Aspects
Ascendant Sesquiquadrate Persephone
Persephone agitates your rising point, so there is a low simmering pressure to drop the surface act and let the deeper self move. It can come out as irritability or a sense of being only half present until you act on it. Give the agitation a real outlet, a project or practice that honors descent, and the edge settles.
Lean in — Channel the restlessness into honest deep work.
Watch for — Do not let the simmer leak out as irritability at others.

- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of descent and renewal and the Ascendant, the self and persona, as a specific working relationship.
- Tierney, Dynamics of Aspect Analysis (1983)Reads the sesquiquadrate as a minor hard aspect of agitation seeking release through action.
