Aspects
Pallas Square Sun
Who you want to be and how you see the smart move keep getting in each other's way. Strategy can talk you out of acting on your own behalf, or your need to assert yourself overrides the wiser plan, and you regret whichever you chose. There is a real risk of overthinking your own life, of analysis that never becomes action, or of stubborn pride that refuses the better idea because it was not yours. This square will not settle into compromise, it asks for action: to keep acting on your own behalf without abandoning your judgment, until decisiveness and wisdom learn to work together.
Lean in — Let your judgment guide action instead of replacing it.
Watch for — Overthink your own life until insight never becomes a move.
