Venus Retrograde: The Royal Polish

by Astrologer Salvador Russo

Venus Retrograde – on July 25^th the planet Venus will begin a 43 day retrograde period of which 39 days will be spent in the House of Leo. Now I’m not going to bore you about the mundane effects of this retrograde. Other astrologers can tell you about the dramas, breakups, shopping, and beauty blunders to come. Instead, I’m going to focus on the alchemical value and potential of this energy so that everyone has a clear understanding of how to cultivate their soul wisely as the Morning Star enters her moonwalk. So, if you’re looking for the deep wisdom of this time I invite you to read further…

Venus Retrograde – Golden Horizons

Let’s start with a bit of cosmic context. The Sun has just entered Leo and so has Mercury. Jupiter has been in Leo since July of 2014 and will remain in Leo until August 11^th, just long enough for one last conjunction kiss from Venus on August 4^th. Mars will blaze into Leo on August 8^th and then we have our next new moon in Leo on August 14^th in the degree of royal government. So, as you can see, there is and will be an extraordinary amount of Leo energy in the ether in the very near future. If there was ever a time to live purely and passionately from the heart it is absolutely, without a doubt, now!
