Today Venus appears to me as fierce and magnetic, all tattooed and ready to party and fight while nourishing new life. I am reminded of Aries’s great power to initiate, to use her profound vitality to get things going—a party, a bar brawl, a new project, and life itself. I am also reminded of Aries’s need for freedom and self-centeredness.

As much as Venus can create and get going this season, she’s also not going to be one to stick around and nurture. It’s not that she’s incapable of love or does not care for the things she births. But her pride is her relief; to see her children able to make it on their own so she can move on to the next intrigue.

Along with this, she may feel so inspired by ideas, so stirred by new conceptions, she struggles to focus on which would be most rewarding. In truth, it doesn’t matter what she chooses, but if she cannot choose and commit then nothing she carries forth will have much vitality. If she’s going to bear a literal or metaphorical child, she might take a break from the partying and fighting, which risks boredom.

Today you might sense into where in your life this energy is kindling her flame. There is great potential to get something interesting going, and a risk that it could be a brief flame that burns bright and flickers out. At least it will be interesting.
