Aspects
Egeria Decile Moon
You have a natural, almost weightless gift for being the calm presence people settle into when they are frightened or tired. It flows out of you without strain, like water finding low ground. Delight in it, and notice when you have become so soothing that you have stopped registering as a separate person.
Lean in — Be a refuge without dissolving into one.
Watch for — Become only the comfort others need.

- George, Asteroid Goddesses (1986)Reads Egeria by her myth, Roman water nymph and prophetic counselor to King Numa who dissolved into a spring in grief, as a point of wise guidance behind the scenes, nourishing inspiration, and the risk of losing oneself in another.
- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of nourishing presence and the emotional life as an inner dynamic of feeding others until one risks emptying oneself.
- Tierney, Dynamics of Aspect Analysis (1983)Reads the decile as a minor fifth-harmonic aspect of a quiet creative knack or facility.
