 The Venus Transit: Cycles of the Heart
Because Venus revolves once every 2/3 of an Earth year, Venus revolves exactly twelve times in the eight-year pentagonal period--thus showing the same side of her body to Earth in the eight-year period.
Venus retrogrades five times in one eight-year "retrograde series"--each retrograde occurs with every Earth-Venus alignment, and so they form in the same sequence that the pentagonal pattern is made (about seven astrological signs between each one).
Thus, the Venus Transit creates a condition where the harmonizing and beneficent resonances of Venus are highly focused (emblazoned) upon the Earth--inspiring a new level of "intuitive awareness" to permeate Earth and spread in and through human consciousness.

"God would remain, but the way we think about his 'creation' - the universe and everything in it - would change."

His thinking is this: just as the word of God echoes from "the beginning" until now, in all of us, so the stuff that formed the first stars remains present within the minerals from which we are all made.
