Aspects
Neptune Quincunx Nessus
Your sensitivity to hidden or denied abuse never quite fits practical reality, so you keep adjusting between surfacing what is covered and staying grounded. The gift is an instinct for the harm under the denial. The shadow is paranoia, or being gaslit into doubting what you see. Keep recalibrating between exposing hidden harm and staying clear.
Lean in — Surface hidden harm while staying clear-eyed.
Watch for — Be gaslit into doubting what you see.
