Aspects
Cybele Semi-Sextile Moon
The Cybele theme and your emotional instincts sit a step apart, so a quiet, primal urge to shelter and defend can rise in your feelings, a resource you grow into a fierce protective heart that guards its own. Your instinct is to mother and shield. Let your protective feeling hold others close without smothering them.
Lean in — Let your protective feeling hold others without smothering.
Watch for — Let the urge to shelter become a smothering grip.

- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of elemental nurture and emotional instinct as an inner dynamic of the fierce protective heart.
