Aspects
Arethusa Opposition Descendant
With Arethusa opposing the Ascendant across your Descendant, the part of you that goes underground tends to come up through the people you partner with. They voice the clean source you tuck away, or they pursue it until you slip free. Let partnership be where your hidden spring is gently witnessed.
Lean in — Let a partner draw out the pure self you submerge.
Watch for — Do not vanish on a partner the moment they reach the source.
