- Venus direct at 5 Aries on February 10th
- Venus retrograde at 5 Aries conjunct the Sun = Star Point = March 25th
- Venus direct at 5 Aries May 7th
This gives a three-month window to incorporate the meaning of this particular VSP into our lives.The new Aries Star Point will be a Morning Star, which last occurred eight years ago at 7 Aries. The Evening Star Venus occurred four years ago, in 2013, at 8 Aries. So the areas of your chart that are most sensitive to this are 4-8 Aries or 4-8 Cardinal, where Venus’ message will be felt most intensely.
What are some of the characteristics of an Aries VSP? If you were born with this placement, you are someone who sets out on the journey of life to discover yourself most fully. It describes the archetype of the hero, soldier, adventurer, rescuer or leader whose mantra would always be: I did it my way. But young-ish, even when mature, this Aries VSP retains its youthful spirit. The “Hero” motif, most importantly, because these are the youthful spirits that are bold and visionary and take it upon themselves to pave the way forward.
The Aries VSP periods are times when any one of us might feel motivated to lead the charge. Because of this, and because of its degree and phase this year, I have named it the Year of Passionate Activism. There will be a lot of screaming mouths, like babies, all around us. How do we try to contain it and can we contain this fiery, warrior-like energy of Aries, as it continues to play out through 2017?
As the Aries retrograde Venus point begins a new cycle of Venus, Agent 1123, Gemini Brett will transmit the greatest starry story ever told: The Descent of Inanna, Queen of Heaven and Earth, into Erishkigal’s underworld Kur for death and rebirth. This enlightening StarryTelling astronomical presentation will clearly show how the Sumerian tale of old follows Venus’ 584-day Synodic Dance with Earth and Sun. The 40 days and 40 nights of Venus’s retrograde is often misunderstood as the Descent of Innana into the underworld, yet the with the retrograde Venus only disappears for about 10 days.
In this segment Agent 1123 will introduces you to discover one whole Venus cycle, you will be introduced to the Planetary cast who play the roles and set the stages and, most importantly, you will be given the keys to utilize the sacred timings of Inanna’s descent and rise in Earthly skies for profound personal growth in the next round.
