Aspects
Mercury Decile Nessus
You have a small, natural knack for naming what others will not say, a quiet creative facility for the clear word that names a harm and begins to dissolve its hold. The honest phrasing comes when it is needed. Trust this gift for truth-telling that frees.
Lean in — Name the hard truth that others keep avoiding.
Watch for — Let an unspoken harm keep its power through silence.
