Your relationships are gentle and numerous; you’re the friend who organizes with taste, who remembers birthdays and who can defuse a tension with just the right word.
Your key to growth is asserting your own needs. Venus pushes you to please and Mercury to adapt, and you risk forgetting yourself in the effort to make everyone else’s life more pleasant. Learn to ask, to receive, to say what doesn’t suit you with the same delicacy you bring to satisfying others.
