Description
Venus, the planet of love, beauty, pleasure, indulgence and wealth.
The fourth Personal Planet, it represents the approach to relationships and leisure, as well as attraction and the spending of money. It also represents self-indulgence, shallowness and self-centredness to watch out for.
Ruler of Taurus and Libra, it has its exaltation in Pisces, fall in Virgo, detriment in Aries and Scorpio.
Its glyph represents Aphrodite’s hand mirror, and its meaning is Spirit presiding over Matter.
There you have it, my pretties: my first photo which is not a self-portrait since last November and, more importantly, since covid. It’s an allegory of the significance of Venus in astrology and totally not the first entry of yet another long-term series by the title of Wandering Stars.
You can learn more about this photo, as usual, on my blog.
