Aspects
Chariklo Square Moon
Your emotional needs and the Chariklo gift of holding space keep colliding, so you may keep a soothing composure while your own feelings churn unattended, hold everyone else and have no one hold you, or struggle to let your steady surface crack even when you need to. Comfort and composure get tangled, so the very grace that helps others can wall off your own heart. This square does not want a brittle calm, it wants action: to tend your own feelings as honestly as you tend others', and to let yourself be held rather than always holding, until your heart and your composure stop chafing and the grace becomes real rather than performed.
Lean in — Tend your own feelings as honestly as you tend others'.
Watch for — Keep a soothing surface while your own heart churns unheld.
