Aspects
Arethusa Quincunx Midheaven
With Arethusa quincunx your Midheaven, your visible role and your need to keep a pure private source rarely line up cleanly. You keep adjusting the job to protect the spring, or hiding the spring to keep the job. Name the misfit so you can redesign the role rather than silently splitting yourself.
Lean in — Keep adjusting your work to protect your private source.
Watch for — Do not endlessly contort to make a wrong role fit.
