Unlock Your Feminine Power With Astrology
Your astrology chart is a treasure map of your soul’s highest potential and your heart’s deepest desires. It is a gold mine that helps you understand yourself in a very profound and comprehensive way. When we understand ourselves in a deeper, more profound and comprehensive way, we can learn to truly love ourselves. To know thyself is to love thyself.
If you’re unfamiliar, an astrology chart is a snapshot of the solar system at the exact moment you were born. The concept behind your astrology chart (also called your birth chart or your natal chart) is that you’re flavored in a certain unique way depending on the positioning of the planets at your moment of birth. Each planet represents a certain aspect of us, and also teaches us about a certain realm of life. Each zodiac sign represents the way the aspects of ourselves express themselves, and each house represents a realm of life in which these aspects express themselves. By looking at each planet, as well as the sign and/or house in which it sits, we can tell a story in order to understand and articulate the many divine aspects of ourselves.
What you probably already know about yourself is your Sun sign. This is what people mean when they talk about “their sign” or “their zodiac sign”. The Sun sign is simply one aspect of you, but it doesn't tell the whole story. That’s why you may never resonate with any horoscope you read, or any meme that describes or pokes fun at your Sun sign. I’ve noticed that by looking at multiple planets in conjunction with one another, it helps a person better articulate their energy and vibe.
Your Feminine Power: A Multi-Dimensional Story
One of the coolest and most powerful stories we can tell utilizing an astrology chart is about a woman’s feminine power. By simply looking at certain aspects in a chart, a woman can actually unlock her feminine power and it will start to more naturally flow.
There are four elements that I look to in a birth chart to help a woman unlock her feminine power. I believe that it's important to look at all four of these signs, and to look at the unique mix of all of the energetics of all of them in order to tell the real story of a woman's feminine power. I don't believe that looking at one by itself gives you the full picture, or the comprehensive view because a woman's feminine power is complex and multi-dimensional, not simple or flat.
The Four Astrological Aspects that Unlock a Woman’s Sacred Feminine Power:
Sun Sign: Her personal & creative power and what she’s embodying, or what she can embody, when she’s at her best, shining her light as brightly as possible.
Moon Sign: Her inner emotional landscape & intuitive power, and the way she nurtures herself to feel balanced and secure
Rising Sign (Ascendant): Her personal identity, and the costume she wears/the vehicle she uses to move through life, in order to get into her power
Venus Sign: Her inner goddess & relational power, which encompasses the way she relates to others in any kind of relationship, what she embodies when she’s her most radiant and magnetic, her sensual/sexual vibe & desire, what she desires to experience in a romantic relationship, what kind of energy she most admires and respects, and how she tends to express herself
Some might argue to include the Mars sign as well, as this tends to have a lot to do with sexuality, but in this case, I see Mars as more of a physical tendency in sexuality, not the emotional and spiritual aspects of sexuality, and when we are speaking of the feminine energy, we must include a view of sexuality that encompasses the spiritual and emotional realms. I believe when a woman is truly in tune with her sacred feminine energy, she’s not satisfied by just strictly the physical version of sex—she is only satisfied when a deeper emotional and spiritual connection is present because this grants her an immense sense of safety to really let go, which is the only way to reach orgasmic bliss.
Individual Application
The following is a list of the 12 signs of the zodiac, as well as key words to describe the general vibe of each, from a more feminine/Venusian point of view. If you don't know the elements of your chart, you can either book a chart reading with me, or go to CafeAstrology.com, and enter your birth date, time & location. Once you know the sign(s) that your Sun, Moon, Rising (Ascendant), and Venus are in, take a look at the key words and general descriptions of each relevant sign below, and intuitively combine them in a way that allows you to tell the story of your feminine power.
Aries: Assertive, passionate, inspiring, all-or-nothing, physical, victorious, knowing exactly what you want and confidently asking for it, zero tolerance for being wishy-washy or playing games.
Taurus: Sensual, slower paced, consistent, steady, body-based, grounded, lover of luxury, lover of a curated space and mood, in tune with deeper desires, never rushed, needs extra time to get warmed up/aroused, loves to create a very flirtatious tone of foreplay-before-the-foreplay in the relationship to keep the fire stoked outside the bedroom.
Gemini: Fun, playful, flirty, social, vocal, expressive, loves to switch things up, loves to experience multiple moods/paces/styles within one sexual experience, very curious, loves to learn new things.
Cancer: Very loving and romantic, loves quality time, needs to create immense emotional security via commitment before getting intimate, sensitive, instinctive, cozy, loves to play house, loves a very family vibe.
Leo: Loves to be adored, very generous with love and affection, very romantic, playful, creative, passionate, needs to feel very worthy in order to be able to handle and truly bask in the feeling of being adored.
Virgo: Loyal, even keeled, intricate, committed, doesn’t get too caught up/swept up in emotions of romance, loves partnership that has the teammate/partner-in-crime vibe.
Libra: Lover of relationships and being in relationships, loves peace, beauty, and harmony in relationships, desires a true lover, very charming.
Scorpio: Loves deep intimacy, mysterious, raw sexual power, magnetic, psychic, probing deeper and deeper, penetrating the veil between the physical and metaphysical, loves to look at and understand the energetics that drive situations, very into sex magic.
Sagittarius: Adventurous, exploratory, optimistic, open-minded and open to trying new things in bed, loves experimenting and traveling (travel of the globe or travel within the mind).
Capricorn: Primarily concerned with success, longer term goals & values, and settles for nothing less than what is in total alignment, conservative in sharing the more emotional aspects of herself, needs to be with a partner who she deeply admires and respects and is proud to be seen with, does not do well messing around with those who don’t measure up or who don’t share a similar vision, unless that person balances and loosens her up in a very positive way.
Aquarius: Loves to connect on an intellectual level, is very turned on by matters of the mind, eccentric, experimental, revolutionary, rebellious, innovative and open to doing things in a new way if it benefits the relationship, progressive, potentially obsessive and idealistic, would increase power by building a strong connection from head to heart.
Pisces: Generous, compassionate, healing, intuitive, ethereal, overly trusting, flimsy boundaries, needs to feel deeply intertwined with another, and merged with another, would feel very empowered with strong psychic and energetic boundaries.
This list and exercise is meant to serve as a really solid jumping off point for you to be able to unlock and more clearly articulate your feminine power, through the lens of astrology. Once you understand this information, you’ll find you have more clarity and confidence in what you bring to the table in your relationships, and you may also discover more of your deeper desires that you wish to experience in love & sex. This is something that you’ll go deeper and deeper in throughout the rest of your life as well. There is always more to learn :)
If you happen to feel totally disconnected from the descriptions that are associated with your elements, I invite you to ask yourself how connected you feel with your truest self. You might try looking over the list of all the signs, and pull out the characteristics and descriptions that do feel they fit you most closely, and go from there instead.
The Current Energetic Theme of Venus: Long-Term Vision & Success in Love & Relationships
The planet Venus is currently nearing the end of her 40-day retrograde period, a time when she’s asked us to re-examine and re-structure our beliefs, visions & values around love, sex & relationships. She’s currently moving through the sign of Capricorn, which if you read the description above, you’ll understand that the teaching here has everything to do with achieving success in the realm of love, and having the strength to stand for our bigger, longer term visions, beliefs & values, and settle for nothing less, even though the world may try to make it too casual.
If you haven’t taken the time to get clear on what it is you truly desire to experience in love, sex & relationships in your life, now is a great time to do so. This information will shift and change as you grow, but it will serve you for the rest of your life. Helpful questions to ask and journal on:
What are my longer term goals in love and relationships? What do I want to experience?
What are my personal values?
What kind of love do I want? How would I describe the energy and vibe of my ideal relationship?
What qualities do I desire to interact with in a partner? What do I find attractive? What do I respect and admire?
What behaviors do I need to uphold in order to be able to handle the caliber of partner and relationship that I most desire?
What patterns tend to play out in my relationships that aren’t working for me? What patterns would serve me best instead?
Remember, you came here to experience the higher realms of love. When you get clear on who you are, and what it is you envision and value, you’ve done almost all the work required to manifest it. The remainder comes in upholding your beliefs through your mindset and behavior, doing the work to undo old patterns and clear out old energies from your system, and simply allowing the universe to deliver your desires to you in perfect timing. Helping women get clarity in this realm, and remove their blocks to experiencing the love & sex they desire is my absolute favorite way to support women. If you’re desiring support, book a call with me—I’d love to chat!
Wishing you loads of success as you dive in deeper!
