Aspects
Apollo Semi-Square Mars
A low-grade friction runs between your drive and the Apollo theme, so the pull toward excellence can become a punishing perfectionism, a harshness toward any imperfection in your work or yourself. The irritation asks you to pursue mastery without cruelty. Aim high without flaying yourself for falling short.
Lean in — Aim high without flaying yourself for falling short.
Watch for — Punish yourself and others for any imperfection.
