Venus in the Underworld | 40 days of shadow work and empowerment of the Feminine | An Alchemical Journey

After the 40-day period when Venus disappeared from the sky, during her cycle as an evening star, bright and visible in the sky near sundown, she will rebirth as she crosses a threshold in the underworld, and becomes a morning star for the next nine months. It is the beginning of a new cycle.

And so it is also for the individual who has imitated her journey into the underworld and experienced a time of soul-searching, releasing old patterns, and seeking spiritual renewal, finding balance and harmony, and realizing individual empowerment.

Like the mythical figures of ancient myths and stories (Jesus tempted in the desert, Buddha before realizing samadhi, the Sumerian myth of Innana), we emerge from the depths of our psyche, the Self is now unified, we are bringing home our inner gold.
