What 2 means

Two is the Moon to One's Sun: receptive, intuitive and tuned to everyone else's feelings. It notices what others miss and holds people together. The Pythagoreans called it the Dyad, the first step away from unity and therefore the number of relationship, choice and opposites. Twos are natural partners, mediators and support systems. Their sensitivity is a gift that turns into a wound when they absorb every slight, avoid every conflict or wait for someone else to decide.
