The Questions of Inner Marriage - Venus Conjuncts Mars - Tuesday, July 13, 2021

Hello Wise Owl —

The New Moon in Cancer (which began last Friday) gives us the monthly theme of “a priest performing a marriage ceremony.” The symbol addresses something in each of us that may be in conflict related to personal and/or professional relationships. There may be something that keeps us from living our true selves - our goal.

On July 18, the Black Moon will leave Taurus and enter Gemini. Gemini is the sign of The Twins, which is another way of saying the “twins” inside of us - the Divine Feminine and Masculine. The Black Moon in Gemini deals with approval from “The Other” - the outside, which is controlled by the crumbling Big Bad Wolves of the World. The “unconscious Black Moon in Gemini” likes for everyone to be happy with it, and does not deal well with rejection.

If there is something in conflict inside of you, something that is unresolved, the conjunction of Venus and Mars today is a good way to set things right in advance of the July 18/Black Moon in Gemini. This energy is in effect until February 12, 2022, when Venus and Mars start a new cycle.

For context, the Venus-Mars cycle that is ending began on August 24, 2019, at 05 Virgo, “a man becoming aware of fairies and normally unseen spiritual energies.” What was going on for you then? How has that changed now or has it?

To understand what could be keeping our inner halves from being "married,” here is a look at the other energetics of the day:

SUN: “a young woman awaiting a sailboat” - Are you looking outward - putting too much emphasis on what others think? Are you spending enough time looking inward or looking back? Is there an unrealistic expectation? Are you putting unrealistic expectations on yourself or others? Have you missed opportunities?

EARTH: “a general accepting defeat gracefully” - Do you feel defeated? Do you feel like a situation is impossible? Are you honoring your inner worth? Do you feel that everything ultimately comes out badly? Are you graceful in honoring people’s free will, even when you do not agree?

MERCURY: “an Arctic explorer leads a reindeer through icy canyons” - Are you restricted? Is someone else restrictive? Are you struggling? Is your mind on hardship? Are you avoiding something? Are your instincts telling you something? Do you need to lead yourself? Are you frozen?

This month’s “a priest performing a marriage ceremony” is sanctified. The “priest” represents a Higher Power. Venus and Mars make conjunction at “American Indians perform a ritual to the Sun.” The ritual is sanctified. The Sun represents a Higher Power. Both are Divine.

We are supposed to resolve our conflict.

What is the opposite of the questions above? Could our questions be all wrong?

SUN: “a young woman awaiting a sailboat” - What are you waiting for? This is the month that we are supposed to step out of our comfort zone and take action. When would be the right time? What opportunities can you make now?

EARTH: “a general accepting defeat gracefully” - Battles may be lost, but who is winning? It is easy to become defeated given what is happening now. But it isn’t over. People email me asking me when we will be free of covid? Collectively, we have given over our will to the controllers and look what we have. We can take that will back right now. We rely on the “unrealistic expectations” of governments that want us dead. I do not accept that gracefully.. I prefer to gracefully watch them take themselves down. We work for Second Renaissance and for what comes after they fall. We are preparing now and creating now.

MERCURY: “an Arctic explorer leads a reindeer through icy canyons” - We can lead ourselves through all kinds of dangerous territory. We use our wisdom, which was hard won. We turn to a Higher Power to sustain us and rely on that when times are tougher. And we have the Armor of God with Uranus discharging “a man with a rakish silk hat, muffled against the cold, braves a storm.”

The conjunction of Venus and Mars occurs at 8:54 am ET on Tuesday, July 13, 2021.

Ready for a new beginning?

Much love —
