This transit can feel like a noisy intersection inside you. The old plan still has merit, yet something essential keeps leaning toward a new horizon. You may question timelines, roles, even identities you worked hard to build. The tension is not failure; it’s growth rubbing against its own edges, a reminder that purpose isn’t a straight road but a series of honest turns. Expect both a pang of grief for what’s been invested and a surge of aliveness for what’s emerging.
Working consciously with this square means letting the two voices speak. One carries experience, structure, and loyalty; the other carries curiosity, risk, and renewal. When you let them meet, a wiser path forms: not a dramatic swerve, but a considered adjustment that keeps faith with your values. Small, decisive changes count. The goal isn’t to choose once and forever, but to keep aligning, so your life makes room for the person you’re becoming.

Then move in small, honest increments. Choose one experiment that aligns with your deeper values and let feedback guide the next step. Keep listening beneath the noise for the steady click of what feels true. The path gathers under your feet as you walk it.
The friction I feel is my direction changing shape.
