“Summit of beauty she was,
And Venus was her name.
She’s got it, Yeah baby she’s got it”.
Lyrics from the song, “Venus”.
Yes, Venus, planet of love and relationships remains center stage and now recently just turned retrograde in the sign of Pisces. On January 28, 2017, Venus entered Pisces where it is exalted.
This means it is operating at its highest and best qualities. Love, beauty, refinement, luxury and prosperity all come under the domain of Venus. We notice Venus more in terms of our relationships. As Venus is transiting through Pisces, a Jupiter ruled sign, it is also receiving Jupiter’s aspect in opposition. This enhances Venus’s already exalted state. Inspiring us and giving us the opportunity enjoy relationships. Venus is charming and alluring. So we are more interested in and paying close attention to the ones we love. Venus will remain retrograde until April 14, 2017. During this time, you may find valuable items at a discount. Art, jewelry, furniture, cars all fall into this category. What we value and who we value comes into view, in a subtle way.
As Venus is retrograde take time to notice how you nurture or care for yourself. And although you may think that selfish, it is an area of utmost importance. After all, how is your relationship with yourself? Self-worth and value are biggies for Venus. Taking time to pay attention to your own needs is honoring and nurturing your body, spirit and soul. Venus retrograde is saying, “its time to restore and revitalize yourself”.
Venus will continue to demand and receive our attention. This is a long unusual tour for Venus
to remain exalted in Pisces. And one that we can all benefit from. Venus will remain exalted until May 31, 2017. Enjoy!
