Aspects
Ceres Quincunx Chiron
Your instinct to nurture never quite fits an old wound around being unmothered or uncared for, so you keep adjusting between giving care and protecting the hurt. The gift is a hard-won tenderness. The shadow is the wounded nurturer, giving what you never received and feeling empty. Keep recalibrating between caring for others and healing your own need.
Lean in — Care for others while healing your own old need.
Watch for — Give endlessly what you never received, and stay empty.
