Venus entered Libra 8/15 at 9:27pm pst

Out of the practical into the romantic. Venus has shifted into her 2nd home sign Libra, Bringing out the charm, beauty & lushness within all of us. Libra is Cardinal 🜁 Air - sparking up connections, many pleasures & fairness. After all of the Virgo clearing out, correcting, & nitpicking, Libra comes beautifying and rebalancing us.

This transit is social, charismatic & lavish - romanticizing everything, feeding expensive habits/taste & avoiding arguments/bad vibes at all costs. Venus in Libra just wants everything cohesive, aesthetically pleasing & they want their flowers while they’re here.

During this time you may find your self beautifying your space(s), switching up your style, shopping more, negotiating with charm to get what you desire & wanting to make new connections or renewing current ones. There’s a magnetism and ease in the energy when this transit happens, it can sometimes even be too much.

Today & a few days following, Venus makes a harmonizing connection to the ☊ North Node in Gemini, opening a flow of communication with our higher selves & a clearer pathway to our desires & purpose. Then she’ll make another sweet connection with Saturn, keeping us grounded in reality while also being able to romanticize and see the beauty in things. Toward the end of August Venus will oppose Chiron ℞ - we all may feel a bit more needy and extra sensitive in/toward our relationships (not just intimate) as this transit can open up some wounding around giving & receiving love. Utilize it to learn and connect deeply to what love means & is for you. Near the end of this transit (early September) Venus has a tough encounter with Pluto ℞ at the same time that she’s vibing with Jupiter ℞ - we may be needing to get real with ourselves & others - work through & clear up power struggles & manipulation in order to experience the good and pureness of the relationships we have created and are meant to experience.

The lovey, airiness of Libra will keeping us in high spirits and constantly in flow but somethings to watch out for during this transit are: being way to agreeable for peace sake, passive aggression &/or avoiding conflict , people pleasing, and over spending. So just be mindful.
