Heart Centered Creativity and Courage

In the very first episode of the Venus Rises Podcast, Bronwyn and Rebecca talk about working with the energies of fire and water and bringing them down to earth.  Our job this week is to harness the bright creativity of the Leo New Moon.  

The seeds we plant on this lunation can be used to fill our hearts and homes with warmth and light, carrying us through the coming months.
