After weeks of waiting, Venus is in Aries at last.  It happened Friday.  Just after it happened I looked up the asteroid Juno, which just entered Capricorn – I was being alert to all possibilities since Mars entering Aries was so completely spectacular and I wound up talking to two nationally famous intuitives and then doing a reading a leading a dreaming circle, all of which totally validated me in both my skills as an intuitive and my understanding of astrological timing.  There was a ton of other stuff that happened as well, so much that I’m never going to be able to pick it apart.

What I found is that Juno is crossing my its natal position in my chart around Tuesday, the same day Mercury enters Aquarius.  This is major evidence to me that asteroids are significant in my chart.  I looked up Ceres, Lilith, Vesta, and Chiron as well.  They all fit so well in my chart that I count it as a major revelation – that this would happen within an hour of the transit of Venus to Aries is validation for my expectations. Also, I find that I have Pallas and Juno in the 10th house of career, which is amazing because all this psychic validation I’ve had recently has made me think seriously of launching my website.  This new astrological information is very significant, and significantly timed.

The assimilation of asteroids to my astrological understanding too big for me to write about.  It’ll take a while.  But just knowing I have Chiron in Aries in the first house, and Lilith and Vesta in the 5th house with Venus explains so much of my life. 

The aftermath of Venus entering Aries has been less overwhelming than the Mars transit, but also very dramatic.  One of the main things is Buffy the Vampire Slayer.  ATT just gave me a free year of streaming which does not use my data plan so I can watch all of Buffy, Firefly, and Angel, which is amazing.  I’m hooked on Buffy now and I’m experiencing two very important things – I haven’t been a regular watcher of anything in more than a decade so my feelings around entertainment are shifting, which also moves my feelings around society in general, what daily life is, etc.  I find that having a TV show to watch eases the burden of navigating the corporate emptiness of my days.  Work is pretty easy but all the interactions are very cold and authoritarian and Buffy keeps my feelings from getting bruised.  Also television Buffy was on back in 1997 when I’d just discovered shamanism, so there’s a kind of time-bending effect, reinvolving me in the world I left behind back then.

I’m looking forward to being a Joss Whedon completist.

Moon in Taurus made me feel very comfortable with puttering around my home, cleaning and organizing.  I got a lot done.  Writing goes fairly well also, although it’s less exciting than Scorpio.  I’m going to try to reconstruct my weekend now according to aspects.

The moon semisextiled Uranus in the morning, and right afterwards I found myself having a moment of lucidity where I began to clear away a lot of the craziness of my daydreams.  I wrote a bunch of it down on my private blog, but then my browser froze and I lost the detailed notes I was taking.  This was happening during the day as the Moon inconjuncted both Jupiter and Saturn.

But then by the afternoon I had taken a nap and gone down to Edgewater to pick up comic books.  I had actually been watching Buffy the Vampire slayer while running on the treadmills while the Moon trined Mercury.  I felt great, and as I made my usual Saturday rounds I could feel the ethereal plane very close, and perceive my angels with greater clarity than ever before.  I think one of my Angels is appearing to me as Buffy, actually. 

I didn’t use my bite splint when I took a nap this afternoon though and I woke up with a terrible pain in my jaw from grinding my teeth.  It’s interesting that I was acquiring this pain while the Moon was inconjuncting Saturn, because it did actually limit my movements all night.  I took some pills but it still hurt, and it was hard to move around sometimes.

It still hurt a little this morning. 

Even so, I wound up staying awake until three a.m. cleaning house.  I felt good because I was really accomplishing things, solving age old problems and getting rid of useless stuff that’s been around forever.  The Moon entered Gemini, and then trined Venus at 12:51 am while I was doing this and I think that energy had something to do with this.

I didn’t get any writing done and attribute that to the frivolity of Gemini. 

This morning the Moon trined Mars – I woke up early for my meditation group but I don’t remember much.  When I came home I took another nap to catch up for my late night, and then when I woke up all I wanted to do was clean and go watch Buffy while I worked out.  But I wound up sitting around having weird psychic experiences.  They were fun and interesting, but I wasn’t getting nearly as much done as I wanted.  I am attributing this to the Moon squaring Neptune, as it wasn’t until after that aspect that I got myself together to go run. 

Even that was fun though.  Neptune aspects are fun an interesting, very psychic for me, even when they’re awkward like this square.

Ceres just entered Taurus, and I don’t know what that means.  I just found out about Ceres on Friday.  Ceres is nurturing though, so I’m taking a guess the reason I feel so content is that Moon and Ceres are in Taurus.

And now Jupiter is going retrograde.  I’m going to pay attention to see what this means.

Taurus is okay for writing, not nearly as exciting as Scorpio and Aquarius though.  Gemini is not great for me.  I feel flaky and shallow.

Moon is trining Jupiter and semisextiling Uranus tomorrow.  Maybe something cool will happen.  We’ll see how this balances with the Sun inconjuncting Pluto – will that matter at all, I wonder?  Or the Moon opposing Saturn in the evening?

But I’m looking forward to Tuesday:  Mercury enters Aquarius, I’m hoping writing to get a little more exciting.  The Moon will square both Mars and Venus, but then it all winds up in the Moon trining Neptune in the evening.  This should be a big day for me!
