Venus and Pluto: The cosmic couple

paradoxx

heh, I accidenlty posted this in Tarot Readings to begin with, but now its here. I'm going to use the other post for a related tarot reading.

Flighty, femenine, receptive venus is having issues communicating her needs, for some. For others, this is a time of directness (or for that matter, direct indirectness.) Regardless, Venus in Gemini has purpose, here the human conciouness is expaned by the intelectual tangents of Gemini, which is coupled with the sensitive behaviour of Venus.

Pluto currently resides in the philisophical sign of Sagitarius, and the archer has his target firmly in sight. While this is the time to plan things out step by step, it is also the time to prepare for the unexpected as best as possible.

Both Venus and Pluto are in retrograde, as is Neptune in aquarius. No longer restricted to conventional thinking, the planet of dreams takes a backseat to prepare for more convinient times to engage what is being planned now.

Mercury is still in Taurus, but is quickly making headway into Gemini, where its energies are amplified by natural rulership. Summer travel plans will be enjoyable but an underlying sense of insecurity may crop up but not always related to the immediete concerns. A disadvantage of solar, mercury, and venus Gemini. Remember that Mars went through Gemini just shortly ago and is now in Cancer. That was the time when the plans that are going through now are being ignited.

Now mars in Cancer, thats a sight to behold. Mixed with Saturns influence (releasing any hold on Gemini it may have had thanks to Mars pushiness) and in trine to Uranus in Pisces - - -

- - - and Uranus opposing Jupiter Direct in Virgo. Stagnation in financial concernes is breaking up, the flow of water is not only broken the ice but is starting to warm up the waterways as well. And given that its quite cold today (May 30th) in Torrington, Wyoming, some Spring/summer warmth and less wind would be helpful. Grateful for the rain, but its colder than the winter was this year.

Jupiter and Saturns glyphs are reversed of eachother, just as their meanings are. Jupiters expansivness was halted during its retrograde activity throughout the beginning of 2004 clear to April. Saturns restrictivness backed off during its retrograde function through the end of 2003 into march of 2004. We expirecned the last 2003 mercury retrograde and the first one of 2004 (in its entirety) during this time of realignment.

Mars took a breakneck journey through Gemini, and rammed headlong into the Cancer/Gemini Cusp, right where Saturn was waiting. While it has a while to go till it enters Leo, once it does it will conjnct the asteroid Ceres (relating to food, health, safety) and oppose the planet Neptune, symbolic of new innovations.

Venus and Pluto will be in opposition throughout this cosmic tango, and the planet of relations and the planet of transformation will play off each other as the days grow longer. Pluto will serve as the anchor, and venus will bob back and forth in its retrograde path looking for something, but Gemini duality says that the act of looking is probably the whole point.

It looks like a lot of debate and interpersonal activity, nothing will stay secret for long. Pluto in Sagitarius demands that the truth be expressed and admitted.

In tradition of the early 2004 posts i placed about Saturn and Jupiter detailing events for each group of signs: Here we go again!


Fire Signs: Aires, Leo, Sagitarius

Aries is not dealing with much, no major planets reside in the ram or for that matter oppose from Libra. Moving foreward is the rams game, so when the moon enters this sign it feels like a wildfire of passion and stimilus. Leo has been gifted with the astroid Ceres (ruler of health, foods, and safety) demanding that the Leos of the world start cooking for their loved ones, just because it takes a king to make meal thats fit for a king. Oppositions to neptune in Aquarius will stimulate and invigorate passion and devotion. Sagitarius is wrestling with the Pluto Retrograde, and with a string of oppositions in Gemini, this tug of war has only begun. Expect strong philisophical differences and use them to expand your knowledge base.

Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn

Mercury in Taurus required communication to follow the chain of command. Slow and deliberite statements are required to channel and funnel the point across as efficiently and as direct as possible. Make backups of everything, evidece is everything. Virgo is trying to play catch up with the overexpansive activities of Jupiter, which don't stop to allow the Virgos to analyize in their normal time frame. That doesn't stop the virgo from doing the finer things in life though, and through subtle recreation, peace and harmony can be found. Capricorn is dealing with Saturns redirection into directness in teh shelled sign of Cancer. home life is turned upside down, and then frosted with vanilla. Things are sweet for the goat, but not cavity forming, take responsibilty and make sure your points are heard if not your voice.

Air: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius

The Air signs have a summer of activity ahead of them. Gemini's love being the center of attention and yet hate having the spotlight. Moving about is the way that Gemini copes with change, absorbing as much detail as possible so that the larger picture can be assimilated with ease. Venus in retrograde is allowing for certain things to be seen by Geminis and Gemnis only, as if Gemini has a gem in the eye that picks up certain clues. Venus in Gemini will only enhance this ability. Perhaps so Scorpio can figure out the things that Gemini opens up later on. Libra, despite having no planetary energies present, Libras will feel active but also have the gift of having the ability to realign the natural energies through embracing chaos. Its a libran dream come true. Aquarius may or may not be dealing with extreme issues, perhaps of unfairness and inequality. These problems may plauge the background like a faulty stage prop on the theatre stage of life. Serious activities and changes must take place, but self-gratification will only result in everyone losing the battle and the bad guys winning the war. Aquarians have a hard time taking things one step at a time, but are coming up with innovations of neptunian origin.

Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces

Cancers feel like the waters that froze beneath them, or around them for those in the thick of it, are now breaking up and flowing with warmth again. While not the most ideal situation to behold, yours is better than it was. Saturn is coupled with Mars has made you realize where you made your mistakes, and what to do with the answers that have eluded you for so long. Perhaps backtracking is the way to do things, too many things happening around you make the situaiton uncomfortable but staying in your temporary shell won't help. Scorpio's ruler, pluto, is in Sagitarius, and philosiphy and beliefs will color your year to come. No one will dare tell you what to think, scorpio, but don't tell others what the status quo is because you know that if they know you well enough, the status quo don't count as a weapon. Pisces has come to grips with the individuals need, and has expierenced enough individuality to last for quite a while. Ready to come back to the group Pisces, don't forget to tell us your adventures, yours are quite the tale of intrigue.

well, here it is . . .

Before we get started, I would like to call for a round of applaluse to the Asteroids "Farpoint" and "United Nations." Their transits from Taurus to Gemini (Farpoint) and Aries to Taurus (UN) has been an amazing one to see. The effects of these asteroids are quite obvious once explained:

Farpoint would be long-term and expansive planning based on desire and character. Entering Gemini we move past the material phase of this extended foreward planning.

United Nations affects the organization of the United Nations of Earth. Now that Iraq has started into its new nationhood, the United Nations role has moved foreward into the picture.

To boot it off, we also have a Sagitarius Full moon. Traditionally, the three days before and the three days after and the actual day and night ofthe full moon seem to be the busiest. This time, the three days before was when everyone was gettting back from Memorial day.

Deadlines and borderlines seem pushed more than before, independence and group soverignty are blended into one, but mainting their pulp. Suspicion and caution begin to form, but no substance to hold it with.

The Scott Peterson Trial also began in California today. It's the fact that we are finally here, and its a complicated trial. It really does take one full hour to really get through the exact details of that day, with pundits and law anallysts only taking up more time than nessacary. The trial sketches and offical moments were nearly transfixing. Painful evidence and unprepared prosicution made the situation that much more . . .


. . . odd.

But if you read the above links, the theme could almost be predicted, as if too prove it, several energies are moving ahead into the "Lilith" or Dark moon in Gemini.

No, I'm not too sure what that means. But if you go to www.astro.com and generate a free horoscope, extended, you can access the Lilith glyph key. It looks like venus with a moon for the top loop. Several definitions are found as well as severel goddeses.

It sounds chaotic and quite at home in Gemini.

One day and one night until the full moon in Sagitarius. Hope everyone made some backup plans, because tonights energy will be one to harness for access to higher plains of understanding. The intensity of the Scorpio moon has been difficult, but now the firebrand of Sagitarius pushes us ever upward into the starry sky.

understand now!

pluto, neptune, uranus, venus rx

Feeling like something of importance has hit a brickwall?
Feeling like something out of the ordinary is happening?
Feeling like something needs to be unearthed and purified?

This is it.

Pluto: Transformation and power, return effects and new ventures moving foreward in unorthodox ways. Sagitarius energies allow for a shoot to disable first, an ask questions later. This type of "cowboy" diplomacy will tire your opponents and disable thier powerbase. If your motives are pure, then the results will be just.

Neptune: Dreamy neptune is conjuncting the asteroid "echo." Aquarian powers make waves along the shallow surface, sometimes a little too much for people (espicially Pisces) to handle. Don;t overstep your bounds and expect uniform law of everything everywhere, that will result in the entire spectum of karma to come crashing down on you all at once.

Uranus: Uranus and Jupiter are still in opposition minus 4 degrees. Attempts to mve foreward in the money and financial world has been as slow as mud drying on a slighly cool day. But in the end, the cracked dried mud will provide insight into new patterns once thought impossible by the standards of the mind. Seeing things eye to eye is not so much of a problem, its pulling yourself away from the staring contest.

Venus: Gemini energies, duality, companionships and mental surges. Venus in Gemini is flighty, but receptive. coupled with the sun, mercury, and opposing the Sagitariun Pluto creating a driving force of (reasonable) propositions that as long they are done with the force of free will and true love they will energize those impacted with new life and new breath.

think of the tango, or for that matter, a square dance

Accck, what in the world.

Venus has started to direct again, and is ready to oppose Pluto, currently staying in retrograde. The 5 degree orb of oppositiong between the two (Ven @ 15Gem and Pluto @ 20Sag) is also squaring the plantets Jupiter (in virgo) and Uranus (retrograde) in Pisces. This irregular quadralateral in the mutable signs is moving waves in directiosn that are not always percieved, sort of an undertow.

Mysterous Pluto in Sagitarius opposes Venus, who has been prepared for this for the last two months during her retrograde. Its just a matter of catching up with the rest, Quick silver Gemini will provide that much needed speed.

Mars and Mercury in Leo, the Sun is preparing to move into its native habitat soon as well. The Dog days of summer during the reign of the feilne lion king, a paradox indeed. Mars is dynamic and aggressive in Leo, making the lion energies more pushy than usual but always with justification. It will be an odd combination of half-baked plans taking on their full as possible forms, the test of leadership and appearences of leadership, the fulfillment of long-standing goals, and the start of new endevours destined to come true.

Venus and Pkuto are still playing off eachother, Pluto is making it hard for Venus to expand, Venus is staying calm as Pluto puts on the pressure. The exact opposition, not due for several days, will result in the events of the last 3 months gelling together into another form alltogether.

Venus Opposing Pluto

My Venus and Pluto are conjunct in Virgo (8th House) in my natal chart. How does this opposition play with that?

kslibra1959,

unless the transiting opposition is aspecting your natal conjunction, the effects become very generalized. If it is, you have already been feeling a square from transiting Pluto for about 2 years already.
