My first ever V log : 17 June

This is my first brave attempt at doing a video blog.. I have done them before but never found the courage to post my shaky efforts. I am sorry my face is not so clear in this one, I spoke while walking this morning in order to ground some insights that have been coming into my own struggle to find self value in the context of Venus now only having 9 more days to move retrograde..

When Venus comes up into view again after her sojourn of being held in the embrace of the earth it often sparks feelings we may have buried. It is helpful to view this in the context that 5 days before she moves forward we have Solar Eclipse at 00 Cancer which is the degree of new birth, a new cycle occurring around the same time as both summer and winter solstices…Bear in mind too that Cancer relates to the mother, the Great mother, nurture, family interconnections as well as memory.

Mercury is ahead of the Sun right now at 14 degrees of Cancer so for a few weeks we have been having memories coming up and when Mercury slows to station in terms of the Sun she moves backward through those 14 degrees and meet the Sun at a seed point.. and then 7 days later Venus goes forward.. I know its a complex dance of energies to outline here, there are cycles within cycles playing out and it a massive undertaking to understand both the personal and collective context…

If the feeling of being unnurtured comes up at this time do your best to hold through the feelings.. Cancer also relates to the baby or inner child.. on the journey of self reclamation we may find lost of scars to this child our parents passed on that then manifest in new relationships.. We will also be questioning the context of home and family as well as the formative influences that shaped us.
