Venus is now in my first house, but I'm not feeling it, that way I usually do. I feel like sleeping for a week, and I might just try to do that. I can't focus on anything, and can't get my energy up. Dad said that he's been having trouble energy-wise, too (but we're also both grieving, that can take it out of you). I want to do things that have been put off, around the house, the Spring clean that never happenedTM (and hasn't for years), but I'm just so tired. The only thing is, my anxiety is also strong, so relaxing isn't easy. I slept for five hours last night, and was half-asleep much of yesterday, in a hot van/sun, with no air-conditioning. I don't know what else is going on, but I did look up Venus Retrograde. It stations right around my Sun/Moon and Sun/Venus midpoint at 11 degrees Scorpio/Taurus (station degree is apparently 10 Scorpio). It goes direct opposite my Sun, from my twelfth house. It seems like all I ever do is re-evaluate my relationships, go over things, I don't want to do that anymore. astrobutterfly.com/2018/09/05/venus-retrograde-2018-what-to-expect/A friend of mine took a few months off social media, and has the same social anxiety/PTSD issues that I do, so if I disappear, that's why. She felt much better offline, but I've never managed to fully do that. It was easier when my sister was here, my dog was healthy, and we were all getting out more, and spending time together. Anyway, I'll try to get a few things done today, but I also plan to try to nap with no guilt or worry of sleeping the day away. It's going to be too hot to be outside, and I just need to close my eyes at some point. Maybe later on, I'll have an epsom salt bath. I don't remember the last time I had one. Face mask, movie, more sleep. Fingers crossed. *edit. When Venus went retrograde in Scorpio, years ago. That's when my BIL hit on me the first time, and started causing trouble - although I think he'd started coming between me and my sister, before she even met him in person. Where will Venus be for you? What will it aspect?

Oh, one thing for Mars, that should really go in another thread: When Mars went direct, I started another private instagram account, only I haven't used it yet. It was supposed to be connected to goal-setting, thinking if I took pictures, it might help me make progress, the way 43 Things used to.

My 1st house starts at 26 deg libra and ends around 22 deg scorpio so the whole retro will be in my 1st house. My bf has venus in scorpio which falls in his 10th house on his MC, but the retro will occur in his 9th house. He will be travelling home to visit family for 2 weeks during that period, he will prob have to deal with his ex too when he is out there. So we will see.
Venus rules my chart and I dont like venus retro period tbh. The last 2 retros I didnt enjoy them at all(i was going through other transits during the last one)... this one will hit my saturn and pluto, oppose my juno and sextile my mars/venus/karma and neptune and my progressed saturn, pluto, sun and asc

It'll be opposite my sun, which is in the 11th house. Oh I hope this doesn't mean I'll struggle to find friends. I'm moving location tomorrow and am hoping my circle will grow a bit. I am however hoping to visit the friends I've made this year too, and I think the retrograde might be good for keeping the past in the present? Or is it about severing ties? Broken dreams built in a relationship? The planet itself will be in my 5th house. I am also quite venusian, but I don't remember the last retrogrades. I'm having relationship troubles right now and I don't know what will happen. May I offer my sympathies for your loss anela . I've been there myself. We are all here for you though

I'm just trying to make smart choices on the mundane level, to weather these storms. Eat right, exercise, clean, tend to the kids, read something soundly intellectual ("The Passion of the Western Mind" by astrologer Richard Tarnas...I KNOW I'm in good hands with him.)
A lot is going on in my life that's enough to make me unsettled, consumed with fear. I have to stay out of there.
Scorpio is about emotion I think. I'm trying to see what's ringing true for me, emotionally, and acting on what seems right in my heart.

So for the next two weeks Venus will be hanging out around 10* Scorpio, in a fairly close trine near Sirius.. kinda an interesting tidbit.
According to Mystic Medusa..

Whoa there! It's gorgeous. Nothing really beats a tight grand trine in a composite, especially when the moon and saturn is involved. A kite no less. I see so much lasting power here, a true testament to your guy's dynamic Ava

What could this mean for the Supreme Court and Kavanaugh? We're in the shadow right now. It turns retrograde soon.

Does anyone else feel like they're talking into a fan, as they try to communicate? I've had this problem ALL YEAR, at least, and it's really getting to me now.
I countered something that a person said, with what actually happened to a woman in question, when she was sexually harassed. They turned it around and said something else, and I went right back to what actually happened. Someone else twisted something that was said, and I pointed out exactly what happened, and why. Again. I agreed with what she was saying, but it wasn't the point of what was being talked about. It leaves me regretting saying anything at all. life was more simple when I let my social anxiety keep me quiet, and I just listened.
Oh, look. Mercury opposite Mercury. It's been in my 12th house, and hitting my Cardinal.
I've had Mars in my third house since around March. Squaring my Aries. Same with Saturn and Pluto (which is exactly square my Mercury). Now Venus is going retro in my first house. I want to scream. I have rarely felt relaxed, this year. Just happy, or calm. it's been stress, worry, misunderstandings.

And the disagreements are so dumb, too. I don't know why I'm having such trouble letting go. I used to be able to back off.

I've suspected that everyone is kind of wrapped up in their own issues at the moment, maybe dealing with Pluto turning direct? And maybe it's the way transiting Leo NN is coming to a close. People have so much on their own plates, dealing with their own issues, there may not be enough open and free attention for other people going around. Especially with Venus in Scorpio, a love-obsession could hog all of a person's bandwidth, make them negligent of details, make them sloppy communicators......... ?

We're coming up on this sun-Venus conjunction @ 3° Scorpio on Oct 26th. I guess I'll post a chart for that then. Here's the whole upcoming Venus phase cycle: 10 26 2018 Inferior Conj. 14:16 GMT ... 3Sc06 11 16 2018 Direct Station 10:51 GMT ... 25Li14 1 6 2019 Max. Elong. W. 6:10 GMT ... 28Sc45 8 14 2019 Superior Conj. 6:08 GMT ... 21Le11 3 24 2020 Max. Elong. E. 7:37 GMT ... 20Ta08 5 13 2020 Retro. Station 6:46 GMT ... 21Ge50 alabe.com/VeCycle-1.pdfReally not up for having Venus in Scorpio in my solar return for this upcoming year. Nor the hits to my nodal axis (my NN 20 Scorpio). I guess attitude is everything, but when you are soul-sick from too much Pluto, it's very hard to switch gears and get out of a funk.

Ava you`re right about people sort of being obsessed with their own issues right now. Also that Venus-phase. So the inferior conjunction takes place just hours before P`s private concert/ barbecue (well, yes we said it would be a barbecue in the beginning, and who cares that it is almost november now! LOL) Well means there is a Sun-Venus-conjunction that day (closish to my pr Uranus on 2 Scorpio). And Venus will also be in Scorpio in my Solar Return, on 10 Scorpio I think. my SR 2008 had Venus on 15 Scorpio (11th house, square Chiron and Neptune; trine Uranus exact): it was the year P and me first met SR 2011: 11 Scorpio (2ncd house, opposite Moon, trine true Lilith): very intense year, with seeing Jude Law in Anna Christie in London, boy THAT was intense, but also seeing P just a few days afterwards, and actually at the end of the year it was the first time P approached me, and doing so within the frame of a concert. lol SR 2016: 15 Scorpio (12th house; sextile Mercury-Pluto-Pallas, square Ceres, trine Chiron-IC, quinkunx Karma-Uranus); let`s just put it this way, I definitely was on P`s radar, esp, starting with mid may, I think transiting Sun was opposing that Venus then, a little drama, but also a lot of nice things SR 2019: 10 Scorpio (3rd house; widely conjunct Ceres, sextile Saturn; square true Lilith, trine Neptune on the DESC) Well, the SR Venus on 15 Scorpio is making a grand trine with my natal Juno on 16 Pisces and natal SAturn on 16 Cancer, but also square Moon on 17 Aquarius (and conjunct LANCELOT on 16 Scorpio SR Venus on 10 Scorpio is tightly trine my Jupiter-Ceres-conjunction, square my Pallas exact and sextile my GUINEVERE on 10 Capricorn (conjunct P`s ARTUS-MERLIn on 11 Cap btw. lol) Also falls onto my Draco Vertex-Eros-Sun/Moon-mp on 10-11 Scorpio. I guess next year is going to be another of those Venus-inScorpio-years. But honestly speaking, so far they have been pretty good and interesting years.

The three that happened in my adulthood were all hard years for different reasons. Edit: But I can see there were also silver linings each time, usually with a greater push towards spiritual growth. This time, 2019 SR, I have Venus in a grand trine with the Cancer NN and Pisces Chiron, so I can be optimistic about that.
