Part of Eros
Part of Eros Square Mars
The Part of Eros A tense aspect between planets about 90 degrees apart that creates friction and a push to act. Squares are challenging but are often what drives real growth. Mars presses your longings against impatience, anger, or raw impulse, so what you want can be chased recklessly or sabotaged by heat until you learn to aim your drive. The friction asks you to want fiercely but act with care. Temper your urgency so your passion builds instead of burns.
