Aspects
Sedna Conjunction Venus
Your way of loving and the Sedna principle are fused, so love is shadowed by a deep, old wound of betrayal or abandonment, and intimacy can reopen the cold. You may love slowly and guardedly, half expecting to be left, or be drawn to those who reenact the original betrayal. The gift is a capacity for profound, hard-won love and deep loyalty once trust is truly earned. The shadow is keeping love at a frozen distance, sabotaging closeness to avoid the feared abandonment, or staying in betrayal because the cold feels familiar. Let love slowly thaw the old wound rather than confirm it, and let yourself be loved past the fear of being left.
Lean in — Let love slowly thaw the old wound rather than confirm it.
Watch for — Keep love at a frozen distance, or stay where betrayal feels familiar.
