On Wednesday April 14th at 2:22 P.M. EDT until May 8th at 10:01 P.M. EDT Venus enters one of the signs it rules. This is a time when we will all be looking for ways to shore up our financial matters and put our values in order. For the next few weeks we will be interested in defining our true purpose and aim. This will affect us personally and it’s important that you keep an open mind and not assume that you already know what’s most valued. You may be surprised by what you discover. And it could redirect your efforts in ways you hadn’t expected. This will also be true in the collective. We are at a point in our society when many issues are being debated and the differences of opinion are stark and in some ways crippling. Can we open our conversation to a freer expression of what is needed? Or will we continue to stand on opposite sides of the issues solely for the sake of tribalism? There are many things that both sides happen to agree about, but they are held back from compromise because of the scope of our indoctrination and the fear of alienating those we seek support and comfort from. It’s time to take off the blinders and recognize the need for change and for impartiality. I don’t know if we can achieve that at the moment, the way things are. But this transit will certainly point out what is important to us all. This will be more obvious regarding our financial security. But it’s true about many issues. Expect some changes in perception over the coming weeks. As Leo Tolstoy once said: “Everyone talks about changing the world. No one talks about changing themselves.” And while you can’t change the world, you can adjust your personal point of view to be more inclusive and to at least hear what others have to say.
