Aspects

Moon Square Nessus

Your emotional needs and the Nessus principle keep colliding, so old wounds around power and boundary erupt in your closest feelings, sometimes as lashing out, sometimes as clinging control, sometimes as reopened grief. You may reenact what was done to you, struggle to set emotional limits, or let possessiveness guard what you fear to lose. There is a real risk of the harm repeating in intimate life. This square does not want denial, it wants action: to feel the old hurt directly rather than act it out, to set firm emotional boundaries, and to refuse to wound as you were wounded, until your feelings and the inherited harm stop grinding and the cycle can rest.

Lean inFeel the old hurt directly rather than acting it out on others.

Watch forCling, control, or lash out the way you were once wounded.
