From Dana Gerhardt’s Your Venus Unleashed report:
If only astrologers would stop maligning wonderful Venus in Virgo! Don’t think of her as a cold, constricted and barren goddess—or an uptight, disapproving school marm. According to the Sumerians, Venus (as Inanna/Ishtar) was most fertile in Virgo. See if you can discover why. Tune into her sensuous ease. Experience the way she enjoys her own nakedness. How she loves the natural world. That’s because she has an eye for quality. Let her discernment increase the quality of your own life. If you have clothes with uncomfortable textures, give them away. Everything should feel good or it shouldn’t be in your wardrobe. Cleanse your palate with a one or two day fast. Then notice the foods you habitually eat. Do they really taste good? Quality foods taste good. Let this Venus introduce you to the rich storehouse of the natural world.
Venus in Virgo invocation by Jessica Shepherd
Like Botticelli’s Birth of Venus, I materialize out of the mists of the perfect Eternal to a pile of problems and an Earth in crisis. Sigh. I remember perfection… so let me show you what I can do. Let me seduce you with my ability to make your life better. Let me tackle your toughest conundrum while you marvel at my finesse and competence. Notice my efficiency, determination. See how capable I am. With me, your garden will grow greener, your pets will be healthier and everything will run much more smoothly. Let’s make the world a better place, together. I’m in your service, Venus in Virgo.
