    🌿 Fortuna: The Roman Goddess of Luck and Fortune

    In Roman mythology, Fortuna was the goddess who ruled over chance, luck, fate, and prosperity. She was one of the most beloved and widely worshiped deities in Rome, because she embodied the mysterious forces that could make or break a person’s life.

    • Symbols: She is often shown holding a cornucopia (horn of plenty, symbol of abundance), a ship’s rudder (steering the course of fate), or the Wheel of Fortune (a reminder that luck always turns).
    • Dual Nature: Fortuna could bring both blessings and misfortune. Romans prayed to her for prosperity, but they also feared her fickleness. She was not bound by justice or morality. Her gifts were random, reminding mortals that life is unpredictable.
    • Titles and Forms:
      • Fortuna Primigenia: the primal, original Fortuna, linked to destiny.
      • Fortuna Redux: who brought people safely home from journeys.
      • Fortuna Muliebris: the protector of women.
      • Fortuna Virilis: fortune of men.
      • Fortuna Publica: the fortune of the Roman people as a whole.

    Her cult was everywhere, from small family shrines to grand temples.

    In fact, almost every city in the Roman Empire had a sanctuary to Fortuna. People turned to her before big decisions, journeys, or ventures, hoping her smile would fall upon them.

    ✨ Philosophical View: The Stoics often used Fortuna as a way to explain the uncontrollable aspects of life. They reminded people to accept her turns of the wheel with courage.

    🌿 Fortuna – The Turning Wheel 🌿
    “I am the dance of chance, the hand that shifts the wheel of destiny.”

    My child, I remind you that life is never fixed. The wheel turns, and with it come seasons of gain and seasons of loss. Do not fear the shifting tides. Each turn holds a hidden gift. When fortune smiles upon you, receive it with gratitude. When she withholds, know that new paths are being cleared.

    ✨ Oracle Message: Trust the rhythm of fate. Luck may appear sudden, but it favors the bold heart that dares to move forward. Keep your hands open, for I place blessings where you least expect them.

    Aphrodite – Eve

  • The Evolution of Venus: from garden goddess to mother of Rome

    The article details the dramatic evolution of the Roman goddess Venus, who originated not as a major Olympian but as a humble native Italic spirit of gardens, vineyards, and springtime fertility. Her transformation began when the Romans syncretized her with the Greek goddess Aphrodite, adopting the myths of love and beauty.

    However, her most significant evolution was political: the Julian clan, including Caesar and Augustus, claimed her as their divine ancestor (Venus Genetrix) through the Trojan hero Aeneas. This propaganda recast her from a goddess of love into the divine mother of Rome and a symbol of imperial peace and power, reflecting how her narrative was reshaped to serve the state’s ambition.

  • Venus Day and a Feminine Blessing: Friday the 13th

    Venus Day and a Feminine Blessing: Friday the 13th

    Dear Lovestar

    Follow me on X where many of my poems go live first

    Celebrating Venus Day: Embracing the Ancient Goddess on Friday the 13th

    In ancient times, Friday the 13th was not the harbinger of misfortune that it is often considered today. Instead, it was a day imbued with positive significance, particularly in the context of Venus, the ancient goddess of love, beauty, and fertility. This day offers a unique opportunity to connect with the divine feminine and celebrate Venus’s enduring influence.

    Ok, I have to find an actual connection between Friday the 13th and Venus, in ancient times Friday was Venus’s day. Venus as Aphrodite is one if the most ancient deities and this day was celebrated as the goddess day. So I’m observing it as Venus day on steroids.

    Ancient Lore and Venus

    Venus, known as Aphrodite in Greek mythology, was revered across ancient cultures. She was celebrated not only for her associations with love and beauty but also for her role as a symbol of prosperity and harmony. The number 13, often seen as unlucky in modern times, had positive connotations in pre-patriarchal societies. It was associated with the lunar cycle and feminine energy, reflecting the cycles of life and nature.

    In Roman times, Venus had numerous festivals, including the Veneralia, held on April 1st, and the Venerealia, dedicated to her worship. The goddess was also honored in various rites connected to love and fertility, celebrating the life-giving forces she represented.

    Modern Celebrations of Venus Day

    Today, Friday the 13th can be a powerful day for modern spiritual women (and anyone else) to reconnect with Venus and celebrate her essence. Here are some ways to honor this ancient goddess and integrate her influence into contemporary spiritual practices:

    1. Rituals of Love and Beauty:
    • Create a Venus Altar: Set up a small altar with symbols associated with Venus such as roses, seashells, mirrors, and candles. Use these items to create a space that reflects beauty and harmony.
    • Offerings: Prepare offerings of flowers, honey, or sweet treats as symbols of abundance and love. These can be placed on your altar or shared with loved ones as an act of kindness.
    1. Meditation and Reflection:
    • Venus Meditation: Engage in a meditation focused on self-love and empowerment. Visualize Venus’s energy surrounding you, fostering a sense of beauty and confidence.
    • Journaling: Reflect on your personal connections to love and beauty. Write about how Venus’s attributes influence your life and how you can embody them more fully.
    1. Celebratory Activities:
    • Host a Gathering: Organize a gathering with friends or fellow spiritual practitioners to celebrate Venus Day. Share poetry, art, and stories that resonate with Venus’s themes.
    • Dance and Music: Venus was often associated with celebration and joy. Dance or listen to music that uplifts and connects you to the goddess’s energy.
    1. Embrace Feminine Wisdom:
    • Craft and Create: Engage in creative activities such as crafting, painting, or writing that allow you to express the divine feminine energy. Venus’s influence can inspire creativity and self-expression.
    • Learn and Share: Study the ancient lore of Venus and share your knowledge with others. Understanding the historical context can deepen your appreciation and connection to the goddess.

    Embracing the Spirit of Venus

    By celebrating Venus Day on Friday the 13th, modern spiritual women can reclaim the day’s ancient significance and embrace the goddess’s attributes in their daily lives. This celebration is an opportunity to honor the divine feminine, nurture self-love, and connect with the enduring legacy of Venus’s beauty and power.

    Whether through ritual, meditation, or creative expression, let Venus’s spirit guide you in celebrating love and beauty, and find joy in reconnecting with this timeless deity.

  • Roman Astrology. Pisces best matches

    Dear Lovestar,

    We know astrology is ancient. The foundation of astrology is as ancient as Babylon.

    I am currently searching for the ancient aspects of astrology and, of course, love compatibility is in my mind.

    Note: I already know that my Scorpio is my divine match and I only do this for research purposes.

    In ancient Roman astrology, the compatibility of signs for love matches was interpreted based on the relationships between the zodiac signs and their ruling planets. Here’s how a Roman astrologer might have viewed the compatibility of Pisces with other signs:

    1. Scorpio (October 23 – November 21): Scorpio, ruled by Mars, was considered a potentially good match for Pisces. Both signs are associated with deep emotional intensity and intuition, making them compatible in terms of their emotional connection and shared passions.
    2. Taurus (April 20 – May 20): Taurus, ruled by Venus, was also seen as a harmonious match for Pisces. Taurus provides stability and grounding to Pisces’ dreamy and imaginative nature, creating a complementary balance in the relationship.
    3. Cancer (June 21 – July 22): Cancer, ruled by the Moon, shares Pisces’ sensitivity and emotional depth. They both value security and emotional intimacy, which fosters a strong bond and mutual understanding.
    4. Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): Capricorn, ruled by Saturn, complements Pisces’ intuitive and creative traits with practicality and ambition. Together, they can achieve balance between emotional depth and material success.
    5. Virgo (August 23 – September 22): Virgo, ruled by Mercury, provides intellectual stimulation and practical support to Pisces. Their shared attention to detail and analytical approach can create a supportive and nurturing partnership.

    Ancient Roman astrology emphasized the compatibility of signs based on their elemental qualities (fire, earth, air, water) and planetary rulerships. While individual compatibility depends on many factors beyond sun signs alone, these pairings were considered favorable due to their potential for emotional resonance, mutual understanding, and complementary strengths in a romantic relationship.

    Couples in Rome would get their astrology done while getting married.

  • My Poetry Evolution: Rhyming experiments

    My Poetry Evolution: Rhyming experiments

    Dear Lovestar,

    Up until now, I have been a channel of poetry.

    That means that I have a gift to hear and I write what I hear.

    I have several muses: real entities or thought forms šŸ¤” that give me not only ideas but entire thought poems while I drive, entire story plots while I desperately try to sleep, visuals of arts I’m not skilled enough to create, complex ideas for writing topics, and more.

    It also means I have the gift to translate. I can translate Spanish English, and I’m studying 3 other languages, Latin, Italian, and Ancient Greek, for new poetry to translate… šŸ™ƒ

    But aside from the self-promotion of my nerd ego… šŸ¤“ 🤪 😜

    I possess the gift of translating feelings and energies into words. I write what I feel and what I perceive. And of course, this “gift” is overwhelming…

    But now, I’m experimenting with new kinds of poetry
