Venus Enters Aries while Mars is still Retrograde and the upcoming Venus Retrograde

Aries is symbolized by the Ram

Hello all! I'm here to bring you the latest on the planetary happenings and we have just had Venus, the planet of love, relationships, finances, and values move into Aries, ruled by Mars on February 4th @ 2:57 AM EDT. Mars is ruled by the God Ares (hence the name), who is the God of War which brings a bit of conflict to our love natures during this season. Right now, Mars (the planet of anger, aggression, sex, drive, and ambition) is still Retrograde, which means it appears to be going backwards in the sky, giving it an inward and almost internal nature to the martial aggression. This can cause a passive-aggressiveness due to not being able to be as direct and bold as normal. Especially with Venus having moved into Aries which is known for these qualities and also being passionate, rather impatient, and at times can be prone to hot-headed tendencies. It is, however, a great placement for Valentine's Day with everyone ready to choose their Valentine and pronounce their love! This gives us the impetus to do so! This will be a great time for passion and going all out in the romance department! Just watch for those covertly hostile people who may not be using their grown-up pants during these next few weeks until February 23rd when Mars goes Direct again. Now isn't a great time to do anything financially, but it's a much better time than when Venus goes Retrograde on March 1st, so better to do it now than after that time. When Venus goes Retrograde from March 1st-April 12th, it is a very bad time to make financial moves and any type of beauty changes, like getting new hair styles. So, any money or beauty moves that you have to make, do before or after that period!!

Jupiter, the planet of luck, expansion, truth, politics, higher education and philosophy, also just went Direct again also on February 4th @ 4:40 AM EDT! Everyone, get ready for your luck to start rolling back in because Jupiter is no longer Retrograde!! Wooooo! Jupiter is currently in Gemini, the sign of communication, thinking, connections, movement, and adaptability. This may also change how the state of things is going in the U.S. at present with some of these policy changes and executive orders. There may start to be some light returning.

On Sunday, February 9th @ 7:08 AM EDT Sun in Aquarius meets up with Mercury in Aquarius so expect a day filled with interesting and quite stimulating conversations about all types of topics! The strange and unusual might be on the brain so be on the lookout for that in the coming few days!
