Aspects
Nessus Quincunx Sun
Your role as the one who ends a cycle of harm never quite fits the self you present, so you keep adjusting between confronting the pattern and simply being. The gift is a self that refuses to pass the harm on. The shadow is an identity built around the wound or the fight. Keep tuning your reckoning with power against the rest of who you are.
Lean in — End the cycle without it becoming your whole identity.
Watch for — Build your identity around the wound or the fight.
