It’s Taurus Season!
Taurus is the sign of grounded love, art, money, beauty, and the finer things in life (including rich food and drink!).
Taurus is resilient, persistent, and pushes through. Taurus is sensual, of the earth. Taurus is your rock, stable and unflinching in its desire.
This is a great time to reinforce or start a diet, revitalize your financial situation, and bring beauty and love into your home!
A good mantra for when things are not going your way and you need to settle your mind.
I know I’m not happy with what’s here, but I just need to sit with it and then it’ll be clear. ~ Abella Arthur
Hope your day is filled with wonder, glee, and remember to smile and appreciate the little things that make you happy! ♥
Happiness is remembering to smile, and appreciate all the little things. ~ Abella Arthur
Anxiety is the response from attempting to control a situation that you feel is not in your control. ~ Abella Arthur
Anxiety is the response from attempting to get away from something, someone, or somewhere that isn’t making you feel comfortable. ~ Abella Arthur
Better to name your feeling, and get to the bottom of what you’re really feeling and what you really believe and why — then do something about it. No stiff upper lips (causing anxiety so you’re forced to fight or flight) if you want to do away with anxiety!
For example, I was on the bus today and I was feeling antsy. I realized that I didn’t like the smell. Then I realized that’s why I didn’t want to be there. So I was causing myself to be anxious so that I’d hightail it off the bus and walk (flight). Why did I want to make myself anxious? Because I didn’t want to actually get ‘off’ of the bus’ and walk such a distance at that time. I wanted out of the undesirable environment but my normally logical self wasn’t going to go for that (I wanted to get home, taking the bus) so I caused myself to get anxious.
When I figured out what a sneaky trick my head was playing on me, I just got up and moved to an open window to get some fresh air and was conscious to that being my only reason. Then I transported myself into another space and time and got on with the bus ride!
Oh, and now I know when I’ve used Bath and Body antibacterial soap in public spaces I suddenly felt better. LOL… Who knew I was so fussy and finicky (my Virgo stellium) or had my nose soaked in roses (my Jupiter / Uranus Libra)?! I didn’t.
And this is what happened because I kept myself smelling good, didn’t get out of the house often enough to expose myself to foul odors from not only people, but vehicle fumes, etc.., and didn’t want to face the truth about the rat race — basically it smells like a sewer!
So another anxiety solution is to expose oneself to necessary but nasty situations and find something enjoyable about it.
I’ll share more about anxiety in future blog posts!
If compromises are fair and logically sound (Libra) in a relationship, they’ll be loved down the road and no one will have felt they gave anything up.
(Note: Saturn Libra is currently at 25° Rx and is opposite Sun Aries 29° and will soon be (by next week) in trine with Venus Gemini, currently at 12°. I figured I ought to check this since I’ve written so much about Venus and Saturn lately and what do you know — the planets are talking again!! :-D)
Yesterday I wrote about Saturn’s role in synastry. Today, I’ll write about one of the biggest aspects that keep lovers apart.
Since I don’t have a lot of time these days, I’ll make it quick. However, do remember that I offer professional consultations and an appointment can be set-up with me so that I can read your chart in the very personal way it’s meant to be read. It’s a treat!
“With this being my very first professional reading, Abella was very thorough in her
approach and very helpful in educating me in areas that needed to be addressed. I
felt very comfortable with her style as she has an ease about her as if I have known
her all my life. I will continue to consult with Abella and will recommend her to
fellow star gazers!” – Recent Testimonial…

Now on to my thought about Venus Square Saturn in synastry especially if there’s a twin aspect (Your Venus Squares their Saturn and vice versa).
Bottom-line? No-go for most.
Saturn in square with Venus is saying: You have responsibilities, commitments, and duty to another love. You can not get into a new relationship with Venus until your prior hardships (including financial) and karma are fulfilled.
This aspect, in synastry, is telling the Saturn person that they need to have integrity, that they may be too mature and serious for the Venus person, and that if they want Venus bad enough they’ll have to take the high road and proceed with caution and due diligence.
The Saturn person passes this message on to Venus very subtly, almost to the point of not acknowledging what’s going on between them because the Saturn person dare not suggest something out of line or they may suffer dire consequences and potentially, humiliation.
Time and patience are required. And the road is long and hard should you desire someone who has Saturn in aspect to your Venus and vice versa.
Saturn needs to be true and faithful to himself (herself) and others (Libra exalted) in order for anything to work out with Venus. Venus must not ignore this need, and test — that Saturn endures.
If you’re the Venus and you want a pretty, ideal picture of a normal relationship with a Saturn in square — you likely won’t get it in the short term (if ever).
But in the end, it’s always our choice and karma to do what we will. Just be prepared and plan for the challenges and inevitable obstacles ahead!
