Venus is one of the brightest objects in the night sky, so\nit\u2019s no wonder that our collective fascination with her goes back to ancient\ntimes. Venus is connected to deities across myriad cultures. She is Venus in Rome,\nAphrodite in Greece, and Freya in the North. She is always the goddess of love,\nbeauty, and sex. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Venus rules Taurus, whose season ushers in spring. Symbols of fertility, new life, and abundance permeate her mythological existence. In this week\u2019s Daily Focus, I want to harvest the energy of Venus as we fully embrace spring. Let\u2019s take a look at some of the ways that Venus has been revered over the years, and how we can call on her power to create peace, beauty, and love this week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVenus favors the bold.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Ovid<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n At its most basic, this quote means high risk, high reward.<\/em>\nWhen it comes to love and feelings, it\u2019s good to put it out there and be\nhonest. If you don\u2019t shoot your shot, you\u2019ll never know what you\u2019re missing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThere are so many stars shining in the sky, so many\nbeautiful things winking at you, but when Venus comes out, all the others are\nwaned, they are pushed to the background.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Mehmet Murat Ildan<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n For centuries, Venus\u2019 warm glow has mesmerized people. When there is someone or something, that you love above others, it seems to shine. Follow your shine today and focus on the things that bring you happiness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cCalms appear, when Storms are past;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Love will have his Hour at last:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Nature is my kindly Care;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Mars destroys, and I repair;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Take me, take me, while you may,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Venus comes not ev’ry Day.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –John Dryden<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Some days suck. Some days are ruled by Mars, and we are irritable and angry. But some days are warm and delightful and carry the energy of Venus within them. If you\u2019re struggling to see the beauty today, it\u2019s okay. Just try again tomorrow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAll things of the sea belong to Venus; pearls and<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n shells and alchemists’ gold and kelp and the riggish<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n smell of neap tides, the inshore green, and purple<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n further out and the joy of distances and the roar of<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n falling masonry, all these are hers, but she doesn’t<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n come out of the sea for all of us.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –John\nCheever<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a long way of saying, \u201chappiness is elusive.\u201d And isn\u2019t that the truth? It also doesn\u2019t look the same for all of us. Love looks different. Peace looks different. Focus looks different. It\u2019s hard to compare yourself to other people, their successes and achievements, but try not to focus on that today. Think about how far you\u2019ve come and be proud of yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are\nstill parts. The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest\nveins. The moon is a great nerve center from which we quiver forever. Who knows\nthe power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling\nexquisitely through us all the time.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –D. H. Lawrence<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n All of the celestial bodies above us are constantly pushing\nand pulling, astrologically and spiritually. The energy that they bring has\nbeen magnified by the appreciation that people have for them. When spring\ncomes, and it\u2019s Venus\u2019 time to shine, let yourself be washed clean by the\nenergy of renewal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cVenereal: From Venus, the goddess of love, this word\nrefers to the reality of desire. With the rise of Protestantism and science,\nthe word disease was tacked on in a revealing combination of categorization and\nmoralizing. Which disease? The disease of love.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –John Ralston\nSaul<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n I didn\u2019t realize that the word Venereal came from Venus\nuntil recently, but I think it\u2019s such an interesting example of how these\nancient deities have worked their way into our modern world. There are hidden\ntributes everywhere, even in some unexpected places. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThroughout the ages, stories with certain basic\nthemes have recurred over and over, in widely disparate cultures; emerging like\nthe goddess Venus from the sea of our unconscious.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> –Joan D.\nVinge<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is a meta quote because the stories that I have seen rise over and over again are<\/em> Venus\u2019 stories. Those of love and beauty, friendship and family. Take the time today to let your loved ones know how much they mean to you. <\/p>\n\n\n You have a life purpose. Wondering what you\u2019re meant to do? You won\u2019t know until you get a life path reading<\/a> with one of our talented life path psychics<\/a>.
