The Steadfast

Horse

Regulates, steadies, and centers to restore calm and stability.

You cycle between full investment and crash, carrying genuine depth of feeling. You are capable of deep attachment, but you need room to feel like yourself. Constraint registers quickly and you move away from it before you can say why. The work is communicating your need for space in ways others can receive.
