Venus in Scorpio is considered to be exiled, in its detriment, or in the sign of its antithesis

Now let& #39;s think about Scorpio. It& #39;s a fixed water sign ruled by Mars
It& #39;s associated with things that are hidden, plotting, secrets, alchemy, poison, and medicine
Scorpio is the nocturnal sign of Mars, the planet of war. How do you kill someone on the low? Poison!

Water signs are generally associated with life and fertility but with Scorpio being ruled by Mars we have this water that isn& #39;t conducive to life
Alcohol aka "fire water" is a good example of how Scorpio can be both medicinal and poisonous

Anyone that& #39;s had a hangover before knows damn well alcohol consumption ain& #39;t good for your body
It burns your throat, makes you vomit, black out, damages your liver, etc etc
That shit ain& #39;t supporting life or growth

We often frame Life as the end all be all when in fact Death is what makes it even possible
Think about what you do when you get a cut. You clean the wound with alcohol to kill bacterial growth
You& #39;re using a poison to kill discriminately

Setting your wound on fire would also kill the bacteria but it would harm the fuck out of you
Acids, poisons, chemicals, and medicines are able to limit their destruction which is what allows them to ultimately support life

You know how alcohol/fire water is made?
F E R M E N T A T I O N
Yeast, a bacteria, is encouraged to grow in organic material
Think about that for a second
95% of the time bacterial growth is what we DON& #39;T want. It& #39;s why you have a refrigerator

Fermentation is exactly what Venus in Scorpio is all about
Growth and relation as a means of processing. Benefic decomposition. Life-affirming rot
Connecting with things that seem scary and bad can be amazing

You have to be observant and cautious when you& #39;re playing with fire tho
Botulism is what you get when you invite the wrong kind of bacterial growth into your preserved food and that shit can kill you
Venus in Scorpio has to manage that risk. Who do you let in?

Thinking about the ancient civilizations in which astrology was developed, food preservation was important af
There were no refrigerators. You either ate it before it went bad, dehydrated it (arguably Venus in Aries), or fermented it
That& #39;s it. Those are the options

Which means, these processes were an extremely integral part of daily life
If we think of Saturn& #39;s exaltation in Libra we see that Venus honors Saturn as the Lord of preservation

The takeaway for thinking about Venus in Scorpio is what bacteria (people) are you inviting into your food (life)?
How are you making sure they& #39;re yeast (medicinal) and not botulism (poison) when you can& #39;t see, smell, or taste the difference?
