How to Make the Most of Venus Retrograde

During Venus retrograde, you can take advantage of the energy by focusing on self-reflection, introspection, and nurturing your relationships. Here are some ways to make the most of Venus retrograde:

  1. Self-Reflection: Use this time to reflect on your personal values, desires, and what brings you joy. Consider what changes you can make to align your life with your true passions.
  2. Relationship Evaluation: Evaluate your relationships, both romantic and platonic. Take time to analyze their dynamics, communication patterns, and whether they align with your needs. This is a great opportunity to address unresolved issues and improve the connection.
  3. Reconnect with Self-Love: Venus retrograde encourages you to nurture self-love and self-care. Engage in activities that make you feel good, such as practising self-care rituals, exploring creative pursuits, and pampering yourself.
  4. Review Finances: Venus also presides over money matters. Utilize this retrograde period to review your financial situation, examine your spending habits, and reassess your long-term financial goals. It’s an excellent opportunity to make adjustments and create a more sustainable financial plan.
  5. Reevaluate Aesthetic Choices: Venus retrograde can inspire a shift in your personal style and aesthetic preferences. Use this time to revamp your wardrobe, explore new fashion choices, or rearrange your living space to reflect your evolving taste.
  6. Practice Gratitude: Cultivate an attitude of gratitude by reflecting on and expressing appreciation for the beauty and abundance in your life. This practice helps to attract more positivity and enhances your overall well-being.

Remember, like all retrogrades, Venus retrograde is a period of introspection and realignment. While challenges may arise, it also offers an opportunity for growth and positive transformation. Embrace the energy and allow it to guide you towards a more authentic and fulfilling life.

  1. I tried this spread yesterday using the Mystical Moments tarot and the new Mary Mag oracle from Megan Wastersonn . ( sp)

    I was pretty shocked to see The tower for relationship ( position 2) and 4 of cups for self love.
    And 5 of pentacles for finances.
    Seems I have some work to do. lol .

    The new Mary deck is growing on me . I just overlook the wokeness.

      If you start with self-love, the other areas will fall into place too is what I’m getting from this. It’s about transmuting what Cancer Season dragged up between now and the Full Moon in Aquarius which is a Super Full Moon.

      I’m so glad you enjoy the MM Oracle. I actually love it. The art really speaks to me and the questions for self-reflection in the guidebook can be very useful.
