4th March 2017 Venus turns retrograde


 
Hi everyone!
 
What’s been happening:
Here we all are sailing as a united fleet across the Piscean ocean.  Feels more like flying as the higher spiritual energies activated at the New Moon Solar eclipse have lifted us into the other dimensions.
 
Anyone for flying and floating:  We’re lifting off!  Higher consciousness coming in!
If you’ve been feeling lightheaded and spacey. we can put it down to the evolution of our mind consciousness which was so activated at the New Moon in Pisces Eclipse energies last weekend.
Mercury, ruler of our mental body, our mind manager, was a significant player at the New Moon and the impact of that is ongoing for a while.
 
I’ve been feeling like I’m levitating with my head out in the clouds lifting me up.  We’re accessing the higher spiritual energies and bringing them to earth...a bridge from 5D to 3D reality which is building in strength as we adjust to new ways of living and being. 
 
Radical wake-ups:  Uranus/Eris and Jupiter stirring shocks and changes!

It hasn’t been the most comfortable week with the Uranus/Eris opposition to Jupiter in Libra continuing the stirring up radical change as we download and integrate highly charged energies into our bodies. Whilst Jupiter is gradually moving on from Uranus/Eris we need to realise that they’ll be reconnecting in this square of challenge/opportunity in September as Saturn will be turning retrograde in the coming months.
 
The ripple effect of the Solar Eclipse New Moon in Pisces:  Ongoing! 
Of course the Solar eclipse provided a sudden change in consciousness and the playing out of this change process is continuing this month and on for the next 6 months.  The Uranus/Eris square to Jupiter added to the sudden shock and change at this New Moon event.
 

Head shift, mind shift...higher consciousness integrating:  Mars and Mercury lifting off!
Mars, as ruler of our physical body and our masculine energy has been a big player in this energy as the old warrior fight or flight energy is learning that resistance is futile.  With Mercury playing a big part in the shift too we’ve been experiencing the light-headedness (Mars rules the head) along with the mind blanking out. 
Mercury is ruler of the mind and being activated at the eclipse in the great ocean of Pisces, may be finding himself out of his depth.  Pisces is all emotion and Mercury is air! It may feel like the mind is inundated with emotional energy clearing a whole lot of clutter in the mind. 
 
 
4th March:  
Venus stations/turns retrograde at 13 degrees 09 Aries at 8.09 pm AEDT...deep love!
Retrograde until 15th April
Our mission to discover, uncover, reveal and own love for our essential selves:  I am love!
Aries is a fiery energy ruled by Mars, our masculine energy.  It’s not exactly the easiest energy for Venus, our feminine energy. Aries is a highly physical energy, the expression of our fire and desire so often expressed through our sexual energy.  In the 3D world, we seek the partner who offers this kind of loving connection.  However, our sexual energy is the expression of our spiritual passion or the search for that spiritual passion which can be so elusive in our 3 dimensional existence.
 
The inner journey begins:  Going deep within we discover the truth of who we are...love!
Now as Venus turns retrograde in Aries we are given the opportunity to discover and ignite the spiritual connection of the fire within our hearts.  Venus as ruler of our heart now travelling through Aries, the sign of fiery physical energy, is setting our hearts on fire with a deep love for our true self.
 
Window opportunity for claiming our ‘I am’ heart energy!

Venus retrograde occurs every couple of years so the experience of Venus in Aries won’t occur again for some time to come. 
 
Into the labyrinth of the heart:  Listen to the heart!
Retrograde periods of time for any planet give us a time of rapid spiritual growth and expansion if we are willing to embrace the opportunity to uncover our inner truth.
 
For Venus retrograde in Aries we’re being invited to discover our deepest desires, possibly hidden within the depths of our unconscious.  You may not even be aware of something that is yearning to be experienced and expressed from your heart.
 


The masks and filters are released:  Identity exposed!

Aries is all about our true self without the layers of social and familial conditioning, without the filters of projections and karmic burdens we’ve taken on from others in this life and in other times and places. 
 
Whether we’re retrieving, reclaiming or releasing old traumas and memories or claiming the beauty of our true self locked away in hiding, we’re coming into alignment with divine truth and therefore divine love.  

 
Back to the past and/or the past returns:  Passions, people, places, dreams knock at the door!
Be open to new emotions, desires which have been buried perhaps under a mountain of regret or disappointment. There is a likelihood we may reconnect to past passions including people, work interests, places and people including past loves, lovers, friends and or family.  Sometimes people come back into our lives for the joy of reconnection, renewal as well as completion of outstanding unfinished ‘business’ and of course this is the ‘business’ of love.  Lot of healing available at this time as we feel the love, forgiveness, compassion for ourselves as well as the truth in our hearts.
 
Red for Aries desire is with us but softened by Venus’ connection with the pink softness of unconditional love.  So, the passion is the undercurrent and the big picture energies of unconditional love filtering through as an overarching theme for this time.
 
 
The Sabian Symbol for this degree is very pertinent to reclaiming our passion and love within as we bring balance and love to our relationships.
 
Sabian Symbol for Venus stationing/turning retrograde

Aries 14
A SERPENT COILING NEAR A MAN AND A WOMAN
This Symbol shows that there is likely to be tense emotion, particularly around relationships. There can be a sense of tension, fear and passion. Situations may arise where something or someone tries to come between you and a beloved. This can be a person, an event or an emotion. Jealousy, temptation, fear, resentment or separation can arise. You may need to learn to let go and find new depths to your ways of relating and relationships. Are you looking for, or have you found, your Garden of Eden? Enticement. Allurement. The revelation of archetypal knowledge that may not be 'socially acceptable'. Temptations. Heated emotions. Passion. Kundalini energy. 
 
 
4th March:  
Mercury met Neptune at 12 degrees Pisces at 10.10 pm AEDT...mind raising reboot!
Effective 4th to 5th March
Higher and higher: A reboot in higher mind consciousness!
This seemed like a big ‘follow-up’ transit from the last week and the eclipse energies as Mercury meeting Neptune really took us up above the clouds into cosmic wonderland.
 
Ongoing energy from now:
Meetings of planets give us a fresh start, a reactivation of the energies working together and these two planets are particularly powerful in this post eclipse period activating within us the mental energies access to inspiration and imagination.
 
Activating the imagination:
Our minds are gradually lifting out of the mundane world of seeing reality as what is and turning on our capacities to work with our mental energies in the imaginative sphere to access new visions, build the dreams in the imaginative realm and to allow the inspiration to bring in solutions and possibilities. This energy is working beautifully with our Venus retrograde journey where we’re recovering lost dreams and opportunities.  We’re giving ourselves a second chance. 
 
Choosing the path of ease and grace:  
Giving up hard work, struggle, pain, suffering and the burden of having to carry it all alone!
It’s our choice all the time if we want to keep going along the old path of beliefs or if we’re prepared to try a new way of living.  You can say you don’t believe in doing it all an easier way or you can just step out and try the experiment of bringing to earth a more fulfilling life path.  
 
The Sabian Symbol for this degree says it all.  Time to stop battling, being the battler, fighting for every challenge that arises.  Time to hand it over. 
 
Sabian Symbol for Mercury meeting Neptune:
From Lynda Hill www.sabiansymbols.com
Pisces 13
A SWORD, USED IN MANY BATTLES, IS NOW IN A MUSEUM
This shows knowing when to stop battling in life, when to lay down one’s “Sword” and take up a higher position that reflects a more intelligent or spiritual way of being in the world. Sometimes, when reminded of the battles of the past, we are influenced towards actions that ensure peace. We are uplifted by the symbolic memory of past deeds of valor, although stings of defeat may be part of the story. You may be faced with the choice of fighting or reasoning which is confused by your lack of training or experience in the ways of “Battle”. Don’t go down with the ship. It helps to lay down one's 'sword' - not in order to surrender, but to stop the 'warring' Will power. Martial arts. Putting aside vengeance and revenge. History. Leaving stressful relationships. Trophies from the past. The Spear of Destiny. Retirement. Words as swords. 
 
10th March:  Mars enters Taurus at 11.34 am AEDT
Until 21st April
Out of the frying pan of Aries:  All steamed up and nowhere to go!
Mars is the fiery, masculine ruler of Aries and he’s been travelling through his home territory of Aries. He’s been trying to get fired up and running but his engine has been somewhat dampened by the other planetary energies, not the least the watery Pisces energies.  He’s been in the spa, hot springs releasing all manner of toxins from his physical body...and his hot head!
 
Into the arms of Mother Earth...Taurus:   Heart opening!  Singing our song!
Taurus is ruled by Venus, our heart energy and also the ruler of Mother Earth.  In our Venus retrograde journey to the centre of our being we’re being supported by our journey to centre of Mother Earth thanks to Mars who has his engine at the ready taking us through the flowering fields of Mother Earth’s pink unconditional love.
 
Taurus rules the throat and the neck...a good time to find your voice of love!

Time to ground the dreams of earthly abundance and love:
You can see it’s only a steam engine with some older carriages because Mars will be travelling at Taurus’ speed...slow and steady.  There’s no high speed forward movement in Taurus as Taurus is supported by the stability and knowingness that the earth supports our every move in getting our fire grounded in the earthly dimension.
 
Taurus rules earthly abundance and the deliciousness of our earthly existence with all its sensual delights.  Enjoy the journey!

Hugs all around!
 
Love and blessings as always to all of us as we ride the elements in our flying boats of the higher mind and emotions and in our grounded steam train planting our hopes and dreams in Mother Earth.
 
We just have to keeping singing our songs of love and hope and dancing to the beat of our own drum!
