Venus in Aries
Venus adopts a solo vibe while in Aries, so you may prefer to spend more time luxuriating in your own passion pursuits, rather than accommodating the wants or demands of others.

Fresh from the Autumn/Spring equinox, this lunation emphasises what my first astrology teacher described as the ‘me vs. we’ dynamic. For anyone who has the polarity of Aries/Libra as a feature of their chart, or has the Sun, Moon or ascendant in those signs, finding the balance between the needs of relationship (Libra) and the needs of the individual (Aries) can often be a constant battle.
I learned that my life wasn’t about someone else’s permission, pace or approval. My happiness was mine alone and I sure as hell wasn’t going to slow down or wait for others.
Sun brings the Autumn Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere as well as the beginning of the astrological New Year with the ingress of the Sun in Pisces.
After a month long sojourn in the murky depths of the ocean, the Sun will rise, jubilant in the fire and glory in its sign of exaltation. Signalling the beginning of the tropical zodiac, the Sun in Aries offers a fresh start if the promises or resolutions of the New Year flagged or failed.
The complexity of the ‘me vs. we’ in relationships will be highlighted as the Moon in Aries wants sovereignty and the Sun in Libra seeks togetherness. Mercury and Jupiter also in the sign of the scales suggests that sometimes the biggest awakenings come in the form a change in perspective.
Today sees Venus reach 18 degrees which was the degree of the Solar Eclipse back on March 9. You may experience a re-visit of issues, especially regarding themes of release, letting go and then finally, new beginnings.
This weeks astro weather brings a plethora of energy to the heavens. Key players this week are Mercury and Venus and with a Lunar Eclipse in the middle of it all, this week may end up very different to how it started.
