I just want to share with everyone that I've found the perfect way to celebrate my 4th house Venus in Leo (conjunct North Node/Part of Fortune).
I'm dressing up as Mother Christmas for the children at the centre where I work - we have 3 parties, all with about 20 under-5s. It's going to be huge fun and I've got a fantastic costume and a sack full of presents! I can't wait!
It fulfils everything for this placement - acting (Leo) the part of a mother (4th) in a nurturing and loving environment (Venus, and the 4th), for children (Leo) - and having fun (Leo too!)
How great is that?

Beautiful! I love the synchronicity. The fourth, the IC (the I don't see you!) is one of the most hidden areas of the chart. We don't often really get to express it (to Venus and Leo's dismay!) You are going to have to wonderful repercussions from this experience. Whenever we become MORE of who we are, even for a few hours, the universe answers in kind.
Is Mars transiting there now? Perhaps that's helped swing you into action?

Hi Kim - yes, Mars is transiting there! I volunteered for this!
I love the "IC - I don't see you" image - I think people are beginning to see that in me now. I'm very conscious of showing the 10th house Saturn image but I'm consciously letting out more of the Venus side and people do respond so positively to it.

Thank you airedale - if I'm very brave I'll post a photo. I should be though - this is Venus in Leo we're talking about ...!
I think the children - and adults - are going to have a wonderful time next week. Three of my colleagues are dressing as elves, we've decorated the playroom with snowflakes, so we're all in the spirit. It'll be the acting performance of my life!!
I've got Cancer on the IC, not Leo, so my sun sign qualities are often hidden from people. I keep the "homebody" side quite well hidden, or maybe not as well as I think! I'm certain it's showing more now, working with children, than it's ever done before. And it's a need I've never really acknowledged until recently.

Been thinking about this a lot. Perhaps because Venus is coming out at last!  Venus in Leo is a showgirl - and yet in the past I've almost had to be dragged out of the house to socialise. I hated parties as a child - still not keen on them - and I've been known to manifest things to avoid going, even with people I know and like. I managed to bang my head a few days before a work friend's hen night, and then didn't go. A lot of this has had to do with the Saturn opposition in the 10th - terrified of embarrassment.  Venus came out all by herself once - when I was on holiday - and I shut her away again. I'd woken up full of sparkle - no other way to describe it - and dressed in a purple top which really suits me, put beautiful jewellery on, and went downstairs and shone at breakfast time in the hotel. I gazed into a lovely man's eyes and didn't let go until he did. And then what happened? I got scared, and ran away from whatever might have been there, and locked Venus away again. But now that Venus and Saturn are coming more into balance, I'm finding that I don't need to be scared. I can let my light shine. Walking into town yesterday, to a sound healing session, I had a sudden realisation. I'm surrounded by dozens of beautiful, vibrant, talented women. None of whom seem to be afraid to let their light shine. Friends - those I've known for years, those I've recently made at work, and those I've made online and am yet to meet - family, women who use the centre where I work. And those who are part of a spiritual healing circle, who do reiki, sound healing and colour therapy. And then I thought, hang on, I'm one of them too. I'm PART of that group, not standing apart from it watching in envy. And it's wonderful. And that's when I realised that Venus and Saturn are now in balance, and Venus isn't cowering away anymore, scared to come out. Saturn has its place - I'm still very keen to present a professional, organised image - but I'm not scared to let the showgirl show her face from time to time and when it IS appropriate, to party! ;D |
