Aspects
Ceres Quincunx Mars
Your instinct to nurture never quite fits your raw drive, so you keep adjusting between tending others and asserting yourself. The gift is a fierce, protective care. The shadow is anger that surfaces when your giving goes unappreciated. Keep tuning care and assertion so you can both provide and stand up for yourself.
Lean in — Provide for others and still assert yourself.
Watch for — Let unappreciated giving curdle into anger.
