My last 2 big jobs I managed other people’s money. I am currently retired so this will be the first V retro I remember while not working or looking for work. Not a powerful career but steady and easy for me to get good work in design services, wholesale (garden related giftline), and retail (specialty food). With a SN there, and ruler Mercury in Aries 3 degrees in House 8. Hi Kelly – for your databank – My MC is 28 degree Taurus and natal Venus is conjoined at 25 degree Taurus, square Pluto in House 12, 26 Leo. *(This post originally appeared on the blog in 2012 but I’ve updated it for now!) Post navigation How have you noticed Venus retrograde themes in your life?
If you have a Taurus or Libra ascendant or MC, then Venus retrograde can be especially potent in your chart. However, if one of Venus’ signs rules an angle in your chart (like the MC or career point) then Venus’ retrograde cycle brings, for you, themes of review and redo regarding career. Venus retrograde can arouse old love and relationship themes. When Venus conjuncts the Sun at 13 Gemini on June 3, she starts a new 19 month cycle in her visual sky journey. Venus retrograde is also a cycle of renewal and rebirth, of embarking on a new adventure. This is the area of your life that will undergo the retrograde themes of delays, review, revision and second chances. If you are familiar with your birth chart, find the house area that contains 5 – 21 Gemini.
This retrograde occurs from 21 Gemini back to 5 Gemini, so if you have planets between these degrees, they will be especially influenced. The current Venus retrograde cycle runs from May 13 – June 24, which is when Venus is retrograde in Gemini. Occurring in just five parts of the Zodiac, Venus’ retrogrades traces out a five pointed star – the pentagram or pentacle (the five pointed star inside a circle). IE in July 2015, Venus will start to retrograde at 00 Virgo, whereas in July 2007, Venus started her retrograde at 2 Virgo. Late Libra/Scorpio – October/November 2010 + October/November 2018Įach time Venus returns to retrograde in the signs listed above, the retrograde itself occurs progressively a few degrees earlier. Leo/early Virgo –July to September 2007 + July to September 2015Īries – March/April 2009 + March/April 2017 Gemini – May/June 2004 + May/June 2012 + May/June 2020Ĭapricorn/early Aquarius – December 2005/January 2006 + December 2013/January 2014 Through the course of your lifetime, Venus will only retrograde in five Zodiac signs: Venus’ retrograde cycle lasts about 40 days (does that time period sound familiar to anyone – biblical references have to be inspired by something!).Įven though Venus retrogrades about every 18 months, each Venus retrograde will return to the same Zodiac sign every eight years.
These distinct changes in Venus’ cycle also change the quality of her energy, with Venus as morning star known as Lucifer, and Venus as evening star known as Hesperus. Within this shift from evening to morning star and back again, Venus vanishes for short periods, remaining invisible. Part of what makes Venus’ cycle, and Venus retrograde, so magical, is that she periodically moves from evening star (one that’s visible in the few hours after sunset) to morning star (one that’s visible in the hour or two before the sunrises). Today, her astrological meaning emphasises the concept of unification, that of bringing things together, and beauty – an energetic quality that derives from her physically pretty presence (a feature derived from her astronomical closeness to Earth). In a variety of cultures, Venus’ brilliance has been linked to love.
One of the most famous – and oldest records –of Venus’ cycles is the Venus Tablet of Ammisaduqa, which is more than 3500 years old. Her cycles have been studied since antiquity. Venus* is the brightest planet – she follows only the Sun (technically a star) and Moon (technically Earth’s satellite).
