Aries

This month could bring a faceoff with an authority figure, Aries. There are a lot of emotions here, but be the bigger person and talk about your feelings honestly. During Venus retrograde, people and patterns may show up for a second round. Don’t let this shake your confidence because you’ve come a long way in your emotional growth. You’re grounded enough in your self-worth to know what is worth your time. This is the time to walk away from what doesn’t suit you and. Your independence awaits you.

Mantra: When I’m gone, I’m gone.

Taurus

Check your ego this month, Taurus, if you don’t want to get burnt. You may find yourself being called to try new things in the bedroom during this Venus retrograde. Don’t be shy; drink in that experience. Submit if you want to, it’s all fun and games. You’ll get lots of attention in the community, so step out and shine.

Mantra: I can have it all. 

Gemini

Presto Chango! Poof! Suddenly you may feel like someone else. This may lead you to make some revolutionary changes in your life this month. People who have known you for a long time may be wondering if they knew you at all. This could lead to the end of some important relationships but honesty is always the best policy. Take comfort in learning something new. This new knowledge will serve you well in stress management for years to come. You may want to express more masculine than feminine energy this month. This will give you a vision that could expand for miles.  

Cancer

You may be feeling particularly restless with the humdrum of your daily life. If rinse, wash, and repeat has gotten to be too much for you, it may be because Venus retrograde is causing you to crave new experiences in love and relationships. Satisfy these urges with what brings you the most joy. Exploring new philosophies will blow some doors wide open for you. If you’re dying to take that trip, now is the time. Deep secrets will be revealed if you have the courage to answer the call to adventure.

Mantra: Variety is the spice of life. 

Leo

You may want to get down and dirty this month. You’ll find your passions leading you to the right place. Sensual experiences may be exceptionally exciting during this time. You’re not the type who usually enjoys monotony, but Venus retrograde could bring unexpected joy in the simplicity of daily routines. There could be drama in your community, so it may be best to take time to keep to yourself and enjoy the little things. 

Mantra: Doing it over and over again feels good (and it makes me look good too). 

Virgo

There may be problems at home that could shake your foundations this month, Virgo. This is because Venus retrograde will make life feel like a never ending party. It’s fun for a while but that kind of excitement may get old fast, especially for Virgos who appreciate routine. Even though the fun could turn to fire fast, this will show you new ways in which to view your relationships. The mask may come off, and you may see someone’s true face. How you deal with that is up to you. If you are looking for a partner, try to get that cute Libra’s attention. 

Mantra: Stability is a state of mind.

Libra

Venus retrograde is bringing up old patterns, Libra. People-pleasing can’t always be in style. Even though all you want to do is keep the peace, sometimes you must take a side. If conflicts arise with family or within your neighborhood, zoom out to see the big picture, including your own faults and shortcomings. This is not a time to party or indulge because your luck is being tested, so stay on your toes. The real change will come from getting a better look at how “the little things” can turn into “big things” when ignored. If you are looking for a partner, there may be a Virgo that is admiring you, talk to them. It could lead to something special.

Mantra: It takes two to tango.’

Scorpio

There may feel like there’s a war raging inside you. It’s a Scorpio’s nature to be deeply introspective, but the chaos is coming from an outside factor this time around. You may want to talk to a professional if you feel issues from your childhood resurfacing. Go out and have a good time if you’re the pressure is just too much. Dance, laugh, eat your favorite foods and remember to smile. Life isn’t as serious as it seems. If you do this, you’ll find a new kind of freedom and happiness you never knew existed.

Mantra: It’s all outside my head.

Sagittarius

First impressions matter, so if someone offends you right off the bat, it’s only because Venus retrograde is challenging your vision of yourself. It’s time for you to turn within and pay attention to your best friend: yourself. Consider your relationships with your neighbors, siblings, family, and your parents to expand your vision of who you actually are. This will lead to a clarity you’ve been searching for.

Mantra: I know who I am, what I want and what is best for me.

Capricorn

If you lose yourself, you lose it all, Capricorn. The sun comes home to Venus retrograde illuminating the truth about your core identity. If you realize who you are does not match the opinion of others, it’s time for you to take a look at how your actions and reactions may appear. The people who care about you may share some insights are worth a listen. This may change the fundamental way you do things, but it will be for the better. 

Mantra: I’m ready to compromise.

Aquarius

A transformation is occurring in the way you organize your life, Aquarius. You’re not wrong to be confident in yourself. Your luck is about to turn around, so get ready to celebrate! People in your community may look to you for guidance and leadership. Now is the time to share what you’ve always known you have.

Mantra: I’m ready for success.

Pisces

You might not get off on the right foot with someone new. It’s too bad this relationship may be doomed from the start but don’t let it get you down on yourself. Where your attention really needs to be this month is in matters of the home. Don’t take your frustrations out on the people you love. There are a lot of changes happening in the world that you can’t control, so ride those waves.  

Mantra: I’m just gonna go with the flow.
