Venus retrograde 2021, which began on December 19 and lasts until January 29, 2022, is likely to blame if you’ve recently experienced some weighty themes or feelings of perplexity in your romantic life. Every year and a half, Venus goes into retrograde, and during that time, we are prompted to examine deeply what it is that we genuinely value and wish to draw into our lives. While the impacts of this planetary backspin will be felt by all signs in some fashion, the signs most impacted by Venus retrograde will need to be especially ready for drama.
Romance, love, money, and beauty are all areas of our lives that Venus regulates in astrology. We’ll have to work through any underlying difficulties that are still present in these areas during its six-week retrograde period. Many people will have to deal with unresolved marital drama, while others may need to overcome issues with their self-worth or finances. These times are also known for making us reflect on our past romantic relationships, so don’t be surprised if your ex-lovers show up in your daydreams or in your direct messages. Love-related decisions should be made slowly, since retrogrades can make it difficult to perceive things for what they truly are.
Since this Venus retrograde is the first to occur in Capricorn since the winter of 2013, we’ll be getting honest about our standards for love and looking for clarity on what’s truly important. It’s time to start redressing these imbalances and placing your enjoyment first if you’ve been putting your effort into fruitless relationships or ignoring your romantic needs. For hints as to what themes may surface this time around, consider what was going on in your relationship life at the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014.
