Venusian Beauty: Unlocking Radiance, Rituals & Signature Scents for Every Venus Sign
A Note to Our Readers: As a woman of colour. Flipping through the beauty magazines at my local CVS, I often felt unseen. The products, tips, and tricks showcased within those pages seemed distant and unrelatable— a sentiment that followed into the aisles of cosmetic stores. As an inclusive brand, our mission is to recommend products that make you feel captivating and confident. A signature scent is the perfect way to enhance your Venusian charm My team and I hope you find joy in our recommendations.- Kayanna Thompson, Founder. Astrology has a rich history spanning thousands of years. It is the study of how planetary movements influence our lives. Today, we most commonly use what is known as the tropical zodiac.
In the tropical zodiac, we can find out more about ourselves through our birth charts. A birth chart is drawn as a 360-degree wheel that’s divided into 12 houses, or sections.
At the moment you were born, each planet and zodiac sign occupied a specific house in your chart. Astrologers interpret these positions to reveal significant influences on various aspects of your life, such as your personality, health, and relationships.
In astrology, the planet Venus symbolizes beauty, love, and abundance. So when we embrace the traits of the zodiac sign corresponding to our Venus placement, we can magnetize our natural radiance.
