Napoleon Brousseau’s photo of the Venus/Sun transit from Toronto June 6 2012
from Ashbridges Bay on Lake Ontario Toronto, my husband artist Napoleon Brousseau captured the Venus/Sun transit with a Canon Rebel camera, a 250 telephoto lens and welder’s glass in front of the lens Tuesday June 5 2012.
I co-led a ceremony by the lake to celebrate the Venus transit. I called in the directions, we had a fire, sang Goddess chants, drummed, danced, ate apple pie- Venus’s fruit. There was a wide age group from 14- 78, felt nice to run the gamut. It felt very intimate,wiccan, very celebratory. We made wishes. It did get cloudy but that improved the cameras’ ability to see Venus. It was awesome with the condo-full CN tower dominated Toronto skyline in the background, we felt in nature surrounded by the Lakel. We only glimpsed part of the transit but the energy felt exquisite.
Then the Capricorn MOON rose, that looked more magnificent than the May 5 Super Moon! Moon was huge, one day past Full, occulting PLUTO, a rare phenomena these days as well. The Moon was brilliant red illuminating a large swathe upon the lake. There was a young couple in their 20’s with us who were romantically entwined standing on the rocks by the lake with the red moon behind them. My husband Napoleon snapped magnificent pics. of them, which felt so right so romantically Venusian.
After all Venus and the Sun had just made love with the whole world watching! The feeling is Love infectious, A good virus!
It was magical. Then later, the huge moon was hidden by low clouds leaving an amazing round spotlight on the lake the likes of which I had never seen. Awesome. How was your Venus/Sun transit?
June 7 Mind Shift , Mercury enters water sign CANCER @ 4:16 am PDT/ 7:16 am EDT- JUNE 25
thinking with your stomach or ” turn off your mind relax and float downstream”- John Lennon
Mercury, winged messenger of the gods, not jus an FTD florist symbol, the hermaphrodite, ruler of all things GEMINI & VIRGO, two mutable signs making news these days,ruler of the Venus/Sun transit. Mercury enters the Cardinal waters of Cancer today for a brief dip in the pool till JUNE 25.
With Mercury in Cancer the mind is filtered through the emotions: security needs, home, nurturing,eating comfort foods, women, children, real estate, nursing. The head and the heart are in sympatico elements. They can relate easily. Think about redecorating your home, let your stomach teach you what feels right to it for you to eat, diet issues, and there will be much talk about your emotional needs. The media will be more awash in women’s issues, nursing, food, caring for women’s health issues, homes,mortgages etc.

Icthyocentaurs, Pisces Centaurs with Aphrodite
Ancient Mythology healing gods rebirthed from the sea
Venus or Ashtarte as she is known in the Middle east. MYTH: An egg of wonder full size is said to have fallen into the Euphrates River. The fish rolled it to the bank. Doves sat on it, and when it was heated, Venus/ Aphrodite hatched out, known to the Syrians as goddess Ashtarte. Since she excelled in justice and uprightness, by a favour granted by Jove /Zeus / Jupiter, the fish were put among the number of the stars as Pisces. Becasue of this the Syrians do not eat fish or doves, considering them as gods.
Pisces Centaur healing Gods
Ichthyocentaurs, from Greek mythology were a pair of centaurine sea-gods with the upper bodies of men, the lower fore-parts of horses, ending in the serpentine tails of fish. Their brows were adorned with a pair of lobster-claw horns. The two marine Kentauroi (Centaurs) were named Bythos (Sea-Depths) and Aphros (Sea-Foam). They were half-brothers of the wise Centauros Kheiron (centaur Chiron), and like him were probably regarded as wise teachers. They are Triton forms. These mosaics are from Lybia, Tunisia, Cypress
Chiron Retrogrades from 9 degrees 45 mins – 4 minutes 49 minutes of Pisces.
Where is 4-9 degrees PISCES in your natal chart? The house Chiron is Rx-ing through as well as aspects Chiron will be meaking to other planets in your chart shows where you are most vulnerable and also ripe for spiritual healing for the next 5 months.
this is absolutely perfect, everythign is unfolding by divine order. Because Venus is born of the Sea, and she is in the media, after all the intense eclipses, sun spots and more to come, having a 5 month spiritual healing medicine time is totally awesome!!!!!
The Rx symbol for Retrograde, is the same as Rx prescription which means it is time to take your spiritual healing medicine while Chiron is Retrograde in PISCES.

The ancient Fish-centaurs, Aphrodites’ healing helpers are also being reborn into Consciousness with the Venus/Sun transit.
All things from the sea, are primordial, are the unconscious. All mythologies are Archetypal stories told in different forms in various cultures world wide. Venus {Love} comes from the Unconscious, she is born of the Sea.
The Pisces Centaurs are equivalent to and have the same energy as Chiron in Pisces, meaning that healing comes from the depths of your emotions, from your unconscious memories, from birth and pre-birth, past life karma. The Asclepius, the Ancient healing temples which Chiron is associated with used dreams as a form of healing, way before Sigmund Freud.
Spiritual imbalance or dysfunction is the root of all physical illness and dis-ease. I prescribe dream work for healing, as Pisces is the unconscious itself, the 12th house being the karmic memories storehouse.
Work with your dreams consciously, use dreams to heal. Use melatonin to help you get a good night’s sleep if you aren’t cognizant of your dreams. I would also work with the Tarot cards to uncover the dreams’ meanings, the wounds and to discover the elements to use to heal them.
