Venus and the Sun come together for a conjunction on June 4th at 8:32 am PDT and 11:32 am EDT. This is called the Venus Star Point (VSP). This begins a new cycle or phase. There is a Venus Sun conjunction about every 9 months. This is an opportunity to get in touch with your feminine side in a powerful way.
What is the Venus Star Point?
The exact zodiacal degree & minute of a Sun and Venus conjunction (meeting in the sky to begin a new cycle). The Venus Star Point (VSP) is a concept that Arielle Guttman developed. For more information see Arielle’s book “Venus Star Rising: A New Cosmology for the Twenty-First Century. Both the retrograde (morning star) and direct (evening star) conjunctions are equally important. Further emphasizing the dual nature of Venus.
The Venus Star Point moves backwards through the zodiac or signs. Each VSP moves about two degrees backwards. Taking 250 years of Sun Venus conjunctions to travel through the twelve signs of the zodiac. The Venus Star Point remains in one zodiacal sign for 100 years and then is absent for 150 years. Five of the zodiac signs are active at one time.
