This Venus retrograde coming up from December 19th until January 30th is bringing in a somber, re-orienting, reviewing, rethinking energy.
Since Venus is moving through the sign of Capricorn, and there have been quite a hefty amount of planets making massive transits through Capricorn…
And the sign of Capricorn can be looked at several different ways. Ruled by Saturn, Capricorn tends to be preoccupied as an archetype with things that are worldly: business contracts, institutions, power, corruption, money/finance and our individual relationship to each of these things. How we feel about each of these depends upon our charts, whether or not we consciously or unconsciously seek out power, whether or not we consciously or unconsciously give it away. I feel that these Capricorn transits have brought up a LOT of different things.
Pluto came into Capricorn in 2008, when we had the financial crisis & housing market crash. As usual, the bigger banks were bailed out and the burden of this fell most on the “little people” and unfortunately I anticipate some extreme instability in the coming months in the US financial system and as a result of that, the worlds. On a personal level, these Capricorn transits I’m describing is pushing us to confront, deconstruct and face up to our relationship to some of these institutions we have empowered.
I’m definitely not an investor or someone who knows much of anything about money, but I do know that the money printer going brrr is at the very least leading us into some kind of hyperinflation/currency devaluation, so I think it’s important to be prepared for anything coming into the first four months of next year :)
Saturn & Pluto conjoined on January 12th of 2020, which opens up a 33 year long cycle! The last of these Saturn-Pluto cycles happened in Libra (1982) and we can see collectively the implications of this 33 year long cycle… Saturn and Pluto coming together is radical transformation, deconstruction, sometimes the change we don’t want… and almost always comes with some strange plague, of sorts.
The Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Libra in 1982 kicked off the HIV crisis (and there are many parallels between this and our current situation) and also during the years prior to 2020, we received out of this transit things like increased divorce rates (as Libra has to do with relationships, other people) and the more mainstream rise of relationship concepts like polyamory, in addition to online dating which led into tinder, bumble, and a lot of people choosing to meet their romantic potentials online perhaps rather than in person.
This is just one example of how a longer cycle of this kind can mature over time.
So, this January 12th, 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction IS evolving over time. This, in my opinion, brought an onslaught of top-down decrees and edicts, in addition to an engineered virus. (A lot more viruses than Rona have been engineered!) The concepts of the conqueror/conquered, colonizer/colonized, are coming up again with the Great Reset.
This is not nearly the first, though arguably the lamest, reset we have seen as a race. These resets in my eyes are the deepest trauma that lifetimes of work have actually been trying to reach, healing the wounding that came from our prior iterations of them (assuming we’ve been in the rinse-repeat cycle for a while, like yours truly). And I actually do believe that this Saturn-Pluto conjunction was a huge domino, a huge marker, in the process of what this reset is shaping up to be.
So in addition to the stress of an actual virus, fear porn news and frequency disturbances there’s this underlying trauma that is not yet resolved that begins to stir in folks when this “reordering” event happens in society, because on a cellular level, people who have lived through something like this before know what that means.
And what tends to happen when people start to stir in that way varies tremendously based on each person, their astrology…
However, it seems like there are some people that are hell bent on going right into it, whatever it is, experiencing all the pain that comes along with it, using it as a platform for which to evolve, consciously.
It also seems like many are turning a blind eye and scapegoating/gaslighting the legitimate concerns folks have, the legitimate questions, as happens repeatedly throughout history in ways that allows history to consistently repeat.
It was these types of behaviors/patterns in our micro relationships from 1982-2020 that we were learning to recognize. The narcissistic/empath dynamic, the codependent/addict dynamic… all of the different loops and sub-loops we can get into in our relationships, where they come from and why. The invitation was there to boldly face that, and still is.
Though, the invitation has shifted and changed to the “stuff” of Capricorn ~ geopolitics, finances, control, power, greed… it’s like “monopoly” as much as people wish “capitalism” or whatever bastardized version of that we have now is somehow magically disappearing instead of becoming a bit more predatory.
In our personal lives, the Saturn-Pluto conjunction has served as quite a deconstruction in whatever house Capricorn is in our chart. This area has been absolutely blasted in the last several years. Really, the Capricorn part of our chart has been long-term challenged since Uranus (1988 - 1995) and Neptune (1984 - 1998) moved through there, where they conjoined and moved alongside each other from roughly 1990 - 1996. They came extremely close in 1992, the year that 178 nations met in Brazil as part of the UN and other multilateral organizations to discuss their plan for the 21st century, known as “Agenda 21.”
Uranus is the unexpected, the unplanned, the chaotic. Neptune is illusory, obfuscating, veiled… and so these planets being together in Capricorn ( not too far from where Saturn and Pluto connected) during this time does ping me as significant and a tie-in to where we are now. Saturn also moved into Aquarius from 1991-1994, so it’s important to carefully examine the events that happened during this time to get a glimpse into where we are going, or being suggested to go.
The people born during this time, myself being one of them, have somewhat of an Armageddon software already installed and loaded, ready to go. We have been bombarded with images of a scorched earth, there was the adjustment to the childhood vaccination schedule that significantly increased the amount of injections for children… and the television that was being broadcast at that time (this comes mostly from my intuition as does most of the stuff listed in this blog, as it is mine) was full of extremely dense subliminals and sigils that were enough to disconnect most from their spirit and their imagination, from jump. Almost like with more spiritual gas, power, potential came with it an increased level of bullshit.
I honestly believe this is because this generation, specifically the people born in that 1990-1996 window, are actually pivotal in this time right now. Uranus-Neptune conjunction generation comes with natural abilities that could take down this whole artifice right here and now. SO with that greater access comes a greater level of fuckery.
As much as I think the “illuminated” organizations have this arrogant notion that they can control pretty much anything… I don’t actually believe they can control their own undoing. I don’t believe anyone can.
So these Capricorn flashbacks from 1984-1998, in addition to the Pluto in Capricorn transit that has been swinging a wrecking ball right through our reverence to any of these institutions, entities and authorities and that being taken up several notches with Saturn’s transit through Capricorn from December of 2017 - March 2020, and then June 2020 - December 2020.
In April, Jupiter and Pluto connected in Capricorn as well… and then again in June. And then again in November.
Jupiter has to do with our beliefs, our felt sense of luck, abundance, positivity… so with Jupiter moving through Sagittarius in 2019, there definitely was a lot of room to fall as Jupiter feels *so* at home in Sagittarius where it can bless everyone and be suuuper expansive, open people to spiritual ideas. It was quite a time when Jupiter was moving through Sagittarius!
And so in 2020 when Jupiter went into Capricorn a lot of people were kind of like… well, fuck. Turns out we can’t have spiritual utopia dreamtimeland all of the time. ;)
And then with Jupiter in Capricorn, making these conjunctions to Pluto… feels distinctly like creepy backdoor contracts, expansion of manipulation and narcissism, expansion of bullshit.
And honestly the last time that Jupiter and Pluto conjoined it was in Sagittarius right before Pluto moved into Capricorn in 2008… so there was this distinct signature of optimism, perpetual (unsustainable) growth and then a collapse.
Where Jupiter and Pluto connecting in April, June, November was really ensnaring people is in their belief systems… there was a very clear rewriting of narratives last year and this year (and to continue with this 13-14 year long Jupiter-Pluto cycle!) and with the South Node in Sagittarius… there has been an attempt to create a new priest class (doctors) and a new religion (science or scientism).
And this ideology has kind of incepted everyone’s mind in some way or another… and in a way that isn’t obvious to everyone. Pluto has to do with what is hidden, what is occulted, so all of these actions that we’re taking, irrespective of how you feel about them, like masking and vaccinations, have a ritual component or a symbolic, occult component (connected to depersonalization, possession, and “alchemy” / transformation which connects in with transhumanism, gene editing, crispr technology, and ultimately~ vaccinomics: the personal vaccines for you and your whole family…) and a new economic system, medical system, educational system… you name it.. if it’s an institution it is undergoing a change to a more automated, artificial way of being. That’s what these egregious mandates that folks are supporting are actually promoting. Science is so massively at odds with nature… and I assume that next year we will begin to see the physical implications of that, on our earth and in our bodies.
So even though it may not look like it right away, what we are experiencing and the division that is playing out is a creation of a new race of human, human 2.0, that is actually a bit more cybernetic and wired up to technology than we are already (if you can believe that!). So like the transition from the prior version of human to todays human… not that I give ANY credence to “evolution” or humans evolving from monkeys or animals.
This is the 20 year cycle that is playing out with the “great conjunction” of Saturn and Jupiter on December 21st, 2020. We’ll begin to see way more augmented reality, virtual reality and the attempt is there to make us a bit more robotic, less human (messy emotions!).
So back to this Venus retrograde. Why did I bring ALL of this up? Well, context is important. Personal context so too is important to be able to frame what is currently happening, because this retrograde in my opinion is one of the most significant Venus retrogrades of our lives, especially for those of us in the US.
Because these transits that date back into the 80s and really hundreds of years, as the last time there was this type of mega-conjunction in Capricorn it was in 1582-1583 at the introduction of the gregorian calendar and linear time for humanity… so this idea of being enslaved into time or trapped in a form of linear time is something that definitely comes up around these Capricornian transits and their themes. If humanity is in some kind of matrix-like machine, then part of what is holding us to that are concepts like “time” and “space” that may not exist in the same way… elsewhere. ;)
I don’t know about you, but I’ve personally had much harder of a time staying connected to the construct of linear time lately. I’ve had way more access to time as a multilayered and multidirectional experience. Makes me wonder a lot of the End of Days prophets are onto something… and that perhaps what we’re experiencing that is contributing to the overall chaos in a greater way is the breakdown of time… altogether… the natural singularity. We wouldn’t really know if we were in that, would we? :)
So all of these transits that have occurred in our lives are actually very significant, not random, not by accident or coincidence.
And this Venus retrograde from December 19th (today) until January 30th sweeps back over that whole space… until the 12th degree of Capricorn which is where it will station direct.
Venus has been conjoining Pluto and will station direct in a direct conjunction with it… so we’re very much meeting all of these greater themes how they have woven their way into our lives.
How do we deal with authority? How do we feel when we have a boot on our face? What needs to change in our positioning so that we can get into a better space for whatever this all is? Where are we still leaking, giving our power away? This is a process of reclamation for some and a total loss of inner fire for some and a Great Stagnation for some… we all have own own personal consciousness, agreements, contracts and ways that we are walking through this time, that I do believe can be edited, changed, deleted, transmuted and that arguably that is the whole entire point of this time.
There’s also this thread of self-preservation, having to make tough choices that I also find associated with Capricorn… choices that can feel like non-choices or even non-obvious choices, with the simultaneous Aquarius energy that is taking place through Saturn.
When Venus stations direct, it will move together with Mars (!!) to conjunct the US Pluto return and move right over all of the late degrees that these intense conjunctions last year. So during this retrograde it’s so important that we review things, release things, so that we can really build ourselves up and whatever house Capricorn is in our personal charts come February and March, as Venus exits shadow and moves with Mars into Aquarius, over the same degree that Saturn and Jupiter conjoined… so we may experience through this echo some of the same themes that came up November-December 2020. Really great for our souls evolution in my opinion ~ may feel a little bit like having to really rise to the occasion on multiple levels.
