Zodiac Interplay
Polarity: Starlight
Still water, and a very long way down.
You feel the weather in a room before a word is spoken. Where others see events, you see undercurrents - the pause before the answer, the thing said too brightly. It makes you the person everyone tells the truth to, eventually.
Modality and Direction: Monsoon
You arrive with the weather.
Fluid energy carrying southern feeling. You move with the emotional current of a room rather than against it, which is why you can shift an atmosphere that resisted everyone else's effort - you did not push, you flooded.
Elemental Harmony: Bedrock
What everything else is built on.
Earth doubled, with no counterweight. You are the fixed point in other people's changing lives - the one whose word means the same thing in a crisis as it did on an ordinary Tuesday.
