VENUS: An Intimate Journey into Your Desire
The summer of 2023 something “dropped in.”
It began when the planet Venus entered a 40 day journey in the night sky that included a retrograde (review) period. While her transit ended September 3rd, but what this 40 day period opened is so much wider and deeper than I could have ever imagined.
The planet Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love, beauty, creativity, prosperity, relationship, sensual pleasure and wisdom. All that comes under her domain, she embues with these qualities.
And She is so much more….
SHE whispered an inspiration, a vision, an invitation into an intimate journey with desire and erotic energy.
Erotic energy is, quoting Audre Lorde, an energy available within all humans, “that lies in a deeply feminine and spiritual plane, firmly rooted in the power of our unexpressed or unrecognized feeling.”
This period was an invitation to notice, review, unearth previously lost or even dulled gems that allow for the fullness and depth of our creativity, beauty, and expressions of love and connection.
SHE is calling to be recognized in you, in me, in the worlds we are creating.
SHE is the balm for the fracture of the global heart these days.
SHE knows that within you – is something the world desperately needs.
SHE is our inestimable power, insight and creativity.
SHE wants those deepest treasures and passions within you expressed.
SHE desires you fulfilled, satiated by life’s bounty and love.
SHE is seen in the eyes of an elder, the silence of forests, the ripples of streams and wants to be known, felt, and trusted intimately within you.
SHE is YOU.
Your most radiant, expressed self, living a life offering the gifts you’re meant to offer.
I love astrology because I believe, like other elements in nature we are connected and affected by the cycles and movements of the planets. Though I do find myself less than satisfied with the limited, often western/European imagery and mythology used to describe these celestial happenings.
During this cycle it occurred to me that this energy of Venus is so much more.
What we are really referring to is an ancient, archetypal, original energy – the feminine principle. Described and known by many other names to the ancient stargazers.
She is known as Auset, Isis, Oshun, Ishtar, Inanna, Sekmet, Eruzulie, Nana Koole and many more. She is known by a 1000 names.
Her call was to create a space where women, perhaps a woman like you, can gather, to tap into what’s most true, potent and desirous within them and be supported in bringing it to the forefront of their lives.
To do so without shame, without the too-much-ness, without having to do it perfect.
To create a space for her to be brilliant, all the magnificence she is, expressed and imperfect without fear of retaliation.
The Call was urgent, for it is the imbalance of the Feminine Principle in our world that I believe, is the cause of so much suffering…and the transformation begins with one Woman’s courage.
Maybe you are one of the Women…
One who feels there’s more to be lived and expressed,
Who has a deep knowing of things, unexplainable, often doubted or dismissed by others, but you know they are deeply true and accurate.
A woman whose loved and lost and trusted and felt betrayal,
Whose chosen, or played it safe, and now the air feels like its getting thinner and thinner, and the walls closing in more and more.
A Woman who is actually f&cking brilliant, but she doubts and dims her light to be palatable or because its easier.
If you can find yourself in any of this – This moment, this offering is for YOU.
I’d like to introduce my new seven-week experimental “program” beginning in January.
VENUS: An Intimate Journey into Your Desire
The She of 1000 names calls to us - to journey down into the depth of the feminine principle where inexhaustible creativity, power and wonder abides. Benevolently awaiting our courage to look.
This is not an intellectual exercise. Like the energy itself it is intuitive, heart-centered, body-based, intimately connected to nature and her cycles.
I’m keeping this elegantly simple. If you're interested in joining the journey simply message me and I’ll send you the details or follow this link.
I wonder what awaits your retrieval?
