I don't necessarily feel big things from retrogrades, certainly not drama of any kind. I tend to defy them. But Venus-rx has been good to me. My relationship with my wife is improving.------------------ "Drift like a cloud and flow like water, seeing that all life is a magnificent illusion, a playing of energy, and there is absolutely nothing fundamentally to be afraid of." -- Alan Watts Soul Stars Astrology by The Declinations Guy Expert Rectification IP: Logged |

Can’t pour from a cup that’s empty. It’s time to fill my cup. Yesterday I did my homework with lit candles everywhere. Boy friend bribed me w/ edible arrangements to not smoke cigarettes this weekend. HE’S GOOD! Taking a bath with Epsom salts, eucalyptus essential oil and a camomile sachet. I’m trying a new hair style. It’s this vintage bun that is very high up. Not sure if it will look crazy. So I want to try it on a low key day. Shopping for Dad and grandmas birthday and more working on school and job. I am running out of so many beauty products. I’ve been using hair oil on the top of my fingers to get tangled out. But now I’m out of make up wipes and toner! Buy beauty stuff during Venus rx or make some at home? Hmmm IP: Logged |

Venus RxThe day my baby turned two months old, I and my husband had an argument and he told me to get out of the house and took our baby with me, just because I told him we need to start to do money management and merge the money to household and baby needs as I spent more of my money to cover it up. I wanted him have more responsibility and not just thinking about himself selfishly. When he said get out, I took that chance with no second thoughts. I packed my things and took my baby with me. My sisters helped me with everything. I moved from one place to another with my two months old baby for three days until finally we had a place to stay. A better place where my baby finally can sleep peacefully without those city noises and I can think clearly and focus to the future without being stressful with his behaviours. He started sending me a message yesterday. He threatened me saying nasty things. I blocked him. Then he called me at 2 a.m. saying he wanted me and the baby to go back home. I said no and told him to check his mental health. He got angry again, threatening me and trying to twist the story that I run away took the baby. I blocked his number. He still keeps messaging me, asking to unblock him and where I live, that he will come to take us back home and will give me money whenever I need it. He tells me that he will give me a time limit, or he will find my sister to tell where I am and take me back home. And he doesn't stop threatening me with twisted story. I tell my sister about it today and she says, let him come to me so your problems can be fixed and he needs to know where the problem is. That's venus rx for me. IP: Logged |

If these things ever do take the legal route, they can get nasty! You'd be surprised how many crazy, abusive people come out on top! If I were you, I'd record as many conversations with him as possible where he admits everything. Just in case. IP: Logged |

I can't relate well to someone who's never obsessed about SOMETHING in an extreme way. Even hobby wise, I love it
Haha yes I feel you! I'm for ex a hobby photographer, when I have my camera in hand photoographyng my pets or out in the nature, or photographing horses, I'm so concentretad I will not even notice how its been like 2-3 hours. I'm so focused on "one more shot" or "oh I have to try this or that angle" etc.
I have a friend who I have not many similarities with, but she is also into photography, and she too is totally "lost in space" when photographing. That way we have a strong connection, we both can get lost in tiime n space wander around together haha IP: Logged |

During thins Ve rx mode I feel much sexual desire. In the same time I've lost some nice amount of money (actual loosing money, unexpected bills etc).While I (thought) was recconecting with this guy I am in love and we're spending time together, every day (we skipped one), and while I was thinking " this is the period where we can grow, give the best for ourselfs, ok we can overcome past issues".. I find his used condom in a bedroom! So, this Venus is not so secretive, truly reveals our nature. I hope that I'll find someone (soon) worth of my time and love and have strength to fix myself and not remain bitter.

Figuring out how to not neglect my boyfriend when I am so burned out from people interaction. How we can be together when I am so burned out and under pressure with my new job, and taking condensed online classes. I have so much **** to do all the time, and when he wants me to lay in bed longer and cuddle I'll say "I'm already under enough pressure!" Like we both need to figure it out. (Saturn in the 7th and Jupiter in the 4th and 5th house era) When we first started dating he was working overtime. I was taking classes full time but working part time. I did not live with him yet, but I was still up for fun. I would make food, surprise him with washed dishes when he left for work. Shortly after I moved in I got a full time job. I hated that job, but all was well in my personal life. I cleaned and cooked, partied with him sometimes. (Saturn in the 7th house and Jupiter in the 6th house era) Then I had my hours messed with and was working overtime. He was vocal about me not doing my usual house keeping around the apartment. He did not know how to act now that I was working more. And it really did take about 6 months for him to "get it." Let him know that he can't want me to make overtime, and be a domestic Goddess when I can barely stay home. Started helping with chores more, rather than complain to me. (Saturn in the 8th house and Jupiter in the 6th house era) NOW It's different. My time home is spent emailing children's parents, making news letters for students families, lesson planning, and condensed online classes. He knows not to expect a homemaker, but I am just mentally emotionally spent since starting this job, and sometimes wished I lived far away from everyone. I feel so ungrateful that some of the people who like me right now annoy the **** out of me too. I haven't felt like this in 10 years. Where I have to tell people I need space in order to get some. People don't take me seriously when I calmly tell them I need down time too, no one backs off until I show how cranky I am. I just can't handle being popular unfortunately. "You don't have to go..." Same person who is like "come on..." after I tell them I'm not up for something calmly, and I start screaming. I hope everyone's day is better than mine. IP: Logged |

Today I found out the guy that I thought still had mutual feelings for me(he confessed several months ago, but we decided to be friends to know each other more) has been dating someone else for a few weeks.. He thought I didn’t have feelings for him, which I thought I showed and voiced obvious signs of my feelings(that’s Venus in 12th square Pisces Saturn for ya..).Looking back I feel it was my fault. When he confessed to me I made the mistake of saying I wasn’t really ready for anything thinking that he would take that as that I’m interested in him and wasn’t sure yet. My communication sucks where I say something that makes sense to me and not for the other person unless they know how to read between the lines. Now I know to be more specific God, this hurts.

well I mean he has been dating her for 2 weeks, they are not married probably not even official yet. Just be clear about how you feel and tell him you would like to try again if it doesn't work out with her, they did start dating during venus rx after all, not saying it can't work out but usually not a good time to start something anyways. Are you sure you like him though? IP: Logged |

That is sweet though that he is trying to fix it, with a 6th house stellium he shows love through acts of service. Let him fix it. IP: Logged |

Yep my debt went up significantly as a result of venus rx crisis! Definitely a transit of losing money AND car repairs. IP: Logged |

I’m sorry, I mean they’re a thing now. He is also not with a woman. I am sure I like him.. though not for long now. I can’t really tell him that I want to try again since I just now told him to let me move on lol.. I am not sure if we start anything that it will be for the long haul after they break up and after the rx is over. During our friendship he told me that his relationships don’t last more than 10 months, and I know I want to be in one for a lot longer than that. I think I dodged a bullet with him now that I really see he goes from relationship to relationship in the blink of an eye. His excuse is that he hasn’t found the right person yet. Maybe he’s just not the right person to be in relationships. Also now I know for sure he’s vulnerable to these kinds of transits. eta: I’m going to go with your advice to tell him I’d like to try again when things don’t work out and my feelings haven’t waned yet IP: Logged |

I am biased towards retro planets, I don't like them bc I feel they make me go backwards or make me feel like time has suspended and I want to move forward. Retrograde planets are like "ohh lets revisit this thing you don't want to revisit" or "ohh now is not a good time for that, just reflect and wait" or "here let me sprinkle you with some karma, you know that thing you shouldn't have done, lets suffer the consequences now." On a positive note I have dreamt of my ex twice during venus rx and is always nice to see him in my dreams. IP: Logged |

Is easy to romanticize the past but even if something from the past was truly great you can't go back to it. I value my memories though don't get me wrong, they are very important to me. IP: Logged |

Positive things I am noticing about RETRO transits today:*One benefit of this long uranus retrograde phase is that I am lately leaning towards a whole new direction in how to utilize this energy all of sudden. My partner last weekend became inspired and started making art work made out of wood. I want to help him make money from these pieces he is making. I think I want to reach out to stores that sell this sort of thing and see if we can get his pieces sold through them and if we get a response we can save some money and maybe eventually request for a small business loan and have our own shop or just continue to sell his stuff indirectly through other shops and promote his work. I would be in charge of promoting his work/marketing/networking and he will be the talent. With Uranus in Taurus transiting the 5th with Juno there too, I could see how this could be how this transit ends up manifesting, this would be a more productive way of utilizing this energy, not to mention a better investment of my time. Taurus is art and likes to use the resources of the the earth (wood, metal) and the 5th is about creating and small businesses. Uranus is about change so hopefully this works out and this could be a new way to improve our financial situation. *Also I have gotten a lot of praise at work today from a lot of people, my supervisor/director/coworkers to the point that is like wow I had no idea all of them valued me that much, the fact that I got it from multiple people, heartfelt stuff, out of nowhere. I am super flattered and yes is nice to see they respect and value my clinical skills. I have pluto in the 10th in Libra at 28d and TR venus RX is conjuncting that applying so I guess venus Rx is rewarding my hard work so I guess RX transits can also be good. I guess retro transits can be annoying but also good. IP: Logged |

Just few days before de rx phase starting the guy I was dating rejected me publicly at a party. I went to wave him because he had been on holidays so almost one month without seeying him. He waved me and gave me his back as if I was a random person who said hello to him. I felt so bad I almost cried there but I did not. I did it the day after. He texted me a few days after that and I did not answer, for me that was the absolute end of our relationship.I'm a Scorpio Saturn in 9th house conjunct Pluto in Libra 8th house. This guy has Venus in Scorpio conjunct my Saturn and Venus rx has been transitting our degrees. My natal Mars is Aqua squaring my Saturn so has squared as well the Venus transit. In my opinion, this relationship ended because of a karmic thing, I don't miss him at all. Feel much better now.
