Venus in Chitra ~ Attract attention and put on a show

Venus, planet of relationship and values, is in the nakshatra of Chitra across the signs Virgo and Libra from August 31^st to September 11^th.

Chitra is among the brightest stars in the sky, and its symbol of a shining gemstone finds Venus very much at home, in the Libra portion especially. Soft and feminine, this is the asterism of showiness, glamour and the arts, and signals a creative renaissance in your world.

Charm and putting on an appearance can be superficial, but also shows you are in the game – you draw attention and people want to do business with you. Venus is all about relationship and cooperation, and you attract attention with your style, and connect through a mutual interest in the arts and design.

Chitra is ruled by Vishvakarma, the celestial architect, which shows grand ambition and vision in both style and substance. So while you are dressing to impress and making a display, there’s serious potential here if you wish to pursue it.

You can be your own best advocate for a creative project or image makeover, and know exactly how to present yourself. Chitra’s Shakti is ‘Power to Collect Merit’, so aiming high and doing the right thing accumulates goodwill for the present and the future.

Your efforts come to completion now or at least you give it your best shot and have the connections to get your business started. From September 6^th, Venus receives the influence of expansive Jupiter, which is an excellent time for seeing the bigger picture and making peace after a romantic stand-off.
