Soul Up with Kailean Welsh

Change doesn't happen overnight. Often the patterns go deep and become so ingrained they become part of the fabric of society. This week we experience a Venus Star Point that concludes a 100-year-old pattern. It marks the final point in a cultural shifting in the way we view love, power, relationships, and feminine energy. Yet to get to the new perspective, we got some deep clearing to do,

Venus, the planet of love and feminine energy, brings difficult questions into the darkness of the Libra New Moon. What do balance, justice, and harmony really mean in our current culture? Through the symbolism of this powerful lunation, we explore sexual violence, accountability, and the patterns that allow harm to continue. These are difficult conversations that touch many lives, leaving many feeling powerless. But what happens when we stop looking away?

The world looks pretty messy—not newly spiritualized or in alignment with high consciousness or the Age of Aquarius, so for this episode I reached out to my wise woman friend Robin Ann Reid for her insight, She raised some intriguing ideas about what we are here to do on the planet and the difference each one of us can make. Making a difference might be less complicated and more fun than we think.

The seasons are changing and life is moving at an electrifying pace. It can be challenging to find the time, space, and bandwidth to relieve the pressure as we settle into fall routines and the Virgo need to get our lives in order on a personal level. At the same time as the atmospheric tension plays out on the world stage like a world pressure cooker as the US/global political scene intensifies. It's a time period that requires conscious engagement, and maybe a reminder that there is cosmic support.

The cosmic energy is swirling as we settle into the heart of the summer season. Opportunity and luck abounds if we have the confidence and presence to claim it. And it's not just this week. Much is happening and life is full as all the signs point to a relaunch of civilization with markers in place for years to come.

The month of May comes to a close with a second full moon. It is an auspicious moon, known as The Festival of Humanity. In the spirit of goodwill and connection we recognize that we all in this together. We are in a space of transformation, growing in consciousness, looking at the same sky.

The intense forces of change and rebirth are hard at it as the Aries crowd powers up the atmosphere. These planetary forces are queued up and in the process of bringing a new identity into reality. We've seen enough of the wounds and misdirections of our past. It's time to shift to the healing. We have cosmic support to do the work we've been avoiding.

Newness and adventure are in the energy this week, as the Full Moon in Libra comes the same day as the April Fool and carries the spiritual growth of Sirius, our Spiritual Sun. Venus leads the way for all of them, offering a calmer space to rest a moment as the rest of the cosmic gang finish their visionary work in Pisces and come alive with the action and enthusiasm of Aries fire.

Spring is such a feel-good season. By late winter, life can feel stagnant and stuck. And then spring comes. Spirits lighten as the days lengthen and earth comes back to life. We, like all life on the planet, feel that same rhythm in our bones. We reap so many benefits when we consciously align ourself with the energy of the season.

With Spring Equinox right over the horizon, the cosmic flows are making a clean sweep into Aries, bring humanity into a new sense of identity. Venus is bold, bringing in a powerful flow of feminine energy to a world in need. Are we on the edge of something new?
