So far, Pluto and Saturn are retrograde. (See previous posts for a little more detail about them.) Venus is and “inner” planet, so it will have an effect on a more specific and more personal level than an outer planet which affects the patterns in your life. Let’s welcome the Goddess of Love… We know Venus as the lover and the Goddess of Love and make no mistake, this is where Venus retrograde shows itself in your life – love, relationships, compassion, and affection. Venus will be retrograde from 5/13/2020 to 6/25/2020 – about 6 weeks. Its position in Gemini will place the emphasis on ideas and relationships. Don’t forget that Saturn, the Lord of Karma, is in retrograde, so you might find yourself dealing with relationship karma during the next 6 weeks. Venus retrograde often brings feelings of disillusionment, deceptions, and insecurity, and you may find yourself with an increased need/desire for tenderness and affection. However, the retrograde position of the planet might make harder for you to give and receive that love, tenderness, and affection. The Gemini aspect of this retrograde may find you dealing with some old gossip and two-facedness revisiting you. There’s karma there – what part might you have played in the “drama”? While dealing with karmic issues, you may find yourself saying to a loved one/family member, “we need to talk…” Try to do so with tenderness and compassion – remember, Saturn is in play and we are sowing the seeds of karma that we will eventually reap. You might find old relationships showing up in some way – memories, phone calls, or conversations. You might even find yourself being contacted by old friends and lovers. (These might prompt the “we have to talk” conversation…) All will be lessons to help you sort out your relationship karma. Take responsibility for what is yours, but don’t take on what is others. Remember your boundaries. Take time during this Venus retrograde to be tender and compassionate with yourself. Commit to something (or someone) of value that brings you pleasure and helps you maintain your center during this retrograde season. While the outer planets in retro give us subtle shifts in energy and work on life patterns, inner planets (like Venus) move more quickly, work more personally and bring the epiphanies and “a-ha” moments that we can use to create change more quickly. Become aware of who you value and spend more time with them during this retrograde in some way. It’s an opportunity to really slow down your outward movement of love and settle it into your own being! The final planet jumping into the retro pool this week will be Jupiter! I can’t wait to see what that brings into the mix. As always, I look forward to reading your comments and answering any questions!
