Venus Rx Journey

View this post on Instagram

Venus retrograde (Rx) started late last night at 11:45pm PDT in Gemini. She joins Pluto (Rx since April 25th), Saturn (Rx since Sunday). Jupiter will be joining them tomorrow at 7:32am PDT. ⠀ Venus reflects love, beauty, pleasure and sensuality, and governs intimacy and relationships. ⠀ Venus’s Rx journey happens once every 18 months for 40 to 44 days, and for millennia it’s been a time to go inward and honor Venus’s sister, the shadow. Think about the last couple weeks—the pre-Rx shadow time. What have you been obsessed with or passionate about? This may help you discern what you are emotionally resonating with that you need to focus on or recommit to. If you don’t know, look at the House that Venus went Rx in today for a clue. (DM me for a short reading if you need some insight.) Gemini influences may be present: communication, writing, language and the intellect. ⠀ 5/28: Venus Rx will descend as the Evening Star, disappearing from the sky—going below the horizon. This marks the start of the underworld journey initiated by the ancient Sumerian and Babylonian goddesses, Ishtar and Inanna, every year. They would meet their dark sister goddess, be stripped naked and killed. An intense myth! Mark your calendar, and be prepared to meet your dark sister (your shadow) unless she has already shown herself to you. ⠀ 6/3: Venus Rx, will conjunct the Sun, and bring some clarity. The energies around our Work during this time, will begin to shift. If, that is, we are doing the Work. ⠀ 6/9: Venus ascends as the Morning Star, and she brings with her beautiful strength. The time Venus rose above the horizon was an important moment for ancient priestesses and priests. Imagine them waiting for Venus as her bright radiance rose into the sky. What will be your moment of truth? What strengths will you be gathering during this retrograde period? ⠀ 6/24: Venus stations Direct at 11:48pm PDT at 5° Gemini. Remember to celebrate the Work and magic of the past 40 days. ⠀ An empowering 40 days to refocus and remember what it is we are passionate about and recommit to what we love and how we want to show up in the world. ⠀ Have a blessed journey, my friends. ⠀ #venusretrograde #VenusRx
