Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds   

     I urge you not to expect much from this entry, were you to expect anything at all. I really just want to ruminate on the fact that my progressed Venus will enter Capricorn next year. I look forward to this transit in the same way I looked forward to my Saturn Return, which I realize is not the usual way to feel about Saturn Returns, but I'm a pretty Saturnine lady and I was so ready to be responsible for myself and my life. My Saturn Return was direct only two months before my 30th birthday, and I was for sure ready to leave behind what felt to me like the superficiality of the twenties. I have natal Moon and Mars in Capricorn with Mercury tightly conjunct the Mid-heaven. To view life as a mountain or series of mountains to climb is comforting to me. There is no rush. The mountain isn't going anywhere.
     I don't know exactly what to expect from progressed Venus in Capricorn, but with the feeling that I could either harden my heart or strengthen it with endurance, I'll choose the latter. Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" captures for me the Kronos-like clockwork of the Venus in Capricorn approach to love and relationship.
