I can't find any good explanation of natal venus retrograde. So I would be more than interested if some of you are willing to share their experience of this.

Do you have general love issues?
Do you find that relationships are harder for you than they should be? Do you have an easy time finding someone and actually be in a relationship with them, or do you struggle in that department?
Do you sometimes feel different regarding love, sex and relationship?
Do you have issues surrounding your looks?
Is it easy for you to express feelings? flirt, and overall be an outgoing sociable person?
DO you have highly karmic encounters? Do you feel love deprived?

I ask many questions but you don't have to answer them all. I just would like to get an idea of how venus retrograde manifests in daily life since most of the time articles are focused on the spiritual side of the placement.

Hi.
I've Venus (R) in 1st house Scorp.

Relationships are of very high importance for me. I feel not in my skin if anything is not in order in my love life.
Easy time finding someone? - most of my life I've been with "someone" special. There was 1 period when I was alone about a year, after separating from one guy. That was a hard to be alone. I left that guy so it was not a broken heart, still it was hard for me in general to live my life without a boyfriend.
But I'm not searching for quantity. If I choose to be with someone then I stay. I usually do not keep dating if it appears that we don't match. In general guys like me, it's just most of them want sex and not relationships so I leave them. I want sex only with someone I'm in love with.

Is it easy for me to express feelings, flirt, and overall be an outgoing sociable person? - Only to person whom I trust. In general, no, not easy. I'm not sociable at all. I'm secretive and closed.

I hope it helped
Do you have Venus retrograde for yourself aswell?

Hi, thanks for your answer.
Yes I also have venus retrograde, in aquarius, in the 7th house.

It's interesting to see that you place utmost importance on relationship. They're also very important to me but I have a hard time with it. Romantic relationship especially don't come naturally. I really feel like it's the most natural thing ever for most people and yet I just am there watching them but aware that I don't have the same ease. But I also don't crush that easily.
I'm friendly and sociable when I feel good about myself. If I don't then I'll most likely say nothing and try to be as invisible as possible.

DO you think you have some different perspective on how to define gender roles? what beauty is?

venus retrograde is so difficult to understand..

Another Scorpio Venus (R) here. (in the 6th House)

I do have love issues. I’m very distrustful and I always feel that people are out to hurt me (in general not just in love). I find it very hard to express love but having a close emotional bond with someone is crucial to me. My main problem is that when I enter a relationship I immediately become anxious and want to leave. It starts feeling like a burden and suddenly every imperfection becomes visible. This of course makes me feel selfish and inconsiderate so I start blaming myself.

It’s also hard for me to express love psychically. I consider myself a very passionate and sexually open-minded person but I just can’t bring myself to have relations with others. I fear that it would make me vulnerable and exposed. I haven’t had sex yet (but I’m also young so I wouldn’t consider it strange)

I also have issues with the opposite sex. I harbor some resentment for the way women have been treated through history. I’ve outgrown my ignorance but when I was 15 I developed serious hatred and anger towards men. I’ve never been abused but every time I would read about a woman getting raped or beaten I would cry tears of rage. The traditional gentle and passive role of women also bothered me and to some extent continues to bother me. The notion that women can’t be aggressive or violent or if they are it’s just because they’re angry out of love. I know it’s a bad thing but I’ve never seen a book or movie where the woman was the villain (not because of a man)

It’s hard for me to develop crushes too. I’m very critical when it comes to love and beauty. I’ve never paid attention to the fact that my Venus was in retrograde. This thread seems really interesting.

More on Venus:
It conjuncts my Sun, Moon and North Node
Squares Mars (in Leo, 4th House) and MC (in Aquarius)
Trines Saturn (in Pisces, 11th House)

-I don't have love issues that I couldn't solve if I wanted to.
-I could find a relationship easily if I wanted, I just generally don't care for my own romantic life lmao!
-Nah, I don't feel different, I feel pretty average actually.
-None at all. I love myself. I notice little flaws about me, but they're small and barely noticeable, and even if they weren't, who am I trying to impress?
-Yeah it's supah easy
-I dunno about highly karmic, but the friendships I keep up with, are generally close and maybe even life long. Again, I don't have a love life because it's easier to just watch from afar and not try

I have Rx Venus in Scorpio! If anything, maybe retrograde Venus manifests for me because I feel comfortable just crushing and not putting effort forth. I really just don't care for having a romantic relationship!
