Venus sextile Neptune Archives - Lynn Hayes astrology readings and writings

Astrological update for the week of January 3, 2022 – A bit of planetary R&R

I may have neglected to mention last week that yesterday’s Capricorn New Moon was a SuperMoon, and today here on the East Coast of the US we are enjoying the meteorological effects. We are under a heavy influence of Saturn currently – not only do we have the waning energies of the Saturn-ruled Capricorn New Moon, but six planetary bodies are ruled by Saturn right now: Sun, Venus, Moon and Pluto in Capricorn, and Mercury in Aquarius along with Saturn itself. Saturn demands accountability and […]

Weekend update June 12-13, 2021: The Venus effect, and a mystical Sunday

Venus is very active all weekend which is a good thing because the energies are building, as they have been for the past few weeks, for the second phase of the challenging square from Saturn to Uranus. Venus governs all dimensions of attraction and pleasure, and even her challenging aspects are not that difficult. On Saturday Venus, in Cancer where we tend to be more sensitive and emotional in our interactions with others, forms a square aspect to Chiron which can have an effect of bringing out our most noble […]

Weekend update May 1, 2021: The wisdom of creative inspiration

from the Star Tarot

This weekend brings an abundance of beautifully unfolding planetary energies to help ground our biggest and most imaginative ideas into a solid foundation. The Moon is in Capricorn until Sunday afternoon EDT/Sunday night GMT, facilitating practicality and the organization of dreams into reality. On Saturday there are no exact alignments, enabling the Moon to fulfill its Capricornian mission of structuring of our wishes into plans. Four planets in Taurus plus the waning Capricorn Moon offers an exceptionally time of grounded Earth energy – perfect for […]

1.23.21 A day of creative inspiration and grounded centering

art by Holly Sierra

Huzzah!! With the end of the square from Mars (action and aggression) to Jupiter (expansion and acceleration), the intense cycle of Mars aspecting Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus over the past few weeks is at an end. I don’t know about you, but I intend to take a nap. 😀

Today we have a beautiful sextile from Venus (beauty and love) to Neptune (creativity and spirituality) which will help us to slip a little more easily out of the constraints of modern life and bring a […]

Sunday Poetry from Mary Oliver for Jupiter square Chiron

Photography by Marianne McCann

Wild Geese

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the […]

Libra Full Moon today, March 29

Venus rules today under the Libra Full Moon which culminates at 10:25 pm Eastern time. When the Moon is full, the light of our emotional interior as described by the Moon is more powerful than the light of the conscious mind as represented by the Sun, and there is a culmination of our hopes, dreams and desires. In Libra the Moon craves partnership, balance and harmony. There is a longing here for integration and a need for connection and peace.

The Libra Full Moon is opposite the Aries […]

A week of Venus

art from occultopedia

Venus rules the skies this week.

Venus is the goddess of love and beauty, and her namesake planet presides over all things relating to interpersonal relationships, the force of attraction, aesthetics, values, sensuality, self-indulgence, harmony and balance. As Venus transits through the sky it is barely noticeable to us because it moves so quickly and its effect is so mild.

In its role in the governance of attraction, Venus is involved in matters of wealth and prosperity. Last week Venus made a square to Saturn (exact on the 6th) […]
