COSMIC WATCH:

“I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are good at heart.” Anne Frank

Lovable Venus, in caring Cancer, is trining idealistic Neptune in Pisces today. With this dreamy influence, we tend to look for the best in others and are more compassionate. It is also an aspect traditionally associated with wanting a “fairy-tale romance.” Sometimes, too, it can happen with this influence. At the very least, it is easier to go “under the spell” of our beloved now, as Venus-Neptune can be very hypnotic.

Interestingly, Danish fairy-tale writer and poet, Hans Christian Anderson, was born with this aspect exact in his horoscope, with his Venus at 27 of Pisces and his Neptune at 27 of Scorpio.  Venus-Neptune is often synonymous with great talent and creativity. Many artists, writers, dancers, and other performers have this aspect in their charts. Venus represents beauty and art and Neptune, the higher octave of Venus, governs our imagination and vision. Poet e.e. cummings also had Venus trining Neptune: “Your slightest look easily will unclose me, though I have closed myself as fingers, you open petal by petal myself as Spring opens her first rose.”

We additionally have the practical, yet indulgent Taurus Moon in its Last Quarter phase, which favors wrapping up old business now versus starting anything new. The Moon also goes void-of-course at 2:55 pm EDT.  Too, with the Venus-Neptune trine we may want to focus on beautifying our surroundings today, with Venus deposited in home-related Cancer. This may also include purging or recycling what is no longer needed. De-weeding is another excellent activity for today, with the Moon in earthy Taurus and in its waning phase.

Famous People Born August 9: Melanie Griffith, Whitney Houston. BTW, Whitney Houston had her Venus in Leo at 11 degrees applying to an exact square to her Neptune in Scorpio at 12 degrees.

“When I heard Aretha, I could feel her emotional delivery so clearly. It came from deep within. That’s what I wanted to do.” Whitney Houston.
