Cool synchronicity, to learn about them and find this T-Square.yungang_grottoJust found out my friend and I have Sophrosyne conjunct Moon double whammy in synastry Totally makes sense.
Dike, or Justice, was touted as antidote to Hybris, or in some tellings, as a result of Hyrbis-- the necessity of Justice was as a result of hubris...
