Keywords for the Transit: Unconventional Love • Collective Values • Revolutionary Art • Karmic Relationships
🧿 Corresponding Tarot Card: The Star
On February 5th, the planet of love, beauty, and harmony, Venus (Shukra), leaves the ambitious, structured sign of Capricorn and enters the innovative, humanitarian air of Aquarius (Kumbha), where it will transit until March 1st, 2026. Venus immediately joins Mercury and Rahu (North Node), forming a potent conjunction that places our values, relationships, and artistic expressions squarely in the realm of the futuristic, disruptive, and collective. This marks the beginning of a period where love becomes a revolutionary act, beauty is found in the unconventional, and our finances are tied to technological or social innovation.
The Cosmic Context: A Venusian Journey Through Disruption & Exaltation
Venus’s path through Aquarius is a story of electrifying social awakening, followed by intense karmic tests, culminating in a sublime release into its exaltation.
Phase 1: Dhanishta (Feb 5-11) – The Symphonic Network
-
Theme: In this “Star of Symphony,” ruled by the Vasus (gods of abundance), Venus seeks harmony within groups and networks. Your social life buzzes with innovative collaborations. Love and art are expressed through technology and collective projects. The conjunction with Mercury and Rahu makes your social interactions mentally stimulating but potentially scattered or obsessive.
Phase 2: Shatabishak (Feb 11-22) – The Veiled Healing
-
Theme: Entering the “Veiling Star,” ruled by Varuna, Venus’s focus turns to healing, isolation, and uncovering hidden truths within relationships and finances. The Sun enters Aquarius on Feb 12, adding vitality to this unconventional sector. The Venus-Rahu exact conjunction at 14° on Feb 12 can bring a fated, disruptive, or intensely liberating relationship or financial event. This is a period of detoxifying your values.
Phase 3: Purva Bhadrapada (Feb 22-Mar 1) – The Scorching Threshold & The Kala Sarpa Yoga
-
Theme: Venus enters the fiery, purifying waters of this nakshatra as Mars enters Aquarius on Feb 23. This triggers the beginning of a Kala Sarpa Yoga, with all planets positioned between Rahu in Aquarius and Ketu in Leo. This rare yoga indicates a period of intense karmic focus and potential fated events, where collective destiny (Rahu) overshadows personal will. Venus is in the crucible.
-
Key Events in This Crucible:
-
Feb 26: Mercury Stations Retrograde at 28° Aquarius, ensuring miscommunication and revision in all Venusian matters (love, money, art).
-
Feb 28: Graha Yuddha (Venus vs. Mercury Rx): A “Planetary War” between values and confused communication. This can manifest as brutal honesty in relationships, financial disputes based on misinformation, or artistic conflicts.
-
The Liberation: Exaltation in Pisces (Mar 1 onward)
-
On March 1st, Venus escapes the Kala Sarpa pressure cooker and enters its exaltation in Pisces, immediately conjunct Saturn and Neptune. The revolutionary, often chaotic social experiments of Aquarius give way to spiritual, compassionate, and transcendent love. Values are purified through sacrifice (Saturn) and dissolved into universal compassion (Neptune). The Kala Sarpa Yoga ends on August 1st when a debilitated Venus in Virgo finally breaks the nodal axis.
What This Means For You
This Venus transit calls you to revolutionize your heart. It asks: Do your relationships allow for freedom and growth? Do your values align with the future?
Navigate by:
-
Embracing the Unconventional: Be open to unusual people and avant-garde art. Love may not look traditional.
-
Mindful Networking: The Mercury-Rahu influence can lead to gossip or misalliances. Choose your social circles with discernment.
-
Preparing for the Kala Sarpa: During the yoga (Feb 23-Aug 1), understand that relationships and finances may feel fated or karmically intense. Practice detachment and focus on spiritual lessons over personal desire.
-
Surviving the Graha Yuddha: Around Feb 28, practice extreme tact. Do not make final decisions in love or finance amidst confused communication.
Your journey is from social revolution (Aquarius) through karmic refinement (Kala Sarpa) to spiritual transcendence (Pisces). Let your heart be your guide through the electric storm to the ocean of unconditional love.
Let your love be a revolutionary force, refined by karma, and ultimately liberated into boundless compassion. 🙏
🧿 Corresponding Tarot Card: The Star
The Star card depicts a nude figure kneeling by a pool under a starry sky, pouring water from two jugs—one onto the land (the conscious world) and one back into the pool (the subconscious). She represents hope, inspiration, serenity, and the healing flow of cosmic energy after a period of darkness (which, in this sequence, is the tumultuous Kala Sarpa Yoga and Graha Yuddha).
How This Corresponds to Venus in Aquarius:
-
The Nude Figure: This is Venus in her most authentic, unconventional state. In Aquarius, Venus sheds societal expectations (clothing) about love and beauty. She is not beholden to tradition; she is free, innovative, and true to herself, just as the figure is unashamed and natural under the open sky.
-
The Starry Sky & The Large Central Star: This is the innovative, futuristic, and collective realm of Aquarius. The stars represent the network of humanity, technology, and brilliant ideas that Aquarius rules. The figure draws her inspiration and pours her gifts back into this collective pool.
-
The Two Pools of Water: These represent the dual flow of Venusian energy. One stream nourishes the “land”—this is Venus sharing unconventional beauty, art, and social harmony with the world. The other stream recirculates into the “subconscious pool”—this is Venus’s work during Shatabishak and the 12th house phase, healing hidden wounds and connecting to spiritual love before her exaltation in Pisces.
-
The Landscape: The fertile land and the distant bird symbolize the hope and new growth that comes from this innovative, humanitarian approach to love and values. After the destructive purge of the previous card (The Tower, which could represent the Graha Yuddha and Kala Sarpa pressures), The Star offers a calm, cleansing, and inspiring vision of the future.
-
The Promise: The Star card is a direct promise that the journey through Aquarius’s electric social experiment, followed by the karmic trials of the Kala Sarpa, leads to a state of renewed hope, spiritual inspiration, and authentic, healing love. It confirms that Venus’s final destination in exalted Pisces is a return to the sacred, compassionate waters of the soul.
The Star reminds us that true, lasting harmony is found not in convention, but in authentic connection to the cosmic flow of innovation and, ultimately, universal compassion.
Look to the stars for inspiration. Your most authentic love and beauty are a guiding light for the collective.
