*+-I find it hard to write about astrology these days and “these days” has lasted a couple years now. Once upon a time I blogged all the time, but no longer. I try to transition to other mediums to talk shop, but those don’t stick either. In short, I’m at a […]
Venus in Leo

*+-What you need is a life that gives you life. This is what I was thinking while taking the subway for the first time in three and half years, and I left a voice message for my friend wondering why I ever went to Manhattan when there was so much […]
*+-Do you have a Venus Saturn aspect in your chart? A hard aspect? Just posted this on my Facebook: Protective in the right way, protective in the wrong way. Saturn = limitation, safety, protection. Thinking of Venus Saturn hard aspects in the natal or by transit – Protective in the […]
*+-This long Venus in Leo transit was supposed to change your life. Did it? I think that’s the whole blog post, right there. Sometimes I ask those kinds of questions on my Facebook Timeline and I will get people who say no. Nothing happened. Nothing ever happens. Is it true […]
*+-Truth is this: Saturn went retrograde, back into Scorpio, and my blogging went kaput. (Have you noticed anything about your own chart and life due to this retro?) Scorpio is my Third House. Write? Blog? Huh? I used to have an inspiration every five seconds. Instead, in my “off” moments […]
*+-I wrote on my Facebook that the Venus blogs were going to continue today — and that I may add some Mars in because although I love rose and gardenia, my favorite smell is sweat and determination. I had just finished working out (with one of my spirit guides Jillian Michaels) […]
*+-Let’s examine another part of Venus today: Venus as seductress. But I’m thinking of it this way: I’m thinking of the Law of Attraction. I’m thinking of magick. I’m thinking of Venus working on acquiring what she wants. I’m thinking less of the way we think of seduction, the 1:1 […]
*+-You don’t owe anyone “pretty” ever — BUT if you are doing a Venus soul retrieval, if you are exploring your own Venus nature (INSIDE AND OUT) pondering pretty can be part of it. Doesn’t have to be. But can be part of it and can be fun. In part […]
*+-I’ve got so many thoughts in my head today about VENUS. I’m not sure where to start. Deeeeeep breath. * I asked a question on my Facebook Timeline: Did folks feel more “masculine” or more “feminine” or balanced? I do know that I am “out of balance” and I had […]
*+-On fire this morning on my Facebook Timeline. Posting and posting stray Venus in Leo thoughts. I was EXPRESSING MYSELF (as Madonna would say, fellow Venus in Leo lady) 🙂 As I type this, Venus enters Leo in about an hour. Also today: Mars in Gemini sextile Jupiter in Leo: […]
*+-The fact that a well-aspected Venus makes it much easier for you to attract. Self-aware Venusians will admit this. They attract what they want and what they don’t want. They attract across the board. That is the gift of the well-aspected Venus. Being able to attract (to draw to you, […]
*+-Someone saved my life tonight. That Elton John song. I felt it about a week ago when a friend gave me an impromptu psychic reading. She was drawing cards around a job interview I’d had and instead of seeing job related stuff, “my stuff” came up in the reading and […]
*+-Catch up here and here with my recent Venus blog posts: * I thought this list was interesting from one of my Tracy Marks books: Venus Retrograde in the natal: develops own unique social and aesthetic values undemonstrative, difficulty communicating affection narcissistic fearful of intimacy and love seeking the perfect […]
*+-I just blogged about Venus entering Leo and this summer’s Venus in Leo retrograde — and I want now to blog a little about what Venus means to me. At this time. And then we’ll get more “academic” in future blog posts. Venus to me… is inseparable from conversations about […]
*+-As I type this, Venus is in late Cancer, the protective swooning mama bear. I don’t have Venus in Cancer but Sun Mercury Mars in the sign. Yes I swoon with love at my furry animal “children.” *But here’s the news y’all: Details and then I’ll summarize: Venus enters LEO June […]
*+-The cure for loneliness is to seek. And to keep on seeking until you find. Even if the search itself makes you feel more lonely. Please don’t fear this. I went for a walk this evening, alone, and stopped off at a popular neighborhood restaurant for dinner. I noticed another […]
*+-God this transit. I have it in my natal too so I’m getting that sickening echo. My Venus is in Leo and Leo needs to be APPRECIATED (as my teacher used to say). Admired (my roommate used to say). DESIRED and desired in a big way. Venus square Saturn = […]
*+-Once you get married (to another person, to yourself, to God) you must begin to understand that your husband (or wife) fits no preconceived notion. No fantasy. Stop trying to put them in a box. That pretty jewel blue and green box of your most treasured so-called wants, dreams, and […]
*+-On the first day of class, I wrote about wanting to go deep with Venus and make discoveries that excite me — partly from rereading the “cookbooks” and rereading the deep astrology writers so that my own thoughts have more substance. Caroline Casey writes about honoring Venus and it got […]
*+-I am a jealous woman but I have known others far more jealous than me, men and women. How do I know this? They have told me, provided examples. Their jealousy makes ME, mine, seem like a firefly rather than a strike of lightening or a house on fire. Thinking […]
*+-Venus is in Leo now, from June 27 to July 22nd. I call this the “me and only me” placement. Venus in Leo needs to be THE ONLY ONE, the only love. She has an ego and is prideful. Venus in Leo is ROYALTY, the Queen. No doubt other Venuses […]
*+-My plan was to give you a weekend forecast and then I took a look at Monday and what I’m feeling is… this weekend could go either way for you. You could feel more alive than ever — or just frustrated. Up against it. On Saturday, we’re energized, antagonized with […]
*+-How do you feel love? For me it feels quiet and warming. It’s a very inside feeling. Fills me up. How to explain it? It spreads like warm liquid to the belly. This is my Venus in Leo in the 12th House. Private fire. But you may never know it’s […]
*+-When I was in astrology school and my teacher noticed my Venus in Leo, he would talk about Leo’s need to be “appreciated.” My roommate (Leo South Node) would tell me no — Leo needs to be ADMIRED. She’s one of those picky Virgo Moons. The right word matters. My […]
