Thank you for being here
Our Purpose —
To right the injustice of the forgotten Feminine and reclaim the Feminine Self^, gracefully & lovingly, in each and every-one of us.
^VRC is for all those who wish to connect with their own Feminine Self. We believe the Feminine Self is an energetic within each of us, within every living being. It is not the same as identifying with female as a gender. And we see the Feminine Principle as the collective energy, beyond the individual Self. VRC is hosted by women, so almost by default it mainly attracts circles of women but it's not limited in this way. Whether you're a modern-day stargazer, astro-curious, or simply intrigued by the energies around us, you are welcome.
About Venus Rose Club (VRC)
From VRC founder, Jemma
This is a creating - an alive, ever-unfolding, beauteous thing - full of intention, grace, and love; attuned to the stardust trail of Venus as she glides above and below the horizon.
Venus Rose Club (VRC) is a part of my personal path for how I’m healing my relationship with my body, and opening myself to receiving love. Though Venus is best known as the Planet of Love, she is multi-dimensional. She is the sentient body and the sensual embodied. She’s our receptivity and all of how we relate.
She is the key to knowing all shades of love: forgiveness, compassion, acceptance, grace. How these are woven within us, and expressed to every other living thing (and I’m in no way saying I’m there yet!). She is that path back to a wholeness and a Feminine Sovereignty that we all need right now.
VRC is a hang-out. A space where we’ll share, laugh and love. As we deepen our faith in Venus, we’ll deepen our connection with our bodies and with each other. We’ll stargaze. We’ll ask tough questions. We’ll celebrate. We’ll learn from the oldest archetypal energies and mythologies.
We’ll soul-search. We’ll know joy. We’ll become.
Are you in?
Together we’re growing the divinest club. The kinda Divine where grace and grit mix just fine. Where gentleness lives alongside strength and power. An ancient, feminine power.
About me (Jemma)
It felt weird to write about myself in the 3rd person, so forgive me for switching it up for this bit.
My name is Jemma Jackson. I’m not the most confident in front of a camera, but will post a more personal video soon with a heartfelt welcome to VRC and an introduction to me.
But so you know, I’m beyond grateful that you’re here. Whether you discovered VRC via our monthly Venus-Moon Circles, via the #astrologersofinstagram hashtag, or a typo when Googling, it’s amazing that people are giving this community their energy and time.
I believe I follow Intuitive Astrology as my practice, but I am not wedded to any one approach because I believe they all hold wisdom and merit, (like the entire Universe!)
Sadly, I’m not an astrologer who can claim they’ve studied it since they were a toddler. I wish I could! I’ve been enraptured and captured by the Moon since my teens. And I know I’m not alone - perhaps you’re here because you feel the same? I used to scan the sky and try to remember the constellations, and seeing something shooting across the blackened background would take my breath away.
I am also obsessed with mythology and stories, my two loves before my affair with the Moon. Myth has led me to ancient civilisations and deep transformations. It’s an energy and a mystery and a magic. I love it.
Sadly, only during my degree and dissertation did I realise how this mythology and its narrative patterns are weighted towards patriarchy. Though they are our path to the past, they are perhaps part of the problem. So, with VRC, I’ve taken it upon myself to restory the Feminine in myth, and reclaim her immeasurable power. Are you in?
Soon I will launch my coaching and facilitation portal: Repattern (www.repattern.co) where I will share more of my practices in Yoga Nidra, Sound Therapy, Intuitive Coaching and space holding.
I’ve been in service of the Astros for the last 10 years, and built enough confidence to speak about it publicly in the last two. Alongside this, I’ve had a 15-year career as a strategy consultant (eeek, dirty words). Though I feel closer than ever to my true calling, I am grateful to where I’ve been. From this past-life I have developed deep experience and expertise in how to facilitate, hold space and lead world-shaping conversations.
Working with me
I’m working on a new coaching offer that effortlessly weaves-in the wisdom and themes of Astrology. It’s a highly personal and gracefully powerful opportunity for self-exploration and self-becoming. I know because… this is how I experience the Astrology myself!
I’ll share more soon.

As a Capricorn-Sun, I am one of the biggest supporters of integrity, and ensure credit is paid where it is due.
I’ve studied Astrology (Modern and Sidereal) and Yoga Nidra with Jana Roemer , do check-out her incredible Attune to the Moon platform. And with my teacher Vicky Green, who’s an energy worker, astrologer and executive coach. Plus, I self-study Intuitive Astrology 24/7 (I really do).
I read Ancient History at Uni, and specialised in prehistoric cultures and gender in ancient mythology. I’ve also completed an extensive residential course at the School of Myth chiefed by Dr. Martin Shaw, and will weave the incredible imaginals he shared with us into VRCs curriculum.
Part of the logic and frameworks woven into VRC follows the work of Adam Gainsburg and his brilliant book The Light of Venus: Embracing Your Deeper Feminine, Empowering Our Shared Future (2012).
I’ve delivered workshops with the Psychedelic Society in London, and collaborate with Rooted Healing, bringing Intuitive Astrology and sound to their ceremonial spaces.
