May

20

Prior to the transit across the Sun, Venus turned retrograde on May 15th and then squares Mars on June 4. Venus lives in the sign of the Twins, Gemini, during all of this activity. This combination makes for a combustible, emotional time that will have a profound impact on the days and weeks ahead.


Relationships on all levels will take on an added serious tone. Given the duplicitous nature of Gemini, we can expect several events, particularlyin the political and financial arenas, to appear to be one thing and then, unexpectedly, be revealed to be something entirely different. This is definitely not a good time to invest or to believe the pundits as they will be as confused as the rest of us. Romance is going to take a hit as well. Remember that ‘bright and shiny’ does not always equal quality. Expect a scandal or two to shake things up right around June 1st.


There is a sense of fate that will come into play as the result of a significant world event, whether that is the start of a conflict, or a dramatic geological or meteorological occurrence (volcano, earthquake or hurricane or some combination) is not clear. It will seem as if a ghost of the past has returned to haunt us in the present. The second week of June could be an important one, both here and abroad.


It should also be mentioned that on June 4th, in addition to the square with Mars, the Goddess of Love will be impacted by a total Lunar Eclipse and Neptune, the Sea God, also going backwards and bringing that energy to the party as well. There is an irony to this as at least one legend of Aphrodite/Venus’ birth is that she rose full grown from the sea foam. As she starts her new cycle, an astrological rebirth if you will, she does so as the Neptune, Lord of the Sea begins a reward dance into retrograde motion.


The possibility of violence, emotional and physical, is extremely high during the period of June 1st through the 8th. The world will be shaken and perhaps awakened by events that week which could well determine a course of action throughout the summer. This is certainly a time to take stock of what matters, and more importantly, what does not matter. Negotiations will flounder and matters that were swept under the carpet of the past will push forward and demand a resolution one way or another.


The Mayans understood the power that a Venus transit could bring to the table. Using their skills as astrologers and astronomers, they applied what is known as ‘electional astrology’ to determine the best time for events. Understanding the potential impact of the upcoming transit of June 6th, we, too, can prepare ourselves, emotionally and psychically, at the very least for the kind of profound events which this aspect could herald.


Ultimately, how we deal with these events will determine the path forward. As the Sage wrote: “The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in our stars, but with ourselves”. For those who do professional psychic readings and astrology charts, this is a time that we may all remember.
