Venus RX
By: Patty Yoon
Whoa 2020, this is cray. Pluto, Saturn, Jupiter have been doing a number on us this year, and while there’s a background story of restructuring/rebalancing on a massive scale, we can direct our gaze to lovely Venus.
Venus shifted into airy Gemini on April 3, and we can expect to feel the energy shift on April 11 when Mercury moves into take charge Aries. Gemini themes include: embracing curiosity and versatility, learning yourself something new, and exploring on a mental level.
Venus in Gemini is significant for several reasons. Venus rules the Libra full moon that we just had on April 7, and the Taurus new moon that is coming up on April 22. We’ve also got a Venus retrograde from May 12 through June 25, highlighting communication, emotional needs and relationships. The planet of relating, love and desires will be in the sign of Gemini until August 8 - 4 freaking months!
The north node of fate is wrapping up the Cancer journey of nurturing, the divine feminine, self-development and home (so literal) and will enter Gemini on May 5. Gemini north node themes include new choices, new growth, ambitious desires and absorbing new info. Aka, Venus and the north node will be hanging out together all summer in Gemini - big emphasis on both Venus and Gemini themes! Look for the house in your chart where 5 degrees to 21 degrees of Gemini is, this part of your life will be highlighted by the Venus Rx! And if you want some clues about what will come up, Venus will be entering the degrees of the retrograde on April 10. Watch for what comes up between April 10 and May 12 - they’re smoke signals from the future!
