Aspects
Eros Sextile Venus
There is a graceful opening between how you love and your erotic life-force, one that rewards a little initiative. When you let real passion into your affection, love and desire cooperate, lending your relationships both tenderness and genuine heat. It will not happen by itself; the door asks you to take it. But invite desire into a loving bond and tend both deliberately, and you find affection and eros feeding each other, so that loving warmly and wanting passionately come to feel like the same alive thing rather than separate, competing pulls.
Lean in — Invite real desire into a loving bond and tend both.
Watch for — Keep love sweet but tepid when it could also burn.
