Aspects
Saturn Semi-Square Vesta
A low-grade friction runs between your dedication and a stern, self-denying streak, so devotion can curdle into grim asceticism that punishes the body and starves the heart. The irritation asks you to let the sacred include joy. Practice your devotion without making it a penance.
Lean in — Let your devotion include warmth, not only rigor.
Watch for — Turn dedication into joyless, punishing self-denial.
