Aspects

Mars Square Vesta

What you desire and what you have consecrated yourself to keep colliding. The single-pointed focus you ask of yourself can frustrate your drives, or a surge of want pulls you off the discipline, and anger flares at whichever you sacrifice. The strain often shows up around sexuality and self-denial, an uneasy back-and-forth between indulgence and abstinence, neither sitting right. This square is not looking for a compromise, it is looking for action: for you to keep aiming your drive at the focus without crushing the appetite out of yourself, and to keep your discipline without letting it curdle into resentment. Worked at, it forges a will both passionate and controlled.

Lean inAim your drive at the focus without crushing the appetite out.

Watch forLurch between indulgence and abstinence, angry at both.
