I lost the best friend I have ever had when this started. I was un-aware of this retrograde though. The fight didn't make any sense but it was enough for us to end it. Also had this fling come back into my life yesterday. IP: Logged |

I had a sort of split with someone on the last day of the last (or was it last last?) venus retrograde. Been really thinking if we had postponed the fight to the following day it would have been any different. This thought still makes me smile. But I dont believe in retrogrades anymore because I've been retrograde ever since (even when venus turned direct). *I have been told by some to wait until the magic day when venus or mercury turns direct, where everything will be different. But really, there aint so much difference, its just another day.IP: Logged |

Laratry keep your mind on happy things-it is what i have been doing.Helps me to get through all the mess. money has also been a tought issue-huge debts in my name,altough it wasnt me..(family things..). i lost my dear dog whom i love so much John?Well i throwed my merc in 12th away and had 2 serious conversations with him regarding my feelings.nOt an easy talk - let us with some opened wounds to heal. It is cause of our issues regarding our home´s and families plus who is gonna leave etc.... i have been reading the secret and volume 1 and 2 of Conversations with God - it has been broading my horizonts. I know it is my New Self waking up - and im not that girl full of fears anymore. I have a few yes,but i no longer concentrate on that - as the book says:You will find Youself´s Soul when you act on Love and not on fear. i feel freer to be Myself.Strange thing.. IP: Logged |

kindjali, I would step back and give her space. Let her come back towards you when she is ready. Give her the time she needs to deal with her issues. There is either something from her past, or something that has finally surfaced about her own inner self that she needs to open up and clear. She knows how much you love her.Lara, I agree with Diandra. You attract with your thoughts. I would visualize him happy and healthy, with a protective white light around him. Diandra, Hugs to you....!

Very good advice, venus in gemini. That just gave me a lot of much needed perspective. Thanks! IP: Logged |

Just some notes I have been taking to help me through this. I think the best way to look at what we are going through right now is that it is an opportunity to heal "old wounds". During the coming Venus retrograde we have an opportunity to come to peace with some old hurts. Some of these were magnified beyond what was reasonable, while others were taken on taken on for whatever reason we embraced in the moment. Regardless of the source or purpose of old wounds, they must be healed if we are to be at peace living our Higher Self. All healing involves dealing with our wounds and doing whatever must be done to heal them. I have found that the most effective way to do this is through choosing to re-experience past traumas and hurts in courage and goodwill, being our own best friend and protector. Through revisitation and reflection we can revise our responses and over time see how we have been freed of those old wounds. Venus retrograde is a natural time to do this, and the coming square to Mars, conjunction to Saturn, trine to Pluto and tredecile to Jupiter can help free us of old wounds quickly, gracefully, and efficiently, as well as other Venus malfunctions. Whatever Venus energy forms need reworking, whether old vanities, old forms of enjoying ourselves and others' company, old values, or old ways of relating to things and what we surround ourselves with, the coming Venus retrograde should prove to be of assistance to us all. As a rule, retrograde planets indicate a period of seemingly inevitable or fated events that relate to their sphere of influence. They present us with a series of events over which we seem to have little or no control, relating especially to the sign in which the retrogradation occurs. Often, related issues from the past reappear and need to be dealt with. The retrograde period is best seen as a cycle, beginning when Venus begins to slow to a halt before traveling backwards through the zodiac and ending when she returns to the point where she first paused. However, during the cycle, the planetary energy is most powerful (and more likely to generate critical events of universal importance) when Venus makes a station, appearing motionless in the heavens. It is a time when we are called upon to go back and take care of unfinished business. Often we are forced to deal with deep feelings that have their origins in past events. They are activated on an inner level but are often difficult to express to ourselves or others while Venus is retrograde. Significant aspects awakened include the awkward square on April 3 from Venus to Pluto, which is stationary preparing to turn retrograde in the wee hours of April 4. Interactions trigger more serious responses than the circumstances might indicate. Something said or done in an innocent context may stir up old memories, deep passions, even anger and resentment. Whether your own passions are aroused, or you inspire such reactions in others, depends on how it falls in your own chart, but controlling your reactions is the key. Do not deliberately antagonize others or seek to arouse their jealousy, since this would backfire or lead to something even worse. If faced with your own internal conflicts set off by innocent (and not so innocent) gestures on the part of others, you will benefit by turning the negative energy to some constructive purpose. This difficult aspect is released on May 2, 2009, but remains in play to one degree or another at a profound, underlying level until after September 2010. There’s nothing truly to fear about Venus retrograde, but it’s always wise to take special care during this cycle. It’s not the best period for entering into a new relationship, because our sensors when it comes to love are not up to par. However, it’s not unheard of to begin a relationship under the influence of a retrograde Venus, and it survives. Venus rules our values, and when she is retrograde, we don’t seem to be in touch with exactly what and who we value. After the retrograde cycle is over, we may look back and wonder what the hell we were thinking. So, do what you can to avoid major decision making during Venus’ retrograde cycle. A change of heart is likely later. And, the people we meet now may appear more fabulous than they turn out to be. It’s also possible that some people we meet now may appear less attractive than they turn out to be! Whatever the case may be, try to hold off until late April before making big decisions, particularly life-altering ones. I think it's best to not dwell on our own pain. To just hope that you are being a light to someone else. That you are helping them with their wound. Still hurts like hell though.

Well said, venus in gemini.My husband is in a severe depression right now and with all those harsh transits hitting him in addition to his recently finding out that he has Asperger's (something we suspected but now know for sure), he's really having a hard time and he's in a lot of pain. The Asperger's is making it especially difficult for him to see clearly. He's always had a hard time defining and understanding his emotions so this massive whammy of challenging energies must feel like a crazy hurricane inside him. I think transit Pluto conjuncting his natal Mercury is pushing him to the brink. I'd like to ask for everyone who can, please pray for him and send Divine light, love, healing and serenity his way. He's a truly kind and sensitive soul and what he's going through right now is tearing him apart. Any and all prayers would be greatly appreciated. IP: Logged |

Tigerlily,I am sorry about what your husband is going through. I have battled years of anxiety,depression connected to my insecurity,low self esteem. here is a neurodiversity site,and it has a lot of stuff on Aspergers http://neurodiversity.com/ Aspergers articles http://www.neurodiversity.com/asperger_articles.html Aspergers sites http://www.neurodiversity.com/asperger_general.html I plan on forming a nonprofit neurodiversity organization in the future that will cover Dyslexia,Dyspraxia,ADHD,Aspergers,Autism as well as any other atypical neurological processing.
there is one called DANDA (Developmental Adult Neuro-Diversity Assocation) in United Kingdom http://danda.org.uk/
I strongly suspect that he has very strong Kuiper Belt Object influences. I keep seeing them in the charts of neurodivergents. I also fit the KBO/neurodivergent profile.

Things are on hold with my Virgo, and for a while I was actually contemplating moving on relationship wise (one of my coworkers has been flirting, also a Virgo), which is a major step for me because I couldn't imagine my life without him romantically. Though he hasn't completely walked out, I can tell things between us aren't the same. I get the friend vibe on his part. Last night I realized just how much I really miss him and value him in my life. I'm a hopeless romantic for this guy, he's just so special to me. Ironically, the Venus Rx ends on what would be our four year anniversary. I hope things work out for us, as I am going to see him on April 15th. As I've mentioned before, I have major guilt as to leaving him or ignoring him because of his bipolar disorder. I don't ever want him to feel alone or betrayed or forgotten because I don't want it to contribute to his mood. But still, for the past year, things have been so chaotic and up and down with us. I'm the one who is still in love, I am the one who constantly makes the effort. He hasn't shown me any justification of his love for me for the past two years. Like I could move on to anyone else anyway, I'm such an idealist that I'm the one who should have been born a Virgo. And I kind of just feel everyone's been acting weird or sketchy around me, coworkers ,friends, family. Like there is some hidden agenda. My money is gone within the first weekend I get paid, it's ridiculous. IP: Logged |

This is a timely topic.Just 2 days ago I had to kick a former friend to the curb. I spent time re-evaluating the friendship and realized I was doing all the giving and never got any reciprocation. Very lopsided. IP: Logged |

Tigerlily, I am sending him everything you asked for. Although my "distance" healing isn't as strong as it could be. It's much stronger if I am able to physically touch someone. But I will do my very best. IP: Logged |

Interesting.. hmm so during Venus retrograde, it's better to avoid any big decisions.. But how about deciding to end certain relationships? Since during this period, old/hidden problems surfaces and needs to be reflected on, so then is it wise to make any decisions regarding to cut of any relationships during this period, or better wait 'till Venus goes direct?? aah~ anyone shed some lights on a lost Aries here.. ;_;IP: Logged |

That's what I'd like to know, Comica. I am also an Aries. Or...when will some sort of conclusion arise- immediately after the retrograde? What will that pluto transit bring? IP: Logged |

I think it would be to your benefit to hold off until Venus turns direct on April 17th. Even better to wait until it moves out of the shadow period, which is May 20th.Anne Ortelee said this in her weekly weather column on March 30th: There will be lots of “reveals” over the next few weeks. Reveals are when the part of the story that you didn’t have yet comes to light. The hidden crucial fact. The pivotal part of the data. The “Oh THAT is what is going on!” The steps in the process you didn’t know about and have to take to get what you want. The “Elementary, my dear Watson, elementary!” moment. Well it may have been elementary to THEM but it wasn’t elementary to YOU. You are the one who figures it out over the next few weeks. And then it will be elementary to you too. When the reveals come to light, you’ll have “Ah HA!” moments. After the “Ah HA!” moments, you actually know what you want to do. The doing, of course, will take a bit of time and be done down the road. But STARTING this week and going until April 15, you WILL come to KNOW. Or at least see it for what it is. Understand why things are the way they are. Gather the clues and put them together. A lot of the indecisions, delays, obfuscations, cloudiness and craziness will clear in the three weeks ahead as you get crystal clear and see things as if for the first time, with new fresh eyes, as the scales will fall from your eyes and you’ll get “it”, whatever “it” is in your life, in a way you never got “it” before. That is the scenario for the next section of energy we’ll be working with over the next few weeks as Venus finishes her retrograde station, Pluto stations and Mars visits with Saturn and Uranus. Mars to Saturn takes place this week ~ knocked off your horse as Pluto draws to a stop in the sky. Mars to Uranus takes place on April 15, when the scales fall from your eyes and you start a whole new 2 year cycle. I plan on waiting until the dust settles. But I can understand those of you with more Aries in their chart. With Venus in Aries right now, you almost feel that you have to get up and do something...anything. That "I gotta do something" energy is hitting you really strong.

Oh wow this is a far back bump! Now Venus is in Gemini ... and will be until August. Including a big ol' retrograde. Venus in Gemini ... Wants stimulation? Mental entertainment and intellectual connection? To be playful and busy? Not bored? I wonder if this retrograde will bring up our boredom and confront us with it through where we've been repeating the same style of something, and whether or not we are satisfied with the amount of stimulation it gives us. Hm. IP: Logged | |
