Aspects
Mercury Semi-Sextile Nessus
The Nessus theme and your thinking mind sit a step apart, so a quiet capacity to name harm honestly can grow between them, a resource you develop into the words that break a silence. Naming the pattern begins to loosen it. Let your words tell the truth that ends the cover-up.
Lean in — Let your words name the harm that silence protected.
Watch for — Keep silent about a pattern that needs to be named.
