9.7.2026 Defining your dreams

Venus in Virgo

Neptune retrograde in Aries

Mercury retrograde in Cancer

There are so many lingering feelings that have been stirred over the last week especially with the Uranus/Mars conjunction in Cancer. The full moon in Capricorn a few days before shifted a foundation of what we believed we had to build as our future perhaps? Now we have Venus moving from Leo into Virgo and it’s in its ‘fall’ or ‘detriment’. It weakens the effect of Venus but in Virgo (ruled by Mercury now in retrograde) we also have a deep insight into our wounds and our patterns.

We are being asked to take a journey with the divine feminine into how we communicated with our hearts? How we may have kept secret our real identity so as to avoid being shamed or blamed! In whatever area of your life this will show itself in the coming days especially as we build in energy to the Nodes changing from Virgo/Pisces to Aquarius/Leo at the end of the month. This refers to our destiny and journey of karma (North and South Nodes). Where are you headed? You won’t know just yet as we are all in a space of being up in the air! We do have Uranus in Gemini (an air sign) and it is now with Mars there so it will keep us on our toes and ensure sudden bursts of insights that reveal how we take the next step.

But there are still old wounds we have to let go of and surrender to and they may relate to the ancient path we have navigated with the male energy (whether we man or woman) but also how we compromised our innate intuitive self so as to not challenge those in authority. The wounds of the Piscean age are showing up and it’s the last roundup of old dogma being shown as male manipulation imbalanced in both male and female. The wounds of the feminine are self inflicted to a certain degree and that is hard to accept perhaps but the door to freedom is ajar and we have to step through – even if we kick and scream!

The heart link is the Mother’s calling card and she is asking us – no matter what you are shown now – trust the feeling. The heart does not lie when it reacts with openness. Trust the message of your own heart – and do not react over emotionally as that is the heart rushing to the head! We have been taught that we are too sensitive and too dream like as women especially but we are more than that we are holding the codes of Mother in our hearts and they are descending into the atmosphere with Venus as she descends into Virgo!

Trust the next step when it feels it is something you cannot not take!
