Aspects
Mars Quincunx Pluto
How you ordinarily push and your deeper drive for power do not naturally line up, so you keep adjusting between everyday effort and all-out intensity. It can feel like the steady worker and the relentless force are never the same. The work is treating that adjustment as a skill, a hard-won sense of when to push lightly and when to go all in. At your best you become unusually good at applying exactly the force a thing requires.
Lean in — Learn when to push lightly and when to go all in.
Watch for — Keep trading steady effort for all-out force or vice versa.
