Venus Retrograde July 25th - Sept 8th 2015

From July 25th until Sept 8th Venus will be retrograde. Essentially any Retrograde period causes us to review, revisit, reflect, remember, reconsider and return to the past. As Venus is the planet of love, creativity, money, harmony and relationships, many people may review whatever their relationship status is and re consider the state of their position.We are already in the Venus Retrograde shadow period so it's effects may already be felt or experienced. People from the past may return and lessons about love may be realised. Astrologers believe it is never a good time to act upon an important decision felt or believed during a Retrograde period, like eloping or jumping back into a past relationship, as often things are seen and felt differently again once the post Retrograde period. It can be a positive time though to have a heart to heart or to revise an old creative piece, to return to a past artistic or creative passion or to review monetary matters. So from around mid Sept after things Venus is well and truly direct again than see if you still feel the same way and if you do, fine! Venus will be entering Virgo on 18th but then moves into Leo from 31st July. Neptune will be Retrograde too from June 12th to Nov 18th just to add to the confusion about illusions and delusions from the past. The rose coloured glasses may come off!
