You may have noted the discussions, disagreements, and topics that surfaced between November 19 and December 19, 2021, while Venus was transiting Capricorn in the pre-retrograde phase. What was your response to them? Have they sparked anything that you are currently dealing with?
Venus slowed down and started traveling backward over the degrees of Capricorn it had already passed when it reached 25 degrees of Capricorn. This most likely brought back discussions and problems from the time before the retrograde for review, reflection, and reevaluation before continuing.
Until January 29, 2022, when Venus stations direct at 11 degrees of Capricorn, this retrograde will continue. Things are going to be extremely charged since this coincides with Jupiter in Pisces in the year 20212022.
Our post-retrograde shadow phase will last from January 29 until March 1, 2022. You may remember that during the Mercury retrograde shadow phase in 2021, a lot of us felt caught in a rut.
Inspiring us to move ahead and take action with whatever concerns developed in our personal lives at this time with more clarity and understanding, Venus will make its final transit over the degrees of 11 to 25 degrees Capricorn. Finally, we are prepared to apply the knowledge we have gained and proceed with assurance.

What zodiac signs will be impacted by the 2022 Mercury retrograde?
When you believe you have everything under control and your troubles solved, Mercury retrograde seems to mix things up. There’s always a problem lurking around the corner when it comes to astrology, and nothing illustrates this more than when Mercury, the planet of thought and communication, starts to move backward through the zodiac rather than ahead. Taurus, Gemini, Scorpio, and Sagittarius are the zodiac signs that will be most impacted by Mercury retrograde in spring 2022, so you *might* want to get ready for some technical issues soon.
Mercury usually stirs up temporary turbulence and commotion when it stations retrograde. This retrograde, which occurs three to four times a year, is nothing new to you because you’ve already encountered it numerous times. In other words, there is no need to be concerned; the world will not end, and you will survive it unharmed. Although miscommunications and misunderstandings frequently occur when Mercury is retrograde, it is also a lovely time to reflect on your life, look back on previous endeavors, and take care of any unfinished business.
Mercury retrograde this spring starts on May 10 at 4 degrees Gemini, going backwards. Mercury rules this mutable air sign, so this will be a typical retrograde experience marked by confusion and diversion. Think carefully before you speak, especially if you’re twisting the truth. On May 22, Mercury will reenter Taurus, slowing down the intensity of this retrograde and making it more frustrating for Mercury, who already finds it difficult to move through this rigid fixed earth sign. Fortunately, everything will finish on June 3 just as swiftly as it began.
What the astrological signs listed below should be aware of is:
Is March 2022 a retrograde month?
Yes, you heard correctly. There are no significant retrogrades in March, and because the sun will be in the spiritual, compassionate, and imaginative sign of Pisces, this month will be incredibly rewarding. This Pisces season is particularly noteworthy since Jupiter, the planet of expansion, adventure, and wisdom, will be transiting through this mutable water sign at the same time. Jupiter may work at its highest expression because Pisces is actually under its control, therefore this month will be full of happy vibes and lovely occasions.
In fact, you’ll experience a burst of energizing energy on March 5 when the sun and Jupiter in Pisces align. Jupiter urges you to break free from what has been restricting you and expand beyond your limitations, so follow this energy wherever it leads you. The ocean and the ocean’s infinity are symbols of Pisces. It simply keeps going around in its never-ending present loop. Allow the surf to pull you away at this time as you embrace a sense of boundlessness as vast and steadfast as the ocean.
By March 13, the sun will also align with Neptune in Pisces, heightening your psychic abilities and conjuring up purifying spiritual energies. This will inspire you to let go of your ego and follow the path of love because, in the end, love is the source and the goal of all that is. Let kindness, compassion, and generosity deepen your relationship with the world you share with others because, at our very core, we all want to be loved.
What effects will Mercury’s retrograde have on 2022?
Right, Sagittarius? You have never, ever, never in a million years left a relationship before. Ha! You’re the first to do it, so leave right away without turning around! It will be extremely important to consider how you collaborate with others and whether you are on the same page during this Mercury retrograde phase. Exes can even be waiting around right now, or you might discover that you keep thinking about someone from your past. You are advised to do so if you’d like to try to get back in touchor, at the absolute least, bury the grievance, forgive, and go on. Later on in the trip, either your career and occupation or your physical routine and health will be confused. Avoid making snap judgments.
How might Venus’ retrograde be avoided?
Mercury retrogrades are certainly familiar to you by now, as they are frequently discussed in astrology on social media and elsewhere. The similar idea applies to Venus retrograde, except instead of disappointments, crossed wires, and false starts in communication (Mercury’s domain), the challenges occur in Venus-ruled parts of our lives.
Venus is related to romance, ties, attractiveness, the arts, and wealth.
Venus appears to pause every 18 months (what astrologers refer to as “stationing”) before beginning to move backwards (what we call “retrograde). Over the course of around 40 days, the planet retraces its route by 15 to 18 degrees.
During this time, you will likely notice:
- more divorces than normal (both private and public). Long-term relationships that have been in trouble frequently end in a breakup.
- feeling a little “blah” or depressed, especially if Venus is strongly influencing your horoscope. (Notice to Libra or Taurus Ascendants!)
- Making an appearance are previous lovers, old pals, and distant relatives.
Here’s what NOT to do starting now:
- Don’t arrange a wedding or get married. Venus is the planet of love and relationships, and while Venus is moving backward and locked in the past, no marriage will begin well. (I’m addressing you Jennifer Aniston from the time you wed Justin Theroux. I yelled, “NOOOOO!” Not at all. Modify the date! If only you had a partner in astrology. I’m available, just to be clear!)
- Avoid beginning a new relationship. If you’re considering joining eHarmony, wait until Venus is traveling normally before doing so because beginning a new relationship during a Venus retrograde typically also ends in failure. Any beau/belle who shows up around this time should be avoided because they probably aren’t who they seem to be.
- Keep your beauty routine as consistent as possible. Have you ever considered getting red hair? being inked? undergoing cosmetic surgery? Not right now. Keep your present clothes and usual hairstyles. Any significant purchasing or remodeling endeavors will end in disappointment. If you do take risks during Venus retrograde, when the planet turns direct again, you’ll wake up, wipe your eyes, and discover that your hair is now maroon rather than red, that you now have a Chinese tattoo on your neck that says goat milk rather than world peace, and that your “killer new wardrobe” is made up of two sizes too large pieces of beige and grey clothing. You remember the commercial about drunk driving where the car keeps piling up bottles, blurring the road in front of the automobile? The result of a Venus retrograde is that. It moves directly, which is sobering. You are still susceptible to the scheming of Venus retrograde even if you are now aware of it. I can show that with the photograph with my maroon hair and my loose beige outfit fest. Your home is the same way. I’ll say it again: Don’t try to renovate right now!
- Avoid starting new investments. Venus is in charge of managing your money as well. Your senses are distorted while the planets are retrograde, and this emotional state might lead you to make very bad financial decisions. During this time, investments frequently overvalue or inflated, and when Venus turns straight, they lose value. Uncertainty in the world economy during a Venus retrograde period is another well-known phenomenon that can make things worse. (Isn’t it ironic that the legalization of cannabis in Canada occurred during Venus retrograde? What occurred to its market value practically instantly?
- Avoid making large purchases, particularly those for a car, boat, piece of art, furniture, home, or company. You’ll overspend, and your acquisition will turn out to be a mistake. You’ll either end up with a huge hassle or a money hole, or you’ll deeply regret your purchase. Your capacity to evaluate something’s worth or price considerably deteriorates.
When I tell that breaking these guidelines will result in you constantly hitting your head and exclaiming, “What was I thinking?,” believe me.
Here’s how to USE the retrograde period:
- Examine your connections. What’s happening? What could they do better? Venus retrograde can make already bad relationships even worse while even making good ones a little irritable. Try to wait until Venus turns direct before making any snap decisions.
- Examine your finances, assets, and investments. Reevaluate your future goals, but don’t take any action. Do not, I say. Do not.
- Organize a garage sale! You probably haven’t used the products you unload because you purchased them during a Venus retrograde, so be shocked when someone eats them up.
- Do you want to modify the way your home or you look? study the subject. Examine new hairstyle possibilities. Make a “dream board” with design concepts. But if you want to reconsider acting on thoughts, wait till the Venus retrograde is over. It will be a nice exercise to determine how much or if your values have changed to see what genuinely sticks once Venus turns direct.
