This episode kicks off my new series, Astrology for Hot Witches — all about understanding where your confidence and unique brand of magic live in your chart (and how to use it).
Today we’re talking all things Venus — your built-in magic magnet.
She’s the part of your chart that shows how you attract, connect, and create through pleasure.
Think: magnetism, beauty, desire, and your creative power — all wrapped into one.
We explore:
Why Venus is your ultimate key to magnetism
The connection between pleasure, desire, and magic
How each Venus sign attracts and enchants in their own way
Rituals + practices to turn your Venus energy up
Journal prompts to help you embody your magnetism this week

Hot Witch Homework
Journal: What feels magnetic about me when I’m in my Venus energy?
Create a Venus ritual: wear something that feels delicious, play your pleasure playlist, light a candle, and move your body.
Notice what (and who) responds to your energy when you’re fully in it.
