Aries: sadness is something you are not accustomed to. Its been clouding your vision and you’re struggling hard to find a bright enough light to lift the fog. You’re searching for that fire within you. You’ve always counted on it to get you through. It’s not gone, it hasn’t abandoned you. It’s just soft enough to guide you through this. Reminding you that it’s ok to feel heart ache and that there is still beauty here. Take this stillness as a blessing. The fog will lift.
Taurus: grounded and tall. You’ve come through hell and back with flowers of peace in your hands. The marks of ash are still on your body but you hold these bright flowers effortlessly. You feel the weight of the past year roll off your back as you look out into endless mountains. You feel as powerful as those high peaks. It’s time to create, its time to be part of the divine.
Gemini: this is for you. You may not see it but you create waves in people. Heaviness may be constant visitor. And I know there’s a strange comfort to it. Trust when you feel it lifted and chase after it with all that you’ve got. You’re going to do great things. Anyone who sees you knows that.
Cancer: god sees your softness. There’s not much to say. You feel with every fiber in your body. I know you’ve grown up scared. I know you hold so much sadness. But I see your softness. I know you only mean well.
Leo: persistence is your greatest gift. I know you’re exhausted by the constant demands of this earth. Your eyes show it with each line. You’re constantly tired. However it’s your strength and will that keeps you moving. You are loved beyond anything you could comprehend. This is worth it. I promise you.
Virgo: vulnerability and truth. Growing up you have learned to stay quite and polite. You’ve learned that emotions cause more harm than good. You’ve gravitated towards anything that offers great logic. However now is the time to leave that behind. It’s done its job. It’s time to sit with your emotions and to listen to your inner truth. Vulnerability will be your greatest strength.
Libra: we are so proud of you. You have covered treacherous waters. Your lungs are sore from coughing up the waters that weighed you down. You can catch your breath and look onward. You now have the power of the ocean within your blood. Carry on and do great things. We’re all counting on you.
Scorpio: let it dissolve. Let it sit on you tongue and truly taste it. Patience and kindness is what you most need. That may not make the most sense at this point because all you’ve been doing lately is waiting. You’ve been searching for answers and searching for kindness. Those have always been with in you. Listen to your divine self. Let go of the fear that has been paralyzing you. Find your breath and step into this new chapter with everything you’ve got. Golden days are ahead.
Sagittarius: these are things you have not experienced. Loneliness feels like a guest who’s over stayed their welcome. I know you’re running from it. I know you’ve always been running. Always been looking for the better thing. This is the universe reminding you to find peace within your self.
Capricorn: lack of stability. This is your greatest fear. You’re so accustomed to these strict guidelines that rule your life. However you’ve been building these with materials that are going to break easily. This is something you turn your head away from. You’re not ready to sit with your old wounds. To be broken is a way of growth. Let it fall.
Aquarius: cutting off your leaves. You feel this will give you a fresh start. However you’re confusing your leaves with your roots leaving you uprooted. You confuse this with joy. Child you have to stop playing hide and seek. It’s time to sit and sort through all that you’ve been avoiding. It’s time to come home.
Pisces: searching for heaven. You keep pricking yourself on rose thrones. I’m not sure why you’re confused with the blood dripping off your fingers. Nothing has been making much sense to you lately. Come lay down and rest. The answers will not show them self to you right now. All you can do is rest. Change is on the horizon. Have faith.
A couple life goals: Become the kindest woman I can be, unconditionally. Learn to cook as well as my grandmama. Find a job that I love to wake up for. Learn to love without limits. Live in light and live in constant grace. Make Sunday breakfasts for the man I love. Climb many mountains. Drink lots of tea. Be happy.
“We are so trained in the thought system of fear and attack that we get to the point where natural thinking - love - feels unnatural and unnatural thinking - fear - feels natural. It takes real discipline and training to unlearn the thought system of fear.”
Venus in
Libra is a princess. She lives a beautiful palace, constantly surrounded by the
most interesting people, and walks around gorgeously dressed in soft laces and
dresses. There are puddles of light resting on the floor, pouring from the high,
silver windows, and flowers waiting at every corner inside vases of glass.
Being in
Libra, Venus becomes an intelligent social being, constantly weighing and
trying to understand how her feelings towards others work. Sitting in front of her great airy mirror, she analyzes her feelings using her consciousness, and
this may reveal some tendency to rationalize her own emotions. However, this
tendency also reveals great objectivity towards the field of relationships,
justice and social life. Being opposite to Venus in Aries, where mostly one’s
own desires and feelings were worthy of conscious attention, Venus in Libra
discovers the charm of other people’s universe in such a way that people with
this placement have a great power to balance life itself. They hold their own
feelings between their hands and analyze them. Then they add other people’s
feelings, other people’s perspectives on the matter, producing a final
masterpiece that transcends with harmony and objectivity in life.
People with
Venus in Libra value other people’s opinions, and this is why they value any
kind of relationship. They enjoy being around others and will try to always
keep someone on their side, even on daily life activities, for they feel more
alive and complete when they can contrast their own opinions and feelings with
those of their company. And this consideration towards relationships and other
people’s opinions is responsible for these people’s need for harmonious alliances.
Any kind of tension is rapidly analyzed and taken care of in a way that both
parts are satisfied with the outcome. However, it’s important to note that
despite the great impact that the other’s opinion might have on the final
decision, the decision itself should not be solely based on someone else’s
desire and should rather be defined by one’s own values and idea of justice.
Naturally,
Venus in Libra people attract to themselves people who are somehow connected to
the arts, for this is when they see their care for beauty and gentleness reflected on the
outside. Libra Venus’ balance also makes itself noticed when dealing with
material affairs, and one’s success or productivity in one’s work is likely to
be greater whenever one’s able to put their diplomatic abilities and good taste
to use. With Venus in Libra there is also great emphasis on themes related to
justice, as people with this placement value themselves best when their rights
are respected or when they are the ones to restore peace and fairness to the
situation at hand.
Finally, when Venus in Libra looks into her mirror, she
sees not only her gracious figure, but also shining fragments of all the people that
have touched her life. This is when she knows she’s looking at her own reflection.
