    “1. Introduction

    TheDeep Sky Astrology School Project combines astronomy and astrology to create new results and breakthroughs in forecasting. In this material we will look at how to determine the phase of Venus and understand its movement without using degree measurements. This will allow you to make more detailed and accurate predictions based on the visible position of the planet from Earth.

    2. Venus’ position in the sky

    A. Determining the horizon and visible sky

    First, it is important to mark the horizon as if we were on Earth and observing the sky above us. From this position, we can see the Sun and Venus, which does not move farther away from the Sun than 48-49 degrees.

    B. The orbit of Venus and its position relative to the Sun

    If you draw the orbit of Venus, it will look like an ellipse, not a circle. Part of the orbit goes closer to the Sun, part goes behind the Sun. Since the orbit of Venus is not circular, its motion also varies: part of the orbit is shorter, part longer. The Sun is at the center of the orbit, and Venus moves counterclockwise, as do all the planets in the solar system. Depending on the position of the orbit, Venus can be retrograde or direct.

    3. Phases of Venus’ movements

    A. Retrograde and direct motion of Venus

    Venus orbits at an average speed, but when the closest point of the orbit approaches the Earth, its motion becomes retrograde to an observer on Earth. For the rest of the orbit, Venus is direct. If Venus is traveling on the far side of the orbit, it passes zodiac signs such as Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, and others.

    B. Effect on Venus’ visibility from Earth

    When Venus is in a near Earth orbit, it is retrograde and passes the signs of the zodiac in reverse order. Venus’ visibility also depends on its phases: it may be visible only during daylight hours when it is near the Sun, or not visible at all when it is hidden behind the Sun.

    B. Behavior of Venus in different phases

    If Venus is more distant from the Sun in the horoscope, her orbital motion will be decreasing. In this case her degree in sign will be greater than that of the Sun. If Venus is closer to the Sun, her motion will be increasing.

    4. Analyzing the phases of Venus without knowing the degrees

    A. Description of the first phase

    The first phase of Venus begins when Venus is rising, moving away from the Sun to the right. In this phase, Venus is retrograde and its degree is less than the Sun’s, so it is moving away from the Sun in the opposite direction.

    B. Description of the second phase

    In the second phase, Venus approaches her “full moon,” maximum illumination. Venus is direct, and her degree is also less than the Sun’s, but the Sun has a greater degree in the horoscope.

    B. Description of the third phase

    The third phase mentions the direct motion of Venus and its degree is more than that of the Sun. In this phase, Venus is closer to its “setting point” where it is not visible from Earth because it is obscured by the Sun.

    D. Description of the fourth phase

    The fourth phase is characterized by Venus becoming retrograde and gradually returning closer to the Sun. In this phase, the degree of Venus remains greater than that of the Sun, but Venus is still ahead of the Sun in the horoscope.

    5. Programs for observing and analyzing the phase of Venus

    A. Use of Jagannatha Chora

    To determine the exact phases of Venus, one can use the program “Jagannatha Chora”. In the eighth version of this English-language program, there is a section called “mun data of astrology” where you can select the planet’s transition points to retrograde or direct. This menu is called “stationarity of this or that planet”. By selecting the planet of interest, you can find the point when this planet was last at a stop before the person was born, which allows you to determine phases and see current movements.

    B. Using Star Walk 2

    The Star Walk 2 app is also useful for analyzing the motion of Venus. You can see a picture of the heavens so that the planets are displayed in real time. By clicking on a particular planet, you can see its orbit and current phase, allowing you to analyze the position and phase of Venus in your horoscope in more detail.”

    “6. Examples of horoscope analysis

    А. Horoscope of a man: the beginning of a relationship
    In the first horoscope example, we see a man whose Jupiter-Venus period gave rise to a new relationship. In the horoscope, Venus is the mistress of the 7th house of the relationship and the 12th house, being in the 8th house, which can indicate either secret relationships or crises. However, in his case, the relationship started favorably without difficulty or worries. In the horoscope, Venus is at 15 degrees 30 minutes of Gemini, and the Sun is in front, in the 1st degree of Leo. Thus, Venus has a lower longitude compared to the Sun, indicating the third phase of Venus is direct and rising, favoring the beginning of new and prosperous relationships.

    Б. A woman’s horoscope: the end of a career
    The second example looks at the horoscope of a woman whose similar Venus-Rahu period did not lead to marriage as might have been expected. Venus is also listed in her horoscope as the mistress of the 10th house of career. During the Rahu-Venus period, she ended her previous career and moved on to a new line of work. Venus in her horoscope is at a shorter distance in degrees from the Sun, orbiting farther and waning. This waning Venus led to the completion, not the beginning of new processes.

    7. Special Case: Hillary Clinton

    А. Venus-Jupiter period and the 1998 scandal
    Hillary Clinton’s horoscope is examined in relation to her husband Bill Clinton’s famous scandal in 1998, which occurred during the Venus-Jupiter period. Venus in her horoscope is at 23 degrees 44 minutes of Libra, along with the Sun and Mercury. The Sun at this point is at 9 degrees Libra. Mars is also exerting its influence on Venus. In this case, Venus is in a waning phase, indicating the end rather than the beginning of processes, and explains the crisis in Hillary’s personal life.

    Б. Analysis of Venus and Mercury in Hillary Clinton’s horoscope
    The retro Mercury in her horoscope is also revealing. The Sun was at 9 degrees of Libra and Mercury was at 28 degrees. Mercury was traveling in a close orbit to earth, being retrograde, indicating the phase of Venus’ new moon. It was also important to consider the aspects of Mars and Sun in the horoscope. The influence of Vishakha nakshatra, in which Venus was in, foreshadowed tensions in personal life. This all explained the strained personal relationships and the scandal that occurred on the global stage during the directly astrologically intense period.

    8. Conclusion

    А. Importance of analyzing the phases of planets
    For proper prediction of events in a person’s life, it is not enough to consider only the signs and houses of the horoscope. The phases of the planets play an important role in determining their influence. Taking into account the phases of the planets, you can better understand what processes will occur in certain periods.

    Б. Prospects for further research
    The phases of the planets, which are not always taken into account in standard astrological approaches, offer great potential for more accurate predictions and correct conclusions. Further research in this area may lead to new discoveries and confirmations of hypotheses related to the influence of the phases of the inner planets on events in people’s lives.”
