My best friend doesn't know anything about astrology, and yesterday she and her ex kissed passionately. It came out of the blue, she told me. They divorced twelve years ago because he had an addiction then. She's happily shaken up right now, and whatever may happen next, it did her a world of good to kiss and be kissed by him since she's been in unrequited loves ever since.

Wonderful! Speaking of wonderful. D finally got through to me this morning and we talked on the phone via the Internet for almost an hour. He is safe and I am happy. By the way, it is D's b'day today. But I feel like I am the one that got the gift! ;D We begin again! Aphrodite

I love these Venus Rx stories! I have a friend who has been contacted by three ex boy friends in the last two days! It seems that if there is something incomplete--if there is more to go or perhaps just something to let go--now is when it's going to happen!

Not sure I want to be contacted by at least one of my ex's ..! Although it would be good to let go completely. With us both being Cancerians, I'm not sure that happened.
The way Venus Rx is manifesting for me - at the moment anyway - is a strong reassessement of my self-worth, I'm looking back at the way I'm treated when I offer love to others. I give so much, and from some, I get nothing back. I decided - at last - that I'm worth the depth of love I give out. I got furiously angry on Saturday - in private - about my treatment by one long-standing friend who never returns calls, emails or letters but sucks up all the love other people can give her. Perhaps I was more angry at myself for putting up with it for so long. (That could also have been Mars entering my 11th house!)

Ariesmoon! This is terrific! that I'm worth the depth of love I give out! So true and I am finding Venus retrograde is about self-worth as well. It's a good time to do some 'worthiness scripting'. Write down 'I am worthy of ............' and fill in the blank. I am worthy of companionship. I am worthy of true love. I am worthy of success. I am worthy of perception. I am worthy of accomplishment. I am worthy of security. I am worthy of happiness. I am worthy of . . . You get the idea! (It feels so good to write or type these, it's hard to stop. Do a page a night for a week and let me know what's shifted. This is such a powerful time to change the way we think about ourselves and amp up the self-love and respect. The universe can only treat us as well as we treat ourselves, as well as we believe we deserve. Anyone else? When you tune in, do you feel worthy of everything you desire, right here right now? Kim

The Wiskey and the affirmations arent working anymore. (wink)
Of course I dont imbibe much in alcohol (what with a Sun-Venus opposed by Neptune...yeah like alcoholic city if I give in to the siren song of escapism)
I hear what you're saying. I wonder if there had been alot less deaths in world war 11 if Hitler had told himselves such things. Of course Hitler had a Saturn midheaven so his way of peace of mind is controlling and having authority over the world. WE all know how badly that turned out and for the german people that gave up that control to such a man.
Ironically Hitler was an artist of some sort and was shunned by the general Austrian artistic crowd. When he was in Austria. NOBODY liked him and they thought he wasnt like German or nordic enough. The rest is history. Hitler was really big on blonde haired people and identified keenly with racial hertiage and genetic lineage. With that destructive Saturn Pluto hatred of other races. Although Hitler was a product of his time and he is a classical example of "The love of Power"
I suppose affirmations couldnt hurt.
Definitely having Venus issues. I have such an overpowered and afflicted Venus from Uranus and Neptune..combasted by a conjunction to a doubly exalted sun in aries 5th house.
I've actually been one of those hero types who saves the day and rides off the sunset. I've actually stopped a group of guys from attacking a pretty woman...in a deserted beach. I mean I did look a little bit like yoda with all his fighting skills...with my big walking stick. Took one look at me and they high tailed it out there. Woman thanks me for being there....I simply said "It was nothing" ... "you should carry some mace and you are very pretty it might not be a good idea to be alone scantily cladded in a deserted beach!" Then bid farewell.
That dramatic 5th house sun. cant help feeling like I'm in some movie where if you wish then all your dreams will come true. a person sings and a 40 piece orchestra starts playing sickenly sweet in the background. 5th house venus..wish it didnt make me so insistent on having crushes on the absolutely prettiest girl in school, or the prettiest woman in town thing. wish I was more creative as far as songwriting.
Happy charting

Thanks Kim - I've started and I'm on my second list tonight. I'll definitely report back! I had such a lovely compliment today by someone at my new workplace - that I "emit happiness". I can't say how much that boosted my self worth!

Well, Aries Rx just brought back the last man I was interested in! We'd had three lovely dates before Christmas, then an ex-gf of his showed up and he had to get his feeling untangled. (We have something like 30 aspects in synastry, so I was kinda thinking we might be together again. Whether that means it will work out is another thing, of course!)
Here's a question maybe Kim could answer: What do you think of the Venus Rx stationing at 29 Pisces, just shy of the Aries Point? Does it still count as conjunct the Aries Point if it's 29 Pisces? And do you think that's a significant point to station at? (I'm also curious because my Eros is 0.40 Aries!)

Venus retrograde in or near O degrees Aries is huge for me. Have a Juno near O degrees Aries. lately romance and such and even marriage prospects have been just crazy. I've had to revise my list and wondering if it'll ever happen.
BTW I havent ever been married although I was in a relationship with a lady for 2 and half years..which resulted in one child. That relationship kind of just fizzled..and its just an indifferent platonic friendship. That relationship was long over since 1991. although the friendship with her is good...she needs my help since she's become Diabetic and having trouble walking and such. got that Ceres conjunct Mercury so I think to be nurturing and understanding with handicapped or crippled people with crippled bodies and minds.
Maybe that retro Venus will break an impasse on the romantic front. My poor venus just gets squashed by my Male Aries Sun. I've got a huge fear of X chromosome contamination...like even touching a purse or the door handle of a wimmen's restroom...is like Yicky.
I think that combast Venus that is heavily afflicted by uranus, neptune is signifcant since relationships with the opposite sex are so temporal and changable. HOWEVER I still believe that love and marriage will come through for me. Hope springs eternal

Hey AM,
Why are we just hearing that you have a child? And a teenager too? How active are you in his/her life? what is your relationship with said offspring? I have another question, and I hope it is not too inflammatory but as one Aries to another (almost a cosmic twin), I feel that we are possibly close enough chart wise for you to be able to get and answer these questions:
1. Have you ever considered that you are the one common denominator in all of your experiences with all of these various people? 2. How closely have you examined the planet Neptune and the way you manifest it's myriad energies? 3. Are you able to relate to a woman without making some sort of allusion to her body or her looks? 4. Can you see that Saturn is your friend? Limitation is not fun, but adulthood is learning to say no to yourself when you'd rather say yes, because you know how to limit yourself for your own good.
these are not fun thoughts to ponder, but freedom lies in responsibility (from one Saturn opposite mars to another; and from one who is always going through some sort of hard Saturn transit), and one's willingness to accept that we ARE the architects of our own destiny. Nobody does it to us. We make our own choices, and if we are blessed, learn the lessons those choices bring us.
All love,
Pam

I'm 51 and my only child turned 21 last month. Just curious not that anyone really posts about their children.
If other posters had included aspects of their children I would probably have posted that kind of information.
I am a very much a part of my sons life. Although he lives in his own apartment about 130 miles away I still go see him often. My venus in the 5th house would of course means beautiful artistic children but with a Sun in the 5th house...children would be few...or only 1 child at the most. My son can be very creative and experiments alot more on the guitar than I ever did.
Sometimes looks havent played all that much in my having a crush on someone. Like for instance in the 5th grade I had a big crush on a sagittarius girl mostly because she was brainy. She was not what anyone would consider beautiful...she had huge coke bottle glasses and freckles and even a big brown birthmark on her face. I enjoyed talking with her...and of course I was too young to be sexually interested in her but I did enjoy sitting beside her and such.
I do have a Venus 5th house and Venus conj Sun in the 5th house...so I am naturally predisposed to be attracted romantically to beauty that is just my nature cant help it there.
As far as how and why a person may be a common denominator in lifes events. That has a certain bearing.. however in a random universe and the so called plain of manifestion. One can choose to love a certain person for their Love and sexual partner...however one affirms or thinks positive...if that person doesnt chose you back ...there is nothing one can do except cry in their beer and chalk it down to lifes vicissitudes.
I mean you ever gone to a night club? Someone sees you and says now thats someone I could really enjoy being with ...for a day, a week, a year, a decade. They think you're the cat's meow and they just are smitten with you... and then you see them and you dont like the shape of their nose, or their balding hair, or dont find them at all attractive. That person can say
"I'm gonna win that person for my very own...and thats just the way its gonna be."
So they say their gonna follow you until they get their way....and you've all had "unwanted suitors" come courting thinking that by sheer willpower they will wear you down. It might work in some cases but once you've made up your mind about someones attractiveness or desirablity or lack thereof. No affirmation, no angel of love or God above will change that which is usually decided within the first 4 minutes of meeting someone.
You've heard of the 4 minute barrier...where usually most interpersonal encounters between relatively strangers especially between the opposite sex ...are sized up and categorized as to their desirablity and their potential for a love or sexual relationship...within 4 minutes.
If we decide that someone is attractive and easy on the eyes ....their chances of exceeding that 4 minute barrier is pretty good....if we find someone unattractive and unappealing they probably dont have a ghost of a chance of going beyond that 4 minute barrier or even close to 4 minutes. How many guys and gals shot down in pickup bars within seconds...not minutes.
Of course there are exceptions in these interpersonal encounters...but this applies mainly between opposite sex or people of similar sexual orientation.
These arent the same say with encounters with relatives and old acquaintances. That involves alot of different dynamic aspects. However even then there can be sexual energy. I mean like a young girl admiring say her uncles sports prowess and thinking that when they grow up they'd like someone like them....or say sexual arousal of a walking hormone teenager...when he sees his aunts considerable cleavage in a revealing blouse.
Humans are sexual beings...and though we have taboos and Morals in a room with two of the opposite sex both will size each other up...and categorize each other as far as romantic or sexual potential. This is done consciously and unconsciously. Usually we have protocols and clothes as a barrier and protection against being sexually ravished by anybody and everybody. Of course if everyone was naked the tell tale signs of arousal would be evident but that would give away the game.
Einstein himself was really upset about his mathematical and Astrophysics findings....
"God does not Play dice with the universe" After finding a certain random universe in the laws of probablities. Rejecting his own data as something sacreligious and blasphemous.
So yes there is a certain randomness involved. even in las vegas gambling machines. Patterns and "winning systems" are useless in a random setting. Regardless to how many unfortunate gamblers that have kept feeding machines down to their last dollar..believing that the machine has a certain pattern and will pay off big every so often. Thinking that eventually they will win big..
it could be that the machine could pay off big within 100 tries or it wont pay big until after 100,000 tries...or maybe NEVER.
Affirmations and positive thinking in a similar way will not pay off big....on a person that has already decided that they wont have anything to do with you and that you arent their type...that find one sexually repulsive and physically replusive. At least in the normal scheme of things. Maybe in a scenerio like scarcity of opposite sex partners or in last woman and man on earth scenerio..they might change their mind...or else hurl themselves from a great height rather than to live in such an empty world with so little choices....and only have available someone they despise and would normally instantly reject. Humans can be strange like that.
of course but this post is starting to ramble. There is nothing wrong with being astrologically discriminating in ones partner.
Again in single bars and pickup bars or most anywhere....singles can be quite discriminating in their choice for partners. Some women like tall, muscular men with a good paying job...some just like a man with a good paying job and discriminate based on desire for financial security. They get involved with a person not astrologically sound for them..and then they bemoan about not being happy and dissastisfied with their partners later on...even sleeping around on them..with who else a more astrological compatible partner.
People are discriminative in their choices of sex partners, lovers etc...quite keenly so....but astrologically it is much more discriminating than that. You can get involved with a person who has lots of money but who's Saturn opposes your Venus...and then rue the day because they seek to own your very soul...to control and beat you down.

Dear AM,
thank you for that long response and the clarification on your son. I think if you spent more ti me reading older posts you would find that many people do indeed mention their children and aspects and such. I too have a fifth house sun/venus conjunction and I have one son, born when I was 36. He's a Leo (!!!) and is very creative, artistic, brilliant, and handsome.
I do beg to differ with you on the rest of your post.
1. Nobody our age goes to a club looking for a relationship. That's for twenty-somethings. And they are basically looking for a booty call, not a long term relationship. If you want to find someone who is compatible with you and who will like you for you, then you should follow your own interests and develop what you want to do without any ulterior motives, whatsoever. That's the tricky part.
2. The affirmations are not to make anyone like you. They are to make you more likable. The idea is, YOU change. You change your attitudes; you change your beliefs (like the one that someone with coke bottle glasses cannot be attractive. all she has to do is take the glasses off, silly); you change your misconceptions.
3. I understand that men are more visual than women. That said, I have had a few ugly boyfriends. And I knew they were ugly when I met them. But then looks are not a factor in whether or not I will become sexual with a man. What he has between the ears is the deciding factor for me. I like and need intelligence. Great bid intelligence. Everything else is optional: height, weight, age, income, body shape. So do not make generalizations to the four minute rules.
4. One of my most intense loves had Saturn opposite my Venus. He did not beat me down, nor did he try to own my soul. We had a year long relationship, spoke several times about moving in together, and broke up because he was confronted with the fact that he was much more vulnerable where I was concerned than he wanted to be. That was twenty years ago this fall, but we are still friends. Very good friends. I was heartbroken, but he was not a bad guy. He was just a double scorpio with trust issues.
5. Work on you. Everything else will fall into place

Oh Right Pam we are of similar age and astrological aspects. Werent you like about 9 days older than me?
I only mentioned single bars and pickup bars. I'm sure everyone here remembers what a scene that was. I most certainly dont frequent single bars....maybe to catch a band or musician or see some EYE CANDY.
I wonder if that coke bottle lense Peggy looks like? I probably would feel that comfortable emotional affinity like before with her. I havent seen her since like early 70s. Of course I never told her that I had a crush on her in the 5th grade. She was a year older and went on to JR high and I pretty much fell out touch with her...although we'd exchange a hello in the halls later on when I got to Jr High. Her glasses didnt bother me. In fact I think women who wear glasses are HOT.
I do tend to first be attracted by looks but that becomes secondary to be able to have a decent conversation with someone. I mean we've all met some real attractive people that just were crappy conversationalist. They were merely Pretty but Shallow. Spoke in brief three word replies and absolutely horrible conversationalist.
Like: "Hey beautiful! How was your day?"
Okay nothing special
"How about meeting me for dinner tonight"
Well I dont know
Oh come on it'll be fun..and besides I miss you and like to see you.
I saw you yesterday
and on and on. They say well I have to cook up some dinner. Call you back later...
They dont call back and keep you waiting. Bah who needs this crap?
Thanks for the kind words. I was feeling a bit depressed. Had a run in with a saturn ladened Virgo..who was keeping me waiting on getting back to me on my audition CD. She really has a certain nepotism in place at where she managed to get a job as a musical director. Mainly the musicians she books are friends of her and they are boring as hell. I could only sit through like maybe 4 of their songs. They sat in a chair hiding behind a song book and music stand...reading from a song book as they play live.
Any musician worth a damn would memorize at least 25 songs for that 2 hour show. that showed me that they really arent that musically talented and they are there mainly through nepotism because really theres nothing more boring than some guy with a song book on music stand and they play and then turn the dang page.
She acted like she was too dang busy to do her job and render decisions. I asked her to make a decision on whether she was gonna book me or not? I think almost 4 weeks is plenty. She responded to me with first off IMPATIENT....second RUDE...then yada yada...bullshit excuse about being super busy. (she gets paid to audition and accept or reject musicians for bookings..it's her job.) Then with further B.S. about HOW she COULD've booked me but because of yada yada...yada...good luck on that ever happening.
I basically wrote back to her and said....couldve wouldve shouldve what other BS are you gonna give me.
doubtful as long as youre in charge that you wouldve given me a chance anyway. Just glad your true colors came through. I dont really think you had planned to give me a chance anyway....you already had one of youre sychopant semi talented musician with their music stand all lined up.
I also told her you've done your worse stood in my way..and at least I know now how you really are. Defensive, vindictive and biased as hell. I told her I play and sing I dont kiss butt...you've got your song book reading buddies for that.
Must be the scorpio moon
