Do’s & Don’ts During Venus Retrograde
Venus’ movement through the sky and impact on our lives make it one of the most beautiful and intriguing planets. The months of May and October have a lot of Venus-related activities. She oversees the finer things that move us. Thus, she encourages us to appreciate life’s pleasures and luxuries, not to forget beauty. Furthermore, this planet regulates all forms of love, from passionate to platonic. Venus goes retrograde every 18 months, and when Venus is in retrograde, you need to be aware and know what’s going on. Some people might think that Venus retrograde is a time when they shouldn’t make certain choices, but it’s important to remember that…
Venus Star point
What is the Venus Star Point (VSP)? Simply put, the Venus star point is a conjunction, which is a major aspect of astrology. The sun conjunct with Venus is a common aspect because the sun and Venus can never be more than 48 degrees apart. And as a result, it is the only aspect that can be formed between these planets. But it becomes auspicious when, approximately once every nine and a half months, the sun and Venus will align in one of the five signs, creating the outline of a star. In another nine and a half months, she will undergo another conjunction with the sun. But it only…
Venus retrograde: With Examples
Venus Retrograde shows us that things never turn out the same way twice. When you do something for the first time, it’s always the most exciting and memorable. But by the time we go back to it, say, eight years later, we already have ideas about what we think it will be like. We’ve grown up and gained new perspectives because of what we’ve been through. Eight years ago, we had nothing to use as a starting point for our analysis. I say all this because Venus retrograde will repeat in the same sign every 8 years. However, it won’t be exactly the same because Venus is retrograding to different degrees…
Venus Retrograde in Leo for all signs
Think back to what happened to you this time eight years ago and eight years before that. I ask because Venus retrograde will repeat in the same sign every 8 years. And this Venus retrograde started back in 1991. However, it won’t be exactly the same because Venus is retrograding to different degrees (minus 2 degrees each cycle). As a result, conversations like conjunctions with other planets may or may not occur. For example, in 2023, Venus conjuncts Lilith and squaring Uranus. In 2007, Venus went retrograde in Virgo conjunct Saturn (restriction, maturity, self-discipline, and reassessment). Then Venus was retrograde with Jupiter (optimism, growth, intellect, and expansion) in Leo in…
Emerging from Retrograde: The Reawakening of Venus and Its Impact on Relationships & Money
Even if one isn’t highly romantic, financially astute, or a social person, Venus retrograde can have an effect. During Venus retrograde, we may feel less supported in relationships, particularly in the form of a heart-to-heart with someone that you may not often share your feelings with. Then, when Venus is direct, relationships and matters related to love and attraction may become more straightforward and easier to navigate. As a result, decisions related to partnerships, romance, and personal values may become clearer. Financial matters might also experience a smoother flow, and aesthetic pursuits could feel more harmonious and enjoyable. What is Venus Direct? After it looked like Venus was moving backward…
Mythology and Astrology: Inanna & Venus
Celebrating Gods and Stars: Mythologies, Astronomy, and the Divine Connection Many cultures were keen observers of the skies; they noticed the predictable movements of celestial bodies such as the sun, moon, and planets. These movements were critical for agricultural, seasonal, and calendrical purposes. As they studied the heavens, they developed complex systems for understanding the cosmos. The Greeks, for instance, were influenced by Mesopotamian astronomy and mythology, leading to the sharing of concepts and terminology. In these cultures, gods and goddesses were often associated with natural elements, forces of nature, and celestial bodies. These deities played significant roles in mythologies and were believed to exert influence over human lives. Associating…
