The Radiant Queen
The First Gate of Descent
September 11, 2023: Venus meets with the moon in Leo
Venus is high in the morning sky, shining brightly as Morning Star. She meets with the moon at the Crown Chakra gate.
The Journey Begins
The Radiant Queen, the fiery feminine begins Her descent. She is queen, and yet She knows there is something missing. She doesn’t know what, but She feels the missingness. She is willing to begin again, another cycle, another journey, another reclaiming of self. She knows the cycle, the pain of dissolution, the pain of seeing what has been exiled and rejected. She knows the disruption this journey will cause in Her life. She knows death comes before rebirth. Yet still She cycles. Still She begins again. She knows Her own lion hearted courage.
She begins her descent and comes to the first gate. The gate guardian stands at the 7th chakra. She gazes at Venus’s crown. Radiant Queen, fiery feminine, are you willing to lay down your crown? What does it feel like to stand bare, your head exposed, no marker of your rulership? What does it feel like to lose this identity? As you feel the tugs of loyalty, responsibility, authority, pulling at your heart, are you willing to lay down your crown? What is revealed when you do?
Radiant Queen, what are you willing to have laid bare in order to pass my gate?
