The Portable Venus Altar Begin With a Statue or Image of A Goddess

Cayelin received this statue as a Gift for her 40th Birthday Venus Return in 1996. In 2010 it became the central feature of a Venus Altar during the age 56 Venus Return. This is a bronze Tara 8 inches tall.

The Portable Venus Altar In a Basket

This Basket was a wedding Gift in 2006. It is what made this Venus altar portable. The Statue is placed in the Basket along with the Vestments. From left to right each chakra is represented.

The Portable Venus Altar The Vestments Adorn the Statue

Or Are Placed Around In The Basket With Her

This image shows the removal of her makeshift crown, shown sitting between the divination cards. These Vestments are put into a box out of site until Venus Rises. The Tarot and Goddess Cards or whatever you have – can help the journaling process providing additional insights into each chakra gate as it relates to your journey.

Or Are Placed Around In The Basket With Her

As the Vestments are removed She eventually is stripped naked and bare for her journey in the underworld. The Statue can even be laid down to signify her having died while she travels with the Sun.

January 17, Capricorn Venus Rises as Morning Star February 25/26 Moon Occults Venus at 9:17 pm PST at First Gate, activating the 7th Chakra Visually connect with Venus and the Moon in the morning sky before sunrise when possible. RELEASE AT THE 7th CHAKRA

Crown Chakra a.k.a Sahasra

• Located on the entire top of the head • The mediating point between physical

reality and Spirit. • The Color is Violet • The Sound is Ee • Intuitive knowing, Integration, Wholeness • Living in the Present Moment • Seventh Chakra influences:

Pituitary and Pineal Gland Nervous System, Cerebral Cortex, Right Eye Muscular and Skeletal Systems

When the 7th Chakra is Out of Balance • Disconnect with the Unified Field causing us to feel there is not enough.

Disconnect from a sense of purpose, meaning and identity. • Frustration, depression, unrealized power, migraine headaches,

destructive behavior, inappropriate sexual expression ranging from overly passionate to withdrawn.

• Inability to make decisions, feeling stressed, worried, there is NO joy in life.

• Chronic exhaustion with no discernable physical cause, skin disorders, muscular and skeletal system diseases, sensitivity to light, sound, and environmental illnesses.

When the 7th Chakra is in Balance All the Energy Systems are Energized and Balanced Can Easily Connect with Divine Nature Total Access to the Unconscious and the Subconscious Faith, Trust and the Ability to Work Miracles

This Month: Release the Crown Chakra • Gratitude and Appreciation for your Crown Chakra

• Notice where you may not fully trust your connection with Spirit.

• Ask Spirit…What would it take for me to clear all the distortions and misconceptions or limiting beliefs within me that prevent me from having a healthy connection with Spirit?

• FOUR QUESTIONS (see Next Slide)

• Then take action…Meditate, chakra breathing, take a intentional ceremonial walk or dance and open to receive a message from your Crown Chakra.

• Then take time to journal the stream of consciousness that helps you answer these questions.

• Watch and notice what messages show up for you.

Four Questions? What would it take for me to completely

release and let go all the ways I do not 100%

trust myself and my connection to spirit?

What would it take for me to completely

release and let go all the ways I keep myself

from experiencing divine revelation and

knowing as it relates to my life?

What would it take for me to completely

release and let go all the ways I do not fully

allow myself to feel completely supported and

guided by spirit?

What would it take for me to completely

release and let go all the ways I do not fully

allow myself to experience absolute BLISS?
