Venus across the Sun
written by Veronika Robinson
This morning, just before 5am UK
time, Venus made a transit across the Sun. This is rare, happening only twice
every 243 years (in pairs). There won’t be another one in our lifetimes.
Venus is often associated with love,
not just in astrology, but elsewhere. Venus, however, is also about what we
attract and what we’re attracted to. In some ways, our birth chart
is like a mandala of manifestation ~ though it is always free will what one
does with the blueprint of the cosmos.
Where Venus sits in our birth chart
shows what we love, what we’re drawn to, the type of people, places, events
we’re attracted to, and what we find beautiful. It also shows our self-love.
The sign Venus is in shows the way we're drawn to these things.
So the symbolism of Venus crossing
the Sun this morning highlights the need for us to direct our energy inward,
and to individually and collectively ask:
‘what
is it I truly value?’
‘What do I
find desirable, beautiful,
harmonious
about life, and in this life?
What am I
prepared to do to create this for myself,
for the
world?’
There are some incredible powerful
transits coming up between Uranus (revolution, freedom) and Pluto
(transformation) which will affect each and everyone of us. (I’ll write more on
this shortly)
This transit of Venus comes along to remind us
of the beauty that exists in this world ~ if only we stop and take notice.
Use this day of the rare transit to
observe and give thanks for ALL the beauty in your life ~ and let it carry you
through the next few potentially turbulent years.
