Aspects
Chiron Semi-Square Orcus
A low-grade friction runs between the Orcus theme and your wound, so an old betrayal can drive you to over-vow to prove your faithfulness, or to distrust that expects betrayal before it comes. The irritation asks you to tend the wound, not relive it in your vows. Keep faith without bracing for the broken promise.
Lean in — Keep faith without bracing for the broken promise.
Watch for — Over-vow, or expect betrayal, from an old broken trust.
