Today, Venus Retrograde re-entered the sign of her Exaltation, Pisces. Venus’ energies are very potent in the sign of Pisces. Venus also conjunct Neptune this morning. We will continue to feel the energies of this potent conjunction well into the weekend. Neptune is changing signs from the water element into the fire element over the weekend (expect a blog on Saturday explaining what that means for you).

It's interesting to note that before Neptune changes signs from Pisces, where it has been since 2011 and moves into Aries where it will stay for the next 14 years, the planets meets with Venus, the North Node of Fate and Mercury before it crosses the threshold into a new region of the Zodiac Wheel. Pay close attention to what insights, dreams, inspirations and clarity is entering your consciousness from today and into next week. These energies are bringing power spiriutal lessons our way.

I’ve been praying for insights into what these energies mean and how to best use them to help me and others around me. And this morning I received two insights which I will share with you:

Insight one:

This morning as I practicing Yoga at the gym. I noticed another girl (which is rare) in the stretching room with me also practicing Yoga on a far corner from where I was. I smiled because it made me happy to see another person practicing Yoga besides me. Most people enter the room to work on weights. Suddenly, I noticed she immediately went into headstand pose without warming up. As a Yoga Teacher, I gasp and freak out when I see people do that, because I always think “safety first.” I’ve been trained that it is safer to enter headstand after the body has been warmed up. I thought, “let me mind my own business and continue to work on my sequence”. I wouldn’t stop thinking about it. So I paused and I realized the Angels where showing me that she was mirroring something about me. I paused and listened to my inner knowing and this question came forth: Am I thinking of my safety when I enter Yoga poses? And I was surprised to hear no. No, I wasn’t. Earlier in the morning, my body felt achy and tired and I continued anyways.  I love Yoga so much that I hate to miss a day. But my body wanted me to slow down. Take it easy. So, once I realized the message the Universe was giving me. I changed my tempo. I changed the sequences of what I was doing and allowed my body to guide me. I slowed down and moved slowly. And then I remember that the message for me in the last couple of weeks from the Universe has been to be more Yin. More gentle. And here was the reminder again. So what does this have to do with Neptune and Venus?

Venus is symbolic of our Heart’s wisdom. Neptune is symbolic of the spiritual teaching of surrendering to the Divine. The teaching this morning from the girl that came into the room to practice yoga, was for me to practice surrender into the wisdom of my heart and body. To listen when my body wants me to slow down. To be gentle with myself and most importantly with my body. In many ways, the real teaching was for my head to bow to my heart. That’s the image the Angels gave me: Bow your mind, to your heart. God is in our hearts. Our Soul speaks to us through our hearts. I realized that I can get so driven and passionate about things that I forget to slow down and pay attention to my body and what it needs. Venus and Neptune conjunct this morning, taught me self-compassion, self-kindness and surrender into Yin energy. I will be practicing more yin awareness this week to help me soften into the Venus-Neptune energies.

Insight two:

When I’m done with the gym, I come home and eat breakfast with my doggie. It used to be that I would give him his plate and I would eat my breakfast on the table. But as of lately, he wants me to hand-feed him his breakfast instead. I have to be honest; I am not the most patient of people. This has been a learning curve, especially when I’m hungry because I get hangry lol. So, I’ve been praying to God for patience, tolerance and kindness.

So, this morning, as I was driving home from the gym, I kept praying to God to teach me more about how to let my heart receive the energies of Neptune conjunct Venus. When I got home, my prayers were answered. I was impatient to eat and my doggie was hungry too. But instead of getting annoyed, I felt my heart open, and I surrendered to what is. This is our new reality together. I embraced fully this morning.

I sat down on the floor with him as I had since this new pattern began. I’ve been working on teaching myself to use both of my hands (I’m right-handed) so I can feed him with one and eat myself from the other. Today, I was able to do both successfully. I was able to feed him with one hand and feed myself with the other. Of course we make a mess of the floor lol. But as I have gotten use to it, I don’t mind anymore and just clean it all up when its over.

What I found miraculous this morning, is the happiness and peace and surrender I felt in my heart as I did it. As I feed him. As I enjoyed our time together. As I realized it was a gift from God. A gift to be able to have that intimate, sharing moment with him. I realized that God was giving me an opportunity to love him by feeding him by hand. It was teaching me patience, tolerance and most importantly genuine kindness. I’m vegan and trust me it’s not easy for me to eat my food when I have to touch meat (that’s what he eats). But my love for him is so strong that I don’t care and do so willingly and lovingly. I felt a deep surrender this morning into our new morning ritual. And this is the teaching of Neptune and Venus. Surrender to love. Do things with love…with patience…with kindness. Focus on what truly matters most in your life.

Neptune teaches us about compassion, empathy and surrender. Venus teach us about Unconditional Love. The Love that binds us, that connects us to our loved ones…the Love in the Universe that connects all beings with each other. Notice how Neptune and Venus are showing up in your life today and into the weekend. Notice their Teachings. Perhaps a question to ask yourself is: how can I be more loving? more kind? more gentle? with myself and with others? I hope this helps you in someway.

Expect another blog on Saturday on Neptune in Aries and its impact for the next 14 years. Thank you for your support. Follow me for more @anamariapinedacom and http://www.anamariapineda.com
