Venus of the Mind is a newsletter devoted to beauty in the world.
I initially started this publication as a way to integrate my love of aesthetic philosophy with my twelve year experience as a licensed esthetician and my humanities training as a PhD dropout (i.e. recovering academic) who still relishes the thrill of research. It has since evolved into a body of work that is adjacent to but also beyond all that. Here, the writing converges on matters earthly, cosmic, and queer.
My hope is that every time you open a letter from Venus of the Mind it feels like you’re reading a thoughtfully crafted piece that enriches the landscape of your inner world. When guided by Venus, all roads lead to beauty.
