Leo Venus Star Point
Venus holds different frequencies of energy depending on whether she is at the beginning of her journey, the descent as Morning Star, or if she is at the end of the journey, the ascent as Evening Star.
As Morning Star, Venus is young, fresh, courageous. She is in her phase of stripping away, releasing, shedding. She knows how to die.
As Evening Star, Venus is mature, integrating what was reclaimed, remembering the ancient wisdom. She is in a regeneration phase of her cycle. She knows how to live.
Venus shows us how to honor the cycles of dissolution and regeneration, each one as vital as the other.

Venus Star Point’s gift to Leo:
Love and a heart-centered approach to life come through a burning desire to live life in a proud, passionate, and creative way, to shine like a beacon of strength and leadership to others.
-Arielle Guttman, Venus Star Rising
The heart is the centerpiece of the Leo universe. Ruled by the longings of the heart, they live for love, without which they would be nothing. The moment they perceive that the well of love has dried up, they search for new fountains. Further, the Leo Venus Star Point individuals are always reaching for the light, and, as they grow, they become increasingly aware that cultivating inner light is the way to experience inner security and true love.
-Arielle Guttman, Venus Star Rising
Leo investigates the mysteries of Radical, Radiant Self-Love and Self-Confidence. This is the kind of self-love that happens when a person truly knows they are a divine being and their greatest gift to humanity is to show up and shine as creator. Leo imagery includes the enlightened King/Queen or Creator who is creatively “making it up” in the moment and empowering others with the radiance of who they are.
This training includes the dissolution of self-hatred making way for the activation of beginners mind, courageous will, bold confidence, inventive imagination, and creative play.
Genuine self-love does not require love from others or the good opinion of others. It does not depend on what others think or do. Defining self-love is not how we feel when we have had “a good week”. Self-love occurs when we internally, lovingly accept who we are at all times and have moved beyond the need to say or do anything that causes harm to ourselves or others.
