They can have a strong protective instinct toward those they love, but the parental role they like to assume can be alternately endearing and exasperating. Others are grateful for their attentions but may also find them draining and restrictive. They can be the nurturing parent who finds it hard to let go when a child wants to spread their wings or the lover who cannot think of a world outside their relationship. They can also feel let down when those they love fall from the lofty pedestal by somehow failing to obey their directions. They should learn to allow others the chance to follow their own hearts and, if need be, make their own mistakes.

It can be enormously painful for them if there is a conflict between commitment to work or family, and they may agonize over maintaining a balance. This is because they find it hard to separate their heart and their lives; but if they learn to give a little less and sometimes put themselves first, they may find that it is possible to be more accommodating.
