Libra season has had us all flying around being a bunch of social butterflies, but have you had any one on one time with your loved ones?
If not, today would be a good day to ask your closest friends, family, or partner what you can do for them. Venus in Virgo asks you to be of service!
Astrological Energy Shift: Venus in Virgo October 2, 2020 – October 27, 2020
When an Earth sign and Venus meet, the energy can seem to clash (unless Taurus energy is present, of course).
Earth signs are known for being extremely practical, focused on the physical and material world, and they like stability.
Venus, on the other hand, is much more feminine, free-flowing, and urges anyone who comes into contact with it to tango with their emotions.
While Taurus has the planetary ruler Venus which can make it a lot easier to attract love and abundance into your life, Virgo is ruled by Mercury, a very mentally stimulating sign.
However, if we’re speaking in practical terms, Virgo is more than capable of showing love and affection.
When Venus enters the sign of Virgo, the idea of love becomes very realistic and matter of fact.
While you may normally like to show your loved ones how much you care with grand gestures, Virgo will urge you to think about what they may need rather than what they may want.
Are you familiar with the five love languages?
One of them is acts of service, or doing something that will relieve the stress of the people closest to you. A little extra thoughtfulness here can go a long way!
Maximize This Energy
Now that the Sun is in Libra, everyone is making meaningful connections with people around them.
This is especially true since Saturn went direct in Capricorn just a few days ago. The cosmic energy is picking up surrounding everyone’s work, career, and social life.
Something that’s very practical to do for someone you care about is to contribute towards their passion projects and/or work life.
Everyone has goals. Who better to know what your family, friends, or partner needs than you?
By simply taking a moment to think about how you can be of service in this way, you could really help catapult the people closest to you in a positive direction!
Go Deeper
Have you ever looked at your natal Venus placement in your birth chart? What about your significant other’s Venus placement?
By taking a moment to see which house both of your natal Venus placement are in as well as the planets that may be close by, you can get a better feel for how you and your partner naturally approach love from giving to receiving it.
As pragmatic as Venus in Virgo tries to be, you still have a big chance to show how romantic you can be!
Today’s Affirmation:
“I will utilize the energy of Venus in Virgo to think deeply about how I can show love in service to others and in a way that is meaningful to them. And I will see what practical things I can do to express love for myself as well.”
