VENUS ENTERS CAPRICORN:
On Monday November 25th at 7:29 P.M. EST until December 20th at 1:42 A.M. EST Venus travel through this Saturn ruled sign. While this isn’t the most easy-going of aspects and it can feel restrictive at times, it isn’t quite as unpleasant as you may think. For one thing, Saturn is exalted in Libra, one of the signs that Venus rules. That’s because in order to have a successful and long term relationship (Libra’s domain) we need to have a solid foundation and a realistic point of view. That is exactly what Saturn and Capricorn present as one of their lessons in life. While Venus is in this sign we will all tend to be more realistic about our important relationships. There is a tendency to test them to see just how strong they are. The secure ones will grow even stronger for the testing. The weak ones will be exposed and in many cases may change radically or end altogether. When a relationship ends under Saturn influence it isn’t smart to try and rejuvenate it unless there have been serious and deep changes made. You will only find yourself sinking into the quicksand you just pulled out of. For the next month you should be willing to look at your closest and most intimate connections and view them with a clear and honest eye. The truth may sting sometimes, but it is always better than living a lie. This is a good placement for financial matters, looking over your portfolio, putting together a budget or finding ways to save. It’s also a good time to seek out old friends and revitalize those relationships that have just been put on a back burner as long as they weren’t negative in their influence that last time you were together.
