Born at this point in Pisces season
This person was born in the opening days of Pisces, when the season has only just started to soften. Other people's moods reach them before they have had time to name their own. Many days they give more than the moment asks for, then wonder why they feel drained. Their wish to help is sincere, but their need for a quiet room afterward matters just as much. Jupiter's generosity and Saturn's caution pull at the same choices.
