Venus in Taurus

-

 


On May 28th, 2022, Venus departed from the fiery temple of Mars and entered her comforting home of Taurus where she stays until June 22, 2022.

The sign of Taurus is the earthy home of Venus and a place of the Moon’s exaltation. Venus and Moon, both feminine planets, are symbolizing topics connected to women, relationships, children, fertility, comfort, joy, nourishment, sensual pleasures, and bodily matters.

Venus and Moon are also planets of a nocturnal sect, representing things we tend to do when the sun goes down, when our work is done for a day. When we go back home to rest and relax, spend time with our loved ones, go out for a drink with friends or maybe enjoy the crackling of the fire on our own. They are with us at night when we stargaze, make love, or while we're asleep, traveling through our dreamscapes.


The nature of these planets naturally tends toward our personal, private sphere of our life, towards what’s close and dear to our heart, what nourishes our roots in our everyday comings and goings.


Feminine, yin principle, innate to both of these planets, is characterized by slowness. It represents things that need time to be developed, things that are more concerned with the process rather than the end result, things that need our care and loving attention.


Moon is also related to fortune while Venus is a bringer of good fortune. This could be seen as what we are receiving, what is coming to us rather than something we actively pursue, the areas of life that are out of our control, what comes and goes, gifts that are being offered to us to be enjoyed at the moment.


The sign of Taurus

Dewdrop shimmering in the morning light

The sweet scent of roses

 Lush gardens of Eden


The embodiment of living life to its fullest

Keep hope alive, keep dreaming.

Feeling is Believing - Saturn ♓ & Jupiter ♋ & Water Trines

-
Image
  Saturn and Neptune are back in Pisces, and Jupiter is in Cancer. These planets are engaged in a powerful, long-lasting trine, and together they provide an anchor to a powerful grand water trine in the sky, with faster moving planets coming through the sign of Scorpio.  The water element is feminine in nature. Feminine energy is about emotional sensitivity, boundlessness, flow, and receptivity.  Energetically, we might feel like circumstances are constantly shifting around us. Nothing is solid, things are dissolving and taking shape at the same time, like when we´re walking through a thick fog and we see things in our surroundings taking shape in front of us and dissapearing back into the invisible realm. Coming from October into November, the reality feels like an impressionistic painting, like a huge canvas filled with visible, broken brushstrokes of pure unmixed colors. The resulting image is more about capturing a fleeting sensory experience, the uniqueness of the cu...

Fighting for Life - Mars Opposite Pluto

-
Image
  On April 27, 2025, we are facing the third and final opposition of Mars and Pluto at 3° of Leo and Aquarius.  When Mars and Pluto are engaged in a harsh aspect of opposition, it is like a face-off where two power players are trying to gain control. Imagine two boxers before their showdown in the ring. They're stating their position by hurling insults and threatening each other.  ​ There is no room for pause. There is no room to catch a breath. You have to pay attention at all times otherwise your opponent takes advantage of the situation. Opposition is a push-pull relationship.  Opposition is about tension that can't be reconciled.  Opposition of Mars and Pluto brings urgency to our actions. When Mars and Pluto are involved in a tense aspect, it often feels like a survival mode – DO or DIE. Imagine unbearable pressure. It feels crushing like it's going to break you. At that moment, your instinct either kicks in and you’re going to fight for your life or you re...

All Shades of Weird - Uranus in Gemini

Image
  On July 7, 2025, Uranus entered Gemini, the airy domicile of Mercury. Uranus, the archetype that represents the principle of freedom and breakthrough, experimentation, and originality is now coupled with his favorite buddy. Mercury/Hermes, the ruler of Gemini, and Uranus are like mischievous buddies that crash every party. Uninvited, they show up whenever they feel like it. They have fun playing pranks on everybody to get a reaction and to stir up the trouble.    This energizing combo screams „Change for the sake of change“. Uranus in Gemini represents a double dose of speed and instability. This is an energy of „anything goes“. There are no limits and no restraints - everything is a possibility. Uranus and the sign of Gemini share a lightning-quick mind, originality, and inventiveness but at the same time, we might be dealing with overstimulation and nervous restlessness.  Our mind comes to the forefront and becomes a source of excitement. We get fascinated by tho...
