Venus enters Sagittarius and the people you are most drawn to connect with are generous, kind, and optimistic. This cycle inspires the tendency to idealize love or take a philosophical outlook in your approach. You may be more willing to give of emotions openly and honestly, but your own desire not to be limited or confined and fear of true commitment can keep you from developing deep and rewarding relationships.
You can also be vulnerable to those unworthy of your trust despite your determination to maintain high standards. Venus is currently linked with the star, Toliman which can provoke questions concerning people’s principles or cause one to be argumentative if there’s the belief of falsehoods. You may feel uncertain about the intentions of others or experience a sense of foreboding about being deceived or tricked into a commitment that is illegal or unscrupulous. In fact, this cycle marks a period when the values and beliefs of society in general are challenged or matters involving a popular person are emphasized. Issues may tie to contact with those who’re hospitalized or confined to an institution.

Although she has entered a new sign, Venus continues to focus on quiet time alone at home or entertaining guests in intimate settings. She continues to help you work toward the goal of creating the environment that is conducive to your needs both internally and externally. As such, you may still be in the throes of redecorating, renovating, or perhaps moving.
This may be due to needed healing and recovery and the desire to heal old wounds, especially those connected to your relationship with parents. In fact, the Part of the Mother sits at the uppermost pinnacle of this chart signaling a focus on bringing the parental role, reputation, aspirations and standing in the community into public view. Pride at being raised in a working class may be significant to the circumstance. It can put on display how you relate to and are affected by your mother or someone who is like a mother to you. The Part of Daughters is opposite Uranus marking sudden, surprising, or unexpected events. The North Node hooked into the Part of Discord is sitting beside Uranus and may bring into play situations where strongly held opinions and beliefs cause arguments, are sometimes offensive, or produce potential challenges. Patience and discretion is required to avoid forcing certain issues.
A retrograde Mars (already a signifier of dealing with conflict, especially difficult when retrograde) conjunct the Part of Private Enemies also stirs the mix and fated events can occur as a result of your actions. The source of disagreement is underscored by the wealth axis in critical degree suggesting a clash in values or issues surrounding personal resources versus shared assets. The signs of Taurus and Scorpio are intercepted indicating obstacles and delays related to home, domestic affairs, career, and social position. It’s the end of a financial cycle involving debt and/or real estate, In some cases, this is tied to a death, probate, inheritance, or taxes.
With Mercury weakened by combustion, mental activities, travel and communication are problem areas. You can be critical of other people’s opinions, or of your siblings or neighbors. You can be nit-picky over the trivial or inconsequential with a nervous mind and a tendency to brood over the past. Expression as a whole can be taxing because of language barriers, verbal skills, or just a different mindset. The problem is retaining individuality while also accepting the importance of social graces and parameters. As a result, friendships are apt to change, and in some cases, are unreliable. The intercepted Uranus is a reminder to remain aware of the character of your associates and how they’re impacting your life. With Mars in harsh aspect to Neptune it’s a double warning of dubious situations and questionable characters, particularly in relation to men who may victimize others. For some, events produce a reality check, difficulties in a love union, or inhibitions that make associations challenging.
The main concern are events and changes happening in and around home and family. If this doesn’t sound at all like the peaceful respite you were trying to create in your domestic affairs, it may be due to the fact that Venus doesn’t really have much power to offer her beneficence in the sign of Sagittarius. However, take note that a temporary period of her potency takes place between November 22-26th.
Despite the challenges faced, this Venus trek through Sagittarius will highlight persons of high intellect gifted with persuasive eloquence, reverential and inspiring. It may indicate the common touch that allows one to be in step with the masses or skills in dealing with the public in any profession. Full recognition for efforts can come later than expected, but a great reservoir of unexpressed talent and energy is waiting for expression. In rising above the worries and disharmony, a firmly directed will and faith in self brings triumph.
