CosmiTec's Love Letter, Issue #248 -- Unaspected Venus
July 21, 2025
Dear

August (and September) seem to become 'special' (pivotal) months that will especially affect, target, even 'hit' some specific people and birthdays.

If your Sun is at 1° in a sign or if you have other personal points and planets at 1° in any zodiac sign, you may especially feel the energies of the upcoming transits during August (and September alike), for good or ill.

The once in a lifetime blend of Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto at 1° in a sign, will trigger certain energies that will affect a lot of people profoundly.

As usual, transiting stellar configurations hardly ever work out the same for everyone when they hit the natal horoscope because each natal horoscope is as different as a finger print, with different outcomes but that still revolve around the same basic and archetypal concepts and principles.

Realize there is no 'good' or 'ill' as such, because 'good' and 'ill' (or 'bad') are emotional and judgmental concepts that we humans subconsciously construct to object changes, development and evolution.

But holding on to a status quo is totally against the Universal Laws of vibration and rhythm.

Understand that we can't beat the Universal Laws, even if our ego wants to...

The upcoming astrological configurations are just the forerunners of what researcher and mundane astrologer André Barbault called the most benefic configuration of the century (!) that we will experience in 2026.

We will discuss this (and the word 'benefic') in a future issue when we will delve into the 2026 astrological configurations.

Just to put everything into perspective.

Lovingly
Luc De Jaeger

In general and on a mundane level, events are likely to happen around August 5, 12, 18 and/or 25.

During this month of August there are the following planetary configurations of stationing outer planets that might affect some specific birthdays:
  • If you are born around February 5, March 21-22, May 6-7, June 22-23, August 8-9, September 24, November 8 or December 23, this month is about great tension and stress, upheaval, but also extreme dedication to your own ideas and interests.

    Beware of physical restrictions, health issues and/or a breakdown because your physical body is in one way or the other under heavy oppression and tension.

  • If you are born around January 21, March 6-7, April 21, June 6-7, July 24, September 8-9, October 24 ot December 8, this month is about a lack of zest, feeling weak and/or ill, withdrawing, feeling vulnerable.

    Some of you may go hiding and/or missing.

    Some of you may just flee away (or have to because of the circumstances) and if you are a woman, it's possible a male person in your environment just leaves or quits.

  • If you are born around February 2-3, March 19, May 4, June 20, August 6, September 21-22, November 6 or December 20, this month is pointing to tumult and uproar.

    However, for some of you this may become a very exciting, even thrilling month if no adverse planetary aspects (from Mars or Saturn for example) hit your natal Sun.

    Prepare for sudden changes of course though and remain flexible.
Generally speaking, August 1, 17, 21, 22 and 29 are "less lucky" days.

Try not to initiate any major projects on these dark, unfortunate, chaotic and empty days (no proposals, no marriages, no changes of residence,...) because things may not go as planned or wished.

In the 45° dial, there are the following powerful midpoint combinations between outer planets going on that will mark this month's Zeitgeist (and thus work out the whole month):
  • The Saturn/Neptune midpoint hits the Uranus/Pluto midpoint (SA/NE = UR/PL) which will be exact around August 6 (mind though that this is a long-lasting midpoint combination, so that it will linger on, beyond August).

    This midpoint suggests, among others: extreme weather because of storm and/or precipitation, the sudden reversals in matters of politics, the huge environmental problems.

  • Neptune equals the Jupiter/mean Lunar Nodes of the Moon midpoint (NE = JU/KN) which will be exact around August 11 (right when Mars hits this midpoint combination as well).

    This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the cold shower, the huge disappointment, to be deceived by the promises or intentions of someone, the error of judgment about someone else, not being able to decide or see things clearly, the lack of responsibility, the wasted energy, the falsehood, the swindle or fraud in the environment.

  • Neptune equals the Uranus/Pluto midpoint (NE = UR/PL) which will be exact around August 18.

    This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the increased interest in metaphysics and astrology, the unfulfilled wishes and hopes, the falsehood, the deception, the uncertainty, the step into the unknown, the hopeless feeling, the lack of perspective.

    Following astrometeorology, this midpoint combination above average coincides with massive amounts of precipitation, a deluge, severe storm here and there.

  • Uranus hits the Saturn/Pluto midpoint (UR = SA/PL), which will be exact around August 21 (mind though that this is a long-lasting midpoint combination, so that it will linger on, beyond August).

    This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the brutal efforts to start a new order, the heavy attack whatever the losses, the intense violence, the air crash, to push through in the direst and most dangerous circumstances, the sudden drastic changes or upsets in plans made concerning important activities, the uneven use of retaliatory measures.

  • Jupiter hits the Neptune/Pluto midpoint (JU = NE/PL), which will be exact around August 25.

    This midpoint combination suggests, among others: the increased need to find a better way to spend your life, the increasing need and desire to enjoy a better future, the social or political pressures, the increased use of alcohol or substances like drugs, the drowning(s), the increased bankruptcies, the increased peace rallies or protests/manifestations, the increased religious importance, the huge fraud or corruption and illegal/unlawful issues.

    Following astrometeorology, this midpoint combination above average coincides with heavy precipitation and the resulting water-related issues like floods, inundations, sinking structures etc.
Around the August 1 First Quarter Moon at 9° Scorpio, the Sun and retrograde Mercury conjoin at 9° Leo while Venus at 1° Cancer squares both retrograde Saturn and Neptune at 1° Aries.

So, this First Quarter Moon actually squares retrograde Mercury, indicating traffic jams, communication breakdowns, isues with information and/or documents.

Expect delays in matters of travel.

Venus, representing a loved one and/or a female person, is currently in a dire situation, possibly ill, not feeling well, dissatisfied.

Some of you may face unrequited love, a hopeless relationship and/or love's sorrow.

There is sadness over a loved one anyway.

If you are a pregnant woman, beware of a miscarriage during this week.

In domestic and home-loving Cancer, Venus points to issues pertaining to real estate and/or the family as well.

Following the current astrological configurations, home and the family are not providing a secure environment everywhere.

Following astrometeorology, this period in time may bring quite some precipitation here and there, resulting in floods, water-related issues and/or maritime issues.

Also, following mundane astrology, there can be issues with a cruise ship or a luxury boat or leisure ship/boat.

From August 3 on and until August 16, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are all at the same numerical degree in a zodiac sign (1°), blending their meanings together (for good or ill).

When this trio builds an astrological pattern, it often coincides with, among others: to be angry, to have to give in, to succumb to external influences, to experience surgery, to be separated, to be under 'influences' (like drugs, narcotics, alcohol...), to be sad, to be very restless or irritated, to want to withdraw or be alone so to find inspiration, to face a sudden health challenge, to be depressed, to need meditation to find mental balance, to face a sad loss, to feel lost, to feel a delusion that change will operate to improve upon the traditional systems or methods, to be indifferent to further decay in older buildings or structures or systems, to be too visionary to be able to affect reforms.

Aside from the current ongoing pattern at 1° in a zodiac sign, the full months of August and September 2025 will affect you a lot (for good or ill), and in particular if you are born around January 20-21, February 19-20, March 21-22, April 20-21, May 21-22, June 22-23, July 23-24, August 24-25, September 24-25, October 24-25, November 23 or December 22-23, because during both months, all the outer and slow-moving planets Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto will hit your natal Sun at 1°.

The natal Sun represents your physical body, your will-power, creative self-expression.

These are once in a lifetime patterns, shaping and transforming your life profoundly.

Around August 5-6, there is uproar, tumult, and the current astrological configurations suggest some accident-prone, turbulent, violent and intense days.

Aside from accidents, there are conflicts and some of you will be challenged.

Around August 6-7, impulsive Mars enters peaceful Libra, the sign of its detriment.

Mars is too self-centered to feel comfortable in sociable Libra, upsetting the balance and status-quo.

However, the early Libra degrees prefer and enjoy gatherings and meetings and often indicate such events.

It can be a good period in time to meet new people but in some instances, assertive-aggressive Mars in the sign of the Scales indicates legal trouble.

Anyway, expect peace talks, people gathering and meeting to promote peace, if only self-centeredness could be avoided.

All 0° in cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn) trigger personal changes, like changing the place of residence, changing the job or career, changing a partner or relationship and because Mars too is a trigger planet it will help some of you to just do that: bring about a personal change.

Because of the entrance of Mars in the air sign Libra, Mars will now start to build a once in a lifetime Kite pattern that encompasses Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.

A Kite pattern is a large astrological configuration built around a Grand Trine (in this case a Grand Trine in air signs) and an opposition aspect (between Mars and Saturn).

Such patterns are told to indicate difficulties in manifesting ideas and visions into reality.

There is hesitation, procrastination, delaying or postponing deadlines, always looking for and finding a reason to postpone.

However, for the coming days, as Mars becomes more and more the focal point of this Kite pattern, he might be able to 'tie the knot', take a decision, resolve an (internal or external) 'conflict.'

Hence, on a personal level, this astrological pattern is often indicative of success and opportunities for great self-expression after lots of turmoil and delay.

How this once in a lifetime planetary Kite pattern between these outer planets works out on a mundane level, remains to be seen though.

There are sunny spells around August 8.

Around the August 9 Full Moon at 17° Aquarius, Mars at 1° Libra opposes both Saturn and Neptune at 1° Aries.

Mars is the dispositor of both Saturn and Neptune because Saturn and Neptune are in Aries, ruled by Mars.

Hence, Mars rules the outcome of Saturn and Neptune and because Mars is in the sign of its detriment, it's in a very difficult situation, worrying too much and becoming indecisive.

This week can be brutal and harsh for some of you, in many ways.

Mars-Saturn and Mars-Neptune oppositions tend to block and dissolve initiatives, work and activities.

This also suggests you may be fighting windmills just now.

There is lots of obstruction going on (intentionally or not), and lots of objections coming your way as well.

The coming week points to ego- conflicts, extreme self-will, headstrong behavior and pressure (which means forceful behavior in a demanding way) and some of you may even be fired or toppled from a position.

The answer to all questions now seems to be 'NO', 'no pasaran.'

However, some of you may also be able to persist despite the severe and intense obstacles and friction on your path to reform.

If you are born around January 20-21, February 5, February 19-20, March 21-22, April 20-21, May 7, May 21-22, June 22-23, July 23-24, August 9, August 24-25, September 24-25, October 24-25, November 8-9, November 23 or December 22-23, the current astrological configurations indicate, among others: to be unemployed, to be fired, to dislike work or certain activities, to protest out of dissatisfaction, to lack zest, to be impotent, to be fanatical, to become violent, to be highly opposite, to face surgery, to be extremely self-willed, to hate, to be blackmailed, to be forced to do something, to be separated because of a fateful and/or forceful event/experience, to use shady tactics, to neglect others (often in haste).

Following astrometeorology, the current astrological configurations tend to indicate a severe storm and extreme weather here and there.

Don't fear, just be prepared!

Following mundane astrology, this Full Moon week also indicates hate and oppression, as well as censorship.

Mercury stations and turns direct again at 4° Leo around August 11.

Geminis and Virgos (and Gemini and Virgo Ascendants) will be pleased to know their sign ruler turns direct again.

Their life will slowly get on track again.

Decisions may come easier and there is more optimism and confidence noticeable.

Around August 12, Venus and Jupiter meet at 14° Cancer.

On a personal level, this conjunction at this particular degree in Cancer tends to favor publicity, making something public and it often involves proposals and/or wedding ceremonies but it does not rule out other public announcements (of whatever kind).

This combination of planets on this particular degree brings relief on a personal level and coincides with successful or fortunate or welcome turns of events, resulting in changes for the better.

Following astrometeorology, there are clouds in the sky and there can be intense showers here and there.

Around August 14 the astrological configurations point to restlessness, uncertainty about the future, sleepless nights, stress, irritation.

Some of you may experience lost love and cannot easily cope with a sudden and tragic separation from a loved one.

If you are a pregnant woman, the current astrological configurations may as well coincide with a miscarriage.

The current astrological patterns tend to especially affect women and/or girls, rather than men and boys, generally speaking.

If you are born around January 6-7, February 19-20, April 5-6, May 21-22, July 8-9, August 24-25, October 9-10 or November 23-24, the astrological configurations might affect you most.

Following mundane astrology the current astrological patterns often coincide with the sudden passing of and/or separation from a female celebrity, politician or VIP; often involving tragic circumstances.

However, this may also apply to the tragic passing of a female person though (irrespective of the status or age).

Additionally, there can be internet and/or power outages here and there or some event causing a chaotic and dire situation for many people.

Try to avoid travel by air around this day.

Following astrometeorology, the current configurations tend to indicate lots of precipitation, floods, water-related and/or maritime issues here and there.

Following mundane astrology, the August 16 Last Quarter Moon at 23° Taurus points to air crashes and/or sudden (often tragic) break-ups and separations.

The atmosphere this week is heavy and intense.

There is a sudden need and even urge to (re)gain freedom.

The coming days tend to indicate tumult, uproar with events happening lightning fast and causing lots of disruption and/or physical or material damage.

The current astrological pattern often coincides with earth-related issues (like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc.).

However, following astrometeorology, the current pattern also suggests heavy precipitation here and there, often accompanied by heavy storm, resulting in severe floods, inundations and/or water-related issues.

There are sunny spells around the same day of August 16.

From this day of August 16-17 on, retrograde Saturn will cross the critical degree area of 0° Aries - 29° Pisces till late September 2025, whereafter it will further proceed in late Pisces in its retrograde motion until December 2025.

Saturn now hitting the aforementioned critical degrees (representing 'the world at large'), will present some general restrictions and the need to impose regulations and rules.

Following astrometeorology, Saturn now enters the most watery degrees of the zodiac, increasing the odds of lots of water-related issues, inundations, floods here and there for the coming weeks and months.

Around August 20, the current astrological configurations suggest wildfires and/or the destruction of real estate, buildings here and there, for whatever reason.

On a more personal level, you may not know exactly what to do and may feel dissatisfied.

An immense problem might change your life in big ways.

Between August 21 and September 15, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto will all be at the same numerical degree in a zodiac sign (1°), coinciding with, among others: to feel weak, to be under the influence of external circumstances or events (that are beyond your control), to feel hopeless, to uncover falsehood, the unfulfilled wishes or hopes, to be exhausted, to face the unknown, the increased spiritual insights and interests, the space-related interests or events, to face extreme destruction, to go to extremes with drugs, the major drug find.

If you are born around January 20-21, February 19-20, March 21-22, April 20-21, May 21-22, June 22-23, July 23-24, August 24-25, September 24-25, October 24-25, November 23 or December 22-23, this planetary pattern will affect you most.

Following mundane astrology, this planetary pattern often coincides with a big, major, (natural or man-made) catastrophe resulting in a massive amount of casualties.

Following astrometeorology, this planetary pattern tends to increase precipitation, resulting in floods, inundations and other water-related and/or maritime issues.

There are sunny spells around August 21.

Around the same day of August 21-22, Mars at 9° Libra is conjunct the degree of the March 29 Solar Eclipse, triggering this Eclipse.

This degree area is about leaving (even fleeing) home, separation, getting more independent, domestic changes, the loss of a caretaker (this can be the mother as well), a new encounter that is supposed to bring more or some renewed security.

Please read the March 2025 forecasts to understand how Mars can now trigger the outcome of the current events in the March 2025 Issue 243 Newsletter or on our website under the March 2025 forecasts.

It might again trigger an earthquake.

The Sun enters Virgo, the sign of health and work, around August 22, just before building the August 23 New Moon at 0° Virgo.

The whole week is marked by trying to survive.

Some of you may have to take responsibility for children.

Some of you may feel ill as well and around these days medical care might be breaking news.

The Sun at 1° Virgo squares Uranus at 1° Gemini Around August 24, indicative of preventing something, changing the course of something, taking a decision under severe circumstances to change the outcome of something.

Some of you still try to cope with health issues.

Venus enters Royal and playful Leo around August 25.

There can be chaotic living circumstances.

Often, there are parental issues in whatever way or form (be it fertility issues, a miscarriage, child-parent issues etc.) and in some cases it's difficult to share feelings reflecting creative self-expression being at a low around this day.

Following astrometeorology, Venus in hot Leo, tends to coincide with humid and warm weather.

Following mundane astrology, royalties can be in the news.

Around the same day of August 25, there are clouds in the sky.

Around August 26-27 Venus at 1° Leo opposes Pluto at 1° Aquarius.

Venus-Pluto oppositions coincide with (financial) blackmail as well as abusive and forceful behavior towards others.

Because Pluto is the planet of transformation and death, chances are this aspect will also point to a loved one leaving or passing.

What's New on Our Web Site?

We continued manually editing dozens of pages to make them more smartphone-proof and to avoid possible migration issues once we transition to a more responsive and dynamic website.

Additionally, we have been updating hundreds of links to make sure all links work as they should.

Unfortunately, the different link checker software we use is not reliable enough so that, this too has become a manual time-consuming work.

We fully removed the Google translate feature now that a lot of free browser add-ons or extensions exist that do the same.

It's one of the last things we could remove from the website to cut the chains with Google.

We also removed some scripts that seemingly were written in old code.

We added the progressed synastry article that we published in the previous Newsletter.

We also updated the page about the (love) life of Katy Perry with the news about here recent separation.

Unaspected Venus

In this article we try to give some insights into the way unaspected Venus works out in the natal horoscope.

Venus is called unaspected when she builds no major aspects (conjunction, sextile, square, trine or opposition) to another planet with an orb of 5°.

Whether or not planets build aspects among each other not only depends on the orbs used (from 5° or even 10° or 12°), but also on the kind of aspects because planets are always in some sort of aspect (depending on the harmonics used), from so-called micro aspects, to minor and major aspects.

To do research, we always have to use a fixed reference frame to compare charts and find common traits that correlate with the researched subject.

Many astrologers like Bil Tierney, Janis Huntley, Glenn Mitchell, among others, mention that unaspected planets are highly important and work out in a unique way.

Unaspected (actually the least aspected) planets are valid in astrocartography too as Robert Couteau found out.

What do unaspected planets signify

Most astrologers agree that unaspected planets:
  • does not become weaker
  • is still expressing itself according to the basic principles it reflects
  • acts like a toggle switch
What about unaspected Venus?

Unaspected Venus becomes erratic, a bit unpredictable and vacillating in matters of love and romance.

Love and affection are superficial and may fluctuate, thus giving the impression that they lack affection for a single person.

There can be many love affairs.

Especially males tend to have more difficulties relating with the opposite sex.

People with unaspected Venus still have fabulous taste and have quite some artistic ability.

Unaspected Venus is told to become more passive (in the sense of rather lazy) and at times very sensual.

Love interests are not continuously and actively pursued but when the native is approached, the response can be more intense.

Unaspected Venus tends to wait till the good things fall into its lap.

In this position, Venus becomes more reactive and undemonstrative in social interaction.
