Genteel / Gentility
Spirit: Genteel is the ultimate lady. Quietly powerful, she is poised, dignified, and well mannered. She may speak softly, but Genteels words are chosen very mindfully and purposefully—her ethics and morals are as strong as her loving heart. Genteel feels a great sense of devotion to her family and heritage. She is a natural healer. She loves to foster ideas and to develop and implement the most elegant and sensible way of doing things. She prefers to know as much as she possibly can about what interests her. Genteel is an excellent hostess and loves to give and receive gifts. When she is out of sync with her own inner voice, Genteel may become overly accommodating and silent or confined by her own rules. But it is the combination of sensitivity and dignified poise that makes for her resolute character. Genteels form of feminine power can range from honoring traditions to enterprising, women-based solutions to freedom of sexual expression.
Look & Feel: Undeniably feminine, sophisticated, sensual, calm, gentle. Sacred objects, tranquil sanctuaries, and places of devotion. Proper manners and traditional celebrations. Often appreciates flowing, graceful materials. Loves lingerie.
