Aspects
Asbolus Sesquiquadrate Mars
A simmering friction runs between your drive and the instinct that senses danger, prodding you to act, often with an edge. The gift is a readiness that will not let you freeze. The shadow is pre-emptive aggression against imagined threats. Let the prompt ready you rather than make you strike first at shadows.
Lean in — Let the warning ready you, not make you strike first.
Watch for — Strike pre-emptively at imagined threats.
