The moral of the story? I believe I handled the sextile transit very well. If I had decided not to share my major secret I believe I would have continued to experience some mental discomfort for the remainder of the transit, then later in life when the square transit would come along the issue would come back to hit me even more strongly, perhaps even causing some kind of breakdown, forcing me in some extremely unpleasant way to reveal what I had kept hidden. Because I decided to take advantage of the opportunity the sextile transit was giving me to confront the issue, I believe when the square transit comes along it will be far easier to handle than it would otherwise have been.
