The cycle of Venus and Neptune

You notice a trend? We are moving through the different cycles of Venus, starting with the outer planets and moving out...although we seemed to skip Uranus, but I did that on purpose since Uranus exists much on its own. Jupiter and Saturn are somewhat of a pair, and Neptune and Pluto are as well. We will finish the discussion of these first after I finish this two day old organic chicken breast and get some fucking clothes on...I'm freezing, plus the helicopters have been circling around this field so we may need to walk and find a new place to set up camp....we will discuss some astrology along the way....

When we die, where do we go? Energy never dies, it only changes form, and so prior to changing form, do we go back to a collective pool of undifferentiated energy? If we reincarnate into another form, what comes of our work in previous lives? What becomes of our value system that our soul has built, and does this effect the choices our soul makes as to the parents we choose in the next life? or the set of circumstances that we are born into? Are these a reflection of our values? of the very relationships that we need to continue to learn and grow from as a continuum from the previous life?
The answer to this is yes, and because of this, there always seems to be something "otherworldly" about the relationships and circumstances in the Venus/ Neptune person.

However, there is something quite "otherworldly" about the native of intensive Venus/ Neptune aspects....

Seemingly having a foot in both worlds, Venus/ Neptune natives are extremely creative and gifted souls. They are perhaps brilliant musicians, writers, or artists. They are extremely sensitive souls, and because of their connection to this other plane, see "God" in practically everyone. If they themselves fully embody the archetype, they may be talented people filled with love but channeling that love to humanity rather than one person through their work (music, art, writing, etc)...thus not truly ever entering into any intensive one on one relationships. If they do, their great sensitivity can make it challenging, as they may project onto others archetypes or their pure selves rather than the reality that they truly exist in. Because of this, Venus/ Neptune people can be seemingly in some kind of fantasy world, and lack touch with reality.

On the other end of the spectrum, they themselves can be victims of projection of these archetypes from other people. We see this all the time as people tend to project onto artists and movie stars. They place them on pedestals and live vicariously through them...projecting sometimes a different set of standards..of VALUES that although they may be incapable of living by, the object of their projections or affections should be able to live by them.


The cycle of Venus and Neptune provides an opportunity to work out karma through a renewed sense of idealism and attunement to the creative plane. Along the cycles path, it holds checks and balances for the conflict between idealism or fantasy and reality. Through heightened sensitivity, the native can provide a universal medium of communication that brings compassion and understanding to all matters of relationship, or they can attune themselves to these communications and through this, realize that no matter where they are in their own cycle of relationship or values, that within the collective consciousness lies the vibration of their highest aspirations, of their highest romantic idealism....and because it always exists there as a flash or tone from the akashic records....they are never alone for everything within them that they love exists everywhere.

Given this, the true purpose of this cycle is to embody the highest ideal within ourselves...to find the ideal self...to appreciate the self for what it is worth on higher, metaphysical levels.....as a great healer, a great lover, a channel for Universal Light that we all are.

At the conjunction of these planets at the highest level, natives begin to see that the patterns of circumstances in relationship that they find themselves has a mirror in archetypes; in the stories of mythology and fairytales, they find played out the dramas of their own lives. They may recognize that there are 1000 songs that sing about precisely the patterns of their own relationship...they find authors from psychology to fantasy that write in such a way where they feel understood only through these mediums. They themselves have the ability to express themselves through music, art, or writing. They are sensitive and have a much easier time expressing in this way then in face to face confrontations, which they avoid. The cycle begins with the recognition that we are truly not alone in our karma, for our pattern of karma is universal.

At the collective level, the native can feel somewhat like a stranger in a strange land of deceptive souls that just don't live up to their high level of romantic idealism. Others see a somewhat innocent, pure and spiritual soul that can be swooned and even taken advantage of, however depending on the other aspects, this "charm" can be turned on purposefully in order to manipulate. If this is the case, the natives will forever be disappointed in the nature of "earthly" relationships. They have an opportunity to realize they have a gift of sensitivity, perhaps some psychic ability, and they can use this to inject hope into the world and be the person that they value in the realm of fantasy, and not use these talents to deceive.

At the square, the native reaches a crisis point in which he/she needs to be held in check as to not become possessed by the idealism or archetypes, and by this becoming disillusioned within the self. For example, a native can feel that their other worldliness and values sets them apart from others...like a lonely spiritual hermit, but this is only a defense mechanism to protect themselves from seeing themselves reflected in others...this is a truth this native does not want to see. They cannot take the fact that perhaps they are just like everybody else and have alot of work to do to reach idealism. SELF HONESTY is the keyword here. The native has perhaps manipulated themselves into thinking that they are the men and women of their fairytales.
This can also go completely the other way, as others are seen to embody this, and thus the native draws relationships that are not what they seem. In this way, they have the ability to be taken by scams that promise them something grand, especially if it is for a "good" or "humane" cause. In time, the native is to learn something about karma...about the fact that their own disillusionment within draws it to themselves without. This is not an easy path to self enlightenment.

When the two planets reach opposition, the height of achievement is to create an expression, perhaps through music, writing or the arts, that allows a free flow of your otherworldly insights and values to come into form. The native can learn much about him/herself by how others are made to feel and are transformed by their work. Eventually it is the native themselves that needs to meditate on the symbols and messages in their own work. This allows them to more deeply understand the type of person they want to embody, and they can work towards their truths rather than being possessed by an extreme example of their truth in archetype form that is impossible to live up to. Incredibly talented and sensitive, Venus/ Neptune opposition natives have the ability to channel an archetype through themselves, using this as a teaching tool for others.
The worst of the opposition is when the native has not assimilated one of the planetary influences, either Venus or Neptune, and embodies one or the other, drawing relationships that may embody the other planet. In this, they perhaps become the kept woman who marries a man in which they fall for all of his idealism, when in reality he is married to multiple women and she becomes a mere pawn in this man's play. This is an embodiment of the Venetian archetype in OPPOSITION to the Neptune archetype. The opposite of this would be the deceptive one of the two. A person possessed by many desires and does not have any idea who they really are. They may be the one that marries multiple partners and sells each of his/her "pawns" on idealistic fantasies that he of course could never deliver on.

Overall, the opposition of these planets is a setup to learn the TRUTH about the SELF by seeing what can happen when one is not fully grounded in themselves and their own sense of values. In this plane of reality, we often either walk with self deception or allow deception to enter our lives because we want so very much to believe in the VALUES that some of our heroic archetypes embody. As humans, we have to embrace fully where we may fall short of these, own up to this and do our best to walk with these values by grounding into our own honesty and integrity.

The strain free aspects such as the sextile and trine of these two planets bring about great creative inspiration and the ability to use this to solve problems, for both the self and humanity at large. The natives are comfortable with being projected upon, for they understand how to take that projection as an opportunity to inspire and encourage higher forms of idealism and expression in others.
The inconjunction must make adjustments between these insights and reality to avoid going to far off the deep end and losing touch with reality, thus drawing deception and or heavy expectations by allowing projection from others to go on too long.

Through the cycle of Venus and Neptune, we maintain a foot inside the living library of all that is was and will be....the records where the archetypes of all of our values and expressions lie. By tapping into these, we are able to understand on a deeper level the patterns that possess us, and through our love and creativity, continue to draw our own image upon the akashic records from which we draw inspiration. What is it that we wish to draw? What we draw will be the values and relationships that our children will draw from in their dreams...finding its way into their writings...their artwork....their fairytales.
