Aspects
Demeter Semi-Sextile Moon
The Demeter theme and your emotional instincts sit a step apart, so the maternal instinct and the grief-and-reunion cycle can quietly run through your inner life, a resource you grow into a heart that nourishes deeply and weathers its own seasons of loss and return. You feel the cycle of giving and grieving. Let your maternal feeling move through its seasons without freezing in winter.
Lean in — Let your maternal feeling move through its seasons of loss and return.
Watch for — Withdraw all warmth in grief, blighting your own inner world.
