Square

A 90-degree angle between planets — the aspect of productive friction.

Squares create pressure between signs of clashing elements — the workable kind of friction, like a whetstone. Nothing about a square day is gentle, but the output is real if you lean in rather than around.

Rule of thumb: a square asks you to do the uncomfortable rep you have been skipping.
