sign (Libra) and planet (Venus)
previously associated with, now being
replaced by, the new planetary
character. As a Goddess of Justice, Eris
clearly symbolizes the masculine
warrior side of Venus, and Her ability to
use strategy and guile to achieve
balance at all cost. The rationale
behind this change in rulership is the
stuff of a future article. For now, suffice
it to say, our understanding of Venus,
and the work of this retrograde cycle, is
greatly enhanced by focusing on Her
areas of rulership aligned with earthy,
practical Taurus. This particular
retrograde cycle begins in Aries, the
Warrior Goddess aspect of Venus, and
carries us back into Pisces, Her most
unconditionally loving and vulnerable
visage. Issues of self-worth and self-
esteem loom large as we actively
engage in the process of re-evaluating
that which we deem to have worth and
value in our lives. Most people have
been engaged in some form of an
identity crisis for quite some time now,
with Chiron in Aries since 2018 and the
Moon’s North Node transiting Aries
since 2023. We’ve invested a lot of
energy in redefining ourselves and
navigating resistance to a new sense of
Self encountered by those heavily
invested in the old version of Self.
