Though this is happening in the sign Gemini, it is the big Taurus 2012 event! Get your calendar out to note these important dates! Venus entered Gemini April 3, 2012! Due to her retrograde, she continues in Gemini until August 7.
- April 11 the retrograde cycle started its first phase, forward.
- May 15 Venus retrogrades, starting Phase 2.
- JUNE 5 VENUS TRANSIT SUN occurs during the retrograde period Nasa link
- June 27 she directs (goes forward again, crossing the same area the 3rd time) and finishes this last phase July 31.
Venus Retrograde Mercury retrogrades commonly upset paperwork, appointments, communications, because Mercury has to do with those things. But this Venus retrograde is in Gemini, one of Mercury’s signs, so same, same, but more specifically about Venus matters, love, money, values, beauty. So appraisals at the museum, insurance values of artwork in your home, the price of the home you are buying, for example, may be affected, revised. You may decide not to remodel just yet, not usually the best time for a cosmetic surgery, to change your hair style, buy a new wardrobe. Go gently in love affairs, maybe wait to propose? Retrogrades are a bit twitchy. Flexibility can be good, multiple choice and constant change may be good for people who get stuck in a rut, need inspiration. Too much change and constant adjustment, may be frustrating and exhausting. Depends on the couple, what kind of business it is. If you are in advertising or news, it’s terrific, a plethora of diversity! If your partner depends on you to be there daily after their high stress job, simplicity and surety may be a better choice.
Hopefully there will be lots of attitude adjustments, more attention to neglected matters, broader awareness of new ideas, perception becomes a greater conscious tool. Where your focus goes, your energy flows! Keep turning your compost! Loving connections enhance the ‘What goes around comes around’ principle! Neighbors, and your local community, are like your spiritual siblings. Speak kindly, give appreciation, show your affection. It’s cosmic grease for the Spiritual Wheel.
If you are experienced in the matter at hand, you will probably make the right choices. By nature, the fire and air signs will fare better with this retrograde than the earth and water signs. The most challenged signs will likely be the opposite sign Sagittarius, and squared signs Virgo/Pisces.
Venus Retrograde includes the Venus Transit Sun!
The Transit (‘eclipse,’ occultation) is at 15º Gemini 42’-46’. Due to Venus’s retrograde, it crosses this degree 3 times! These 3 crossings precede three Jupiter crossings and station! These are quick aspects, probably a one-day effect, but made important because of the Venus Transit Sun! Make note of what you find yourself thinking, wanting, wanting to say. Polish up your rhetoric. Think bigger, let love multiply. This is important because Jupiter activates this point later, Jupiter of good luck, fame and fortune! Is this a cosmic coincidence, or did those Mayans have it all in hand?! Jupiter is only in Gemini once every 12 years! Do put these on your calendar:
April 23, the day after Earth Day(!), is the first cross
June 5, of course, is the 2nd, during the retrograde
July 20 is the last cross
The Last Venus Transit Sun
Once in a lifetime aspect! Venus Transits come in pairs spaced eight years apart, but the time between pairs is 122 years, then 105 years. Due to this pattern, only six Venus transits have been seen since the invention of the telescope. The 2004 Venus Transit was the first of our latest pair. Before that, the most recent transit had been in 1882—which means no living people on Earth had seen a Venus transit when the 2004 event occurred. Some speculate this rare Transit was one of the reasons the Mayans chose 2012 as their 26,000 year cycle end/start date. Read more, see the chart!
Father Sun is pushing every molecule of energy possible through Venus, as it always does, just that day, it is specially relayed to US! Perhaps it is like a wave of Love/Beauty energy coming to Earth, since they are lined right up in a row! Maybe Venus is filtering Father Sun’s energy, some of it being deflected, maybe softened, surely combined. Maybe this love is ‘bigger’ than usual?! Weather permitting, I’m going to take a Venus Sun bath – lay out at the beach, belly up, arms outspread, 100% receptive, or as much as possible! Who knows what will happen?!? Sometimes it is scary to be loved a lot….
Jupiter Gemini
Jupiter will be following into Gemini June 11, just 4 days after the Venus Transit Sun June 5, 2012! Starting Sep 2, Jupiter is in a degree or less of the Venus Transit Sun point until Nov 4, that’s 63 days!
- Jupiter crosses the Venus transit Sun point three times, the first is exact September 14 and 15 while in station about to turn Retrograde.
- Jupiter retrogrades October 4, 2012, returning to the Venus Transit Sun point October 23 and 24.
- After Jupiter directs, he recrosses the exact Venus Transit Sun point the last time, a year from now, spring of 2013, on next year’s Earth Day April 22!
Jupiter is the planet of Gemini’s opposite sign Sagittarius! Gemini is the gathering of data, making community wide connections, learning, attention, perception, all aspects of communications. Sagittarius/Jupiter is concerned with what it all means, higher education, purpose, how you get there, travel, having faith, long-range planning. Jupiter in Gemini is the capacity to bring the two together. Jupiter is considered expansive, lucky, having good will, abundance, vitality. Because it loves travel, cultures are brought together. There is a lot of talking, information exchanged. It would be terrific for foreign sales, imports. Educational systems may be enhanced, new perspectives shared, revisions of programs. Jupiter can have powerful religious views, Gemini is the Word (of God). Churches, famous evangelicals, even fanatics, may make news.
Gemini can be mischievous, like Coyote the trickster. It likes fun and word games, crosswords! Jupiter can exaggerate, be judgmental, even lie, perhaps not even intentionally, while sounding totally right on! Oops. Ok, so listen with caution. Get second opinions, don’t sign right away, consult experts, experienced professionals. But be somewhat adventurous depending on if you are willing to pay the price should the project fail. If you invest only what you can afford to lose, test the waters, and it succeeds, hallelujah!
What goes well with the afternoon of June 5, the Venus Transit Sun, we want MORE of! Focus intently, reconnect to the best connections you made when Jupiter recrosses this important point. Working it from the other end, on June 5, do, make the best connections possible, note your intentions, do what you can to make them become possible!
