Star Struck Style

Venus enters Virgo in a few hours from now, and I’m already feeling like I need to take better care of myself. Don’t get me wrong — I’m already quite obsessed with self-care. I just believe that there are occasional “lapses” in my routine that can work against me. It’s a good time to clean up my act, both figuratively and literally.

My eleventh house cusp is less than a degree away from the first degree of Virgo, so my previous post about Venus’ ingress into that part of my chart still holds true: I need to extricate myself from situations where the negativity of others has an impact on my own state of mind. The eleventh house should be a social place, not a place where we gather to complain about others. When I’m in an environment where I can’t escape that sort of negativity, I often engage in behavior that sabotages all the hard work I put into my self-care routine. Learning that about myself was one of the greatest personal breakthroughs I have ever achieved. Still, I do find myself falling back into old habits sometimes.

But I’m going to try my best to not allow that to happen during this upcoming cycle. The first thing I need to do when I’m feeling overwhelmed by what I can’t control is to remember what I can control. With my natal Venus in Aquarius, I have an innate ability to detach myself from situations that mean nothing to me. Recognizing when I have “no skin in the game,” as the saying goes, and simply moving on should be easy for me over the next few weeks. And when I do walk away, I need to focus on what makes me a better person instead of dwelling on the circumstances from which I have removed myself.

So, that’s what I’m going to do. Once again, making things better in “my own little world” has been the theme to my year in 2026, and I need to continue along that path. Venus’ entrance into Virgo and my eleventh house should help me to continue along that path. Things have been easy for me this year, and I truly believe that this ingress is going to make my life even easier.
