Venus made a tense square (90 degree angle) to Pluto this morning (December 3rd).
Pluto brings things up to the surface, especially topics around power, money, sex, and things that feel like they are of life or death stakes.
Since Venus also represents wealth, luxury, beauty, & relationships, you may have noticed some intensity, anxiety, or deep contemplation around these themes over the last week.
Maybe you’ve been feeling concerned about money, how much you have, how much you’ve been spending, and how much you feel you need to make to feel secure.
Perhaps you’ve been trying to find the balance in your 1:1 connections, especially sensitive to the give and take dynamics and how much power you each have.
It could be that you’ve been craving more erotic or sexual relationships or that you’ve been thinking intently about someone specific, discovering a deeper well of feelings.
Whatever it is, it’s likely you’re thinking of navigating these desires and needs in new, more authentic ways.
Venus just passed over the south node of the Moon in Libra on Wednesday, November 29th, the point at which Eclipses happen, suggesting a letting go of old ways of seeking pleasure or being in relationship that are no longer working for you.
Thus, you might be changing course in how you relate, think about/spend money, show love, and enjoy yourself.
All in all, your values may be changing, including the ways you connect to yourself.
Some questions to consider are:
What’s valuable to you?
How can you anchor yourself to a place of inner security, when the external world seems to show no signs of safety?
What are the signs of a healthy and satisfying relationship?
What brings real pleasure and joy?
What would you like to create or birth into this world? Or into your life?
We will continue to explore these questions as Venus enters Scorpio, sign of her exile, tomorrow on December 4th, 2023 where she is in deep waters until the end of December.
