Venus in Libra

It’s wonderful to have Venus back in the comfort of home territory until October 23rd.

Recently the planets have been urging you to refine and review your connections with friends, lovers and your social network.

Mercury retrograde has amplified this need by slowing down your processes and interrupting the day to day grind, so you can reflect on the dynamics in relationships.

Venus has completed its trip through Virgo, an earth sign with cold and dry qualities.

This may have brought debate or distance between you and your loved ones, or it could have propelled discussion about the practicalities, even deal breakers between you.

It has been a heady, mind dominant time, relationships have been evaluated and tested in everyday life. Some relationships didn’t survive, while others benefited from honest, clear communication and agreements.

The purpose of Venus through Virgo was to do an inventory of what you need in a relationship.

Then to see how your current connections measure up.

While Venus is in Libra, allow yourself to connect to the lightness of your being.

If you have been a hermit, accept an invitation or two.

New connections may be found and networks expanded through shared conversations with like-minded people.

If things haven’t gone well in a relationship, this Libran energy could be useful to live and let live.

Smooth things over and start something fresh in a space that resonates, now that you know what feels good. It’s a beautiful time to share your ideas and improve your listening.

Venus rules music, decadent treats, pleasure, parties, healing, beauty, sexuality, aesthetics, dance.

Appreciate all the beauty surrounds you, and all that you are.

Enjoy the freshness of nature, the smile of a stranger, exquisite tastes that delight your senses and make sure you take time to smell the roses.
