Aspects
Pluto Semi-Square Pomona
A low-grade friction runs between the Pomona theme and your depth, so the instinct to prune back hard can tip into over-pruning, an obsessive control of growth that cuts so deep the orchard goes barren, or hoards its fruit behind walls. The irritation asks you to cut for life, not control. Prune deeply in service of richer growth rather than out of a need to control it.
Lean in — Prune deeply for richer growth, not to control it to death.
Watch for — Over-prune from a need for control until nothing bears.

- Hand, Horoscope Symbols (1981)Treats the meeting of cultivation and depth as an inner dynamic of pruning hard for richer rebirth.
- Tierney, Dynamics of Aspect Analysis (1983)Reads the semi-square as low-grade hard tension that seeks release through small adjustments.
