Dear Astro Alchemy Friends!
YAY – VENUS takes flight in GEMINI this week – on the DAY of the early SAG – GEM Full Moon (May 23)!
VENUS is slightly behind, and about to catch up with the SUN on June 4, just before the oh-so GEMINI New Moon (June 6).
From end of July on, She’ll be the ‘Evening Star’ again – visible after sunset.
For now – GEMINI is the Venusian magnet, and attractive Yin (or shall I say: Yin-Yang Alchemy?) expression.
Everything GEM, and all your GEM features shall be sweetly attractive, the next weeks
Learning, esp. languages, lightness, variety & diversity, youthfulness, curiosity, genuine science (not: science-as-religion which we’ve seen lately), branching out with our interests, discussions and debates, being able to represent opposing views, and to see valid points in diverging views.
What a breath of fresh AIR, with this de-light-full Planet soon in GEMINI!
Momentum & openness come into the atmosphere, like wind & waves.
A good trend, if the energy got too stagnant lately.
The AIR Element, newly activated in the Solar GEMINI season, since today May 20, followed by VENUS, while PLUTO is retro in early AQ, activates learning & discussions, shows where we find Freedom & CommUnity, and how to co-create & co-innovate, to help Humanity.
Beyond social alienation, restrictions, and fears of a dystopian future (reflected in SATURN’s heavy impact on AQ 2020 – March 2023, followed by PLUTO’s dark extreme – that shows us what needs to transform).
I call the TAU – GEM cusp that VENUS crosses on May 23
The ‘Voice Point’
Time to find our V~O~I~C~E, (re?)learn & practice the Alchemy of L*O*V*E.
The shortest bridge between people can me a smile and a kind word.
Let’s be – again & anew – the learners & Alchemists of Love, communicate because we love to, perceive things in a fresh way, and engage in dialogue & synergy, where 1 + 1 = more than 2.
Never miss writing love notes – or letters… to your sweetie, to friends, to yourself, to random people….!
VENUS in GEM & MERCURY in TAU (May 15 – June 3) in mutual reception
Yep, they’re in each others’ ruled signs (VENUS rules TAU, and MERCURY rules GEM), as long as MERCURY is in TAU.
These Archetypes stimulate each other –
Favouring lightness & joy, flirtatiousness, playful banter & tease, shopping, market strolling & joyful walks.
In all this buzz, there’s also potential for misunderstandings…
due to lack of deeper communication, discrepancy between body & mind / ‘too'(?) lightly expressed terms of endearment, not always clear body language, and the like.
VENUS will square SATURN in PI, on June 8 – which can bring hurdles and serious vibes into the picture, yet it can also clear the air, and show more obviously where energetic boundaries are needed, where connections are and where they aren’t (anymore), and can be let go of now.
See line-up of VENUS encounters below.
For now, and in general with VENUS in GEMINI:
New Lightness & Movement are ever so welcome!
by Diana Varisco
The springy-light, ‘pollinating’ vibe of GEM is ON now, as delightful VENUS, brings a beautiful breeze of fresh AIR into the picture.
There are so many ways of seeing things.
GEMINI celebrates diversity, and learning from one another.
Do we ever need exchange of energy through fresh voices and dialogues, shared interests, learning, inspiration, communication, connection, and cross-pollination of new ideas!
The GEMINI Alchemy that VENUS draws us toward is via Love & Attraction.
GEMINI season leads to the height of the light – Summer Solstice – celebrated this leap year already on June 20!
May light & lightness bring a welcome contrast to the still quite heavy and dark atmosphere in humanity, given multiple on-going crises!
GEMINI is the Alchemist of Polarities and Duality
painting by Johfra Bosschart
The image of the Feminine – Masculine ‘Phoenix Twins’ shows:
Polarities are here to be dynamically alchemized.
Woman & Man together hold the Caduceus, the winged staff of Hermes / Mercury (ruler of GEM) with the two yin & yang serpents.
Rather than the modern medical / pharmaceutical symbol of the staff with only one serpent(!!!).
While the tendency of the Mind is to go into duality, starting with naming this and / vs that, the GEMINI path is to transmute duality.
The Alchemy Phoenix behind / above their Union represents the Rebirth in the ONE.
VENUS in GEM can be also about bringing more Yin-Feminine energy into the Alchemy. True for you?
With VENUS in GEMINI (esp. while MERCURY is in TAU), we attract lots of opportunities to learn and talk about Love & Values.
VENUS also affects money (as an expression of values – self love – self validation) – inviting us also to a redefinition of our relationship to money – as we learn and share…
A good time for speaking and writing, in loving, relational ways (VENUS), and ‘just’ for l’art pour l’art.
And for those Springy reads on your porch or under shady trees…
The Heart Chakra – related to VENUS – also connects with the lungs, and has the AIR Element attributed.
Love strengthens our immune system.
Still and always.
Let’s breathe this IN!
Live lovingly, with a Light Heart that grows wings, says VENUS in GEMINI.
And it’s about transforming Fear into Love!
The best Alchemy, and prob. the most important one!
Let’s let our Hearts grow wings!

ASTRO~CONSULTATIONS
Serving you with astrological guidance and perspective, pointing you to Your ‘Inner Cosmic Compass’.
I’d love to inspire you to be in alignment with, and smoothly ‘ride’, those ‘auspicious’ or ‘challenging’ waves of cosmic energies that present themselves at a given time, and, similar to climate and weather, affect our human energy field.
Which can lead to eye opening awareness, growth, healing, release, transformation, and you can feel more connected with yourself and with all-that-IS, in the bigger on-going evolution.
Ultimately, you dwell in a witnessing place in the ‘Hub of the Wheel’ where you are less & less affected, more & more liberated, and self-realized.
I welcome you as a client who is not seeking an ‘old school reading’ from me (“What’s going to happen TO me?”, “What am I supposed to do?”), but to be supported in accessing your own wisdom source, especially in times of a challenging transition, stuckness, transformational crisis, for new perspectives at a crossroad or dilemma, and for important choices.
This is to empowered and liberating ways of working with the ancient and timeless gift of Astrology!
From time to time, I have OFFERS on – to be found on my Astrology for Self Realization FB Page.
ASTRO~EXPERIENCES
via Courses, Workshops, and Embodied Astrology
Our experiential and embodied Astrology groups have over time (the 16 years I’ve been facilitating them) become quite potent and catalytic.
The intimate Astro hubs (max 6 participants) are a treasured way of being personally seen and involved – more commitment, a personal sense of community, and deeper effects.
Come join us, if deep synergy in a circle speaks to you!
You can find upcoming EVENTS (incl. Jupiter Journaling Journey)
on my Astrology for Self Realization FB Page.
