Venus is About to Go Off! — An Anaretic Opposition to Uranus Coming!

Hey everyone. This is Adam Elenbaas from Nightlight Astrology [https://nightlightastrology.com/].

Today we are going to take a look at a major aspect that Venus is forming over the weekend. Venus, at the last critical degree of Scorpio, is making an opposition with Uranus, who's also at the last degree of Taurus. This is reactivating the energy of the new moon, which featured the mercury cazimi All opposing Uranus and Taurus.

So Venus, coming out of the Grand Water Trine this week, is now making a major series of aspects over the weekend, which will also include a Trine perfect trine to Neptune at the exact same time that Venus opposes Uranus. So a lot to take in and look at. We're going to explore it today before we get into it.

So first of all, we have Venus just fresh off from the Trine that she made with Jupiter. So that Trine is something we have explored at length. This week, I did some live horoscopes. We had another day of breaking it down. We're now moving out of that Trine today, on Thursday, November 27 and we're now moving into the next phase of Venus's the conversation from Venus this week is very loud, and Venus is moving into the sort of grand finale of what she has to say in the sign of Scorpio this year.

So we're approaching this opposition to Uranus. And I just want to move this forward a couple of days. When we get to Saturday, November 29 you're going to see that mercury is stationing to turn direct over the weekend, and at the same time, Venus is going through this opposition to Uranus, at the exact same time, Venus is coming into a trine with Neptune.

So the trine to Neptune influences, or flavors the opposition with Uranus. You could say it's a Venus Neptune opposing Uranus, in a way, because that Trine is very fluid between the two of them. You get a very Venus Neptune kind of flavor from Venus, and then you put that Venus Neptune flavor into the oppositional dynamic with Uranus, and that's the that's the signature.

So we move this forward. It's between Saturday November 29 and Sunday November 30 that we see this aspect sequence unfold. And by later on in the day, on Sunday, Venus has moved into Sagittarius, and then the dynamic has completely changed.

What that means for us sitting here today, Thursday, November 27 is that between now and Sunday the 30th Venus is popping off. Venus is really going off. Now, what I'd like to do is give you a list of things to watch for, as I always do.

To followed by some just some reminders for growth, I've been trying to include some very practical things that I've learned and seen in my spiritual life, working with transits like these. For years in my counseling practice, what have I seen that works for people when aspects like these come through?

For example, I've seen hundreds of clients who have dealt with Uranus opposing their natal Venus. What gets them through that kind of situation? We can take some of those life lessons and apply them to ourselves, even if our trans is three or four days. Same advice still works. So anyway, I'll give you some of that at the end as well.

All right, five things to watch for. Remember, these are anaretic degrees in modern astrology, we think of those as degrees that bring the completion of a process karmically, that bring things to a peak moment. Energetically, these are all metaphors, right? That bring, that brings the end of something or a peak moment of, let's call it energy, a kind of energetic expression of maximum intensity and change, transformation, accumulation of things from the past that reach a boiling point.

That's all generally when we talk about anaretic degrees, we mean something like that is going to occur. So then what we do is we take the meaning of the transit and we apply it to that anaretic we apply that anaretic symbolism to the nature of the transit at hand.

So it's a Venus Uranus dynamic, which we see throughout the urine squares, conjunction, opposition. But this is a Venus Uranus dynamic that now carries that anaretic tension, which means it's a real boiling point. I like to try to keep these things as simple as possible, without pretending like I understand exactly what's going on karmically.

You know, it's a it's sort of above our pay grades, I think, but nonetheless, a peak moment, a moment with some history and weight. We can think of that symbolically, as the planets move through the entire sign and just reaching the end of the sign.

There's something about that that usually carries more significance behind it feels like a process is you're tying a bow around it or something. Now, Neptune is also at the 29th degree, so the trine between them also has this feeling of something gathering together, maybe more constructively in a Trine than in opposition with Uranus.

But the gathering of Venus Neptune feels like it's reaching a place of completion, harvesting, fruiting, finality as well. Both of those planets are at the 29th degree. Anyhow, with all of that in mind, we're going to try to marry Venus Neptune as one part of the aspect opposing Uranus as the other part, given the 29th degree involved in all three planets.

All right, so first on my list is idealization and impulse. When Venus and Neptune get together, that romantic tendency to see the best in something to wear rose colored glasses, when you look about the world, to imagine what the ideal state of happiness would be for desires to be peaking in their intensity and expression.

It's like, you know, my girls, when we go I don't know there's certain stores in the mall, you never know what's going to happen, and they just completely lose their mind because there's something that they want. And of course, as parents, we're training them to have better impulse control, to be thoughtful, to maybe save up their allowance, whatever.

And sometimes you just you know, you cave, you crumble, or maybe it just feels like you know they've been they haven't been asking for things for a while. They've been demonstrating some good behavior. So you try to figure out when is the right time to say yes to these impulses, and when is the right time to curb them.

Venus and Neptune can be just as blurry. It's like going to the store of life with yourself and being like, Well, should I do I don't I? Should I be letting this come through and just giving into it or not? But the the weight behind the decision of what desires to follow or chase, or what to indulge in or not is extra pronounced because Venus is also opposing Uranus, which can create problems for Venus with impulse control.

I want it now and I and there's a transgressive quality to Uranus. Always where it's it's a rebel Uranus is, or it's a it's a planet that doesn't want to say no, it wants to say yes. It wants to honor and acknowledge creative individual impulses, originality.

But when that originality is coming through Venus Neptune, it might be like, Well, I've never had this before. I want this right now. Or, why can't I have it? Or I'm not. I don't care what the maybe super ego is telling me about impulse control. I want to defy, resist and rebel.

So the idealization and the impulse to rebel coming together can be problematic, but it could also be, you know, Revelation. Revolutionary in some ways, which is why number two on my list is creative and imaginative breakthroughs, the same exact thing coming through that we have no ability to control our impulses around.

Could be, on the other hand, something that shows up as a dream, a desire, a fantasy, an image, a hope, a wish, an aspiration, a creative or imaginal sense of what's possible or what we could create or become, or a romantic impulse.

We meet someone and we start falling in love, and why do we have to call ourselves back? Why do we have to be grounded? I think Uranus and Taurus, with the opposition to Venus, could be saying, you don't just put pen to paper. Just start writing. Just kiss the Damn boy you know.

Just smooch his face and see where it goes. See what happens if you can honor and acknowledge these creative impulses, these imaginative directions from spirit, what kind of breakthrough is possible? What kind of unexpected twist or turn could the story take right now? Maybe it's it, and does it doesn't have to go in the direction you think it's going to go in.

Who cares what direction it's going in. Just follow that impulse creatively and see where it leads. There's nothing more fantastic in life than that. I think of it like often, what happens to me when I'm writing is I'll get in for the story selection part of my book, the first draft that I wrote of my book, which some people got to read, was really not about the prose as much as it was the story selection.

What story is this chapter about? And for me, it would often start with an image, and the image would be like a memory or a scene, and I would be like, Well, I don't know where the rest of the chapter is going, but I know it's starting there, because I would just know it's like the mu speaks and you okay, that's where it's starting.

But most creative processes are like that. You have an image, you have an impulse, you have a desire, you have a fantasy, you have an urge or a longing, and it shows up and it comes through, and you go, ooh, I'm just going to follow that and see where it goes.

So if you can let go of expectations and attachments, and you're not making like disastrous, self destructive decisions, then see, see where it leads, and have fun with it. So creative, imaginative breakthroughs, really nice for for this transit to be that, but to also potentially have to face some resistance.

I have to let go. I can't control, I can't expect. I can't have attachments to outcomes. That doesn't mean I can't follow this creative impulse and maybe benefit from it, but the control Be careful of that.

Now number three, look Venus, and is in Scorpio after all, where she loves to create healing and growth and change through more intense or heated encounters in love and relationships, often deep, often kind of sexy or sultry. But she loves to in this sign, go deep, or it's like, go deeper, go home.

Well, when she's connecting with Neptune, the romantic intensity peaks. It gets a lot bigger and brighter and more otherworldly and dramatic and ungrounded, wonderful. And then she hits Uranus in an opposition. And the potential for breakthroughs within relationships or within the emotional dynamics, or it doesn't even like we think of breakthroughs in relationships as getting together with someone or breaking up with someone, or separating for someone, or a divorce.

Or it always is like getting together breaking up. But there's there's a whole world in between where relationship dynamics can change dramatically more creatively, to create more freedom, to create more exploration, to change or relocate boundaries or the terms of the soul contracts within existing relationships can change dramatically under these things, and it's not as flashy as getting together or breaking up, but it's still really substantive and important.

So watch for that, because Venus, in this position is suggesting maybe the the fluidity in a relationship is ready to change or shift. We're ready for deeper exchange emotionally. We're ready for deeper exchange of intimacy, or we're ready to separate ourselves where maybe there's been a lack of boundaries.

There needs to be some distinctions drawn that wouldn't be surprising for Venus opposite Uranus as well, where Venus Uranus often creates in their oppositions, especially more tension between togetherness and apartness. So if there needs to be more individuality within a relationship that could be created during this opposition as well, number four would be a moment of karmic harvesting and love and relationships.

Remember all of this, all three planets at the 29th degree over the weekend suggest finality, accumulation, reaching a peak moment within a process that has some history behind it, so a moment of karmic harvesting in love and relationships around things like anything Venusian, right? Romance, love, beauty, esthetic.

Politics, women, sisters, friendships, sex, art, creativity, even. And so when, when anything Venusian that has history behind it is reaching a moment of transformation, it's not going to be the same old thing anymore. It's not going to be the same old thing because Uranus demands that there be a breaking of the mold or pattern, and the opposition suggests that Venus may want to hold on.

But the trine to Neptune and Neptune sextile to Uranus also suggests maybe there's just some easy slightly, there's an easier, more fluid way of creating a change or transition than you are imagining. Let go, allow the change to happen, and it may actually be smoother and easier than you're thinking.

It will be. Be very careful of resisting something whose time has come. You know the change, the moment of change is at hand. Don't resist it. You might be surprised at how easily a fluid dynamic Can, can guide the situation. It's more fluid than you think it is.

What I'm trying to say, number five, destabilizing, ungrounded energies, impacting relationships, friendships. This is that moment where suddenly you go, am I dating someone who's completely unstable, you know, or am I is? Is? Is there someone in my sphere who's not not being grounded, not respecting boundaries, not taking no for an answer, or not, kind of playing by the rules.

And I don't mean that there's only one way that relationships should operate, but most of us have a kind of a Venusian. Remember, think, think about like Venus and Libra, like there's, there's a kind of math socially that we we this. There's equations socially that we all know, and transgressions of of boundaries and like not playing by the rules.

It with these energies because of Venus opposite Uranus and Venus Trine Neptune. Could end up feeling like, do I have a stalker? You know? Is someone not leaving me almost not, someone not respecting my boundaries? Is someone intentionally trying to mess with me or undermine me, or, you know, so when Venus shows up in other words like this, you want to be careful that you're not playing games or trying to get what you want in ways that are very ungrounded and not sane or respectful, or, you know, so destabilizing, ungrounded emotional energies, emotional dynamics, behaviors in relationships or friendships.

It might alert you to the fact that you know some relationships you discover over time, feature you know, one person in the relationship that that's just healthier mentally and emotionally than another person, and that has better self respect and boundaries, and this transit can reveal, oh, that person's little craze, little, little cray.

Cray just all, I'm just teasing. And you can, you know, love, compassion, respect for people who are healing, who are traumatized. That also doesn't mean you have to be in a relationship with them. So be careful of that within ourselves too. Like we can only get a little we can all become a little crazy, so, so watch yourself.

All right. I have three reminders for growth that I want to bring to you, that I hope you can if any of these are useful, then score. All right, here we go. In I Ching, there is a line that is used over and over again in certain hexagrams. And the line of the oracle will read no fault or blame.

And benefel Wen was explaining this in her book. I'm going to hold it up so you can see it the I Ching. I Ching the Oracle, a practical guide to the Book of Changes by benefel Wen. I'm going to say it. There it is. Check it out. She's really good.

But anyway, she explains that line in a way that I had never heard it explained before. In the book, she has a section where she explains commonly recurring lines in the Oracle texts of the I Ching and no fault or blame, she explained so nicely.

I was just so thankful for her explanation, because I've read it a million times and never heard it broken down so concisely. She said often when no fault or blame shows up in the Oracle, it's a reminder that some things are happening according to karmas and fates and acts of God or the universe that aren't really about you personally, and sometimes, when things happen that are really out of the ordinary, especially Uranian, things that show up that are unexpected, that feel a little destabilizing or that I don't know, just throw a curve ball at us, And we have to react or respond.

And we go like, what? What the fuck was that? You know, what? Excuse my language? What was that? You know, what? What did i What did I do to deserve that? Or, what does it mean? And this line, the I Ching, very simply, no fault, blame means sort of like it's an act of God.

There's other shit going on, you, don't you? You don't see it, you can't comprehend it. Just it's like, not your fault. It's not there's no blame assigned to you. This was just a part of a larger cosmic thing that's happening. And sometimes we, we catch strays from the, you know, the cosmic conductor of the great Symphony of the universe is waving his arms around, and there's, you know, the brass are playing.

And we just like, we catch a stray note clocks us in the face, and we're like, Wait, I thought I was a pretty decent fellow, you know. But no fault, no blame. I say that now because frequently that line comes up for me when I'm reading The I Ching in relation to Uranus transits.

Isn't that interesting? Where the quirkiness of what happens in the like, what? The WTF of it all? I'm going to try not to swear as much, guys, you go, what? What did I do? How? What is? How? Is this possibly my fault? No, no fault, no blame.

So keep that in mind. If you can't identify why something happened, or you can't identify some part of your own, if your conscience isn't clearly speaking and connected when you sat with something, it could be that it's just one of those no fault, no blame situations like, Don't question it too much.

There's a lot of strange stuff happening. Okay? Number two, I can only I can take on only so much. In relationships, we we take turns carrying things, and we try to carry things proportionally. There are times in relationships that are unequal that get balanced out later.

So I might carry more now, my wife might carry more later, emotionally or financially, or that stuff happens. And so having a big picture view for how karma goes through balancing and rebalancing in relationships is really important. However, one of the indicators that something might need to shift is that you're getting literally too too tired to carry something like I can't.

I'm reaching a point of mental or physical or emotional exhaustion carrying more than I can. This is a great transit for that kind of recognition, and it's important if you reach that point, even if you can't fathom how to address that in a relationship, step one, and this is something that I've spoken about with many clients during Uranus transit.

Step one is just saying I'm at my limit. I can't take on any more. I can't do anymore. I'm reaching a place of exhaustion or breakdown. Dear universe, please help. Often, the practical steps that we have to take, they're hard, or we don't know exactly how to take them, or we don't know how to create the change, and so we just say, well, I'll just keep doing what I'm doing, because I can't see a way out.

Understandable, sometimes you really can't see a way out of a dynamic. However, we don't have to be the ones who see the way out. We can trust the higher intelligence to do that for us. If we can take a simple moment or as a ritual, begin saying to the universe, please help me find a way out.

I don't see the way out, but I can only take on so much, and I'm at my limit. If you keep praying that prayer and making that acknowledgement felt between you and the universe, my experience is that not always right away, but in time, solutions come that you're the controlling mind, the one that feels like I've got to figure this out.

Can't always figure out on its own. So just some advice in case it's helpful. And remember surrender and trust bring blessings. There is a trine between Venus and Neptune right now, when things are erratic, when things happen that are unexpected, you have no control over other people and how they act or how they're treating you, or something that's happening that's unexpected.

Remember Venus trining Neptune in the background, sort of says, What could surrender or trust or faith do for you right now, it might make things easier or smoother than you're initially imagining. So those are some thoughts I have for you. I hope it's useful.
