Today it’s time to fish for beauty. We’ll be exploring
Venus, the planet of relating, everything lovely and the craving for peace and
justice. If you’re coming in during the
middle of the movie, so to speak, and wonder what we’re up to, here’s the
background about our May Planetary Fishing Trip.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the excursion.
Venus Fishing
Instructions
1.
With Venus I’d like to start with a simple but
deep question: What is your relationship
to beauty? Some people aren’t that big on fashion, art or ambience. Others
can almost become ill when their surroundings aren’t lovely and harmonious.
Where are you on this continuum?
2.
Now let’s get a line on the Goddess Venus. Tap
into your search engine and explore Venus
mythology. What do you learn that stands out to you? That you’d like to
explore deeper when you’ve got more time?
3.
The beauty aspects of Venus are very visual, so
while you’re searching for her online, check out Venus images. What image or images of Venus appeal to you most?
Why?
4.
About your Venus and its sign:
a.
Does your Venus sign, in your opinion, make the
realm of Venus easy to navigate or is it more challenging? Why?
b.
Which aspect of Venus is “your thing?” There are
several major ones to choose from: relationships, beauty and the trio of peace,
justice and fairness.
c.
What’s the element of your Venus? (Earth, Air,
Fire or Water) Is it simple or challenging to do Venusian things with this
element?
d.
How does your Venus blend with the planets we’ve
explored so far?
e.
How many planets make a major aspect to your Venus?
[1]
f.
How many of the planets are in close aspect,
within 3 degrees or less?
g.
Do these aspects make “doing Venus things”
easier or more challenging?
5.
What were your earliest experiences of the facet
of Venus you chose in 4b?
Extra Experience:
Whatever your favorite Venus topic was in 4b, choose a different one for this
experience. Here are your choices:
Relationships –
Remember your very first, foundational relationship. What were the most
important things you learned?
Beauty—Two
choices: Explore when you feel beautiful and how feeling beautiful makes you
feel. Or explore some artwork today and write about its emotional impact on
you.
Peace/Justice/Fairness—Which
if these three words is most important to you? Recall an incident where one of
these words was the “star” and briefly tell about it.
Hope to see you on the pier next week when we fish for Mars
and Jupiter.
