Aspects
Mercury Sextile Sappho
There is a workable opening between your mind and your lyric, art-loving nature, one that rewards initiative. When you put your thinking toward expressing yourself beautifully, mind and artistry cooperate, making you genuinely good at the craft of moving, graceful communication. This is a door you walk through, not a current that carries you. But take the step of actually shaping your words with care, writing the poem or finding the true and beautiful phrase, and you find thought and artistry reinforce each other, so that artful, heartfelt expression becomes a real strength rather than a private wish.
Lean in — Shape your words with care; write the poem, find the true phrase.
Watch for — Leave a gift for beautiful expression unpracticed.
