Илана Либ – Harmonizing the Natal Chart (страница 5)

Here, it is necessary to work through one’s connection to extreme situations. This includes engaging in extreme sports, participating in law enforcement, police, or military service. Professions such as surgeon, magician, esoteric practitioner, or detective writer are also associated with this placement.

For such individuals, an adequate amount of sexual activity in relationships is important. Additionally, Mars in Scorpio is worked through by dealing with large sums of money, external financial resources, and risk-taking.

When a person with this placement stays in comfortable conditions for too long, they begin to feel discomfort.

These individuals need to constantly learn, acquire new information, pursue higher or spiritual education, become teachers, share knowledge, travel to study other cultures, philosophies, religions, and languages, and visit temples.

If a person with Mars in Sagittarius does not engage in such activities and refuses to learn, they become incapable of seeing changes in the world and instead preach to others.

Such a person is a careerist, constantly working and building their career. Being ambitious is beneficial as long as there is professional growth, a business, and an opportunity to achieve high status (a clear goal is necessary).

If issues with authority and leadership are not worked through, energy will be wasted in vain because, according to their Mars in Capricorn, they are meant to be a leader—but they must progress gradually and purposefully.

In terms of sports, long-distance running, marathons, and endurance activities suit such individuals.

This person recharges their energy in the company of friends, like-minded individuals, through online communication, and in social groups. They must be unique and bring new ideas.

To develop their Mars, they should engage in activities such as parachuting, flying in planes or helicopters, and e-sports.

This is a difficult Mars placement to work on. Suitable activities for harmonization include any form of creativity, esotericism, psychology, astrology, and swimming. Creative expression should be primarily for oneself.

Professions that harmonize Mars in Pisces include medical worker, spy, secret agent, and hospital volunteer.

Engaging in charity work or helping people in any way is beneficial. Otherwise, the person may feel useless and unwanted. They tend to forget about their own problems when encountering those who are in an even worse situation.

Harmonization of Venus in the Natal Chart

A harmonized Venus grants inner peace, politeness, and control over one's desires and emotions. Such a person radiates joy, is filled with love for the world, and is difficult to provoke. Venus is an indicator of sensuality, the ability to love, and the capacity for unconditional love.

A well-balanced Venus fosters the perception of the divine in everything and also brings material prosperity and a desire to engage in creative activities.

An unbalanced Venus causes difficulties in partnerships and love, frequent changes of partners, uncontrollable material desires, and a lack of joy. Infidelity, excessive lust, endless material cravings, and disrespect toward women harm Venus.

Venus is harmonized through creative pursuits, self-love, working on one's appearance and image, studying the arts, observing nature, and developing a sense of taste, as well as external and internal harmony.

The best day to begin harmonization is Friday (Venus’ day). On this day, one should chant or sing the Venus mantra 108 times (OM SHUKRAYA NAMAHA).

It is recommended to give flowers to women, grow plants with large blossoms, and use stones such as white coral, diamond, and rock crystal (which can be placed in the home). Wearing a ring with a gemstone should be done only after consulting a specialist who has studied your natal chart.

It is beneficial to decorate one’s home and workplace with flowers and fruits, show reverence to Lakshmi, Saraswati, and Parvati (by placing statues or hanging pictures), cultivate selfless love, treat people to sweets, enjoy delicious food without guilt, and help homeless people and animals.

Such a person is more focused on themselves than on their partner and may be assertive in certain situations. It is important to communicate calmly and strive to understand what the partner wants. There may be frustration when the partner does not act as expected.

The fiery reactions of Aries should not be suppressed, but Venus should be worked on through self-development, self-discovery, sports, dance, and sex—engaging in activities that bring pleasure. Having a hobby (such as embroidery, knitting, or assembling puzzles) is also beneficial.

Additionally, one must learn to ask the partner for help rather than doing everything alone, assuming that it will be quicker and better that way.

A woman with Venus in Aries may lack a sense of feminine self-sufficiency. She might not feel filled with feminine energy, even though outwardly she tries to appear bright, well-groomed, and feminine. She desires to fulfill her wishes quickly, but the partner may not always share this pace or may need more time.

Such individuals need to learn to consider their partner, develop softness, reduce assertiveness, become more accommodating and diplomatic, and learn to negotiate, understand, and accept. They should calmly discuss problems. Essentially, they must adopt the best qualities of Libra—the opposite sign of Aries. This is how planets in signs are harmonized—by integrating the qualities of their opposing sign.

This is a strong, stable position from a material perspective. Such a person has a grounded outlook on everything and prefers relationships to be clear, structured, and stable.

They love material and emotional stability to the extent that they resist change in relationships. However, life is constant movement. For spiritual growth, change is sometimes necessary, including in relationships. In such unions, attachments and dependencies may develop (leading to stagnation and a lack of freedom of choice), which contradicts esoteric laws and the laws of the universe. When this happens, the soul ceases to evolve, and the universe sends lessons. Conflicts, disputes, and deep conversations help a couple progress in their relationship. Venus in Taurus, however, tends to avoid such situations.

The opposite sign of Taurus is Scorpio, which carries the energy of transformation—precisely what is needed to harmonize Venus in Taurus. One must be open to change in relationships, avoid procrastination, and take action when necessary.

Such a person is highly focused on material things and expects grand gifts. They need to shift their priorities from materialism to spirituality, as this is likely what their soul truly requires. It is important to listen to oneself and not choose a partner based on financial considerations.

This placement makes it easy for a person to express their feelings. Venus in Gemini grants lightness but also superficiality in relationships, preventing a deep understanding of love and partnership.

Communication is highly valued in relationships. Such a person engages in frequent interactions with the opposite sex.

It is necessary to develop depth in relationships, understand the partner and their emotions, and reflect on what one truly wants to feel toward the partner. Learning from Sagittarius (the opposite sign of Gemini) is essential for harmonizing Venus—this means embracing qualities such as wisdom, philosophy, and long-term vision. Only soulful mutual understanding can lead to happy relationships. One must see beyond the external and into the partner’s inner world.

A large number of social connections can create difficulties in choosing a partner and building relationships—one person may have one desirable trait, while another possesses a different one, making it hard to commit. Therefore, it is essential to develop deep self-awareness and understanding of what one truly needs. Only from this understanding should choices be made. Learning to prioritize and focus on developing relationships with one person at a time is crucial.

Another approach to selecting a partner is choosing someone whose status aligns with Sagittarius' themes—such as a teacher, mentor, or guru—someone who is respected and whose work is of interest.

Venus in Gemini does not naturally favor large-scale commitments in relationships. However, Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, which expands everything, including boundaries. Therefore, traveling abroad and studying different cultures can be particularly beneficial.

Venus in Cancer makes a person vulnerable and sensitive. It is necessary to work through feelings of resentment; otherwise, the person will become emotionally closed off, which hinders deep emotional connection—the foundation of relationships. It is important to develop Capricorn qualities, meaning to become less emotionally reactive to circumstances, not take everything too personally, and broaden one's worldview to understand that every offender is given to teach something.
