Icarus in the 12th House
Icarus in your 12th house brings daring to the inner, hidden, and spiritual life. You may take bold risks in the realm of the unseen, chase transcendence, or fly toward the sublime in private. The gift is the courage to reach beyond the visible; the work is to keep a thread to reality so the hidden flight does not become escape or self-undoing.
Lean in — Reach for the sublime while keeping a thread to reality.
Watch for — Let the hidden flight toward escape become self-undoing.
