“And it was at that age … Poetry arrived
in search of me. I don’t know, I don’t know where
it came from, from winter or a river…
I did not know what to say, my mouth
had no way
with names,
my eyes were blind,
and something started in my soul,
fever or forgotten wings,
and I made my own way,
deciphering
that fire.” Pablo Neruda
“Redeem
The time. Redeem
The unread vision in the higher dream
While jeweled unicorns draw by the gilded hearse.”TS Eliot
This week Venus, the goddess of love and beauty will be aligning with both Jupiter and Neptune. This lightens things considerably from the heavier, more challenging aspects of last week.
In the early part of this week, Venus in Sagittarius will be aligning with Neptune, the planet of dreams. This is an excellent time for creative work as well as spiritual growth. What are your creative aspirations ? This is a good time to muse about them and experiment in the creative realms. Let the pragmatics come later.
In Vedic astrology both Jupiter and Venus are considered benefics – planets that bring good fortune. When they are aligned favorably, as they are throughout this week, this influence brings pleasure, optimism and a sense of abundance. It brings a time when there is more openness to kindness and generosity. This can also add confidence to moving forward with relationships and financial matters. Best to keep pragmatics in the mix in these areas with the influence of Neptune.
One of the Sabian symbols for this time is,”A bluebird, a sign of good luck and happiness, is standing at the door of a house.”
