Venus and Mars in the Heart of the Sun, with Pallas K. Augustine

I'm joined by astrologer Pallas K. Augustine to discuss the meaning of the triple alignment of Venus, Mars, and the Sun in Capricorn during the week of January 6 - 9, 2026. Venus formed a conjunction with the Sun on January 6, followed by Venus and Mars beginning a new cycle on January 7, and then Mars forming a conjunction with the Sun on January 9, with Venus and Mars within one degree of one another and the Sun across all three conjunctions.It's a powerful week to contemplate your inner values and align your actions in the world with them as we enter the dramatic astrology of 2026. The Venus cycle, the Mars cycle, and the Venus and Mars cycle will all be key players within the astrological alignments of 2026 that will give shape to the year. We discuss the importance of relating with astrological cycles, specifically the meaning of the Venus cycle, the Mars cycle, and the Venus and Mars cycle. We discuss the process of purification, regeneration, rebirth and renewal that occurs when Venus and Mars approach their conjunctions with the Sun, form their exact conjunctions, separate away from the Sun, and then return to visibility in the sky.We also talk about the two conjunctions Venus forms with the Sun in her cycle (the superior and inferior conjunction) and the meaning of the January 6 conjunction being her superior conjunction in Capricorn.We also talk the meaning of the Venus and Mars cycle, and conclude by going through a list of dates of the key aspects and phases of the Venus and Mars cycle beginning with their conjunction in Capricorn on January 7, 2026 and extending through their next conjunction in the final degree of Sagittarius on November 24, 2027.Connect with Pallas and sign up for their Venus workshop:https://www.nineofwands.comTicket to see Pallas at NORWAC 2026 astrology conference:https://norwac.netTicket to see Pallas at UAC 2026 astrology conference:https://uacastrology.comJoin Pallas K.
