Positions
Psyche in Virgo
With Psyche in Virgo, the soul is most sensitive around imperfection and the fear of not being good enough, so criticism and the sense of falling short cut deep. The growth comes through love and self-acceptance that embrace the flawed and real. The gift is a humble, attentive, devoted soul. The shadow is a self-criticism that wounds the soul from inside. The work is offering yourself the mercy you give others. At your best your soul deepens through being accepted exactly as you are.
Lean in — Offer yourself the mercy and acceptance you give to others.
Watch for — Let the inner critic keep wounding the soul from within.
