Venus, the goddess of love, beauty, and our values opposes Uranus, the planet of unexpected change, turnarounds, and freedom on Thursday, December 18th.
Venus in Scorpio is in her detriment, and therefore isn’t the most comfortable, suggesting some difficulty in the areas that she represents. Instead of leisurely and easily enjoying herself as the Goddess would prefer, Venus may have you working harder than usual to get to life's true pleasures.
For instance, maybe she insists you develop healthier habits for yourself, like a daily yoga or meditation practice, or cut out things in your everyday life that haven’t been serving you.
Relationship issues may suddenly reveal themselves, as Scorpio isn’t a sign for letting anything slide without scrutiny and the honest truth.
This aspect may be waking you up to values that have been deeply buried. Perhaps you realize the ways you have or haven’t been living by those values.
It could be you’re coming to a new understanding around more authentic ways of expressing yourself- whether through style or fashion, art, romance or sex, or in connections in general with others.
This transit will likely have you feeling a sense of urgency to make changes right now.
Breathe. Take note of what’s arising for you. Observe reactions you might have or behaviors you feel inclined to indulge in. Maybe write them down or say them out loud. You can ask for support if need be- maybe from a friend or family member, an animal, a deity, or any nature that’s around you.
Be mindful of making rash decisions that aren’t well thought-out, but consider making a plan or contemplating how you can incorporate these newfound insights around values, love, connection, expression, and beauty into your life in slower, more sustainable ways.
While Venus-Uranus combinations can feel jarring, it’s a time to be honest with yourself and others about what you need and want in relationships, what rituals and practices can aid you in your enjoyment of life, what you might need to cut out or work on, and what you’re doing or not doing to live a life in accordance to your most cherished values.
