The rare Cazimi conjunction happens this morning when Venus joins the Sun. A Cazimi occurs when a planet is less than one degree, or 17 minutes, away from the Sun. Usually, a planet sitting close to the sun becomes combust, or burned out, by the sun’s heat. We see this during the dates of August 7 through the 21st with Venus. However, today, at the special point of a Cazimi, Venus is now considered to be “at the Sun’s Throne.” Instead of being burned out, it is charged up by the Sun’s rays.
When Venus reaches this point today, it imbues special gifts. A Venus Cazimi fans the flames of love. Look for intensely Venus moments of beauty in your surroundings, sweet words, lovely music and art that takes you to another place. If you don’t experience it naturally, create something beautiful yourself. It will be blessed with an extra dose of Venusian power.
Take some time today to reflect on what this Venus retrograde cycle has given you so far. Today’s Cazimi brings Venus back to morning star status. This moment begins a new synodic cycle of Venus that takes us to June of 2024. Watch and see where this takes you, as this midpoint of Venus retrograde begins new possibilities.
We continue with aspects to Chiron today. The Moon in Cancer squares Chiron at 10:06am. Take a moment to pray for healing with relationships at home or with your mother. The dark Cancer moon favors contemplation. Time alone if you feel snappy due to vulnerable emotions.
If you are looking to get out of the house and do something, the Moon in sextile to Mars happens at 12:56 EST. Activity, both work and play, are given a confident and playful tone. People are feeling more competitive and flirtatious. Blend this with the Venus Cazimi for a romantic afternoon.
The moon goes void of course at 12:56pm. A great time to soak in some lazy Venus energy with the ones you love.
We begin to break from the low, dark energy of the Balsamic Moon this evening when the moon makes a sextile to Uranus in Taurus. Breaking free from restrictions and doing something out of the ordinary comes to mind.
This can be a good time to initiate improvements and changes within the home or emotional life.
Up ahead, we continue with two strong aspects to Uranus. Uranus is the planet of the unexpected and unusual. Surprises and the need for innovation enter our world.
This Week, August 13-17th:
Mars in Virgo Trine to Uranus in Taurus - This brings us the desire to make changes or act out of our usual routine. Very helpful for creative breakthroughs and fresh changes.
Sun in Leo square Uranus in Taurus - This can be an unpredictable week, so prepare to be flexible. Expect sudden surprises and possible setbacks. This aspect is more accident prone. Slow down if you are stressed.
This is the kind week that results in schools being cancelled out of the blue. Keep an eye on your kids and their lives. Bring an extra change of clothes and a snack in the car this week, and make sure your tank of gas and bottles of water are full.
Have a great day in the Sun!
