VENUS IN GEMINI: JULY 26-AUGUST 21:
Venus moves into Gemini today and stays there until the end of the August. It is the bright spot of the August calendar and remains relatively unafficted by other planets. Venus this month will foster a love of poetry and creative writing so for creative writers, this is your time to get that pen out and get that novel started or that book of poetry edited.
If you were born with an unafflicted Venus in Gemini, then you are friendly charming and fun-loving, logical, enjoy learning, popular and good in relationship with others. The natural 3rd sign of the zodiac Gemini is very creative as is Venus so there is a lot of flow this month for creative ideas and inventions and creative computer programming. I often find that computer programmers have a lot of Venus/Mercury connections in their charts. Venus in Gemini can bring out sexuality as Gemini, the natural 3rd house of the zodiac is connected to Kama and sexual expression and relationship energy and love of pleasure, good food and the arts.
This transit benefits Taurus and Libra rising the most with a 2nd house transit of Taurus bringing gains from family, finance and love and appreciation of good food. For Libras it can bring love of foreign travel, deep love and appreciation of Guru or spiritual wisdom or great love in attending church or synagogue. Aquarius and Gemini and Leo rising will also do well with this transit whereas Cancer rising may get caught up in too many expenditures or sensual indulgences. Aries has to also watch for an increase in sexual energy and turn it into creative expression.
Venus continues in the constellation of Mrigashira (Orion, Taurus 26.40-Gemini 6.40) until August 1st where intellectual pass for deep spiritual wisdom is supported. Venus in Ardra nakshatra August 2-12th (Betelguese, Gemini 6.40-19.59) is a bit more tumultuous for relationships and thoughts of breaking up a relationship could come up in order to foster the soul’s growth. Given other transits with the nodes at the end of the sign and the emotional turmoil of the eclipse into August 6th, if your relationship is on the rocks, it may get tested here.  Venus in the constellation of Purnavasu August 13-24th (Gemini 20-Cancer 3.20) will connect it with Jupiter and maybe the two Gurus energy together can soothe any turmoil from the total solar eclipse on August 21st.  Still Venus’s transit here may still create desire to change partners or create uncertainty in relationship. But the universal mothering and nurturing qualities of Purnavasu will bleed into Venus’s maternal energy well.
