Aspects
Asbolus Semi-Square Mars
A low-grade friction runs between your drive and the Asbolus theme, so foreseeing danger can freeze you into paralysis, or send you fighting phantoms that never arrive. The irritation asks you to act on real warnings, not every imagined one. Move on what you foresee without being paralyzed by dread.
Lean in — Act on real warnings without freezing at every imagined one.
Watch for — Fight phantoms, or freeze, at every foreseen danger.
