Venus retrograde: Love and values, revisited

Every 18 months or so, Venus turns retrograde for about six weeks, bringing old relationships, old patterns and questions about what you truly value.

How often
About every 18 months
How long
About 40 days
Themes
Love, self-worth, money, beauty

Venus rules love, beauty, money and values. When it turns retrograde, roughly every 18 months for about 40 days, those themes come up for review. Exes reappear, old relationship patterns resurface, and you might find yourself rethinking what, and who, you really value.

It's a thoughtful time for relationships you already have. Traditionally it's not the moment to start a brand-new romance or make a dramatic change to your appearance.

Good for

  • Reflecting on relationships
  • Rethinking values
  • Self-worth work
