I started the day by singing...it felt right. The gates always confuse me too... is it the first visible conjunction starting from the crown in which case there is usually an extra gate somewhere along the way to the underworld, even amongst astute Venus devotees there seems to be variations always... I've found it hard to track honestly except I do observe the "catch and release" nature of the morning star cycle and this seems to fit the narrative of that Venus moon gate system, and indeed the moon conjunctions seem to be palpable landmarks along the way... the humbling nature of the seekers quest, quite a different alchemy to the evening star ascent.
good way to start the day! And yeah, it seems I'm off (like I mentioned i may be). I too have always been confused with the overlap of the Venus cycle and which sky relates to what part of the story. Seems there are clearly two or more different camps. I'll keep to the conjunctions. =)
Yes and besides finding your voice in itself is quite potent and true at the moment esp with Pluto at the anaretic degree Capricorn in my 8th house lol speaking my preferences and feelings even if it’s not met equally has been the season lol. So it’s actually perfect for me.
This post hit home big time today, well really my 6th/7th/8th and 10th house. I did go outside early this morning to see the moon and Venus who were barely visible through the clouds. Ive been working with the Venus cycles for awhile now and it still confuses me but she actually entered the solar plexus gate today. The chakras work backwards in the morning star phase. It helps to think of Inanna removing an item of clothing in the morning star phase. She is not allowed to enter the underworld with her sacred garments and the crown is the first to go. Mercury was about to turn retrograde when she entered the heart charkra gate and it has really felt like a long period of throat chakra work to me so you bringing in the throat chakra makes total sense to me. Plus, Inanna slowly forgets more and more why she is having to remove a garment with each passing gate.
Lol. Totally understand that feeling😆 I know Arielle Guttman's work on the Venus cycle is a bit different to the way I have learned it through Cayelin Castell and Tami Brunk and of course theirs other astrologers that work with it differently as well. I imagine your OOB Venus will have its own vantage point to these earthly and solar patterns she creates.

I think Venus is in a descent from
Morningstar Leo - so the 5th gate of descent is the heart chakra gate - unless I’m mistaken ♥️
I've now heard 3 different takes on this. I'm going to conclude that it's all so very subjective. The conjunction is what is important =)

2 for the solar plexus! 2 for throat. 1 for heart thus far in all the feedback. Hands up! lol

most definitely. I have taught many classes and done many pods exploring those ideas =)
You certainly have!!😁
Thanks for another intriguing post, and thanks for being brave, it’s very encouraging (said with raw, husky throat!)
oh no! You have that constant throat bug at the moment as well? Or were you signaling to my husky voice?
Yes you do have a lovely husky voice! Me on the other hand, allergy I suspect. Mid summer here.
