Okay, here’s my blog post about my experience with the Venus square Mars transit:
So, I’ve been feeling off lately, you know? Like, not myself. And I’m a big believer in astrology – not in a “read my horoscope every day” kind of way, but more like, I pay attention to the bigger planetary movements and how they might be messing with my vibe.
I looked into it, saw that Venus was squaring Mars, and I was like, “Aha! That explains EVERYTHING.” I mean, Venus is all about love, relationships, and beauty, and Mars is, well, Mars is about action, assertion, and sometimes straight-up conflict. When they’re at odds like this, it can make things… interesting.

My Venus Square Mars Experiment
Step 1: Noticing the Tension.
First, I noticed. I took a solid look, I was picking fights with my partner over the dumbest stuff. Seriously, like who left the cap off the toothpaste – a major offense, apparently! I also felt super restless, like I needed to DO something, but I didn’t know what.
Step 2: Decided a project.
I needed an outlet, it had to be physical. I decided that if I was gonna be antsy and energetic, I might as well channel it. I chose a project that had been on my to-do list forever and was a little daunting. I am going to completely reorganize my closet.

Step 3: Started doing.
I started by pulling EVERYTHING out of my closet. Clothes, shoes, boxes of who-knows-what – the whole nine yards. It was a disaster zone, I took pictures of it. I swear, looking at that mess actually made me feel a little better, like, “Okay, this is my chaos, and I’m gonna conquer it.”
Step 4: Keep doing and doing…

I sorted. Ruthlessly. I had three piles: keep, donate, and “what was I even thinking buying this?” That last pile was surprisingly large.I tried on things I hadn’t worn in ages. Some stuff I rediscovered and was like, “Hey, I forgot I had this!” Other things…well, let’s just say they went straight to the donation * I cleaned. I mean, really cleaned. I wiped down shelves, vacuumed the floor, even organized my hangers by color.
Step 5: Finished!
And finally, I put everything back. Neatly. Organized. It took hours, I was sweating, and my back was killing me. But you know what? It felt AMAZING. Like, I had taken all that restless, frustrated energy and turned it into something productive.
So, that’s my Venus square Mars story. I took a potentially frustrating astrological transit and turned it into a closet makeover. I’m not saying it’s a cure-all, but it definitely helped me feel more in control and less like I was gonna explode. Now, I’ve got a super organized closet, which is a pretty sweet bonus.
