They Can’t Walk In My Shoes
A perspective on the recent Venus opposite Saturn transit.
From August 26 — September 1st, this energy could feel strong. However, it’s not like when the transit is over, everything dissipates. It is then integrated into the consciousness of the psyche, and for those not paying attention…it becomes a subject to their energy field that they are unaware of. Yet, it still affects them.

Venus in Leo is authentic self-expression. It is the value and worth you put on your soul purpose. It becomes the price you put on your creative abilities, which price and abilities may come in many forms. When we experience Venus in astrology, we see the value of ourselves and experience a sense of that perspective through relationships with others. The groups, communities, friends, lovers, and partnerships we choose shine a light upon ourselves. It is up to the individual to perceive what kind of light is being shown.
Saturn in Aquarius, now retrograde, is forming a container on these groups. Yet, this container won’t last long. It’s like a cheap Tupperware that eventually cracks when the water gets too hot. This is what we will experience with Saturn in Aquarius, opposite Venus. The groups we once thought were a part of our higher vision, the communities we wanted to shine our light into, and the value we put into some states of authority, society, partnerships, and the like are changing if it doesn’t make the individual feel connected, authentic, loved or good. It might require breaking away to find that value and worth.

I stepped away in some areas of my life when I saw this show up within my psyche. I have a depth of knowledge so hard for me to speak in words, for how can one hold so much knowledge and weight of consciousness concerning people and the world, then put it in a few sentences? When the pain, trauma, and emotions of everyone around me are so incredibly and pristinely clear to my vision, and yet there is no one I know who can relate.
My sense of the value depicted by the reflection of certain things opposing me was casting shadows, not light. I need to feed into energy that makes me glow, not aspects of life that suck my wisdom and energy dry. It requires parts of me to walk alone.
I wasn’t angry; I just became at peace that my higher mission must mostly be walked alone and separated from these aspects of life. There are things we are meant to experience as individuals because they are meant for us only. That is soul mission and soul purpose.
As the next few days go by, and you also feel alone on your mission…my guidance for you is this.
Walk it alone. Be brave, know your value and always see the reflection of yourself. From there, you can feel empowered against the disingenuous. You are guided by things that are beyond what consciousness can see. Ultimately, if you desire to leave any gift to humanity, you must first give that gift to yourself.
