    In 1403 active courtier at the court of Frederick, Minnesänger and poet Tannhäuser became the subject of legend by stumbling upon the subterranean home of Venus. He worshipped there in what was forever after called Venusberg. There Tannhäuser prayed at the altar of the Goddess, and studied the ways of the followers of love. He remained there so long that the Court of Frederick had to send a company of soldiers to drag him out of the cave he had discovered to bring him back. Sadly, and like any good man having come to his senses, once he left and discovered that he had become a shocking laughing stock in his communities, Tannhäuser headed to Rome where he asked Pope Urban IV if it was possible for him to be absolved of his sins. Pope Urban naturally declined. Curiously what had disgraced Tannhäuser in the court inevitably knighted him in the realm, and made his journey to the Goddess the subject of poetry, legend, and lore for centuries to come.

    Replicant Roy Batty, the coolest of the renegades who escaped from an off world colony and made their way to earth in order to locate J.F. Sebastian and eventually Dr. Tyrell in order to try and extend their lives, said shortly before dying,” I’ve watched C-beams glittering in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time… like tears in rain… time to die.”

    What’s interesting to me here is that Batty never spoke of Venus. He never ached for love. Rather, he was concerned that his memory of seeing things near Tannhäuser’s namesake might be lost if he passed from the world of the living. Tannhauser himself stepped up to the altar of Love and while captivated there, could carry his devotion no further than the mouth of the cave. Both men seem to have discovered that love is not a blessing, the mighty Goddess is an action. When we stop loving, we are “restored” to sanity, and love appears to have left us. What curiously selfish and self centered creatures we are. To imagine that the very blessing of starlight could ever leave us. Instead we refocus our eyes, repurpose our hands, and keep looking beyond our own hearts for another Venusberg.

    As Mars enters my house, demanding my attentions be focused upon work, negotiations, finance, security, and other labors, I wanted to heed the calling of my heart to first build an altar, a monument of my own in tribute to Venus and her endless blessings. I felt it was time to assmble my own forces, and bring all our heavy stones down the hills, out of the towers, up from the ground, and down to the water’s edge and construct a temple, a monument to Venus. Not as a memory, but at a beacon, a tower to remind anyone within sight that this is where we must return when our work is done.

    Despite all that we think, all that we build or destroy, the blessings of love are ours in a moment. If only we lay down our weapons, and open our hearts just a little wider than they were before.
