Here's my retro...

Venus Retrograde 
* reconsiders before expressing love or affection 
* relates awkwardly to others
* doubts the love others offer 
* can become obsessed in relationships 
* feels let down by the commitment level of others 

Venus involves pleasure, love, romance, relaxation, aesthetics, peaceful feelings, harmony, money, and values. Venus tends to work by attraction. Approximately every eighteen months or so, Venus slips into retrograde for about six weeks. While Venus is retrograde, you are more likely to find your ability to attract what you want restricted or inhibited. You could find yourself much more concerned with achieving or maintaining external beauty, your flow of ready cash, questioning your ideas of pleasure, aesthetics, or even revaluating your feelings about romantic relationships.
Do you find yourself inhibited about seeking what you really want from your romantic partner? Does your ability to attract the money and attention you feel that you need seem to cause you problems? Is your natal Venus retrograde?
A natal Venus retrograde can cause you difficulty achieving fulfillment or finding your right romantic partner. You may be more in love with your ideas about love than you are with any real person you know. In karmic terms, you need to complete a life lesson about giving and receiving love and affection. You are here to determine what is truly of value to you and learn about creating a balance of give and take in your romantic life. Your romantic dialogue has a tendency to be far too internal at times, causing you to inhibit the flow of good things into your life. You will have to be willing to experience loving and being loved in order to attract what you desire into your life and create the feelings of security you need.

Hi Amianne it's in cancer... I'm careful when it comes to love because I know how deep I can fall and it's not easy to find somebody who has the same depth. I keep relationships light at first, I dip my toes in the water and feel how warm it is. Most of the time this makes ladies want to own me lol when I make love to someone it's not just physical but it's spiritual and soulful. I like to give. I have to be careful because I can get taken advantage of with the wrong kind of partner.

This one is a little hard for me...

Pluto Retrograde 
* keeps their chin up during crisis because ..... 
* they want to keep inner upheavals private 
* they get what they want by acting like they don't care

Pluto is the planet of complete transformation, upheaval, reversals, and bad beginnings. It spends on average, five months out of the year in retrograde. This is a time of destruction and rebuilding when intense situations and outside forces intervene. Be willing to go to extremes and prepared to cut away the useless in those areas of life represented by the house your Pluto is in, releasing what no longer serves you in order to regenerate your life.
Pluto retrograde in your natal chart indicates that you are here to learn karmic lessons about intensity, control, and struggles for dominance. While you are wrestling with your own inner conflicts, outside forces are likely to upset your life. You are likely to find public opinion can be fickle, giving you little outward reason for blind trust in others. The people who make up your world may revere you one moment and revile you the next. Part of your lesson is to refuse to get locked in a battle of egos. Penetrate to the essence of the situation uncovering hidden truth. Trust your instincts being completely honest with yourself. Forgive yourself and others, but do not forget the lessons as you learn that you are the final authority. You may not always be able to control what you face nor what is done, but you are in sole control of how you choose to respond or react.

It feels like Pluto has a lot of control in my life. He brings me so much hurdles to jump over. So much so that I am sometimes on my knees in tears praying for peace.

Neptune is also square Saturn in the 8th and I feel like I'm limited on what I can dream or my dreams shatter right at my feet.

Neptune Retrograde 
* feels guilty inside and so .... 
* tends to blame themselves when things go wrong 
* super sensitive inside and so ..... 
* puts on a tough skinned mask 

Neptune goes into retrograde five months out of every year, a time when a lack of boundaries, imagination, creativity and a desire to experience the pleasures of the moment can get the best of you as logic is set aside replaced by feelings and intuition. There is a tremendous amount of creative potential for you to achieve your dreams if you rise above your ego and focus your activities and compassion outward as well as inward.
Neptune retrograde in your natal chart indicates that you could feel inhibited by the harsh realities of the physical world, choosing to spend a lot of time in your own imagination. Daydreams could replace active participation in life inhibiting your ability to realize your potentials in the areas of life represented by the house where Neptune is placed. Substance abuse can be triggered by a need to escape and you can fall prey to your own illusions if you don’t accept people as they are and use your sensitivity to let go of limitations as you stay connected to others.

My life is constantly changing and not by choice but by certain unseen influences.

Uranus Retrograde 
* reconsiders outward expressions of rebelliousness 
* feels inside that they are different 
* outward conformist behavior masks inner feelings of non-conformity or ... 
* goes out of their way to upset others apple carts 
* has a difficult time finding their niche in society 

Planet of change, independence and risk Uranus is retrograde for about five months out of every year. While it is, you can expect the unexpected. The situation is not secure. Things are subject to sudden fluctuation and you may be feeling a bit stubborn, rebellious, your emotions explosive and uncooperative toward anyone or anything that represents the status quo. Internally, you may feel like you are so ready to take a risk and just blow off conventional wisdom or prescribed ways of doing things.
If Uranus is retrograde in your natal chart, you are more than ready to try something new and are very likely to experience wide fluxuations in circumstances in the areas of life represented by the house in which Uranus is placed even if your manner has a tendency to hide it. You really do have a tendency to push things to extremes there. You are actually a catalyst for positive energies if you channel your rebelliousness into originality as you move toward independence and personal freedom. Karma indicates that you are here to learn about individuality, opening up to an attitude that change is very good and that personal experimentation with the cultural order is as great way to shake this up.

You seem like a strong lady especially knowing any man has to be deserving of you. How does the Rx feel nowadays for you? For me I just decided to be single until I can have more time to put into a relationship. I don't do anything half way. The last one (relationship) was extremely draining. I put in too much, way over my limit.

He might have some hard aspects to it which would suck. Then again maybe he CHOOSES to be single. Just like I am for right now. This is my 1st time being single.

I don't notice it. I am always in a relationship so i don't see it's effects. But that may be because it went direct when I was 4.

Mars Retrograde
* reconsiders before expressing anger
* finds competitive situations hard to handle
* tends to repress and so ....
* can become depressed

Mars represents direct energy, physical expression, individual action and assertiveness, as well as anger, desire, sexuality, competitiveness and motivation for self interest. Mars energies tend to burst forward exerted in short duration. Every two years Mars goes retrograde for two to two-and-a-half months. What often results are upsets and frustrations in daily life as emotions which should be externalized become internalized; a kind of chewing up one’s self. When you finally explode, it is as likely as not that in doing so you will be acting out aggressively against your own self interest.
If you have Mars in retrograde in your natal chart, you may find that you are waging an internal battle causing you difficulty in asserting yourself because you are afraid of the consequences of releasing your anger. You may tend to over think before you act. You may find that you have a tendency to hold back. In karmic terms, you are likely to be attempting to make up for some vaguely recollected but deeply influential past misdeeds you now regret. Whatever the cause, you are holding yourself back instead of standing up directly for your own interests. This works directly against the life lesson that you are here to accomplish. You are learning about yourself, defining who you are by what actions you take. You will need to let go of timidity or a lack of direction in order work out how you can initiate actions without creating the chaos of needless destruction.

I think the same goes for me with all my 4 retro's...they're highlighted even more. I think sometimes 2 or 3 of them have retrograded at the same time in transits and I was probably very agitated.
Does anyone know of any sites that offer transit readings?
