There’s a perfect storm of relationship and intimacy happening.  It’s not just a sexual thing.  Venus is involved and her game plan includes helping us choose a life that we truly value.

Venus, Makemake, Typhon, Logos, Vesta and Eros are all in the Gate of Conflict – one of the main intimacy indicators in the design chart.  And her lover Mars is also in good company, being conjunct Saturn, Lilith and the Super Galactic Centre.

At a time when we could be feeling like retreating from the world, thinking we’ve been doing it wrong forever,  there is a rejuvenation happening at the emotional level.   Asteroids Child and Sisyphus are in the mind (47) perhaps prompting some old thoughts of no escape.  Remember Sisyphus, he’s the one who pushes the rock uphill and then watches as it plummets down and waits for him to do it all over again.

So what are Venus and Mars up to?  Well Venus has some pretty impressive friends just now.  Logos could perhaps indicate that Venus is being very logical, quite rational. But in fact Logos is THE WORD or alternatively the void from which all matter arose.  Keep that in mind while we meet Makemake, creator god of Rapa Nui.  The people of Rapa Nui were reported to live a life of such abundance and eros that the Europeans who first turned up there couldn’t figure out how they managed it.  All that good life from such a barren landscape – matter arising from the void.

And speaking of Eros, he represents the juicier end of the spectrum of life.  That leaves Vesta – your inner fire of sexuality and creativity, and Typhon which has a connection with the Snake Goddess and kundalini.  Pretty feel good energy and a great support to moving out of old patterns of relationship conflict.

Mars and Lilith in Libra, what an intriguing mix!  It could represent anger against women, having the courage to shift out of fixed roles, especially those roles constellated around gender, shifting the structure of long term relationships.   We’re in the G Centre so we’re dealing with a shift to the big love, and being able to still have the fun of all that tenderness, belonging, lust and romance of the Solar Plexus Centre without losing ourselves or our connection to source or whatever you might like to call it.

It also represents a potential shift in no longer projecting our masculine or feminine aspects onto a partner.

There is a huge leverage in this.  When two people come together with full access to both the G Centre big love and the Solar Plexus Centre more human love angels everywhere rejoice and the universe showers blessings upon all the world.  That’s where we’re heading.

Venus, and Mars in Libra, ensure it’s not just about romantic love, but also affects our business relationships.  Our personal feelings have never been particularly welcome in the workplace, to the detriment of us all.  A corporate environment devoid of emotional intelligence has proven itself to be a complete planetary disaster.  And even beyond that, it diminishes our personal contribution, turning us into robotic drones, or at least not as fully present as we could be.

Makemake and Haumea keep things sweet and happy, but even so, you could be feeling a need to be quiet, withdrawn, to retreat some from the world and allow a gentle teasing out of some old hurts.  It makes for a gentle storm, but one with profound implications for both love and business.
