Lovey, Spicy Venus-Mars Conjunction 2022
The Venus Mars Conjunction that was exact on Feb. 16 will continue in varying degrees until early April - perfect time for Spring! (birds and bees, hint, hint!)
While the two planets flow between Aquarius and Capricorn, we’ll have multiple opportunities to not just evaluate and meditate on what we want out of love, friendship and business, but what makes us feel good - AND we’ll have the energy and drive (thanks Mars!) to put it into action.
This conjunction is the balance of the feminine and the masculine. It is a passionate and romantic time where we FINALLY - post major Covid - where we will feel this drive to get out and connect with people. And guess what - if our one-on-one relationships have felt a bit stale, well - of course they would - we need good vibes with friends, work, meeting people, socializing, being inspired and connecting with different energies to feel ALIVE. This in turn will inject our romantic relationships with more zing and flavor.
Neptune also takes a bit of a dance with these two planets, adding even more romantic deliciousness to the combo. March 6 is the next conjunction - plan a date night or date weekend around that date and just feel the yumminess ooze from your pores. That sounds kind of gross - but seriously, you’ll be dripping with anticipation.
And don’t think we only have that day - we have weeks of this relationship between Venus and Mars - intermixed with the romantic Neptunian vibe of sun in Pisces and Jupiter in Pisces. Yums.
AAAAnd - just like everything else, because this is life - there is another side. While Venus and Mars are the super elixirs for love and passion - they still have some polarity - again, the masculine and feminine. Venus likes harmony and beauty. Mars likes war and is the more carnal expression of love. So of course there are fireworks when they meet. So while its a super lovey dovey time (especially after that taxing and insecure-making Venus retrograde) We may run into some friction in our relationship until we get on the same page! After all, not everyone’s idea of romance and fun is the same as yours - OR the way you spend money (yep, Venus rules some of that too!) Thankfully we have Pisces on our side to soften the conversations and help keep us in a compassionate state of mind. Listen to yourself, your heart’s desire, and be open to hearing your partner’s. Make this a collaboration - not a solo mission.
It’s always helpful to know where your Mars and Venus is and where these planets are transiting now (check out your chart on astro.com) - but even without that more detailed info - the weather report is the same:
Be playful!
Plan romantic dates that are unique and different from your routine
Be gushy. Seriously, write that corny poem - they will love it!
Be open to heart-to-heart conversations about love and finances. Stay open and compassionate.
Appearance thoughts ‘come up’ - feeling the need to buy better clothes, wear your hair differently, get some cosmetic procedure? Very common right now. Just be sure to THINK about what love really is - yes, prettiness may attract some people to you - but its not always the best people. How can you make yourself more beautiful on the INSIDE? How can you be a better lover, friend, business partner just by having more LOVING ENERGY? This is what forms and keeps lasting relationships that are actually worth something!
Be willing to be vulnerable. The environment is SUPER supportive to you sharing your innermost being!
Above all ENJOY love. Revel in it. This is true all the time, but flow with the divine energy of the universe right now, and feel the extra vibes supporting you to love and be loved in return…and to know exactly how you want that to look and feel.
Full Moon Halloween! What it means for ALL SIGNS!
Happy Full Moon Halloween Oct. 31, 2020!
This full moon happening in Taurus is filled with electric energy.
Remember that we don’t just feel the effects of the full moon day of - this whole week from Oct. 25 and lasting until Nov.3 is the building up, peak and culmination of the blue moon (second full moon in a month) full moon energy.
Are you ready to cast your spells?
Spell casting isn’t just witchery. We cast spells in our every day lives. Ever set an intention? Ever written down your goals? Ever made a wish and blew out a candle on a birthday cake (ahem, pre-Covid). You are sending a spell, wish, expectation out into the universe. And this weekend is a prime time to remember that powerful ritual.
How has life been for you since April 22, 2020? This was the new Moon in Taurus; the full moon on Oct. 31 in Taurus is the culmination of that cycle.
What have you learned about yourself? Are you ready to move forward with a new energy and focus and let some things and people go that aren’t an authentic use of your time and resources?
Whatever isn’t in alignment with you - your dreams, wishes, desires and highest good, is going to feel extra crappy right now. You’re going to KNOW it’s time to move on.
Uranus is a major player affecting this full moon. Uranus brings a heightened level of anxiety, a greater need for grounding (helped by the earthy Taurus moon), surprising changes and information, rebellious actions from yourself or others, and possible major shifts. Think of plugging into an electrical socket. Uranus supercharges the atmosphere.
Also, Venus is opposing Chiron, the Wounded Healer. Many of us will be focusing on relationships - what are our triggers, our patterns - and especially what do we not want to tolerate anymore.
We may suddenly see how we wound ourselves in relationships - how we open ourselves up to repeated trauma with our repetitive ways of communicating, welcoming in partners that don’t see our value, and being with people we know aren’t good for us.
Uranus and the moon in Taurus will push us to pay attention to our sovereignty and self-worth. If you feel like you deserve trauma, you will accept trauma. At some point, we need to look at what choices we make and realize there are other options. There should be no judgement or harsh criticism of self at this time. Simply the awareness that we are ready to shift our realities. If you feel like you need to forgive yourself for some shitty past decisions, do so and move on. Visualize and feel into how you want things to look and feel differently in your daily life and relationships. Are you ready to feel free? This freedom will only come by committing to self.
Full Moon Focus for Each Sign:
Aries - Value. Taurus already rules over values, and this is also where the moon is hanging out in your chart. Are you aligning to your values - do you even know what they are? You may want to spend some time writing down your values and see if you are off track. Look at how these values align with your financial health as well. There’s time to course correct.
Taurus - it’s all about you Taurus - the moon is in your first house of Identity. Where in your life are you NOT being authentic? Can you show up more wholly in your life, career and relationships and not be afraid to speak your mind? This is the beginning of a new month for you, where YOU are the priority. Make sure you are making decisions based on your needs first. Then the rest will fall into place.
Gemini - Going inward may be the best thing you can do right now. You may not feel like partying it up - and that’s just fine. Your spiritual world is illuminated, and you’re feeling the need to nurture the divine within you with a little peace and comfort. You may be looking at letting go of old spiritual beliefs or behaviors that have been too confining.
Cancer - Any problems with your buds or social connections? A friend you need to let go of that’s draining you? Ready to switch up the friend pod? There may be sudden changes in friend-world. Just go with the flow and try not to take it too personally. Friends come and go in perfect timing.
Leo - Your career is up this full moon. Just because you aren’t working on Saturday doesn’t mean you won’t get news in the days prior or after that shift some things at work. And this information may be better than what you hoped for.
Virgo - Covid season has been great for nesting, but you’re feeling the urge to get out of Dodge. Just know Mercury retrograde may throw a wrench and the Uranus/moon relationship may throw in some surprises to your travel plans - but isn’t spontaneity and surprise what you’re looking for anyway? If you can’t travel, expand your mind.
Libra - Money and transformation, one or the other or both. Eighth house matters are always deep ones. Other people's money, debts, inheritances, windfalls...something may shift in the money realm, or in your outlook on the control or power money or lack of has over you. Sex also falls under this area of the chart. How are the power dynamics in your sex life? Ready for a super-charge?
Scorpio - Relationships receive full illumination now. You have insights you can’t ignore, and these last months since April 22 have magnified the crap you won’t take, the crap that’s holding you back in relationships, and the treasures you want to keep. You can say good-bye now, and you can welcome the vibes you really want to stay in your relationship world. Remember - it all starts from within you. You are a powerful manifester, and if you are a mess, you’ll attract messes. Time to journal and really figure out where you want to heal and change in the realms of how you want to relate and what you want to bring in.
Sagittarius - How’s your daily routine? How’s your work-life balance? How’s your health? Now’s the time to make some radical changes in time management, health practices, and general self-care. Don’t wait for health crises or breakdowns to happen to make those changes you’ve been thinking about for six months. Start with one habit you need to change, and watch how this gives you steam to tackle some more.
Capricorn - It’s play time! You’re so good at putting your nose to the grindstone and taking care of your responsibilities. Take this weekend to prioritize fun, kids, creativity, music, dance, or anything that helps you let your hair down. Don’t worry, your life won’t fall apart if you give in to some hedonism this weekend!
Aquarius - the theme is home for you - have you moved recently or thinking about moving? Some pretty sudden opportunities have been in the air and may culminate this weekend, or at least shift so that you can start to see the path ahead. A change of environment is just what you need. Even if you aren’t changing locales, change your nest. It’s time to revamp the space around you to allow fresh energy into your life.
Pisces - Communication! Now may be time to say your piece, or someone else may give you a piece of their mind. Don’t fight it, you know that it’s time to clear the air. When what was held back is spoken, you can finally move on to the next chapter. Try to stay clear, firm, and kind, just how you would like to be spoken to. You can make your point without being a brat. And so can they. Don’t let anyone verbally abuse you.
