Squares are challenging but are often what drives real growth. your The point directly opposite the Ascendant, on the western horizon. It describes partnership, others, and what you seek in relationship., so the way you enter partnership grinds against the consequences those partnerships return. You may keep meeting the same difficulty in different people, a loop your own relating recreates. The friction marks the lesson, and changing your part of the dance is what finally untangles the knot.
Lean in — Change your part of the pattern that recurs in relationships
Watch for — Do not assume new partners will break a loop you keep making
