Positions
Pallas in Cancer
With Pallas in Cancer, your creative intelligence works through feeling and memory: you read the emotional currents in a room, sense what people need, and strategize in service of safety and care. The gift is an intuitive grasp of how to protect and nurture, and a memory for patterns of feeling. The shadow is a mind clouded by mood or defensiveness, strategizing from old hurt. The growth is letting intuition inform a clear plan rather than replace it. At your best you find the move that keeps everyone safe.
Lean in — Let your read on feeling inform a clear, deliberate plan.
Watch for — Strategize from yesterday's hurt instead of today's facts.
