“It’s his heart I want! All those little girls with no education will not take it from me. I would not be so calm if I saw some pretty woman of the court or the capital trying to conquer it.”

“Her decision was made; she would defend herself without pity and without scruples. From now on her life would be, as she was to say, ‘a perpetual combat.’.  From Madame De Pompadour, Mistress of France.

Venus is in Aries, the sign of Mars and with Mars flamboyantly out of action.

How does Venus go in Aries?

Well, respect is a big deal, of course & the reading material is less likely to be some self-help book and more likely Sun Tzu’s Art Of War…especially Part Three: Attack By Stratagem.

Venus in Aries is the iron fist in the velvet glove, every single trick in the book employed to bring about the fulfilment of her desires & you are either with her or else you are against her.

Beauty-wise, Venus in Aries is about the power of the overtly sexual image. Nothing subtle. The strategy is shock and awe.  In settled relationships where a woman is not getting that much attention, Venus in Aries wreaks havoc. There is a need for not so much attention as worship.

High maintenance? You betcha. And it’s until the end of March which is when Venus will move on to plough the more tranquil fields of Taurus.


He’s been apparently blissfully married for years but a new biography out claims major Seventies star Warren Beatty had over 12,000 lovers – not counting the “casual gropes”etc. He essentially averaged a woman a day for 35 years. Legendarily insatiable, gorgeous and vain but NOT a Leo, lol.  His astro is actually really interesting & illuminating as to what sort of (astrological) equipment a pantsman could actually have…

He’s said to be 28 Virgo Rising but i reckon that’s bogus. He LOOKS like absolutely Libra Rising to me, cupid’s bow & goo-goo eyes and all. He’d only have to have been born half an hour or so later to be Libra Rising. And that would mean this annoying book (for him) would be coming out with Saturn on his Ascendent…makes total sense.

He’s an Aries – Sun conjunct Mercury in Aries so bigmouth the great & tres cocky.  Mars is in Saggo – that’s a very youthful, enthusiastic and gung-ho sort of a Mars. He’d bound off after the deed, friendly & no angst what-so-ever. No games. Extreme candour.

But the really cool bit is this: Moon in Scorpio conjunct Lilith opposite Venus conjunct Uranus in Taurus and they’re all aspected by Pluto. Not only insatiable but inventive too and not even a  hint of a Madonna-Whore complex. How there be with Moon conjunct Lilith??? Venus-Uranus in a hetero-guy is the gift to act as sort of a muse to individuated or eccentric women.

I think that with heartbreak, just like childbirth, that you forget the pain….

True, False or Way, WAY too complicated for such a trite simplification?

And, I mean the heartbreak of a romance ending or even just thwarted lust, not heartbreak resulting from atrocity or tragedy.

Then again, I have Venus (heart, love, romance) in Mutable Pisces so maybe THAT does the trick?  Whereas Venus in – say – Kataka might not only not forget but actually double-back to poke at the bruise a bit. Venus in Aries probably wouldn’t even admit that there WAS a break or a bruise. Venus in Taurus would have the whole thing documented.

There would SO be a paper trail with blame properly apportioned and stuff divvied  up…These are just off the top of my head. Please don’t take offence or nark off at me that your Venus sign is demonstrably the sanest bit of planetary woo-woo this side of the Milky Way.

Okay – your Venus Sign and whether you think heartbreak is like childbirth and that you forget the pain…Or NOT.

As mentioned in the Scopes & Daily Mystic, certain types of control-freaky people are bound to irk this week. It’s to do with good old fixed squares from Venus in Taurus to the stuff in Aquarius.

And then Mars tromps along next week and does the same thing. All during Eclipse Season and as Uranus stations Retro. It is the latter that’s the most likely to inspire a potentially bats-but-not-in-a-good-way impulse.

So should  you suddenly think YES & be on the blower to Acme a la Wile E Coyote, think again please. Wait out the Eclipse Season. That’s till July 22. Or at least till Mars skips into Gemini on July 12.

The Moon means One thing…at least this Moon does – it is in Libra, waxing to be Full (an Eclipse on july 7) and making a mysterious aspect to Venus – the Love Goddess – in Taurus, the sign she rules along with Libra…Flowers for you, flowers for your loved one, flowers for a friend rewarded and random flowers to another who would least expect them bring manifest Venusian Blessings…Venusian type peeps are also SUPER scent-aware at the moment – heaven for flowers, perfume and essential oils..being sensual, whatevs – vile for if you have to inhale noxious toxic air ‘freshener’ shit. One more thing that’s awesome with this Moon-Venusian synergy: Psychic hits via smell. Try it & see. SMELL & see. Pheromones signal the brain’s intention, don’t they?

Mmmm and the Moon is in antsy old Aries until the morning of Thursday in Los Angeles & New York, mid-arvo Thurs in London and just after midnight so very early Friday AM in Sydney.

Tetchy, ambitious & energy to burn but soooo frustrated at things that don’t move quick enough…which they just damn well WON’T during a Dark Moon and with Mars sludging along in Taurus, waiting for Venus to catch up and the party to start. But the Moon in Aries does not give a fuq about any of that; Moon in Aries wants action – now, cut-through – within the next five minutes and to outwit/outlive/out-think/out perform and out everything all those who have ever dissed her/him.

You need to channel the Ramzilla vibe correctly or elst you WILL start bitching it up. Frenetic physical activity, cleaning, working, martial arts, saving people, sex if you are not too bad tempered, striding along furiously toting up the peeps who diss you & typing definitive No-More missives of shit.

“Now the Indian term for ‘illusion’, maya -from the verbal root ma, ‘to measure out, to form, to create, construct, exhibit or display’ – refers to both the power that creates an illusion and the false display itself.

The art of a magician, for example, is maya; so too the illusion he creates. The arts of the military strategist, the merchant, actor and thief: these also are maya. Maya is experienced as fascination, charm, specifically, feminine charm. And to this point there is a Buddhist saying: “Of all the forms of maya, that of woman is supreme.” ”

Le Bouddhisme, Louis de la Vallee-Poussin, 1909

Especially when Venus in the sign of her Dignity – Taurus – meets Mars in his Detriment. Ie: Mars is a co-ruler of Scorpio and so in the opposite sign to Scorp he not so well placed. But Venus a.k.a. the feminine force is powerful. Big seduction weekend if you’re up for it.  Arty too. Major primal lust-for-life force & super hi-Qi despite the Dark Moon.

We Are The Fury

Venus is stationing Retro. That means She is now at the degree whence she turns Retro this Saturday the 7th of March. Until April 23. And note, btw, that the Love Goddess also makes a lazy trine to the Leo South Node.

My point: If your mind is meandering back to ye olde lovers and past romantic lives, it is apt!  And if your instincts are to play it real-slow with relationship decisions now, even biz partnerships that’s apt too.  See the posts tagged Venus or Venusian Bats for more.  But – yes – as Venus stations – that retrospective wallow/analysis/flash-nostalgia is normal. So – use it.

The retro is in Aries so it’s supposed to be positive.  This ain’t some drippy Watery Venus astro-passage. Also, the time/space you selfishly so want right will help you seem less-needy & controlling. You can go back to narking off in Ikea once Venus is in Taurus mid-year. Have fun looking backwards…
