Original Advice
“DONT: Don't demand warmth; request it clearly instead.”
Trade Ultimatums For Clear Requests
Your standards don't summon warmth; they freeze it. You micromanage tenderness like a spreadsheet and then resent the silence. People don't melt under audits. They recoil. The chill you diagnose in others is the draft from your own gatekeeping. If you want heat, light the pilot: use your mouth. Name the contact you want. Ask for it without tests, traps, or hints.
Clarity isn't cold; it's merciful. Demands trigger performance, not devotion. Requests create a doorway that someone can walk through willingly. Your ruler is Mercury; precision is your native tongue. Use it to draw a clean map to your heart: frequency, touch, words, timing. Replace critique with coordinates. Replace sighs with sentences. Warmth grows when consent is invited, not coerced. Say the need once, plainly, and let it land.
Cosmic Context
Mercury rules you; precision is your magic, not punishment. Earth steadiness turns to frost when you police affection—aim it toward clear asks instead.
