Aspects
Bacchus Semi-Sextile Mercury
The Bacchus theme and your thinking mind sit a step apart, so a quiet looseness can enter how you think and speak, a resource you grow into a mind freed from over-control, playful and uninhibited. You can let your words run free. Let your mind loosen and play without scattering into distraction.
Lean in — Let your mind loosen and play without scattering.
Watch for — Let a loosened mind drift into pure distraction.

- George, Asteroid Goddesses (1986)Reads Bacchus through the Dionysian theme, wine, ecstasy, release, and the loosening of the ordinary self, as a point of ecstatic abandon and the urge to let go.
- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of Dionysian release and the thinking mind as an inner dynamic of the loosened, playful voice.
- Tierney, Dynamics of Aspect Analysis (1983)Reads the semi-sextile as a minor growth aspect, a subtle nudge toward integrating two neighboring principles.
