Aspects
Neptune Semi-Square Virginia
A low friction grates between your image of perfect purity and the imperfect world, so you can chase an honor too clean for anyone to keep, including yourself. Disillusion and quiet self-reproach follow. Notice the impossible standard, forgive the gap, and let real integrity replace the spotless dream.
Lean in — Trade flawless purity for honor you can truly keep.
Watch for — Punish yourself for falling short of an impossible ideal.
