Slowly, our drive is returning as Mars
in Scorpio pulls away from his trine with Neptune and waxes toward a
sextile with Pluto in Capricorn (perfects on August 15). Today,
though, we wake up to the Moon still in the ethereal waters of
Pisces. Overnight, she met Pluto by sextile too (2:58 AM) right
before Venus entered Leo (3:24 AM).
Venus in Leo's creations can be like
her children. When that child is rejected, Venus in Leo itself can
feel rejected. When Venus in Leo is trying to express themselves and
they are met with negative reactions or their creations are not
accepted, their fire can diminish. What this group has a tendency to
miss is Venus in Leo should foster love and acceptance (Venus) of who
they are (Leo) first and not put their self worth in a position of
dependency upon the reactions of others. Love and accept who you are
and if someone doesn't like it they can kiss your fuzzy Leo tail.
That would be the advice my Uranian self would give. However, this is
no easy thing...not for Venus in Leo and not for anyone. Still yet,
very necessary in order to live a fulfilling life. Love who you are.
It really can be boiled down to that.
The Moon reaches Void status after a conjunction with Chiron (11:15 AM) and a grounding and solid trine to Saturn (12:02 PM). We've got time to wrap up loose ends and catch up on a little more rest before the Moon enters Aries tomorrow at 9:01 AM. I'd advise taking advantage of that.
The sextile to Pluto could have brought
some pretty intense dreams. But, Venus in Leo, that's a different
animal entirely. I like the placement, myself. And, it heralds some
pretty famous and familiar folks like Michael Jackson, Madonna,
Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, Mother Teresa and the 14th Dali
Lama. Do you see the pattern through these folks? It's quite the
mixture of drama queens (Madonna/Cruise) all piled up with people who
retain the heart of a child (Jackson, Mother, Dali Lama).
Whitney Houston. Lindsay Lohan. Amy
Winehouse. And, the heart of a child can be crushed in a devastating
way. Yet, it always retains its beauty even if the wearer suffers
from the potential sensitivities. Venus in Leo didn't bring these
ladies the pain they experienced and it didn't put the narcotics in
their hands. But, Venus in Leo wants to be loved for who they are.
They delight in who you are and want to be loved the same way.
However, each of these ladies (Houston, Lohan, Winehouse..and
Jackson, too) have been outweighed by their talent. The person, the
Leo, is disregarded in light of creation. And, while Venus in Leo
relishes their creative gifts, they also want to be recognized as
themselves...the artist, the loving crafter, the Whitney, the
Michael...not so much the powerhouse performers that we put in a box
after their show has ended. There is a person...a living breathing
feeling person behind these creations that is overlooked in light of
the brilliance of the creation to begin with. Venus in Leo's ability
to create becomes an extension of “self”. What these natives
offer you through their creativities, is really a small piece of
themselves and when that is overlooked, depending on the rest of the
chart, it can be painful...causing the Venus in Leo native to seek
attention or warmth by alternative means.
There is a lot of tragedy laced within
the stories of some of these Venus in Leo natives. And, each of them
were, in some way, overpowered by their talent to a degree that they
began to loose a sense of self. At some point, they each became their
creations and the person behind those creations was lost. At the same
time, there are wonderful success stories attached to Venus in Leo
and a nice collection of folks that never lose the wonderment and
genuine values of a child.
What marks the difference? Well, a
myriad of things factor in like the person's Moon, Mars, early
childhood background AND the level of the Venus in Leo person's own
self-acceptance, ability/willingness to express that self AND the
reactions to that expression as a whole.

Appreciate how you got to be the person
you are. Your experience is unique and holds value. You are unique
and hold value. “You are a child of the Universe, no less than the
trees or the stars. You have a right to be here.”
By transit, Venus in Leo can bring a
desire for creativity and big hair (Woo hoo!). Venus will trine
Uranus (August 25) and shake loose some shackles. She will hit Pluto
and Neptune by inconjunct. She will meet up with Jupiter (August
18), square Saturn (August 26) and Mars (August 27). Venus' dance
card while in Leo is full!
Our other personal planets (Mercury/Mars) are pretty busy in the next bit too. Mercury leaves Leo for Virgo on August 15 where he will aspect just about everything in the sky. Mars is about to get fairly busy in Scorpio. The wheels of forward motion are certainly moving and will keep gaining speed until the slog of Mercury opposite Neptune begins next week. Believe it or not, Leo season is wrapping up already! Virgo season is right around the corner (August 23rd)...and you know what that means...
