The journey we’re embarking on this Venus Retrograde becomes clearer as messenger Mercury meets up with the planet of love, money, and beauty in Leo. Fond memories (or former lovers) could come to mind, stirring up familiar desires. Negotiations or transactions from the past could come up for review too. The Scorpio moon forms a T-Square to Uranus and Lilith this morning, forcing changes that could disrupt our plans. A trine to Neptune amplifies our sensitivity and connects us with our intuition. When the moon squares Venus and Mercury this afternoon, we could feel tempted to self-sabotage. Our cravings could override our rational mind. The moon enters Sagittarius this evening, giving us permission to indulge and expand!

2022 ends with a cosmic rewind thanks to Mercury Retrograde. This is the perfect opportunity to look back at our year and notice patterns. What lessons did you learn? What habits did you form? Relationships and finances are the focus of this review today as Mercury and Venus meet up in Capricorn. We can express our love more easily and find beauty in the breakdown- but resist the urge to text your ex! It’s easy to be impulsive as the First Quarter moon moves into Aries.

The last day of Scorpio season brings love and understanding as Mercury and Venus meet up. This conjunction brings loving thoughts and words and a more expansive understanding of what we want in life. It’s easier to see beauty and silver linings today. But we’ll feel an underlying level of intensity as the sun moves to the final degree of Scorpio and the moon moves to the 0º of the same sign.

Expression comes easily today as Mercury and Venus meet in Virgo. Even in the critical sign of Virgo, our thoughts and words are infused with love and positive intentions. Meanwhile, the sun opposes Jupiter, amplifying our ability to see the bright side of life. If we lean into these positive transits, expansion is certainly possible. The new moon in Libra opposes Chiron on Monday afternoon- triggers are possible, but so is healing if we observe our wounds with love.
