Aspects
Nessus Quincunx Saturn
Your sense of the long karmic consequence of harm never quite fits the limits and authorities you work within, so you keep adjusting between ending the cycle and the rules. The gift is the discipline to make the harm stop with you. The shadow is grim, joyless carrying of the burden. Keep tuning between ending the pattern and living your life.
Lean in — End the inherited pattern without grim self-burdening.
Watch for — Carry the burden joylessly forever.
