Aspects
Pholus Semi-Square Saturn
A low-grade friction runs between your urge to control and the catalytic principle, so what you have rigidly contained can build pressure and break loose at the worst moment. The irritation asks you to ease the lid before it blows. Release the long-held in measured ways, not in a sudden dam-break.
Lean in — Release the long-contained in measured, chosen ways.
Watch for — Clamp down until the long-held bursts uncontrollably.
