Venus represents the fundamental cosmic force of attraction that "comes to all things" (venit ad omnia). Join me on this interdisciplinary exploration where astronomical brilliance meets mythological depth, philosophical insight, psychological archetypes, magical invocations, and alchemical transformations.

Born violently from Uranus's severed genitals cast into sea foam (Hesiod's Theogony), Venus emerges as the organizing principle from chaos. Her celestial manifestation, appearing as both morning and evening star, tracing a perfect pentagram orbit over eight years, was so powerful that Christ claims this identity in Revelation 22:16.

Cultures worldwide recognize this universal principle, from Babylonian Ishtar to Roman Venus and Egyptian Hathor to Syrian Astarte. Plato distinguished her Heavenly (Urania) and Common (Pandemos) forms in Symposium. Jung identified her "terrifying paradox" as our primordial mother-image. Lucretius invoked her as nature's generative force. Ptolemy mapped her astrological beneficence. Alchemists sought her transformative "green lion with rose-colored blood."

Homer showed her wounded by Diomedes yet undaunted. Caught in Hephaestus's net with Mars, she emerges glorified. The Orphic Hymns praise her as the "all-connecting dame" from whom "all things spring."

Venus reveals our most profound truth: connection, not isolation, is our natural state.

Join me to discover everything about Venus...

With a seducing ElevenLabs voice (link below), the Gregorian Chant of @incompetech_kmac (CC BY 3.0), and stunning historical art, this is ultimately a universal experience of Venus, although multiple libraries and art galleries can be filled with all books and paintings referencing Venus or its other faces.
