Oct. 9th, Venus♀︎ conjunct☌ fixed star Regulus [Alpha Leonis] (both in Virgo♍︎)

Meeting with one of the royal stars, who represents revenge, this ♀︎ ☌ highlights pettiness in social / political circles. This is energy that can define a generation, as each side accuses the other of horrible crimes while perpetuating a cycle of retribution.

This is shown now in virtually every country in the world, as political parties squabble like children over pettiness, while the people suffer from situations like food shortages, and unequal access to other human rights.

The brightest star in (the constellation, not the sign) of Leo and closest to our Sun, Regulus is an either toxic or divine masculine energy, depending on how it’s functioning and how we work with it. He can represent fortune, courage and success, but whose? The “elites”, or the people?

In his strength, he represents the healing of Archangel Raphael (one of the four horseman of the apocalypse); a master in all types of healing, yet His dark side can manifest in narcissism as he becomes an energy of petty revenge for those so inclined. This can be an extremely violent or otherwise destructive energy at its worst, if it’s authoritative, military-type energy is twisted.

The personal challenge is to work with these masculine energies within each of us (all females included) in ways which are to our Highest Good, by boldly standing up for what’s right even amidst an excess of toxicity. In ♍︎ on both the masculine and on ♀︎’s feminine side, ideally this transit means finding what is emotionally pure, yet mental based and details oriented, and cultivating that into the right types of action.

Realistically, this transit will commonly express through unexpected occurrences, including violent social confrontations, and unhealthy love attachments. This can also lead to falls from grace for those who try to avoid the results of their unethical decisions. Public karma can be the most embarrassing of bitches.

Regulus represents influence, glory and riches for those who are karmically and actively a harmonic match for His energy, and along with ♀︎ representing finances, this will be intensely good for some, in contrast to the dissonant situations others will experience.

Keyword: Glorification

Harmonically, this is a completely selfless dedication to dramatic service to humanity, and when expressed through dissonance, it manifests misdirected, pretentious efforts of little lasting worth.

Deeper allegiances must be uncompromising, morally courageous, and transcendent, in psychological fearlessness as a corrective to that which is maladjust both within and through society. This can create an exalted sense of spiritual belonging.
