VENUSIAN VENTURES
Venus in Virgo-Part 2
Venus will make several aspects while moving through Virgo through the month of September—a square to Mars; a trine to Uranus; an opposition to Neptune; and a conjunction to a retrograded Mercury and then a trine to Pluto mere hours later.
Remember—while Venus moves through Virgo it’s much more beneficial to attract yourself to what is not working, and to the actual reality of something—the good, the bad, and the really broken ugly of something, and thereby to what is in need of repair within that reality… it is in the flow, now, these working nuts and bolts of self-sufficiency, to be drawn to that which is in need of attention, repair, improvement, or discipline…
Allow me to briefly delineate these aspects in overview—
Venus Square Mars in Gemini—at 14*24’ on September 16th
Hypersensitivity is possible now… and absolutely, the need for further refinement.
The new and improved cultivation toward your sense of personal formality and etiquette, and the actual enforcement of manners, in action, will be highlighted and illuminated today… the moon will connect to Mars in Gemini in conjunction today, and so there may be complicated misunderstandings, or a furthered need to clarify.
Communicating thoroughly, and perhaps even extensively, could be either necessary—or advantageous. It will also be important to see things from the perspective of other’s vantage points and reasonings.
Seeking out advice, guidance, or counsel could behoove your efforts now.
Try to avoid gossip, as this is typically where fictions are portrayed as facts.
Venus Trine Uranus in Taurus—at 18*38’ on September 19th
A connection to Uranus typically regards toward upset, surprise, or outright chaos—though this connection is a trine, and both planets are within the elements of earth… and so whatever upsets which may occur now would be those that need to occur.
Otherwise, this aspect may speak to a more elevated option within your new disciplined devotion—to approach whatever it is you’re working to improve or repair from a different angle or perspective.
However, this degree does associate itself with elimination, competition and competitiveness… and so this may describe a sense of competitiveness with yourself, or as ‘a race against time itself, or a process of elimination to determine the best of a kind…’ and so, at its best, in a most highest vibration, you may experience this transit through ‘an ability to hone any personal skill or talent to perfection as needed…’ or you ‘may find yourself scrambling to keep up with it all.’
Today is a day to maintain, to make sure that all working parts are operating smoothly and sufficiently… ‘coordination and timing are important—replacements may be necessary…’ particularly toward fresh opportunities, or any evolution toward changing and improving or repairing—being flexible to making adjustments or changing circumstances is a huge detail today.
It’s also a really auspicious day to begin planning for something.
Venus Opposite Neptune in Pisces—at 23*49’ on September 24th
Codependence could become a blurry matter today… all matters could become blurry today, in all honesty.
Often, codependency is a projection of one’s own insecurities toward one’s best interests—and this may be precisely what is occurring now, though, through the fog of a Venus/Neptune opposition, the actual inner longing being felt may become acutely confused.
Today, thereby, is a day to question your motives.
Though, simultaneously, try not to project your own issues onto anyone or anything…
Today is a day to take on your own issues, instead of playing the victim/martyr card.
Today is a day to question your own behavior—particularly if you’re feeling clingy; particularly if you feel as though you need to prove something; particularly if you feel compelled toward someone, or something, as in an obsessive or addictive manner.
However, through the higher vibrations of this aspect—today’s energies could bespeak genuine kindness and tenderness… also—today could offer you a renewed, or brand new, perspective upon something. On these notes, if this is how you experience these energies—it is essential to remain open, and lean in to it… be ‘receptive, and sincere’… to plunge yourself even more deeply into whatever it is you’ve devoted yourself toward since the beginning of the month.
Venus Conjunct Mercury Rx in Virgo—at 26*48’ on September 26th
Venus and Mercury are no longer enjoying the ease of mutual reception—and haven’t been since September 23rd, when Mercury moved back into Virgo—and now meet in conjunction through a degree that describes the functional need to face something with ‘elegant composure…’
Today is a Monday—at least on this half of the world—and it is a good Monday to prepare to be on time and present for, ready for anything and flexible toward any necessary adjustments or need to pivot…
Or—contrarily—today is a day to take off… to socialize with friends, enjoy leisures and pampering—remember that Virgo is the sign of extreme self-care… to take in a sauna or a soak with a friend or three, to sit in the sun and think, or to lounge in a hammock with a book.
Today may be one of the only times I suggest to you that a little bit of ‘innocent’ gossip could feel strangely therapeutic—in fact, it could uncover or reveal something larger, something more important… please do not misunderstand—what I suggest here is in the realm of decency, nothing vicious or mean-spirited. The emphasis here is on ‘culture, dignity, formality, custom, and propriety—it is a time for careful deliberation, thoughtful reflection, and the practical projection of future needs…’
Facts are essential today. Actual facts. Particularly if you’re needing to make an important or qualified decision.
Avoid anything that could put you in a position of entitlement or special privilege, or conflicts of interest… in other words, to be quite adroitly bourgeois—all dealings of exchange in any regard should be handled with the maturity and formality of a legitimate adult of good moral standing… particularly so, as mere hours later, Venus will exact a trine with Pluto—and so power dynamics between any exchanges will need to be above-board and genuinely well-intended.
Should you choose to be shady with your exchanges—Mercury will eventually catch back up to Venus on November 21st at 7*10’ Sagittarius, a degree that requires a firm understanding and foundations to build from… should something not measure out, any advancements at that time would fail to evolve beyond that point unless the ‘shade’ was brought to an honest light and confronted appropriately.
