Aspects
Bacchus Semi-Square Mars
A low-grade friction runs between your drive and the Bacchus theme, so the urge to let go can tip your energy into recklessness, action fueled by excess that runs past every limit. The irritation asks you to free your passion without losing the reins. Act with abandon while keeping enough control to steer.
Lean in — Act with abandon while keeping enough control to steer.
Watch for — Let drink or excess fuel reckless, runaway action.
