Aspects
Mars Septile Pales
There is a faint, fated, almost compulsive thread between your drive and the Pales theme, a guardian's urge to defend what is in your keeping that grips you with a force you did not choose. The protective drive feels destined. Honor the gift without letting the compulsion to guard turn into controlling the very ones you shield.
Lean in — Honor your guardian's drive without controlling your own.
Watch for — Let a fated urge to guard become control of the flock.
