Original Advice
“DO: Name the feeling before fixing anything.”
Name It Before You Mend
Your reflex is repair. You smooth surfaces, draft apologies, recalibrate plans before the feeling even shows its face. Harmony is your costume for discomfort. You call it complicated when it’s simple: you don’t want to feel it. Freeze the scene. Stare at the sting. Name the temperature: anger, jealousy, grief, boredom, relief. Until you say the word, you will chase problems that don’t exist.
Names sort the room. A labeled feeling stops the spiral and sets the scale to true zero. Anger asks for a boundary, not a bandage. Sadness asks for rest, not a performance. Envy asks for direction, not sabotage. When the word is wrong, the cure is wrong. Call the feeling first, and your choices stop being noise and start being design.
Cosmic Context
You carry the Scales and Venus’s urge to soothe. Naming the feeling returns the balance point before your diplomacy takes over.
