Venus & Jupiter conjunct near Regulus August 4 2015. Lion's gate begins 8/6-7

On the theme of "Rebirth" and how this alignment is playing out in current events:

Thank you for pin

Is this perhaps forming a triangle of stars? I keep seeing a perfect triangle near where I'd normally see Mars.

8/4 Venus and Jupiter conjunct close to Regulus

8/7 Mercury at Regulus

8/8 Heliacal rising of Sirius

8/11 Jupiter at Regulus

8/14 New Moon Leo [Elul]

8/15 Venus inferior conjunction

8/21 Venus reappears as morning star

8/22-23 Sun at Regulus

Here is a link on viewing Jupiter and Mercury on August 6-7. I am pretty sure that in the northern hemisphere Venus has disappeared by now from the evening sky as we approach the inferior conjunction when it switches to morning star. Skies have been hazy and cloudy here around sunset so I have not seen the western sky just after sunset of late.

While the June 30 alignment was much more prominent in the evening sky, and the October 25 alignment will be visible in the morning sky, the alignment tomorrow is the closest to the royal star Regulus.

translation?

venus and Jupiter are getting it on, I get that much.

the planets have been getting it on for aeons though?

Thanks for sharing that video Rachel.

I shared a short quote in the OP on the meaning of Venus and Jupiter coming together with links to more material. If you've gone through that and have questions I am happy to answer. The general idea is that it is a messianic placement which has implications for those with religious faith, an inner awakening, and for those who are performing rituals on the global stage.

august 4

Obama's birth date

Yeah, just saw that. It's interesting to put together the video and the continuation of the star of Bethlehem alignment, tomorrow. Even though the one tomorrow isn't as prominent in the night sky.

Yup. Some also say it is the day the Temple was destroyed in 70 CE or 9 Av 70 CE.

10th of Loios (9th or 10th of Ab, about August 4) – Titus destroys the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. This date is mourned annually as the Jewish fast of Tisha B'Av.

8/4 is the 216th day of the year

Venus reappearing on Jesus' birthday is interesting.

Thank you for the link! that is what I've been seeing...just after sunset in the western sky...bingo!

The Starbucks logo could be a reference to Venus crowning the royal star Regulus.

In 2 BC, Jupiter went retrograde over Regulus resulting in 3 successive conjunctions which the magi saw as a "crowning" of Regulus

In 2015, it is Venus that goes retrograde during the period in which these planets and this star is close, so we have Venus crowning the royal star.

I see this as some type of second coming, but it can be harnessed in different ways

And a crown was given to him.

The last time Venus conjuncts Regulus will be October 8, 2015 - one year after the 2nd blood moon.

Neat my birthday is on the 19th.

I know squat about Astrology but when I looked at a natal chart it seemed spot on overall which was kind of weird.

OP or anyone else would you tell me wtf it all means if I post it?

Don't reveal your exact birth information to anyone except a reputable astrologer. Ever. It can allow unscrupulous people to know way too much about you.

216 is cube 6... 6x6x6=216

This thread is blowing my mind, man.

There's a famous astrologer in MA, Elizabeth Hermon. Google her.

Time to Nissan? Nissan is the first month on the Jewish calendar. Before the Jews left Egypt, on the first day of the month of Nissan, God told Moses and Aaron: “This chodesh (new moon, or month) shall be to you the head of months.”4 Thus the peculiarity of the Jewish calendar: the year begins on Rosh Hashanah, the first day of the month of Tishrei (the anniversary of the creation of Adam and Eve), but Tishrei is not the first month. Rosh Hashanah is actually referred to in the Torah as “the first day of the seventh month.

Gevurah = 216

Oh yeah you most be talented overall..

No it was not.
