Key Astro Dates for July

Blessed Friday ~ Venus Day!

If you are new to Venus Wisdom, welcome. I'm glad that you have connected with this community of visionaries and pioneers across the globe inspired to live from our whole hearts, fully embracing our humanity and dreaming of a future where we’ve created a culture based on care and alignment with nature's principles.

I am just releasing Key Astro Dates for July as I took some much-needed time off and away from computers and social media. I was delighted to spend some time in the redwoods with my daughter.

During this hiatus, I tucked in and got quiet to touch into the magnitude of what wants to be shared in the coming months. So deep and wide. I look forward to sharing that as it unfolds.

You may wish to screenshot the dates for the month (at the end of this email) and save them somewhere so you can follow along. Even if you don’t understand all of the astrology, you can begin to tune into the big movements and reference which players are involved. It’s likely you are going to feel some of these viscerally.

Every 19 months Venus guides us into a new heroine’s journey. When we hear the call and say “yes”, we embark. When we give up control and surrender, again and again, we become initiates into the ancient feminine mystery of life, death, and rebirth.

If you have the Venus Wisdom Calendar and Guidebook, you have support in decoding the meaning of the planets, signs, and houses as well as syncing with Venus and documenting your journey. Links below to purchase those or leave a review on Amazon if you bought the printed versions. This helps us to bring more Venus Wisdom offerings to the world.

July started with a bang and will end with one, too. In the middle of the month, coming up next week, we have a Capricorn Super Full Moon very close to Pluto. Can we stay centered in our hearts in the turbulence of these storms?

The intensity of this upcoming Full Moon in the sign of Capricorn gives us an extra potent opportunity to see the patterns that have enslaved us and to let that shit go! The Moon represents our unconscious habits and familiar patterns. They feel safe because we know them. Yet, they bind us to an identity of the past.

Pluto, the Agent of Transformation and the Cosmic Detective, is relentlessly revealing the corruption of governments, corporations and anyone who has authority in our current "power over" society. This agent of transformation will take us all the way down the rabbit hole and out the other side. Our hearts are strong enough to hold it all, especially in this badass Venus cycle.

Where has the dominator culture woven into our thoughts, our perspective, our sense of who we are? This Moon may reveal what has been previously hidden, given us an opportunity to see it, feel it and release it.

Remember, we are in a Venus in Capricorn cycle that began on January 8, 2022. That is the Venus Star Point where Venus met the Sun closest to the Earth. Even though she moved on from Capricorn, that energy infuses this entire cycle. I liken this to the influence of our Star Clan. Each of us was born into one of five Venus Star Points.

For those who have a Capricorn Venus Star Point (starting in January 1986) or have your natal Venus in Capricorn, this is a particularly relevant cycle for you!

In this cycle Capricorn is the "Grandmother Energy," the backdrop of this entire journey as Venus moves through the signs and meets up with the Moon each month to open a new "chapter" in this book.

Capricorn is also the sign that Pluto has been in since 2008 and is now in the final degrees. Pluto will shift into Aquarius for the first time in this current Venus cycle!

You may remember, Venus met up with Pluto twice at the end of the last cycle and again at the beginning of this cycle on March 3rd. So, Plutonian level change (the deepest) is a part of this journey.

This is an initiation into the authority of our hearts so that we can become stewards of this beautiful earth and embody the wisdom of the elders who consider the next seven generations in all decisions.

Now is a brilliant time to sync with Venus as the evolutionary force, creating space to discover who you are now, more magnificent than you knew.

On Monday, we arrive at the Peak Venus Portal, before this super intense Full Moon. Venus in Gemini will be visible in the east before dawn in opposition to the Moon in Sagittarius setting in the West.

This is a beautiful time to rise early and make a pilgrimage to see her in the Sky. What outdated stories and identities are ready to be released? What has been moving through your heart since June 26th?

If you have had the courage to clear the way and face your truth something new may be blossoming - a desire, an inspiration, an idea, a revelation, a creative offering. Can you show up to receive the fullness of your heart with no expectation?

Yes, it’s a tricky proposal but Venus is now in Gemini and loves to be tricky. She is the Trickster, laughing with us as we struggle like caterpillars in our chrysalis, believing in wings but never having taken flight.

If you have been following me for a while, you may remember that I anticipated this current Venus cycle would be one of the most difficult that we have lived through. We are bridging the old world and the new earth.

We are riding this train of transformation all the way through August of 2023, so we have time to learn how sync with Venus and move from the subtly of our Heart Essence. Together, and in partnership with Venus, we are anchoring the new feminine frequency that opens the way to a new way of being.
