What is Venus Retrograde in Leo and Virgo Good For?
by Robert Wilkinson As with any retrograde, we are given a chance to do a review, taking a look back at recent developments ruled by the retrograde planets. Mercury RX gives a review of ideas and perceptions, while Venus RX gives us a chance to find a new value or appreciation in what we’ve recently experienced regarding things and people. When Venus is retrograde it’s a great time to reflect on values, relationships, and why we like or don’t like whatever or whoever, including our relationship to money, wealth, and things in general, as well as why we value what we do in our relationships, and whether we’re working off of old tapes, old hurts, old attachments, and old aversions in relationships that bear no resemblance to what we’re living with today.
