You'll be glad you did when Mars retrograde rolls around. Take some time for yourself to watch your favorite shows or catch up with friends. ![]() Inner planets Venus and Mercury appear to move in. One last thing that may be crucial for getting through Venus retrograde: If emotional conversations just aren't working, rather than push the topic, make some notes about what you're feeling and save them for later. Then, as Earth swings past the planet in its orbit, it appears to resume its normal motion west to east. Keep things around your home that help you feel grounded and burn pink candles to honor Venus as she moves through her retrograde to welcome tranquility. Practice lots of soothing self-care such as baths, enjoyable workouts, and healthy delicious snacks. Take a loving break and don't feel about it. If you're not up for that or aren't into being productive right now, that's totally OK too. Use this time to work behind the scenes, scheming your next move. You can make a bigger decision about your future when things are a little easier. If you don't know what you want in your relationship, it's also OK to ask for some space, too. Both you and your partner may feel unappreciated and in need of attention and loving reassurance - even without Venus retrograde messing with your emotions. ![]() Remember that we're all having a really hard time right now. Communicating your frustrations and needs is important, but it's crucial to do so with love. It's unwise to make quick decisions out of anger or to call your partner names during a temper tantrum, even if it's easier to do those things during this time. How can I use this retrograde to my advantage? ![]() Ramp up the self-care and nurture your inner child. We all contain both masculine and feminine energy Venus is the softer, nurturing counterpart to the more heady, aggressive energy of Mars. The saying "men are from Mars, women are from Venus," is outdated and gendered, but if we look at it through a modern lens and understand that gender is fluid, it can still help us understand what these two planets (and their resulting retrogrades) mean.
