Lynx may adopt or foster. These are the qualities that Lynx craves in a “real” man. A Level 2s thirst for challenging himself out in the world or street is easily tamed through traveling and building life memories with Lynx, which is exactly what she loves to do when the career hat comes off. In fact, Lynx will be able to teach her Level 2 a thing or two about proving his manliness in ways that doesn’t cause harm to himself or their relationship. However, a Level 2 must be committed to the relationship (and any children Lynx may adopt or foster) by making it more important than proving his manliness to his more dominant buddies out in the streets.
Lynx
Because Lynx’s governing houses are Love and Hope, when she acquires an emotional connection to a mate, some principles and codes of conduct are subject to being suspended to optimize the chance of a relationship being successful. Fortunately, her guardian spirit Radiance won’t allow her to suspend core motherly principles or codes of conduct, not even for her man. Although Lynx’s governing houses are Love and Hope, she also receives a decent amount of dark energy from her 5th house of Scorn. Similar amounts of energy received by Lynx from these three houses are what makes her a balanced Mindset.
Lynx is a nurturer first and foremost. In fact, no female Mindset exudes more nurturing and motherly energy than Lynx. She can apply this energy in a number of ways, such as the lives of any children she may adopt or foster, nieces and nephews, family elders, pets, her significant other or even her career. However, Lynx needs to feel a reasonable amount of raw, primal strength resonating from a potential mate to balance out her powerful nurturing energy and create harmony. Only then will she surrender to love.
Those Lynxes who choose not to adopt or foster children must still utilize their powerful nurturing and motherly energy. For many, this translates into the creation of life memories through traveling and spending quality time with family and friends. These types of Lynxes can seem to run nonstop. There are people who will speculate that Lynx must be running from something. Although this isn’t true, they do certainly have a need to stay on the go. What would be helpful for Lynx is having a significant other strongminded enough to get her to slow down and recharge from time to time.
Level 2
Despite his often-rough persona, a Level 2 loves being a family man and father. Even those who struggle with maintaining a respectable career still enjoy being involved in their children’s lives. But with a Level 2 begins a journey into darker principles and codes of conduct that govern the more dominant male Mindsets. As it relates to financially supporting another man’s children, the governing principle amongst these dominant males is that it’s unwise to exhaust sacred finances for children you didn’t create. This is especially true if the dominant male isn’t married to the female. Now of course there are plenty of male Mindsets who completely disagree with this philosophy and have no problem financially supporting children they didn’t help make. But it seems that the more dominant you go, the more this code of conduct is followed.
Most Level 2s will take on the role of stepdad to their woman’s children modestly, unless they’re married. Therefore, throwing footballs, helping out with homework or picking their woman’s kids up from school is not a problem. But most will avoid going broke for children they didn’t conceive, especially if they have children of their own. However, Level 2s who are of the streets are smart enough to realize that going the extra mile playing daddy to their woman’s kids can give them a pass should they be unable to contribute to the household financially, at least for a while. So if a relatively broke Level 2 is going way out of his way for his woman’s kids, it may have less to do with him genuinely caring about them, and more about keeping her roof over his head.
Some Level 2s have a need to gain a deeper connection to the second primal realm of Conquest in ways that can only be satisfied out in the streets. Even some professional Level 2s with good paying jobs can get sucked into this dark, never-ending rite of passage. And while the intent may not be to commit any illegal activities, clashing with the authorities usually goes with the territory. Often aiding these Level 2s on their quest to gain a deeper connection to the realm of Conquest are more dominant friends (Level 3s & 4s) who already enjoy a pure connection to the realm and all the concentrated, dark energy it feeds them. While there’s nothing wrong with having a guide, problems start to happen when the guidance begins taking a Level 2s focus away from his family life. For some Level 2s, proving themselves to their more dominant buddies can become more important than their family life. This doesn’t always happen but when it does it can turn even the most promising relationship journey into a yard sale in the blink of an eye.
Lynx and Level 2
A Level 2 emits more than enough raw, primal manliness to satisfy most female Mindsets. Yet, unlike some of the more dominant male Mindsets, his manliness isn’t so potent that people are scared at the mere sight of him. For the most part, it’s tucked away unless a situation necessitates conjuring it. For Lynx, a man who knows when to defend her honor and when it’s not necessary is a true blessing. A Level 2 also has more than enough backbone to suggest that his Lynx slows down a bit to enjoy the fruit of her labor. Knowing that she can slow down and enjoy it with her Level 2 makes doing so more appealing.
Lynx is very supportive of her man and his goals. If he’s struggling to achieve them, she will do what she can to help him get there. However, her man must show effort and progress and his goals must be achievable for Lynx to offer her support. This is the type of woman a struggling Level 2 needs. However, he must not get too comfortable with Lynx! Her decent connection to her 5th house of Scorn along with her guardian spirit, Radiance powers her with enough practical, motherly energy (backbone) to maintain standards for herself and her man that must be met in a timely manner. Unlike some female Mindsets, you can’t simply blow Lynx kisses and expect her to ignore the fact that your goals aren’t being met. She will give you more than enough time to accomplish your goals and will help out where she can. In turn, she expects you to know when it’s time to try something different.
A potential issue that can plague a relationship between Lynx and a Level 2 is his choice of friends. Level 2s are naturally drawn to more dominant male Mindsets because being around them brings out more of their own manliness, which is very important to them. These stronger-minded buddies also have a better grasp of the darker principles and codes of conduct that govern the streets and other dangerous arenas that many Level 2s frequent to prove themselves. But what a Level 2 fails to realize is that the price paid for not having mastery of these street principles and codes of conduct is to be the one sacrificed by those who do should the sugar hit the fan.
Bottom line: when these impressionable Level 2s begin trusting the wrong dominant friends, bad things can and eventually will happen. This is why it’s very important that Lynx finds a Level 2 that is established in some sort of stable career and only associates with like-minded friends. She must also learn what these friends are all about and who of them has the greatest influence over her Level 2. It’s that influential, dominant male who can negatively influence her Level 2 (and their relationship) if he’s allowed to.
As previously touched on, Lynx and a Level 2 embrace the concepts of family and parenthood very powerfully. However, a Level 2 tends to be only moderately passionate about raising someone else’s children, unless he’s broke and needs to do something to pull his weight. Then, he’s Mr. Daddy Daycare. Overall, Lynx and a Level 2 get a good grade in this area of a relationship.
