Aspects
Mars Quincunx Nessus
Your charged relationship to force and its misuse never quite fits your everyday drive, so you keep adjusting between protecting and dominating. The gift is a drive that can defend against abuse. The shadow is wielding force the way it was used on you. Keep tuning your power toward protection, not domination.
Lean in — Use your force to protect, not to dominate.
Watch for — Wield force the way it was used on you.
