Aspects
Ceres Semi-Square Neptune
A low-grade friction runs between your urge to nourish and your longing to merge, so caretaking can blur into rescue, martyrdom, and the slow disappearance of your own edges. The irritation asks for boundaries inside your compassion. Care without dissolving into the one you care for.
Lean in — Keep clear edges while caring with an open heart.
Watch for — Pour care out until there is no you left to give.
