We’ve been talking about the Venus Mars opposition over the last days.  This aspect peaks today so we can look forward to less strife going forward.

The Moon leaves Taurus for Gemini so basically we’re looking at a finale of one act and a transition to the next.

Sound good to you?

I haven’t really worked out for close to three years. I did spend one summer walking but that’s it. This is marked contrast to my prior habit or working out four or five times a week.

I went back to the gym today. It wasn’t quite as bad as the time I took off 5 years when I had small children. Back then, the room was spinning after 6 or 7 minutes on a treadmill. It was not like that today but it’s still pretty bad. I’ve got what you call a lard-ass at this point, when it comes to carrying it here or there, against resistance. Gone are the days that I could spend an hour on a cross-trainer @ level 20, cracking jokes the whole time!

miatopia watched this old video, People Who Marry You When They Don’t Even Like You and started a thread to discuss the qualities of Venus/Neptune people on the boards. I have Venus in aspect to Neptune. I have written a lot about it over the years. I’ve written about the sensitivity to music and the deception which is perpetrated by the Venus Neptune person as often as they are preyed upon, though they’re usually more comfortable in the victim role then they are with owning their side of things, assuming they can see their side which often they can’t.

I’m posting because one things has never come up on this blog.  It’s the way relationships (Venus) can drain (Neptune) a person who has this in their chart.  People can really wipe you out and you pray to escape them.

Yesterday I had a consultation with a Pisces client and while she identifies with her Sun sign, she is a Capricorn rising with ruler Saturn part of a stellium in conjunct her ascendant and anyway you turn it, this woman is a Saturn figure. She is an parent / authority figure, plain and simple.

Other people are very Plutonian. You can’t get anywhere near them without being changed on a cellular level.

Others are strongly aligned with Jupiter. They cheer and expand you. They take you places you have never been… encourage you towards adventure.

Neptune types teach you to dream and escape the mundane, Mercurial people teach you think, something underrated, I’d say.

Moon types nurture and Venus types offer comfort, art, beauty and relationship.

Mars is a brave hero and solar types show us how to shine and be vitally alive.

Which of these energies do you feel you most represent?

The Moon in Taurus needs peace but it’s not likely to get it with Venus and Mars facing off.

“Couple in the next room
Bound to win a prize
They’ve been goin’ at it all night long
Well I’m tryin’ to get some sleep
But these motel walls are cheap
Lincoln duncan is my name
And here’s my song, here’s my song…:

Is there conflict in your life right now? Are you going toe to toe with someone?

Venus (women) is opposing Mars (men) in the sky right now. These are mutable (morphing) signs, and an opposition goes both ways. Here is a song that sums this up. It’s even got a victim in it.

“(For Every Woman Who Ever Made a Fool of a Man, There’s a Woman Made a) Man of a Fool”

Are you woman who makes fools of men or men of fools? Are you a woman who stays out of this mess?

I went off on my boards this morning as I do from time to time. I get pissed off, that’s why. I get so pissed off over who and what I am mistaken for and I am never exactly sure when this is going to happen.

I don’t mean the projection. That’s a constant for anyone who is going to put themselves out there for public consumption, especially if they have Neptune conjunct the Midheaven like I do.

What I mean is I don’t know when I will have angry reaction as opposed to my default reaction which is transcendence, but I may have a clue as of this morning. I can’t say this is true all the time, but it seems I am most likely to go off when the projection is widely disparate from what is going on in my real life, at the moment the insult comes in.

Valentine’s Day, 2012 will be one to remember. It’ll be sexy, complex full of surprises, somewhat haunted but ultimately, it will be fun!

As for the day’s intricacies, Venus (love) is mashed up with the outer planets, Uranus (shock) and Pluto (depth and intensity).  Old lovers can pop up.  So can new lovers and some people will suffer (or enjoy) both situations simultaneously.  If you wonder how, have you never been on a date and run into your ex?  What about a new man who invites you somewhere you used to go with an old love?
