Violet at work
Violets often enjoy roles that reward insight: design, strategy, research, writing, invention, problem-solving with no obvious answer. They need autonomy and interesting problems. In teams they supply new angles; they do best alongside people who enjoy turning a concept into a schedule.
Violets show love through attention and conversation: sharing ideas, introducing a partner to something fascinating, giving thoughtful, unusual gifts. They need independence and may forget routine affection. Partners can help by stating needs directly rather than expecting a Violet to read hints.
