Greetings,
With Jupiter and Chiron in Aries, and the Sun in Aquarius, Ingrid and Scott continue discussing the recent themes of authenticity, community, and individualism.
As Venus begins transit through its exalted Sign, Pisces, compassion and empathy becomes a major theme in relationships.
However, it is also important to be mindful of people pleasing, bending over backwards, or being deceived by a partner.
As long as you are being the authentic individual you are meant to be you will be able to truly be empathic to a partner without losing yourself in the process.
Check out the podcast through the link below...
The themes this week are…
1. Relationships
2. Compassion
3. Community
Venus, lady luck, the goddess of love and beauty, the planet of relationships, makes one final alignment with the Moon in Aquarius, the sign of community.
Meanwhile the Sun aligns with Jupiter in Aries, the North Node in Taurus, and Mars in Gemini, touching upon the themes of courage, values, and communication.
The major transit of the week is the arrival of Venus in the most compassionate sign, Pisces, where it is exalted, therefore it is in a position of power. Hopefully, this means you are entering a time of healing in your relationships.
If you are curious how these, or any other transits are affecting you directly, I encourage you to reach out to me for a reading.
Wishing you all the best through the week, as you ride the planetary waves!

Find compassion for yourself as a partner, and empathy for those you are in partnership with, as Venus transits through Pisces.
Be aware that you may also find yourself giving more than usual within your relationships, because you may be more sensitive to what your partner is feeling.
Are you be taken advantage of in your relationships?

When you are empathetic towards others, you are not taking advantage of them, you are creating space for their feelings to be validated.
If you and your partners are empathetic towards each other instead of avoidant, through faith, you will be more likely to find your dreams within reach.
