"Venus Regulus" is a tale that entwines itself deeply within the heart of ancient African storytelling tradition. It carries the mystic echo of time, whispering age-old wisdom into the ears of new generations.
Unraveling within its folds are the songs of time, reverberating in the voices of ancestors long past, harmonizing the vibrant chants of the present, and resounding the unknown hymns of the future.
The tale begins on the arid plains of a village nestled within the crescent arms of Mother Earth. Golden rays kiss its people. Children of the sun, their bodies ebony, and eyes aglow with the starlight of eons. Among them resides a young woman, Amara Eden, who bears the emblem of the celestial body, Venus Regulus, in the ethereal hues of her eyes.
Legend has it that:
When the Venus Regulus aligns with the moon in the night sky, a portal opens - a cosmic gate between the now and the yet to come.
The conjunction of Venus and Black Moon Lilith in Leo, especially near the Royal Star Regulus, brings to the fore themes of passion, assertiveness, and power dynamics in relationships. With Venus standing still before retrograde, there's an emphasis on reflecting on love, beauty, and values.00:00 - Timelines (excerpt)

lyrics
Amara Eden, chosen by the cosmos, is born with the sacred gift of traversing the folds of time when this alignment occurs. Her destiny: to glean wisdom from the future to benefit her people in the present.
Our young heroine is painted with courage. Her spirit is aflame with the desire for knowledge. Under the watchful eyes of the village seer, Amara hones her powers, waiting for the night when Venus Regulus will meet the moon.
When the night finally comes, under the onyx canvas of the night sky sprinkled with starlight, Amara Eden steps into the portal. In the blink of an eye, she is transported into a world unknown-a world beyond her time. She meets people of the future and learns their language, their ways, their wisdom, and their follies.
Each journey Amara Eden undertakes is a vibrant tableau of lessons learned and knowledge gained, brought back to her village to be woven into the tapestry of their shared history. Her journeys transform not just her life but the lives of her people, guiding them on a path of prosperity.
"Venus Regulus" is a dance of time, an ancient African fable that beats with the heart of humanity itself. It is a tale that reminds us that the wisdom of the future can be used to inform the present; that time, like a river, is both a source of life and a bridge that connects us all. It is a tale as old as the stars themselves. A whispered secret of the cosmos that echoes throughout the eons.
