Aspects
Lilith (asteroid) Square Sun
Who you want to be and your refusal to be suppressed keep getting in each other's way. The drive to assert yourself can tip into needless defiance, or your fear of being dismissed makes you withdraw just when you most need to be seen, and you resent whichever you chose. There is a real risk of the chip on the shoulder that reads every authority as an attacker, or the cold withdrawal that exiles you from the recognition you crave. This square will not settle for a comfortable middle, it asks for action: to assert your worth without making it a war, until being yourself and refusing to be erased stop fighting.
Lean in — Assert your worth without turning every authority into a foe.
Watch for — Read every slight as an attack, or exile yourself in withdrawal.
