From December 19, 2021 - January 29, 2022 Venus is reversing its course!

Every year and a half or so the planet of love, pleasure, values, and finances goes retrograde for about 6 weeks. And this year it's in the restorative sign of Capricorn. 

Retrogrades are always a time of reflection, reassessment, and review. They are a time to highlight where focus and attention are needed.

And that retrograde planet is going to be emanating some serious vibes that invite you to examine them.

When a planet is in retrograde we can feel pressure and frustration. It can feel a lot like you're swimming against the current. But know that this is to help your reorganize and reset.

Once the retrograde is over, you can experience the clarity you were searching for and put it to work, moving forward with what you've learned.

But, here's what you need to know about the next 6 weeks!

During its retrograde course you can count of three areas of your life that will want thorough attention:

  • Suppressed feelings in a relationship that may come to the surface
  • Reassessing your values and what you really care about
  • Tracking your finances & establishing budgets

Capricorn is a cardinal earth sign that centers its energy around structure, methodology, conservation, and responsibility. It leans towards practicality and tends to be one of the more unemotional signs in the zodiac.

Capricorn energy tends to be more reserved with their affections, and this can make a Venus-Capricorn combo somewhat challenging.

With Venus going retrograde in Capricorn, be prepared for major boundary setting, clearing away the old to make room for growth, and strong financial analysis. 

Beware of misinterpreting messages, feelings of rejection, undervaluing important relationships, and isolating yourself - especially if you have a strong Capricorn representation in your chart.

Retrograde can be seen as a challenging time, but trust me, it is not to be feared. Try to take this time to learn and observe. Look within yourself to understand what needs to be recalibrated, but try to do it with an open mind and an open heart.

Were you born during a Venus Retrograde?

If so, then here's how your life may be affected: 

  • In a past life you may have been kept from seeking out what you desire, events that have kept you from someone you love in a previous life and is still affecting this life.
  • You may feel incapable of developing a meaningful and long-lasting relationship.
  • Romantic relationships may be lacking something that you cannot quite figure out.
  • You may connect your self-worth to financial stability.
  • To evolve, focus on what true happiness means to you, and always begin with yourself, practice self-love.
