Venus Superior Conjunction-Path of Deep Trust

Picture from Pintrest. Artist currently unknown.

When Venus is on the Far Side of the Sun, she is furthest from Earth. The Sun's Rays somewhat occluding her influence on earth.

It's always deeply felt in the interior realms for me. A vague sense of displacement. A lack of immediate access to an ever present, living, source of love.

Not everyone will feel this way.

But for those of us who do, What do we do when we feel cut off from a living source of love?

This is the practice mat for me in regards to self holding and the path of deep trust.

Trust that the Mystery Herself is the Great Mother, and at no time am I actually cut off from her benevolence. Even if “it seems that way”.

It’s the principle of trust that even if “mother/lover leaves, they are always coming back” and we are always etherically connected.

Quantum entangled, if you will. We are always being held in a state of profound grace. We cannot be abandoned. Not by Her.

However, separation is a deep wound at the heart of our current humanity.

Loss of connection.

It is intrinsic to the collective pain body, and can evoke a sense of almost existential grief. Where we feel a tinge of longing for something elusive rather than tangible.

In this period, it is common to feel a sense of loss for something we can’t quite put our finger on. It’s just there, operating in the background. Low grade sadness.

If you are feeling this way, I want to reassure you that it’s a normal occurrence during Venus’ Superior Conjunction.

Which makes it a phenomenal time to do grief work with the deeper thing underneath. The nameless, wordless, nonlinear, inexplicable, pains that feel as though they were almost seeded in another time or dimension.

Through Paradox Venus reveals her Underworld Curriculum.

She is asking us to work with and hold paradox, complexity, nuance all over the place. To stop boiling our inner and outer world down to false binaries.

But rather to hold Two Truths at once.

The apparent truth, and the deeper truth.

Source, and Anti-source are one.

Her quality of “here, not here”.

Separate, but “can never be separate”.

Along with the mysteries of death, She also reveals through the quality of eternity, an everlasting, ever renewing life.

And it is TRUST and relaxing or surrendering into the nature of cycles, having faith in their benevolent grace, that we are carried through the darkness.

She asks a lot of us in this period. Remember, the throne room is where Erishkagel is giving birth.

In order for us to give birth to what we incarnated to embody….

To hold the BIG LOVE….

We must surrender known attachments and projections that are preventing Her current from moving through us.

She asks, to Surrender our preferences to how things “should be”.

To give up entitlements. To stop grabbing for scraps.

So we might finally step into the bigger thing.

The bigger love.

The inexhaustible connection we all have to the benevolence of the Universe.

What exists beyond separation. Beyond paradox. Beyond duality.

Birth, Grief, Surrender, and Trust, go hand and hand. As a birth doula, and mother of four, ask me how I know these things are inexorably intertwined.

What we ultimately conceive in the throne room initiation, is the ability to hold more Truth and LOVE. Because we've made space in the letting go. The falling away. The things we've honored and put to rest. The dying.

Truth and love are the substances of healing, wholeness, and authenticity.

Venus Underworld Work is deep, profound, life & death affirming work.

Many deep bows for those who are in the trenches, on the Path of Deep Trust.
