When thinking of Venus, the concept that often comes to mind is the process of valuation.  This is all about assigning worth to something within the context of the environment in which it exists.  In a common sense, valuation is often associated with property.  But with Venus in consideration, this context of assessing value and worth is more about what brings comfort to one’s life and joy to one’s heart.  This is a very personal sense of value and worth that each individual holds dear.

The Karmic Tools Weekly Forecast covers the current planetary transits which affect people in different ways and to various degrees of intensity.  Take notice when it is a Personal planet (Sun / Moon / Mercury / Venus / Mars) interacting with a Social (Jupiter/Saturn) or Collective planet (Uranus / Neptune/Pluto).  And pay extremely close attention when it is a Social planet interacting with a Collective planet because that means something *big* is brewing that will move large groups of people along their evolutionary paths. Tun

Each new year represents a clean slate and a time to create course corrections to those areas in our lives that aren’t meeting our expectations.  This is why we create things like new year’s resolutions and create promises to make this upcoming calendar year better than the last.  Whereas these intentions are great, there is at times a reluctance to implement these changes in our lives because it typically represents moving out of our comfort zone. 

The New Moon in Aquarius on February 4 also corresponds with the Chinese New Year of the Pig, which runs from February 5, 2019, until next year’s New Moon in Aquarius on January 24, 2020. The Year of the Pig portends your potential to indulge in fantasy or to impose the rigors of reality on your life. Try to make this year one where you balance between the two extremes.

This week we have Jupiter and Venus coming conjunct to the exact degree in the sign of Sagittarius.  I will discuss how these two planets interact both individually and together and what this can indicate.  I’ll also cast it in the light of the eclipse that is taking place this Sunday, January 20.

Upcoming Eclipse on January 20^th – 21^st

Wait - What’s Going On?

It is a busy time for Capricorn, indeed, and there are no signs of slowing down either.  In fact, we just had a partial solar eclipse involving the signs of Capricorn and Cancer last week.  This week we have Mercury entering into Capricorn to join the crowd of Sun, Saturn, and Ketu.  With Mercury joining the fray it adds another dimension to the ongoing theme I’ve been discussing.  Being that we have a full solar eclipse looming in the coming weeks, I’ll

In previous articles, I have touched on the conjunction of Sun and Saturn and the possible effects that come with this conjunction.  However, I didn’t give much information on the special context as to why this is the case.  Saturn and the Sun have a special relationship.  Before I mentioned that they were mutual enemies, in regards to what in Vedic Astrology we call the natural relationships of the planets, but I didn’t get into their special familial dynamic that is revealed through their shared mythology.
