“the role of the lover is exactly the same as the role of the artist. if i love you, i must make you aware of the things you do not see.”

“you have to go the way your blood beats. if you don’t live the only life you have, you won’t live some other life, you won’t live any life at all.”

You attract what you are and you create what you think about. Act like the person you want to become. Think like the person you want to become. Nothing changes in your life unless you make the decision and commitment to change it. Hold an image in your mind of how you wish to see yourself living. Visualize it everyday and you will unconsciously start to do things that will move you towards that goal.

Venus in Leo;

Venus in Leo is a queen in Leo. Her crown is made of liquid gold, and its radiance is said to open the curtains of night itself. She’s known for the glorious balls she arranges in summer, where all honourable personalities of the kingdom gather in reckless celebration.

Those born with their Venus in Leo are charming and captivating. Their ability to produce relationships with surrounding people and objects is blessed by Leo’s brightness of the self, and Venus thrives in this stunning combination. Here, she is enchanted by the star that shines within herself and is even more fascinated when she finds people that share the brightness of their star too.

As a queen, Venus in Leo seems to always be surrounded by brilliant, powerful people. The brilliance of her affection is warm and embraces those in her company, magnifying their importance and their individual lights. As Leo is the sign of creative, sunny love, Venus is very comfortable here and deals rather naturally with love adventures and affairs where she can exert her power. Relationships are a way to nourish the inner star with other people’s admiration and praise, and, conceptually, Venus here enjoys taking control and ruling over the relationship in some way. This, of course, is subject to how this Venus interacts with other planets and angles, but nevertheless the individual likes projecting themselves in this position.

The Sun is a generous star, and with his blessings Venus in Leo also lends her brilliance, sharing her stage with others. Her lovers and friends find that their importance is exalted when in this Venus’ company, and they, too, become powerful and admirable.

Artistic expression is favoured in this placement, as the self is in love with its beautiful ways of expressing itself creatively and adores seeing it reflected in the outside, especially if that’ll draw people’s attention or admiration. Moreover, Venus in Leo is at ease when dealing with children and can easily jump into their sunlit world because of her natural happiness and her way of creating pleasure in all things.

I dont think you've done it yet but could you do virgo rising culture?💕unless of course it's too much

Hands down my favourite Rising! ❤️That's right I SAID it. 😬

Might be because of my own Scorpio Rising. We both be acting suspicious and trying to constantly “read” everyone and their intentions.

I also noticed there's strong polarity with them too in a way. People would either instantly like their analytical nature or not at all.

VIRGO RISING

📖what you give is what you get, they are surprisingly big on fairness

📖were picked on by others in their early environment, so now they pavloved themselves that is better to keep to themselves

📖the one to immediately understand what Pavlov means

📖they read a lot as a child

📖their daily routine, certain habits are considerered eccentric and unusual by others

📖don't move their stuff, because they know EXACTLY where they put it

📖there's just something unusual, weird and creepy about their neighbours

📖the type prone to fighting and conflicts with their partners in marriage

📖they just want to be seen as bright, communicative, smart, knowledgable and well read

📖straight cut nose, a somewhat »analytical«

📖you will notice them by their sparklings, wondering, curious eyes

📖those eyes be observing and judging you AT THE SAME TIME

📖they might get this impression like they are squeezing their eyes, because they try to read everything and everyone

📖the type to get annoyed when someone chews gums when talking to them, they find that offensive and disrespectful

📖the time to do a task YESTERDAY

📖in their dreams they are their own rock star

📖they might have travelled a lot early on, have a certain religious background or big, extended family

📖the one to point out your flaws and you start to question your whole existence

📖they have very nurturing, caring friends who provide for them

📖they might not like romantic relationships, because they are too afraid they will loose themselves in them

virgo rising: part of that airy, enigmatic, flighty trickery is their gemini midheaven, there’s a bit more mischief in these eyes, calling them from multiple directions at once with all of the figures and images of who they could be. part of that rather more ravishing and tragic love story than virgo suns is their pisces descendant, uncorking love and bottling common sense, they can really really lose their boundaries, but relationships are portals to inner worlds unknown and true, immortal soul connections. and part of their trouble settling their nerves, mind, and body is their sagittarius ic that makes the future and every scenario it could bring both exhilarating and anxiety-inducing, it’s an uncontainable spirit that does everything possible to stop them staying grounded and planning out a life, if they dont have an intercepted house

you have to give up your old life in order to immerse yourself in a new one. i’ve found that i am shedding old layers of myself. peeling off old, wilted petals. uncovering the new me by letting the old me die. sometimes it’s not always a quick death, but a slow & painful one. we feel everything, witness everything crumbling around us, but i am learning that death is a form of creation. the old me must die so i can become the me i am meant to be.
