Aspects
Eris Conjunction Moon
Your emotional life and the Eris principle of clarifying discord are fused, so your feelings surface what a family or a relationship has buried, and you cannot rest in a peace that is really avoidance. You feel the excluded emotion, your own and others', and you disturb the comfortable surface until what was denied is faced. The gift is emotional honesty that refuses to let things fester. The shadow is stirring upset for its own sake, an emotional restlessness that cannot leave a calm alone, or feeling chronically left out and reacting from the wound. Let your feelings name what needs facing, while learning which calm is real and worth keeping.
Lean in — Let your feelings name what needs facing, sparing the real calm.
Watch for — Disturb every calm, even the real ones worth keeping.
