Aspects
Nessus Semi-Sextile Sun
The Nessus theme of power and its misuse sits just beside your core identity, lending a quiet awareness of how harm passes down and how you might not pass it on, a resource you grow into when you trust it. You carry the chance to break a chain. Let your self-awareness keep your own power clean.
Lean in — Let your awareness keep your own use of power clean.
Watch for — Pretend the patterns of harm have nothing to do with you.
