I see this period as a great time to do root chakra work. Perhaps we can appeal to the inner goddess to welcome practical energy and drive (Mars) as a venue for spiritual quickenings in firm, fixed, sensual Taurus. If there is sexual trauma, wounded inner child, set aside time to speak and commune with all. Medusa understands inner rage. Mars understands how the show must go on. Uranus applauds abrupt, out of the ordinary changes. Within Taurus, positive change with mediation is doable. How exciting!
Medusa was a Gorgon but unlike her sisters who were monsters by nature, she was the only mortal of the family. It was said that her beauty caused many men from far and wide to throng her residence to seek her hand in marriage. Some of those admirers also included Greek gods, particularly Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. Often times, men would compare Medusa’s beauty to goddesses like Athena and Artemis. However, Medusa didn’t allow any of those compliments get into her head. Instead she swore an oath before Athena to remain a maiden all her life. And so the beautiful Medusa was taken under the wings of Athena and became the priestess of the goddess’s temple. With every passing day, thousands of men would visit Athena’s temple to glance at Medusa’s beauty. Some even went as far as saying that the priestess’s hair rivaled Athena’s. Safe to say that those comments did not go down too well with Athena, who was by then overflowing with jealousy mixed with resent. One day, Medusa was walking along the seaside when she caught the attention of the sea god Poseidon. Being a sworn devotee to the temple of Athena, Medusa on countless occasions rejected the advances of Poseidon. Medusa’s rejections only emboldened Poseidon, as the Greek god became infatuated by the maiden’s golden colored hair. As it was typical of many Greek gods to exhibit very little to no self-control, Poseidon raped Medusa in the temple of Athena. A petrified Medusa had hoped that by entering the Temple, Athena would have come to her rescue. Unfortunately the Greek goddess was nowhere to be found. When news of this horrific incident reached Athena, the goddess flew into an uncontrollable rage. Poseidon being a fellow Olympian god, as well as Athena’s uncle, could not receive any form of punishment from Athena. Therefore what does Athena do? According to the myth, the Greek goddess takes out her anger and disgust on the victim, Medusa. Athena punishes Medusa by turning those beautiful golden locks of hair into venomous serpents, permanently turning the maiden into a creature befitting a horrible nightmare.
Thank you for including this important part of the Medusa story. I was about to do the same! It’s very important for the divine feminine for this aspect to be included. I believe it is a representation of the overtaking and demolishing of the face of divine feminine(and her temples) in the dual god and goddess face of God/ Holy Consciousness. Thank you again for this addition ✨
In the original Hesiod telling, she was already a Gorgon, the later retelling was that she was turned in to one by Athena unfortunately like mentioned above. It is another good story to include yes 🙏 With the original myth, I was highlighting the deadly but powerful/empowering nature of Algol 🐍 Thank you for including this as well.

@@vanessar.4960 yes, the story of Medusa only makes sense when you know that she was a rape victim.
