Positions
Pholus in Aries
Pholus in Aries releases through bold, sudden action. The small cause that sets off the large effect tends to be an impulsive move, a fast word, a single decisive act, and you can be the spark that lights a long-laid fire. The gift is the nerve to make the move that breaks a stuck situation open; the work is to respect how far a quick act can travel and lift the lid on purpose rather than by impulse.
Lean in — Make the decisive move on purpose, knowing how far it travels.
Watch for — Set off more than you meant to with a heedless impulse.
