Venus-Sesquiquintile-Chiron

(Transit. Venus → Natal Chiron)

Avesalom Podvodny. Aspects

Venus Tridecile: The life of the social environment rarely has an anthropomorphic character. This aspect gives a desire to participate in social moments arising in the spheres of the Planet. These moments represent for the individual an opportunity for self-expression; they feel in them the breath of life that attracts and calls them to apply their efforts. In the planet’s spheres, the person feels the life of beauty, is drawn to aesthetic ideals, and fate will give them the chance to enliven the planet’s areas of influence through art, especially if Venus is strong; at a lower level, all this occurs under significant influence of social stereotypes, which threatens the life into which the person steps with rapid destruction. If the individual encounters love within the planet’s spheres, they may, through proper conduct, greatly revitalize it and gain opportunities for deeply human self-expression—though this blends poorly with sexuality understood in a primitive manner. For example, the Venus-Mars tridecile potentially enables strong, humane expressions in love, but attempts by the individual or their partner to force passionate (with animal overtones) desires end in complete failure, even though the beginning of love may promise very energetic and vivid development. Chiron Tridecile: On the axis of the life cart stand, on one side, the wheel of fortune, and on the other, the cross of destiny. When worked with, this aspect grants, within the planet’s spheres, first, a standard yet unexpected perception and understanding of life and developmental processes in general, and second, the ability to participate in these processes, materially and constructively resolving problems that previously seemed fundamentally unsolvable. Initially, the aspect may manifest as a sudden interest in life manifestations within the planet’s spheres that place the individual in an intellectual blind alley, exceeding their previous worldview. Overall, this aspect is harmonious and in some cases may provide fate’s protection, but its most pronounced expressions occur when the individual consciously engages with life-development issues in the planet’s areas of influence, where they will display pronounced creative abilities and gain (as a result of honest labor, if they prove capable—here one must examine the horoscope as a whole and work through Saturn) self-expression with a strong sense of humor. Chiron’s defeat will, admittedly, make it the most regular object of such humor, yet when processed, will allow understanding and participation in a much broader spectrum of interesting and vital matters within the planet’s sphere than with a weak or harmonious Chiron.
