Part of Eros
Part of Eros Square Neptune
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. Neptune presses your longings against illusion, escapism, or self-deception, so what you want can dissolve into fantasy or attach to someone who cannot be had until you face what is real. The friction asks you to dream without drowning. Ground your longing in truth before it leads you astray.
