Podcasts about moon venus

I had no clue about this until recently, but just like the Moon – Venus has distinct phases depending on its position relative to the Sun at your time of birth.  Whatever phase yours is in will tell you even more about yourself, your unique energy, and what you're here to do than your Venus zodiac sign alone! Today, Turning of The Ages Mystery School astrologer (and my good friend), Danielle Hendrickson, joins us to tell us exactly what it all means for YOU.   We talked about: What Venus represents in TOTAMS. It's even more than love, relationships, money or even values  The myth of the Venus Cycle: Innana, AKA Ishtar, and her journey to the underworld 4 phases of Venus – morning star, underworld, evening star, and secondary underworld – and what yours tells you about who you are What the zodiac sign tells you about your expression of Venus Examples from Danielle's chart, as well as my own, so you can see how this plays out in real life Also, why you can't bring the Birkin with you. P.S. We covered TOTAMS as a system of astrology overall in this podcast episode, if you want to get a better idea of what it's all about!   CONNECT WITH DANIELLE!   >> IG: @IAmDanielleHendrickson >> Book a birth chart reading >> Work with/learn from Danielle  WORK WITH ME!   >> Get Your Free Human Design Chart >> Get Your Free Energy Type + Authority Mini Guide >> Read the blog >> HD Courses + Classes   –   CONNECT WITH ME!   >> IG: @JustFollowJoyHD >> Website/Blog >> Get on the email list >> Watch and Subscribe on YT   [SONG CREDIT: SCOTT HOLMES]

TUNE IN TO https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking to hear up to date Astro News You Can Use by Sheri Horn Hasan who discusses the deeper meanings of March's upcoming whirlwind of heavenly events!This podcast looks back at how the ideological fundamentalism of last month's Aquarius New Moon & Leo Full Moon square Uranus & Juno has shifted our major alliances. And how the February 27 Pisces New Moon planted seeds of greater empathy for those negatively affected by an idealistic Aquarian vision carried out in haste that's causing shifts in perspective & allegiances.Mars' station direct on February 23 has provided the martial impetus and the energy for our newly awakened inner warrior to rise up and take action to protect not only ourselves but those less able to defend & protect themselves. As it gains speed, however, Mars is currently giving us all even more reason to fight against the new U.S. administration's attempts to eliminate diversity, equity, & inclusion in its military & to decimate our legal & other governmental foundations. Mars' influence became obvious with the recent firings of the U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a Black man & the Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to hold the post and the first female member of the Joint Chiefs. Mars full speed ahead also resulted in the firing of three judge advocates general, also known as “JAGs”--who provide independent legal advice to senior military officers so that they do not run afoul of U.S. law or the laws of armed conflict. The danger here lies with the fact that the current commander in chief of the armed forces is Donald Trump, who during his last administration wanted to use the military to shoot Black Lives Matter protestors. He is now setting the stage to be able to do exactly that—next time protestors take to the streets.Then there's Venus stationing retrograde March 1 through April 12, when Venus will move back from Aries into Pisces. This is a period during which--according to Jungian astrologer Erin Sullivan in her book “Retrograde Planets”--we begin a time of global review. Between now and the inferior conjunction of the Aries Sun with Venus retrograde on March 22, & its heliacal rising March 28/29, is when “the reconsideration of what is diplomatic, & what is necessary to maintain a balanced world view & sense of integrity, is precisely what happens” to us both individually & collectively, Sullivan says. Both she and astrologer Bruce Scofield have predicted certain events may happen during this time—tune in to find out more!Mercury's entrance into Mars-ruled Aries March 3 adds some fuel to the fire of any backlash against what's happening now & what may occur during Venus's retrograde period. On March 11 the two will conjoin in Aries. Given that Mercury's communication & Venus rules finances, is it possible a budget reconciliation plan will be agreed upon & passed by the U.S. Congress before a looming shut down on March 14 when the first eclipse of the season hits?And might this budget plan cause even more distress as major portions of U.S. citizen's safety nets--be they Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, or simply your job as a federal employee or through a federally funded grant--be axed from the new budget? This podcast reviews also the deeper meaning of transiting Uranus in Taurus--as Venus, the current dispositor of Uranus, will retrograde through Mars-ruled Aries starting March 1—& we enter  a period of review of our core values. We discuss how Uranus in Taurus since 2018 has changed our relationships to others, to our work/jobs, to our resources over time, and how Uranus, the planet of unexpected change, is headed back to conjoin “off with his head” fixed star Algol circa May 4.It's clear that heads have been rolling all over the place--both globally & domestically. And that's been especially true since Uranus first came close to Algol last July & then, after its normal annual five month retrograde period since September 1, 2024, stationed direct on January 30. Will heads continue to roll until May? Or until the final Uranus/Algol meet-up in February 2026? Taking all bets now…For more on this & other important Astro News You Can Use, including the deeper meaning of the upcoming set of March eclipses, check out https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking when a new Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking! podcast drops at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET February 28.

WELCOME to another action packed astrological month of June as Gemini season is actively communicating various ideas needed deep thoughts. Mercury zips into Gemini to join the Sun, Venus, and Jupiter. Mercury is never too far from the Sun and is happy being at home where people understand the quick witted commentary and jokes that seem to come out of nowhere. The new Gemini moon also conjuncts Venus as Saturn also calls in to the meeting. It's a wonderful time for manifestation and meditation as the TMIs or volume of chatter and data overload may take over during these many many meetings occurring with the outer and personal planets on a daily basis. Even as the planets retrograde, they still continue to have meetings to support the path of the future. Of course these planets merely affect the vibes of the electric spark coming from the universe above Earth. How people interact with the pressures on our chemical bodies will reveal the truth. Choosing the path of integrity and balance are always true and trusted winners that will enable a peaceful loving life that is both spiritual and mundane. June opens with Pisces moon -ending May which introduced us unknown times that keeps sending more surprising news, especially during the Mercury ruled ogether as never before- strengthening our resolve to feel a larger community that we can call home. Next week will be another speedy race around the race track! Buckle up before things begins to slow down near the end of June. By then, the sand traps will be hard to avoid as the summer heats up with hurricane season!! Stay safe and sound! See you next week and thank you for your continued support!!Gemini season of learning and teaching. New innovative ways of communicating with out traditional methods will continue to emerge as the new year rings in. Sometimes too much of a good thing can cause anxiety overload as the need to be in the know gets addictive- such is social media. I am personally a tech geek in always playing around with various artistic apps to get my vision across to a large audience. This has brought the world together like never before. Thank you for your continued support and join me next week as we take another lap around the fast track of Gemini season!! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jody-cirame/message

This fortnight is jam-packed with the lovely blends of Elements which promote soul growth and social bonding. May 23rd is one of the most brilliant and blessed days of the year. Venus, the Planet of love, makes a conjunction to Jupiter, the Planet of luck, right before leaving Taurus to enter Gemini on this day. Their embrace, combined with the sextile between Jupiter, the Planet of protection, and Neptune, the Planet of dreams and divine connection, is a celestial celebration that expands goodwill and optimism.

Episode 135 In this podcast, New York Times bestselling author and astrologer Chani Nicholas discusses the astrology of the week and what it might mean for us all.  The astrology of the week of July 17th, 2023, is chock-full of incredibly impactful astrology. On Monday, Mercury (the planet of communication) squares Jupiter (the planet of luck), bringing us big and impactful news. Later that same day, there's a New Moon in Cancer opposing Pluto, helping us give ourselves the care we need. Also on Monday, the nodes of the Moon change signs, providing an increase of energy in the area of our charts that contains Aries and a release in the part of our charts that contains Libra. On Thursday, Mars (the planet of courage) opposes Saturn (the planet of boundaries), calling attention to a problem we have to contend with. On Friday, the Sun opposes Pluto (the planet of transformation), shining a light on something that is usually hidden. Also on Friday, the Sun makes a square to the lunar nodes, adding a fated feeling to our revelations. On Saturday, Venus (the planet of pleasure) stations retrograde, urging us to reclaim our desires and deepest feelings amid systems of supremacy. Then, the Sun enters Leo, which is a great time to adorn yourself and bring some flare to your life. On Sunday, Chiron stations retrograde, pulling focus to a wound we are working on healing. Finally, Mercury squares Uranus (the planet of disruption), which could present us with shocking news. This is one of the biggest weeks of the summer, so be extra caring with yourself and refuse to take on work that isn't yours to take on.  For more, check out your free daily horoscope on the homepage of the CHANI app. Android users can receive their free daily horoscope on the CHANI website.

Merrylin talks about the presetn cycle of the Moon and Venus

What do we want to possess and show off?

Welcome to the Celestial Insights Podcast, the show that brings the stars down to Earth! Each week, astrologer, coach, and intuitive Celeste Brooks of Astrology by Celeste will be your guide. Her website is astrologybyceleste.com.  

As we move toward summer here in the northern hemisphere, we can look forward to longer, warmer days. Most of the other planets go through cycles of seasons as well. But not Venus. There's nothing to cause the seasons to change. So the climate stays the same all year across the entire planet. Venus is the brilliant “evening star.” It's below the crescent Moon this evening. The star El Nath is closer above the Moon, with Aldebaran, the bright orange eye of the bull, well to the lower left of Venus. The seasons on Earth are caused by our planet's tilt on its axis. For part of the year, the north pole tips toward the Sun, bringing longer, warmer days to the northern hemisphere. And for the rest of the year, the south pole tips sunward, bringing light and heat to the southern hemisphere. Venus is flipped upside down compared to Earth and most other planets. But its tilt relative to the Sun is tiny — not nearly enough to create seasons. The seasons on some planets are also influenced by their distance from the Sun. Mars's distance varies quite a bit, for example, making the seasons in the southern hemisphere more extreme than those in the north. Here again, though, Venus is well behaved. Its distance from the Sun varies by less than any other planet — not enough to create any seasonal changes. So daylight stays the same across the entire planet all year 'round, and so do temperatures — about 860 degrees Fahrenheit.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

The Moon passes through some crowded territory the next couple of nights. Its most prominent companion is Venus, the beautiful “evening star.” Venus is close to the upper left of the Moon tonight. And a bright true star is a little farther to the left of the Moon: Aldebaran, the bright orange eye of Taurus, the bull. And here's something interesting about the trio — and about every other object in the night sky. We see all of them at the same moment in our own timeline — but not in theirs. We see the Moon, Venus, Aldebaran, and everything else as they looked at different moments in the past. That's because the universe has a speed limit — the speed of light. It's 670 million miles per hour. But this speed limit is enforced by the laws of physics, so there's no way to cheat and squeeze in a little extra. As a result, it takes time for light to travel from a star or planet to our eyes. And the amount of time depends on its distance. The Moon, for example, is a little less than a quarter of a million miles away, so the sunlight reflected from its surface takes about one and a third seconds to reach us. Venus is almost a hundred million miles away right now — almost nine minutes at lightspeed. And Aldebaran is four million times farther than that. It takes light 65 years to cross that immense gulf — a distance of 65 light-years. We'll have more about the Moon and its companions tomorrow.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

The three brightest objects in the night sky line up as night falls. The planets Jupiter and Venus are below the Moon, in that order. Nothing else is anywhere close to their brightness, so you can't miss them. The Moon is the last of the three bodies to set, about 9:30 or 10. We won't see it again until sunset tomorrow. If you just can't wait that long, though, you can see bits of the Moon at more than 40 locations across the United States. Those bits are from the Apollo missions. Astronauts collected almost 850 pounds of lunar samples. Hundreds of scientists around the world have studied the collection of rocks and dirt. Most of the remaining samples are stored in a lab at Johnson Space Center in Houston, where they're still shipped out for study — and probably will be for decades to come. But NASA has sent out many samples for public display. Most of them came from the final three Apollo missions. Most of the display samples are tiny — not more than a few grams. They're on display at NASA visitor centers, presidential libraries, and Smithsonian museums. Others are at state science and history museums, or at big aviation museums. According to NASA, they can be found in 23 states — from Massachusetts to California, Florida to Hawaii, plus Washington, D.C. And if you're outside the U.S., you're not shut out: Lunar samples are on display in almost a dozen other countries.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

The Moon and the planet Jupiter stage a spectacular encounter this evening. Jupiter looks like a brilliant star next to the Moon. Venus, the “evening star,” is close below them, completing an impressive tableau. Jupiter has four big moons of its own. And a spacecraft that's been orbiting Jupiter since 2016 has recently turned its instruments toward three of them. The biggest is Ganymede — the largest moon in the entire solar system. The Juno spacecraft flew just 650 miles from it in June of 2021 — the closest encounter with Ganymede in almost two decades. Juno confirmed the moon has a deep ocean buried far below its icy surface. It also provided new details on Ganymede's innards, and on the composition and temperature of some of its surface features. Juno made a close pass by the moon Europa early last year. Europa has a buried ocean, too. But it's much closer to the surface, and it's considered a possible habitat for life. Scientists are still analyzing those observations. And in December, Juno made the first of nine encounters with Io. It's the smallest of the four big moons. Instead of ice and water, it's a world of volcanoes — more than any other body in the solar system. Juno will pass less than a thousand miles from Io a couple of times. The craft will continue its reconnaissance of Jupiter as well — telling us more about the solar system's largest planet. More about the Moon and its companions tomorrow.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

The last time the United States sent a mission to Venus, the first George Bush was president, and cell phones were as big as your head. Today, we're getting ready to go back. NASA's preparing two missions — one to orbit the planet, and the other to drop a probe into its atmosphere. Venus is the second planet from the Sun. It's a bit smaller than Earth. Its atmosphere is hot, dense, and toxic, and topped by clouds of sulfuric acid. Those clouds make it impossible to see the surface. But the last American mission, Magellan, which was launched in 1989, used radar to peer through the clouds. It mapped a surface covered by rugged volcanic features. The new missions are Veritas and Davinci. Like Magellan, Veritas will use radar to map the surface. But its radar will be more powerful, so it'll provide much better maps. Veritas also will map the composition of the rocks. Davinci will orbit as well. But it'll also drop a probe into the atmosphere. It'll parachute through the clouds and go all the way to the surface. It should tell us more about how the atmosphere formed and evolved, and why it's so different from Earth's atmosphere. Veritas is scheduled to launch no earlier than 2027, with Davinci following two years later. Venus is the “evening star.” It's in the southwest at nightfall. The planet Jupiter looms to its upper left. And tonight, the Moon is directly below Venus in the early twilight. More tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

We are back with a chart that folks have been begging us to break down. We are talking about new mom, Rihanna! She's a singer, an actress, an entrepreneur, and a billionaire!She was born Robyn Rihanna Fenty, 2/20/1988 @ 8:50am in Bridgetown, Barbados.She has a Pisces Sun, Aries Moon and is an Aries Rising. People online love to debate whether she is really a Pisces or and Aries and she's really a perfect balance of both. The old soul of Pisces and the eager young energy of Aries combines to make a wise and ambitious woman. Mixing that water and that fire creates steam and there is no doubt that Rihanna is steamy!We discuss her Moon/Venus conjunction which is right on her Ascendant. There is a reason she's so stunning and she was destined to be a mother. That aspect also makes a quincunx to Pluto making it intense and exciting.We also talk about her out of sign Mars/Uranus/Saturn conjunction. That is why she's such a hard worker, inventive and creative. She's driven to change the world through her art and her business. We also break down some of her transits. We can see how transiting Uranus affected her career as a singer and a beauty mogul. Pluto brought up a lot of relationship issues which got resolved after another Pluto transit. And we can see how her music career has changed thanks to her Saturn return.This one is a fun one. I mean, who doesn't love Riri?Subscribe, rate, and review if you enjoy this episode!

One of the most beautiful astronomical conjunctions you'll ever see decorates the dawn sky tomorrow. The Moon will team up with the planets Venus and Jupiter, the second- and third-brightest objects in the night sky. All three will remain visible for a good while as twilight begins to paint the sky. And two of the three will stay visible even during full daylight. The Moon is fairly easy to spot, even though it's only a thin crescent. At sunrise, it'll stand about 40 degrees to the upper right of the Sun — four times the width of your fist held at arm's length. Against the bright blue of the daytime sky, it looks pale and washed out — a mere shadow of its nighttime appearance. So you have to search for it to see it. The same thing applies to Venus. Before daylight, it's the brilliant “morning star.” It's so bright that people often mistake it for an airplane, or report it as a UFO. During the day, though, it doesn't stand out at all — you have to work to pluck it from the glare. At sunrise, it'll be a little to the upper right of the Moon. Once you lock in, though, you'll probably wonder why it took so long to find it. And if you have binoculars, you can even catch nearby Jupiter shining faintly against the blue background. Venus and Jupiter are moving closer together, and will appear to almost touch each other in a few days — especially pleasing before the Sun floods the sky with the light of another day.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory
