Beginning March 1, it’s time to take a serious look at your love aspirations and the dynamics of your relationships.
Venus enters a six-week retrograde, potentially dimming the lights on romance for a while. Discover your horoscope for Venus retrograde, along with the most auspicious days for love and weddings in 2025.
Every 18 months, a Venus retrograde cycle unfolds as the planet of love transitions from its role as an evening star, gracing the dusk sky, to a morning star, heralding the dawn. In the realm of astrology, Venus orchestrates the love language of the present, guiding the perfect romantic gestures for pleasure and passion. The retrograde of Venus can add layers of complexity to those issues. Rather than trying to make things happen, it’s an opportunity to lay old love stories to rest and craft new beginnings.
Venus, the embodiment of love, beauty, and luxury, infuses its lavish energy into each zodiac sign for a captivating three to five weeks. On February 4, Venus embarks on its journey through Aries. On March 1, it takes a turn, moving in reverse in the fiery sign, marking the official start of Venus Retrograde 2025. The most recent Venus retrograde took place in Leo, spanning from July 22 to September 3, 2023.
When a planet moves past Earth in its orbit around the Sun, it is described as being in retrograde motion. From our perspective on Earth, it seems as though the planet is on a reverse journey, retracing its path through the zodiac rather than moving forward degree by degree. Although these may not be the best moments to embark on new ventures, they present a valuable opportunity to reflect on our achievements and savor fond memories.
As we navigate the anticipated challenges of Venus retrograde in 2025, we might find that compassion and compromise take a backseat. As the subplots unfold, this Venus retrograde in self-focused Aries (March 1 to 27) followed by impressionable Pisces (March 27 to April 12) might just transform your charming prince or princess back into a wretched frog right before your very eyes.
Stay alert and avoid denial! Now is the moment to confront reality head-on while reflecting on your previous behaviors.
Venus Retrograde 2025 Themes
While the term retrograde might evoke a sense of fear and anxiety, it can actually serve as a period of productivity. Consider Venus retrograde 2025 as a unique opportunity for a “reset” in your love life.
The Venus retrograde of 2025 unfolds across two distinct zodiac signs:
- Aries (March 1 to March 27)
- Pisces (March 27 to April 12)
During the retrograde, the key aspects that will influence you include all types of relationships (beyond just romantic ones), your personal values, self-worth, financial matters, and spending habits, as well as your aesthetic and style preferences.
Venus Retrograde 2025 in Aries (March 1 to March 27)
When Venus moves retrograde through the fiery sign of Aries, tensions may rise, leading to heated exchanges between partners and friends. As tensions rise, strive to preserve vital connections rather than destroy them completely. Fortunately, Venus goes retrograde just once every 18 months, but this particular phase could be particularly intense. Nostalgia is the enchanting potion. Engage in activities that bring back the charm of a past time, such as returning to a location you haven’t visited since those early, blissful days. Embracing the energy of independent pursuits in the bold realm of Aries, followed by the introspective waters of Pisces, can rejuvenate your sense of self-love and bring harmony back to your relationships.
Venus Retrograde 2025 in Pisces (March 27 to April 12)
What are your essential relationship guidelines? As Venus retrogrades from the bold energy of Aries into the fluid realm of Pisces, consider placing a reminder on your mirror for a daily dose of motivation. As we approach April 12, it’s important to be mindful of the potential return of unhelpful habits, like compromising to gain affection or overlooking significant warning signs in a relationship. In every healthy relationship, understanding your boundaries is crucial to prevent any negativity from creeping in and affecting the positive energy. If your heart feels as strong as the gates of King’s Landing, this retrograde may be the ideal time to relax your defenses a little. Start addressing those lingering emotions to pave the way for closure.
And now… the good news!
As Venus navigates the challenging terrain of Aries, where it finds itself in a less favorable position, it truly flourishes in the dreamy embrace of Pisces, its exalted realm in the zodiac. Even during retrograde, a Venus-in-Pisces cycle inspires deep empathy between partners and reignites soulful connections. When you find the perfect match, it feels like you can almost anticipate each other’s thoughts.
Oh Dear! I’m Tying the Knot During Venus Retrograde 2025!
While it may not be the best time according to the stars to plan a wedding or tie the knot during Venus retrograde, let’s be honest! Life doesn’t always unfold as the stars might suggest.
If you’re considering a wedding between March 1 and April 12, 2025, we suggest either having a City Hall ceremony beforehand or postponing the signing of your marriage license until after April 12, when Venus retrograde concludes and the planet resumes direct motion.
Is there an alternative? Celebrate your love by renewing your vows on your first wedding anniversary. With Venus retrograding just once every 18 months, you can rest easy knowing that you’re in a favorable position.
