Aspects
Mars Semi-Square Pomona
A low-grade friction runs between your drive and the Pomona theme, so the call to cultivate can collide with impatient drive, tempting you to force what should be allowed to grow or to rip out what is merely slow. The irritation asks you to work with the season. Prune and tend with patience rather than forcing the fruit before its time.
Lean in — Prune and tend with patience rather than forcing the fruit.
Watch for — Rip out or force what only patient tending would ripen.

- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of cultivation and drive as an inner dynamic of effort that prunes rather than forces.
- Tierney, Dynamics of Aspect Analysis (1983)Reads the semi-square as low-grade hard tension that seeks release through small adjustments.
