New Moon in Scorpio! ⚡️🌑🦂
This new moon is occurring on November 4th 2021 at 3:14pm mst at 12 degrees Scorpio.
The new moon in Scorpio is about starting anew regarding your emotional pain and letting things go that are holding your psyche hostage. It’s about freeing yourself from the control that comes from pain, remorse, blame, guilt, anger etc. Sometimes looking in the deepest mirror of ourselves doesn’t show us what we want. It’s the part of ourselves that we hide. It can be ugly and hold shame. The place we never show to others. But we have to go that deepest part of self to evolve and grow and heal. However since this new moon is also opposite to Uranus, it means that the more we try to hold on what needs to change, the more it will come out in unforeseen ways. Shocking events or situations could bring out a different side of you that forces you to examine a part of you that you may tend to hide. But it’s all meant to allow for a release so that you can own your fears and not hide from them. Scorpio gives us the courage to go where no one else wants to go in order to transform our darkness into power and healing. No one said it’s easy, but it’s a good time for the deepest part of self reflection and acknowledgment. Also remember to be kind to yourself during this period 🤍

The Venus Signs as Quotes about Love
Aries Venus: “That’s what love is: falling into the jaws of fire.” (Hélène Cixous)
Taurus Venus: “Lately I’ve been thinking about who I want to love, and how I want to love, and why I want to love the way I want to love, and what I need to learn to love that way, and who I need to become to become the kind of love I want to be…and when I break it all down, when I whittle it into a single breath, it essentially comes out like this: Before I die, I want to be somebody’s favorite hiding place, the place they can put everything they know they need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain I will keep it safe. I will keep it safe.” (Andrea Gibson)
Gemini Venus: “Truthfully, this is the fabric of all my fantasies: love shown not by a kiss or a wild look or a careful hand but by a willingness for research. I don’t dream of someone who understands me immediately, who seems to have known me my entire life, who says, ‘I know, me too’. I want someone keen to learn my own strange organization, amazed at what’s revealed; someone who asks, and then what, and then what?” (Elizabeth McCraken)
Cancer Venus: “It isn’t possible to love and part. You will wish that it was. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right: love is eternal.” (E.M.Forster)
Leo Venus: “You came into my life — not as one comes to visit … but as one comes to a kingdom where all the rivers have been waiting for your reflection, all the roads, for your steps.” … “You, who opened suns in my heart,” (Vladimir Nabokov // Alfonsina Storni)
Virgo Venus: “Lie beside me and let the seeing be the healing. No need to hide. No need for either darkness or light. Let me see you as you are.” (Jeanette Winterson)
Libra Venus:  “It’s like this; say there’s a whole room of people and you’re somewhere in the middle of them all. I walk in and I see you, but you don’t suddenly become the only person in the room. God no. You become the room. You are the room.” (Salma Deera)
Scorpio Venus: “Tell me, how does it feel with my teeth in your heart?” (Medea, Euripides)
Sagittarius Venus: “I have been waiting all my life to be with you. My heart slams against my ribs when I think of the slaughtered nights I spent all over the world waiting to feel your touch.” (Henry Rollins)
Capricorn Venus: “Don’t worry. The night won’t frighten me and the cold won’t drive me away. There is no winter as cold as my winter, no night as deep as my night. I myself freeze the wind. I myself darken the sky.” (Dulce María Loynaz)
Aquarius Venus: “In my dreams I am kissing your mouth and you’re whispering ‘where have you been?’ I say, ‘I’ve been lost but I’m here now. You’re the only person who has ever been able to find me.” (Sue Zhao)
Pisces Venus: “But at night I dream of a love so heavy it makes my spine throb – I dream up a lover who makes love like he is separating salt from water.” (Salma Deera)

ICONIC WOMEN AS THE EXPRESSION OF VENUS
“Menelaus, if you are really going to kill her, then my blessing go with you, but you must do it now, before her looks so twist the strings of your heart that they turn your mind; for her eyes are like armies, and where her glances fall, there cities burn, until the dust of their ashes is blown by her sighs. I know her, Menelaus, and so do you. And all those who know her suffer.” — Neil Curry, Euripides: Helen, the Trojan Women, the Bacchae
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
VENUS IN THE 1ST HOUSE: HELEN OF TROY
— LOVE IS MAGNETIC. one look at her and you wonder how far would you go for her (the answer: far. as in, starting a war for her kind of far). if you’re lucky enough, she’ll look back at you, too. you feel like you’ve known her all your life – five minutes and she makes you feel like her best friend, ten and you’re too far gone already. you contemplate running away with her, to keep her for yourself; but she wasn’t made to be kept hidden away, she’s made for all the adoration the world has to offer. her smile is her strength, the way it’s so wide and oozes charm. everyone gets sucked right in into her soft and flirty nature. she portrays herself with such elegance and confidence, you wouldn’t believe it if you saw the scared, insecure girl hiding underneath, all her fears and terrors, the validation she never received as a child. but she’s too strong to let others see it. 
VENUS IN THE 2ND HOUSE: APHRODITE
— LOVE IS CONNIVING. she’s so used to being underestimated. you look at her and you see the face of innocence, of love, beauty and naïvety; before you know it, she has her claws deep in you, seducing you into doing whatever she wants with the same eyes that elicit so much innocence. you give her everything that she wants because she just looks so goddamn happy when she gets it – she looks so good when she’s being spoiled, being given everything that she deserves. her voice is her strength, as dangerous yet vulnerable as a siren, her eyes sparkly and mischievous. she longs for admiration and devotion, loyalty and to claim you as hers… but beware, because she’ll never let you clip her wings and her freedom. you are an addition to her life, not a necessity; all she needs is herself. 
VENUS IN THE 3RD HOUSE: ELIZABETH BENNET (from pride and prejudice)
— LOVE IS STIMULATING. she’s cunning; too cunning, perhaps; with the way her eyes light up before saying something particularly teasing, and you have to wonder if she finds pleasure in your torture, because most times, she leaves you there, speechless and fumbling for words – something, anything that won’t make you sound like such an idiot. but she just laughs, aware of the effect she has on you. her sharp tongue is her strength, and so are her hands, her touch gentle and healing, a contrast between the storm of her personality. she gets everything just by saying the right thing; and that’s where her danger lies, in the mind games she’s able to play without you even noticing. her mind is something otherwordly, her curiosity and imagination, her talent for creating art with her words, her fascination with all that mentally stimulates her. her joyful nature and ability to analyze everything that was left unsaid, making you feel seen in parts of you not even you had noticed about yourself. 
VENUS IN THE 4TH HOUSE: AMY WINEHOUSE
— LOVE IS HOME. through her complex inner world and deep emotions, you’re not sure you’ve ever met someone who can feel like chaos and peace at the same time. she makes you feel nurtured with just the way her eyes crinkle up into a smile, and you’re fascinated with the way she views the world so differently from everyone else. she’s a walking paradox, with as many sharp edges as softness. she inspires love and trust within all those around her, giving them the hope of a better tomorrow even if she sometimes feels unsure as to if that tomorrow truly exists. but she doesn’t know the meaning of the word giving up, however; her inner courage to face the world is her strength and she’s not easily defeated by troubled waters. nostalgia can take over her at times, and so can her overprotectiveness and insecurities… but she’ll rise up stronger than ever when she realizes her worth, and you can only hope you get to make her feel as safe as she does to you. 
VENUS IN THE 5TH HOUSE: MEGAN FOX
— LOVE IS PLAYFUL. the more you chase her, the more she seems to run away from you; you’re terrified of all others who also fight for her affection, for you know she could slip from your fingers at any moment now. still you chase her, like a goddam fool (but we’re all fools in love), and she’s like a siren as she lures you into her games, trying to see what you’re made of, if you could be the one to finally gain a hold of her attention. she makes the most mundane, dull activities feel like a joy, and you’re torn between constant pleasure and pain as you let her unfold you in every possible way. she’s so much, with her talent for getting all eyes on her and her dramatism, but you can be sure that, if she deems you worthy enough to commit to, her loyalty and devotion are unending, her love lifelong. her love for romance has you going on dates that you’ve only ever dreamed of before, and you just know that her charm is her strength. 
VENUS IN THE 6TH HOUSE: MERYL STREEP (yes the milf) 
— LOVE IS MATURE. under her sarcastic and uncaring demeanor is someone who shows their affection through the most unconventional ways that only a few are capable of understanding – the small gestures she makes, her consistency, the way she’ll go above and beyond to make someone feel safe but will threaten to kill them if they do so much as acknowledge it out loud. she can be so supportive of others, and the way she earns the trust and respect of all those around her is her strength, the way everyone knows everything will be okay as soon as she enters the room. she’s observant of details that others wouldn’t even think of noticing, and she has a way of understanding your deepest needs and cravings. she can make you feel known and touched and loved in a way you never even thought possible, making you addicted to the kind of attention no one but her is capable of providing. 
VENUS IN THE 7TH HOUSE: MALÈNA (monica bellucci)
— LOVE IS OVERWHELMING. she’s so used to have everyone falling at her feet, but do they love her or the image they have of her? how could they know her, when sometimes she isn’t even sure that she knows herself? the way she so easily commands respect and admiration is her strength, and you wonder if she ever feels exhausted from being so desired. because truthfully, all she longs for is for someone to be interested not in her looks but in her soul, her capability of loving so hard and profoundly, the way she brings harmony and peace to where once was chaos, her need to explore and to spread positivity and her talents… the way she can be so romantic and with a soul so deep, yearning to unveil all the mysteries to the universe. sometimes, you’re sure that just loving her is the key to all those mysteries. 
VENUS IN THE 8TH HOUSE: MEDUSA
— LOVE IS DEADLY. eyes that can both kill and give life; either way, this is a love that you’ll not escape whole from. when she’s done with you, you’ll feel as if she took a part of your soul with her, and you can’t tell where she ends and where you start. a love that merges two souls together. her eyes are her strength, deep and penetrating. she’s attracted to your darkness, to unveiling the mystery that you are and to solve you like a puzzle as she finds all the secrets you vowed not to tell another living soul. she wants to know every little thing about you. she craves intimacy, and only when you get past her secretive and intimidating front will you get access to her unending kindness and caring for those she loves. she’s so loyal and devoted, but if you ever try to take advantage of that you’ll burn. trust is everything for her. 
VENUS IN THE 9TH HOUSE: MARILYN MONROE 
— LOVE IS AN ADVENTURE. her nature is just so honest and unapologetic, so vibrant and alive, you can’t help throwing yourself headfirst into whatever adventure she has her mind on next; and she’s worse than you on that – her impulsivity has her wearing her heart on her sleeve, living life so intensely as if she’s afraid that it’ll slip right from her hands. her hips and tighs are her strength, and the way she brings fun into every corner of your life. because what is life about if not learning, traveling, exploring new things and expanding our horizons? you’d be a fool to think she has any limits; she’s made of freedom and independence, of her many interests and spontaneity. she loves life and you love her, as you dream of exploring the world by her side, of knowing not only her physical but her mind and soul. 
VENUS IN THE 10TH HOUSE: CLEOPATRA
— LOVE IS POWER. she will find out your biggest fantasy and be what you want; until she has taken everything from you that she so desires, leaving you wondering if you’ve ever truly met her or just one of the facets she shows to the world. she feels otherworldly, portrays herself with such cold air, and you long to be the one to finally feel her warmth, to finally swim past the surface and drown in her depths. but her standards are so high, are you up for the challenge? love with her is filled with power-play, she longs for someone powerful while commanding power herself, someone who can be on her level (few are capable of that). her charm is her strength, the way everyone falls so easily for her words and the image she presents, so confident and provocative; little do they know the overwhelming emotions that hide underneath the coldness. the way she can love so deeply, but will she ever allow herself to?
VENUS IN THE 11TH HOUSE: DAENERYS STORMBORN OF HOUSE TARGARYEN
— LOVE IS FIERY. you fall in love with the way she speaks of saving the world (and you don’t doubt that she will), the light in her eyes even as she holds the weight of the world in her shoulders. you can’t tame her, she’s a bird in the wild whose wings fly too high, so independent and unapologetic. her dreams are her strength, and the way she won’t stop until she makes them a reality – it’s like all the passion in the world has gathered in her heart. she embodies freedom. she has this thing where she can make anyone in the world feel like her best friend, as she unites everyone under the same cause that she believes so deeply in, and you’re so entranced with the love she inspires. you can’t help wanting to fight for her, wanting to help achieve all her dreams as you fall in love with her mind, her interest and her beliefs, too deep in the volcano that she is. 
VENUS IN THE 12TH HOUSE: JULIET (from romeo and juliet)
— LOVE IS FORBIDDEN. from the first moment you met her, it feels like your life suddenly became a movie; like nothing was worth living through or mentioning before your eyes first laid on hers. her love feels star-crossed, as if you’ve waited lifetimes to meet her, with all her complexities and rich inner world that so few get to be a part of. she oozes mystery and secrecy; you long to be the first to discover all her secrets, the chaos that is her life. and she loves hard – so hard, in a way you never even thought possible, and her ability to drown in the depths of her emotions is both her strength and her undoing, for the world is so good in her eyes that she often gets taken advantage of. she’s gotten so hurt in the past, barely healed from all the scars. but you’d be a fool to play with her love, the way she isn’t afraid to give her all. and that takes so much courage.

valentine's day is based on a story about a rebel who kept fighting for social justice (he kept performing marriage rituals cuz he believed that's a human right even tho it was forbidden at some point) and who wrote letters to his long distance friend from jail, letters that were so filled with love it made people announce the day as the day of romance. if that is not aquarius culture, idk what is

What Kind of Love Do You Want?
Aries kind of love - the kind that sweeps you off your feet by the sheer speed of it, the kind that will transform nighttime from a time of sleep to a time of adventures, the kind that will leave you breathless from the aggressiveness, from the unabashed, unfiltered desire and passion it brings, the kind that feels like nobody can ever touch you two
Taurus kind of love - the kind of love full of sensuality, gifts, and romance; where touch is worship and devotion is daily, where you’ll never have to doubt your royalty for there is an unconditionally loyal knight at your feet, the kind of love that is so velvety and soft, like climbing into a king bed, lying on silk sheets in a warm robe, the kind of love that is classic and idolized
Gemini kind of love - the kind of love full of laughter and wit, the kind of laughter where tomorrow has no promise except for one another, where every part of you is matched by your partner, the kind of love with eyes staring at you in endless fascination, the kind of love where you create your very own languages of inside jokes and references; the love that will never suffocate you
Cancer kind of love - the kind of love that is coming home on a long day, the kind of love that’s nuzzling your face into your lovers neck, the kind that is so warm and forgiving and nurturing, the kind that will never turn you away, the kind that soothes all your ailments, that will answer your call at 3 in the morning, a love that you will be grateful your entire lifetime
Leo kind of love - the kind of love that brings the entire sun into your life, the kind of love that makes your heart more full than you could ever imagine that you want to weep from happiness, ‘you and me against the world’ and you believe it, the find-sticky-notes-everywhere kind of love, love that is so encompassing your grandchildren will pray for one of the same
Virgo kind of love - the kind of love of devotion to the tiniest details, the kind where they buy you the gift you mentioned offhandedly eight months ago, the kind of love that brings breakfast in bed without question, the kind that will memorize your favorite way to be stroked on the back, the kind of love that will know you down to the deepest layers of your self
Libra kind of love - the kind of love that they write about in romance novels, the kind of love you don’t think is true until it happens to you, the kind of love that has you dancing in their arms around your kitchen, designer kind of love - high quality, luxurious, and the envy of everyone else, a fair kind of love, interested in preserving harmony of your soul above all
Scorpio kind of love -  the kind of love that brings forth unconscious desires and fulfills them; love that has turned your world upside down since day one, love worth drowning for, worth all the pain in the world for a chance of tomorrow, love that will push you to do what you have never done for anyone else, and will never do again; love you can never escape
Sagittarius kind of love - the kind of love where you never have to be alone in your head again, the do some silly pose in front of the cameras of a rollercoaster kind of love, the kind of love where they would shoot down a star for you, the kind of love that must have some element of mystical, the kind of love that began when the stars were born and will last until they die
Capricorn kind of love - the kind of love that would build you a home with their own hands just so every single one of your dreams was fulfilled, the kind of love that will stand besides you through hell and brimstone, the kind of love that will promise you everything and give it all, the love that is so empowering that even if it ends you never forget how they uplifted you
Aquarius kind of love - the kind of love that makes you believe the entire cosmos can fit in a person, the kind of love where exploration never ends, the kind of love that will force you out of complacency, love that touches you so deeply their imprint lasts for thousands of reincarnations, the kind of love that has no pretenses, that will understand you again and again
Pisces kind of love - the kind of love that will make it impossible for anyone after to follow up, the kind of love that drowns you in honey and kisses, the kind of love you write poetry for and seal the paper with a kiss, love that must have been made by the gods themselves for nothing mortal could have made something so ethereal and encompassing

mercury aspects and learning
The planets that aspect mercury in your natal chart influence how you process and absorb information
The type of aspect determines whether a learning style makes life easier or harder for you. 
For example, a mercury-lilith trine means lilith’s influence helps you learn faster. A square between the two bodies indicates that, although intuition is how you learn best, it is hard to access, leaving you struggling until you clear the block.
Another example- mercury-pluto trine: your obsession yields epiphanies/results; mercury-pluto square: your obsessions are your detriment and often lead no where.
With time and development, any mercury aspect can pave the way to accessing and channeling your inner genius.
mercury conjunct sun: the conjunction is the only possible aspect between mercury and the sun. This might mean your ego plays a role in how you learn. You may easily retain information that specifically applies to you, and take pride in your intelligence. This position can indicate intellectual arrogance.
mercury aspect moon: You are an emotional/intuitive learner. You remember things that elicit an emotional response, or have sentimental value. You may be inconsistent in how you absorb information, communicating everything with ease one day and unable to form a coherent thought the next. Your mental energy comes and goes in cycles.
mercury aspect venus: You may be an auditory learner with some musical talent. You might retain information better if it’s in the form of a song. You learn better by taking notes in different colors, in a calm, beautiful environment. Venus brings ease, beauty, and effortless talent to everything it touches. making this an indicator of a sharp, blessed mind.
mercury aspect mars: You learn by doing. You learn through intense, obsessive, single-minded focus. If a subject excites you or rouses your passion, you will lose yourself in it until it bores you, or until you feel you’ve mastered it. You think, speak, and act impulsively- and might get in trouble for your words.
mercury aspect jupiter: You learn the big picture. You prefer lofty theories and ideals to details and hard facts. You like making generalizations and obscure connections between topics. Jupiter “expands” everything it touches, so this is another indicator of intelligence. Check out the very first post on this blog for the possible implications of mercury aspect (esp. conjunct) jupiter (link). Basically, you might be able to channel information from the universe, if developed.
mercury aspect saturn: You learn slowly. You process information thoroughly, and take time to respond or form conclusions. You might have insecurities about your intelligence, or feel like there’s something “blocking” your mind. You may become a faster learner in later years, and retain mental acuity well into old age.
mercury aspect uranus: You are an independent learner. You don’t like school or learning from teachers. You hate traditional methods. You learn what you feel like learning and come to your own conclusions. You may be prone to sudden epiphanies and flashes of genius. This is another indicator of intelligence. 
mercury aspect neptune: You are an intuitive learner. You like to “feel” the right answer, but can’t explain how you came up with it. You might have gotten in trouble for not showing your work. Like jupiter, neptune helps create a channel for spiritual/universal information. However, neptune either “dissolves” or “elevates” what it touches- making this position a possible blessing or curse.
mercury aspect pluto: You are an obsessive learner. You gain deeper insights into a small number of subjects by thinking about them over and over, for prolonged periods of time. You learn by asking hard questions and not stopping until you get answers. You are excellent at things that interest you, and completely apathetic to things you consider boring. Mercury-pluto people can see things with frightening clarity or be blinded by their emotions and paranoia. Like neptune, this can be extremely good or extremely bad.
mercury aspect lilith: You are wildly creative, unconventional, stubborn, and intuitive. You learn best by allowing your subconscious to guide you. Your mind has a mind of its own, presenting you with unusual, brilliant ideas, but preventing you from grasping numbers and hard concepts. Your difficulty with learning some things (along with supernatural mastery of others) could make you feel alienated from the world. You may have a gift for understanding the mystical/occult, at the expense of being unable to grasp solid, practical subjects.
