Aspects
Neptune Semi-Sextile Sappho
Your romantic, art-loving nature and your oceanic longing sit a step apart, so affection can take on a transcendent, dreamlike quality, a resource you grow into a love and art touched by the sublime. You yearn toward beauty itself. Let your longing deepen your love and art without dissolving you.
Lean in — Let romantic longing deepen your love and art.
Watch for — Wall off the yearning that wants to flow into beauty.
