daniel dowd excerpt:Venus retrograde... Our wants & desires suddenly get rattled... There's a sense of what we asked for isn't really what we want... Like seeing what you ordered at a restaurant & expecting it to be totally different... Venus retro causes the the focus to be directed at "real value" and the value of your "wealth & possessions"... Just watch, people will become very protective over what is there's over the next month or so... The mantra can become... "This is mine, stay away"... It can even go to extremes & become violent in some situations (Venus can be a total ***** when aggravated, hell the ancients used to use "human sacrifices" to try to appease her)... Yeah, the focus is directed at wealth & maintaining it. People seem to assume that "Venus" is all "hearts & flowers" but nothing is farther than the truth... Venus wants what she wants, when she wants it, and has every intention of getting it too... Even moreso now that she is in Retrograde Motion... So you'll find others aren't even trying to hide or mask their intentions or motivations when pursuing their desires... This is obviously going to show up in people' personal & intimate relationships... The "desire factor" can cause some (usually the more out-going) to take dramatic & impulsive decsions they might later regret... And it can cause some (usually the more introverted) to overcome personal "obstacles or fears" and "take a chance" at finding & establishing new friendships & relationships... So it can work both ways... Either way, the internal temperature is going to get a little warmer... (if you know the language I'm speakin')... hehehe... As long as you're core level honest about your "intentions & desires" you can have it made, another of his excerpt on planetary transits : One of the biggest shifts & changes you'll notice is the lack of patience with "Political Correctness"... It was great for a while, but when everybody starts seeing their life savings being vaporized... It has a way of changing people's perceptions... Hearing the classic "We Care" about you from employers, politicians or leaders just doesn't cut it... At first, people might have been "scared"... Now they'll start to get radically ****** off (Mars-Neptune)... Especially when they think they are being lied to or deliberately mis-lead... This is when the "words & promises" stop having meaning... People are expecting results and want to see positive action being taken... Money talks & ******** walks!!!... Spare us the "words"... Put up or shut-up... (that kind of thing)... In a very earthy Pluto in Capricorn terms... Adding in the explosiveness of the Sun-Uranus connection, there can be radical actions taken... Over re-actions... Un-expected actions... It's a very revolutionary in nature... Not in the way of the 60's they keep tryin' to bring back (glory days for many old time leaders)... Yeah, this can cause things to get way out of hand in a hurry. But at the core or base of all this energy is perhaps the greatest Spiritual awakening energy of all time... It's this energy that can lead towards knowledge, understanding & abundance beyond your wildest imagination... It's not about "saving or changing the world"... (that's a war against the Big Guy).... It's about allowing the Spirit to transform our lives in a way that makes us productive & as complete as possible. If you're looking for a way to sit back on the couch & be showered with wealth, this isn't the energy for you!! hehehe... This is the kind of energy that rewards the producers & will take away from those that don't... (that's the way nature works)... (pretty interesting... i love this guys fresh perspective)

Thanks, this is helpful. I feel like I've been coming to some fresh realizations about what I want since Venus stationed. I hope this retrograde will actually be a good thing.IP: Logged |

Interesting, thx for posting!I thought this Venus retrograde would bring my ex back into the picture some more...but instead *I* have had a change of heart and have decided that I will no longer be disrespected by him.., I finally see him for what he is and I do not like it. probably a better Venus rx effect than him coming back to me ------------------ Capricorn sun / Scorpio rising / Sagittarius moon IP: Logged |

Yeah. I am going to use that retrograde Venus transit going through my 8th and 7th house to get over my exgirlfriend once and for all. I want to find that special woman,and I won't be able to do that unless I get my exgirlfriend out of my system. transiting Pluto is sextiling my Moon with 2 minutes of arc and will be conjuncting my Sun/Moon midpoint. also when Venus goes stationary direct in 29'12 Pisces on April 17, it will be in my 7th opposing my Pluto in 0'51 Libra in 1st with 1'39 orb. That seems to fit with regeneration,elimination involving love,relationships. Transiting Pluto will already be retrograde since April 4th which is the day of the healing shaman workshop that I am going to attend. It will be sextiling my Moon with 4 minutes of arc,trining my Sedna with 1'08 orb, forming a minor grand trine with my Moon sextile Sedna,and square my Moon/Sedna midpoint in 2'38 Aries. Transiting Moon will be trining my Pluto with 18 minutes of arc and square my Sedna with 1'33 orb.
Synchronicity is amazing.
I definitely believe that this transit is about reflecting on matters of the heart and letting go. I believe that with my newfound interest in Eckhart Tolle's teachings,Law of Attraction, my weekly shamanic healing sessions with Steve,and my being involved in interfaith unity church, my heart will be healed. I will move on and find that special woman.
The end of a chapter,and a beginning of a new one. Raymond IP: Logged |

Let's see what I've already accomplished in one week:"...aren't even trying to hide or mask their intentions or motivations when pursuing their desires" - check. "The "desire factor" can take dramatic & impulsive decsions they might later regret..." - check. "At first, people might have been "scared"... Now they'll start to get radically ****** off Especially when they think they are being lied to or deliberately mis-lead... This is when the "words & promises" stop having meaning... People are expecting results and want to see positive action being taken... " - absolutely check. "Adding in the explosiveness of the Sun-Uranus connection, there can be radical actions taken... Over re-actions... Un-expected actions..." - check. I wonder what else I'm capable of if this is just how I started out the Venus Rx..?? IP: Logged |

a little venus retrograde action in my daughter's life - and bear in mind it is turning retrograde ON HER MARS degree..two and two thirds years ago her boyfriend was shot dead and died in her arms. she was 22 at the time! recently she has let go of her grief enough to look forward and met a man who seems to be much better for her and has started releasing things she had kept which were attached to the old boyfriend. she was about to return the rest of his things to his mom yesterday but worried the mom would be hurt that my daughter was letting go...long story short his very irate younger brother called up saying he was coming for those things and to "beat her ass"...well she handled it very well and defused the situation with her strong stance, AND packed up everything and sent it home with little bro! mission accomplished and she didn't even have to deal with the mom at all! for myself i have had to admit tht a pet project is probably not going to happen, and that is probably a good thing IP: Logged |

Yes, interesting. I was just looking into the last time venus went retro. It was back in July of 07 in Virgo til oct 11. It was in my ex's 7th house and my 12th house. During that time, I do remember that our relationship became rocky and broke up the month after. =/IP: Logged |

an interesting fact about retrograde venus is that it occurs in aries EVERY EIGHT YEARS, and in scorpio about the same frequency. other signs it prefers seem to be cancer and virgo, though occasionally it falls elsewhere...IP: Logged |

sunshine, yes if anyone signed up for the thunderbolt path it must be my girl, double grand trine in fire involving 7 planets AND ascendant, with a t-square involving her earth venus, fire moon, and air/water pluto/sat conj! every time she turns around she is facing another heavy duty transformational transit or progression or double whammy! as her dad says, if she makes it to thirty she will be one 'femme formidable'!!nearly there!! and it does seem she has finally met a man who is not actively bad for her!!
