Aspects
Mercury Semi-Square Vesta
A low-grade friction runs between your dedicated mind and the risk of monomania, so concentration can narrow into tunnel vision that misses everything else. The irritation asks you to lift your eyes now and then. Go deep without going blind to the wider view.
Lean in — Go deep on a subject without losing the wider view.
Watch for — Let single-minded focus narrow into tunnel vision.
