The Astrologer Daily: May 15th, 2012
By Kelli Fox, The Astrologer
Gracious Venus begins her six-week retrograde phase today. When the planet of love appears to be in backward motion, we have an opportunity to reflect upon and reassess our relationships. We can see not only which ones work and which ones don’t, but also why.
During this time, don’t be surprised if old friends or lovers reappear in your life—this is a common occurrence during Venus retrograde. Also important is to put off making big-ticket purchase until after June 27, when Venus turns direct. Otherwise, you may very well regret what you bought when you notice your tastes have changed.
The Sun is at 25 degrees Taurus, the Moon is in Pisces, Mercury is in Taurus, Venus is in Gemini and Mars is in Virgo. With this combination of planetary energies try to: Revisit your stock portfolio and see what’s working for you. Try not to: Expect that buying expensive gifts will win you true love.
Today’s exact aspects and their keywords are:
- Moon Sextile Jupiter: Looking Up.
- Moon Square Venus: Overindulgent.
- Moon Sextile Sun: The Seed Sprouts and Grows.
- Venus, Saturn, Pluto are retrograde.
And finally happy birthday to Jamie-Lynn DiScala, Jessica Sutta and Zara Phillips.
