On October 23rd-24th, Venus retrograde is conjunct the Sun at 0° Scorpio, and a new Venus cycle begins.
This is the midpoint of the Venus retrograde and the moment when Venus crosses over from evening star to morning star.
This is the last Venus cycle to start in Scorpio for a very long time. Venus’ dance in the sky follows an 8-year rhythm – she returns to retrograde in the same sign every 8 years, for about 100 years.
Venus began this Scorpio story in 1930, and since then, every 8 years, she has come back to meet the Sun in Scorpio – each time a couple of degrees earlier in the sign.
This Venus cycle that starts on October 23-24, 2026 is the last one. At 0° Scorpio.
A story that has been weaving for 100 years comes to an end.
Scorpio is a tough school for Venus’ heart. In Scorpio, Venus learned how to hold still, how to go deep. She learned about all the Scorpio virtues – trust, depth, and loyalty…
…but the trust, the depth, the loyalty were not given. They were earned.
Trust was earned through fear.
Depth was carved by intense experiences of love, but also loss.
Loyalty was tested through betrayal.
Because how can we understand what these things truly mean if we don’t go to the source? If we don’t explore the full spectrum of experience?
Over the 100 years, our great-grandmothers, our grandmothers, our mothers – and now us – have been taking Scorpio’s medicine.
Perhaps it started with women losing their men and sons to war – and the lesson was that loss was the price of love. So the body made sure the hurt was remembered.
Perhaps it started with hardship, when resources were scarce, so you had to get strong, hold on to what you had, or sacrifice what you wanted for security.
Perhaps it started with abuse, and the memory remained frozen over years and decades, passed on in silences and warnings so that the children would remember and know how to protect themselves.
Your fear is not (only) your fear – it’s your parents’, grandparents’, and great-grandparents’ fear.
Your unworthiness is not (only) your unworthiness – it is a deep, unhealed longing for security, devotion, and the certainty that you matter enough for someone to stay.
Your grief is not (only) your grief – it’s your parents’, grandparents’, and great-grandparents’, from a time when it was safer to hold on and survive than to feel.
Now you’ve done the work. All these Scorpio lessons have been distilled, Venus star point after Venus star point, until the very essence is all that’s left.
The journey in the underworld was long and dark – there was no compass, no light to guide us, just more and more digging, more and more peeling back the layers, more and more coming face to face with what we had buried.
And here we are – with Venus cazimi at 0° Scorpio, the very last Scorpio Venus star point.
All this carrying ends now. It ends with you.
But the slate won’t be wiped clean. We won’t just leave it all behind and start anew. That’s not the point.
All that 100-year journey through the underworld hasn’t been for nothing. We didn’t do all this just as a “test” or some sort of wicked joke the universe played on us.
Just like the greatest riches lie buried deep in the earth, there are things we have discovered in the depths that we can now bring back with us: the strength of loyalty, the courage it takes to trust, the depth of a connection that can hold the truth.
Your mother, your grandmother, and your great-grandmother have all carried a piece of this story so you can get there – to the very essence of it…
…so you can find the diamond that they didn’t live to see. The road was paved by them, so you can reach this point and choose what happens next.
And now, with this alchemized essence of Scorpio love, you can bring the trust, the vulnerability, the loyalty, the depth of connection into the airy light of Libra.
8 years from now, a new 100-year Libra cycle will start, and the Scorpio treasures will find expression in clear communication, equal relationships, in cardinal agency and the recognition that we are the heroes and heroines of our own lives.
As we stand at the threshold of degree zero, take Scorpio’s gift with you.
It starts with you.
