As many of you know, my new book The Magic of Venus: Friendships, Soul Mates, and Twin Flames explores the difference between Soul Mates, who are many, and our Twin Flame, which is our “divine other” across the lifetimes. Today we’ll take a brief look at an immense subject.
I made the distinction between Soul Mates and our Twin Flame because of hearing so many times that people felt badly after breaking up with a Soul Mate and wondered if that meant they had lost their Twin Flame. One cannot ever “lose” their Twin Flame, since they are your perfect spiritual and worldly complement. So regardless of who we’ve said goodbye to in the past, this book reminds you that you can become more loving and wise from the breakup and attract someone even better!
This book is the most comprehensive book ever written about the many ways our inner Venus shapes all of our relationships throughout life. I have synthesized astrology, psychology, and spirituality in ways that offers the reader insights about the purpose of past and present relationships, and how to create better ones in the future. It is both a manual for improving who we attract as well as an astrological reference book.
The first part of the book explains why we like what we like and key factors in healthy relationships. It explores why we attract certain types of people until we change our focus to attract people who will like and love us, how to know if someone is right for us, and how our family and culture influences our likes when we’ve young.
In the section about “the Lover” we take a look at the six Divine archetypes available to us in our chart, and explore what a healthy Lover looks like. This book opens the doors to understanding how to attract the best people for us, whether friends, romantic partners, or our ideal mate. It’s both an astrology book and a work with wisdom gleaned from a lifetime of relationships and exploring the essentials of healthy relationships.
The second part of the book has chapters on Venus in each sign, as well as the qualities of each sign’s archetypal mate, as well as Venus retrograde, important astrological factors in compatibility, marriage charts, and the timing on who we meet and what that means, and affirmations for each Sun/Venus combination for centering the focus on attracting more perfect life relationships.
The book was written for both astrologers and non-astrologers. Even those with little or no understanding of astrology will benefit from what’s offered. I have no doubt it will open the door to your imagination and ability to find perfect friendships, make the most of the Soul Mates you’ve met or will meet, and help you understand your mythic hero’s journey in the realm of relationships. It is a book with countless gems for your consideration, and whether imagining what your ideal mate might be like, or imagining what a better partner might be like after learning the last one wasn’t your Twin Flame, this is the book for you!
I believe a special feature of The Magic of Venus: Friendships, Soul Mates, and Twin Flames is the chapter explaining the difference between Soul Mates and Twin Flames. While we have many Soul Mates, we have only one “Twin Flame,” or “Divine Other.” Soul Mates help us bring forth our Soul and the greater love we ARE. That’s why some of them break our hearts, but always point the way to more fulfilling, loving, and wise relationships in the future. When you read the chapter, you’ll understand that all your difficult relationships in the past brought forth your heart and Soul, and you’re now a wiser person with better relationships ahead.
Because I did this with Saturn: Spiritual Master, Spiritual Friend to help introduce people to some gems in that work, I’m doing the same with this book from time to time. The Magic of Venus is guaranteed to help you become a stronger, more loving human Being on your own terms, recognize potential problems in relationships, and discover ways to turn all that is difficult into more fulfilling life adventures. Ebook versions are also available on Amazon Kindle.
For your consideration, a few paragraphs from Chapter 11 in the section titled “Can Our Twin Flame Be Seen in the Synastry Between Two Charts?”
Because true love is beyond any ego limitation we might have, over time we and our Twin Flame can grow beyond our old limitations in an ever-expanding wisdom. If we strive for the Highest, we will eventually see the manifestation of a form of the Beloved.There will obviously be harmony between our chart and the chart of our Twin Flame, but that’s also true for Soul mates and help mates. Since we’re here to help each other overcome our human deficiencies and embrace a Soulful life, getting hung up on whether someone is or isn’t our Twin Flame is not as helpful as becoming the best friend we can be to all who come into our lives.
When you first meet your Twin Flame there will be a strong attraction, whether one or both of you chooses to act on that attraction or not. As your relationship develops, you’ll see them as a Soul Mate. This is the first step in recognizing your Twin Flame. Let the love, let the experience, let the knowledge of each other develop organically, naturally, easily over time. There’s no need to rush, push, or get impatient. It will be intense, gentle, easy, thrilling, and feel like a timeless adventure you’ve never had and always had. It is your dance with your Beloved.
While our Twin Flame is indicated in our chart, in fact our Twin Flame will have their own chart. Who knows what astrological chart is best for you, and shows you the reunion with your Self? That’s why any chart could be that of your Twin Flame. They will have had their destiny, their trials, their sorrows, their weaknesses, and their “dark night of the Soul.” They will also have had their strengths, wisdom, intelligence, and determination to be their best Self. Remember each of you is fully human, with all your imperfections. But each of you are also recognizing, to the core of your Being, a love beyond description, one you would never abandon for anything. Each day will feel like a new adventure in renewing your life and love.
From the section “Our Divine Other is Us and Not Us,” a little more:
When we are in the presence of our Twin Flame, there is an instant recognition of "the other" quickening everything in us. We may or may not finish each other’s sentences, but we may dream the same dream at the same time, or remember "other lives" at the same time. Because we are complements, we probably developed differently, in different areas of Self-realization….The Twin Flame will bring forth feelings on a different level than all the other lovers, spouses, and everyone else you've ever known. That’s why it’s important to prepare to meet our Beloved as our highest, best, most loving Self. We want to greet “the Beloved” in our highest spiritual expression. The interesting thing is they will naturally bring that forth in us, and we’ll bring that forth in them, without manipulation or demands.
That’s why striving to be the best spiritual human we can is paramount if we want to attract our Divine Other. We originally split on Earth, and that’s where we’ll come back together. Relationships which become more loving over time, encouraging our Soul-Spirit to express itself naturally and organically, are great opportunities to learn how to recognize the eternally loving relationships we’ve cultivated across time “in Heaven and on Earth.” One of these is our Twin Flame.
Being with your Twin Flame is an ongoing, real time, “here and now” experience, a timeless love beyond your wildest dreams. You will feel that eternal love you have for each other every moment of your existence, whether you speak it or show it or not. You are each unique and a light unto yourselves; and yet you are one together. Your hearts are at peace.
You can use the links above to go to amazon and get your copy! Or if you prefer, go to your local bookstore and order one. This book is unique, and whether you’re an astrologer or someone interesting in knowing how to attract more ideal friendships and potential partners in your life, by the time you’ve finished the last chapter, you’ll already be attracting different people than before you started.
All blessings to Venus, showing us who and how to love!
