Thursday November 6th :: Venus enters Scorpio @ 2:40 PM Pacific
Thursday November 30th :: Venus enters Sagittarius @ 12:14 PM Pacific
Shifting from Libra to Scorpio means moving from grace to intensity. As Venus enters the fixed waters of Scorpio her gaze lands upon what she finds personally important. This is exacerbated by a square to Pluto on Friday November 7th. Just a four week journey into this sign gets off to an indulgent and passionate bang.
Note that Venus is making this move in an apex position within a yod. The ‘finger of god’ aspect is quick moving with Uranus ((in Gemini until Friday, then Taurus)) and Neptune ((recently back into Pisces)). Venus is in her grace and high ability at the end of Libra and helping to make some very necessary adjustments during the 48 hours period around the ingress into Scorpio((Wednesday – Friday)).
The full moon is still waning as Venus steps in to maintain some semblance of order. Some gentle and necessary work is to be done on the emotional body on Thursday morning and early afternoon. Could be a good time for a cry. In a way, the work may be in vain, as Mars in Sagittarius and Uranus finishing in Gemini are opening more tabs than can be maintained.
***close your tabs before moving on to a new task. Put things away, clear clutter. If you can’t complete something, put it out of sight as you move to something else… thank me later.
We have a time to focus on what helps us and what lights us up. Others are well intentioned but are drawn towards personal awareness and self care. The times can be overwhelming as we discover new parts of ourselves. We are on a journey of finding out why we do things. This is as much of an exploration as it is an investigation. Keep your wits about you. Mass movements lose cohesion as the each individual may wonder ‘What the hell am I doing here?… I don’t belong here’ ((Shoutout to Radiohead)).
An unconscious effect of this transit may be that people just throw their negative energy at each other. Unwilling to face what we’ve created, we look to smear others. Live it consciously, beware of this tendency, you’ll have to clean it up later anyway.
Relationships can go through a hiccup on Friday. Latent energies come to the surface. If you know that you are in a contentious situation, find an outlet that isn’t your partner. Do some journaling. Get to know the why of your reaction. If you are already familiar with it, look at how you can shift the dynamic without involvement from an outside source. If you are already stretched thin, then you will have to confront the annoying or frustrating dynamic. Again, some reflection before speaking can turn a confrontation into a conversation.
Relationships experience a passionate rebirth. If we can manage to communicate and bring out feelings to the surface, there are powerful rewards. Relational growth happens when two people come together. Each individual can do all the self development work they want. If they don’t come together and engage one another, the connection doesn’t grow. The deeper the presence with one another, the more the connection will grow. As we work through tough times together, as we process challenging emotions, as we take responsibility for our role, the connection grows through the test.
An honest conversation changes everything
I am not advocating for taking care of anyone or dismissing yourself. Quite the opposite. Find your deepest awareness of the dynamics, reflect and speak from that place. Make it about how it effects you. Be patient with the response as there is a lot of pressure created when we speak latent truths. Listen without being reactive, bit that forked tongue.
Venus square Pluto speaks to some good love making. Submission and domination can only really occur in a safe environment. So if you want to have good sex, work through your resentments and held energies, to be free to receive and connect.
Don’t take it too far. Venus in Scorpio and also squaring Pluto can have us pushing the limits. Jealousy, possessiveness and controlling tendencies come to the surface. This is a nastier side of the human condition. When these feelings get out of control, we dislike our own situation and resent that of someone else’s. When we have strong direction, the winds barely effect us.
We are not in charge of others.
They do what they want.
If they don’t ask for help, we probably shouldn’t intervene.
There is playfulness available but we have to get out of our heads and our feelings. Mars is there for us, to go express energy and shift our reality. Dancing, shaking, walking, hiking, climbing, singing, laughing, creating or playing a game.
Notice where you might feel paranoid or overly concerned. Recognize what part is under your control… if any of it. Make a plan to shift the things you can, when you have energy for it. Give the rest back to God. We can free ourselves through this process.
People need to be free.
Detoxification. The body, mind and emotions will want to eliminate the toxic and unnecessary. Without regular rest periods, our bodies start to accumulate waste energies. Whatever we ‘overdo’ leads to a buildup of one thing or a lack of another. Wall Street traders need some quiet time. Parents need sometime without their kids. Maybe your diet needs a break or an addition.
…Caffeine as an example…
Caffeine blocks us from recognizing the message from adenosine. The body produces more adenosine to remind us when we are tired. Over weeks, months and years adenosine builds up. This is why stopping caffeine can feel like hell. We are feeling all the tired from the previous years.
Where there is excess and stagnation, we may feel a detox. This is because Venus is coming from a deepened perspective. Less interested in the immediate satisfaction and more concerned with that deeply satisfying feeling of consuming and being consumed by the moment. Elimination is an important part of the cycle of consumption. If anything, elimination and detoxification allow us to engage the following experiences more fully.
Richness, truth and investment. The moment is powerful, full of vim and vigor. We want to get the most out of it that we can. It’s far too easy to be distracted. Remind yourself of what you value. Say NO. Say YES. Whatever you say, MEAN IT.
Enjoy the fruit of this time, be aware of your desire for power and influence, and don’t forget to have fun.
