Venus retrograde happens approximately every 18 months and it is a time of introspection and reevaluation, a chance to go inward and to make wholesome choices from the place where we won’t accept anything less than what we truly deserve.

We will be asking ourselves some hard questions about what holds the most importance in our lives, what do we allow to influence our choices and how can we hold our ground in the time of uncertainty and external pressure. 

Venus retrograde in Gemini will bring a level of confusion and indecisiveness, and not jumping to conclusions, making hasty decisions, while patiently letting the story unfold, is the goal. 

To understand the cycles that are accompanying this retrograde is crucial to making choices that are going to serve us once we exit the Retrograde period at the end of July.

This retrograde begins with a very karmically important connection with Neptune, planet of illusion, dreams and extreme sensitivity, which acts as a testing ground for our integrity and honesty. And we end the retrograde with Venus making connection with Neptune once again, but under different circumstances. Themes of self worth and ability to make choices from a high value standpoint are taking center stage here.
