Venus in Pisces
April 2017

For All the Signs of the Zodiac:
The Goddess of Love can assist you with forgiveness and understanding when it comes to close friends and lovers. This energy helps you to embrace others even if they’re different. Venus the planet that rules over love and money shifts into sensitive Pisces this evening, once again! It was already in Pisces just a few months ago, but has to go back as Venus is currently in its Retrograde cycle. Venus remains in Pisces through April 29th, and comes out of Retrograde April 15th.

So perhaps we are going backwards like Retrogrades tend to have us do to move forward again and this Venusian influence is of course about our relationships and finances. This influence puts out a very seductive kind of energy, so it’s a good time to sort of chase the object of your affection, but don’t make them feel trapped or boxed in as we can become fiercely independent! Even though we are more tender and affectionate usually during this time, we also can be hard to find or keep down, as commitment might feel scary. 

The Venus in Pisces influence opens our hearts to love, and the possibilities that love brings, so not just for the love of a partner but a Universal kind of love! Our hearts guide us to believe in the power of love with all people and in all sorts of relationships, be it lovers or friends and family! 

You might notice there’s a strong pull or longing for something you don’t quite understand or can’t put your finger on, which means you can be hard to satisfy. Your intuition can be very strong, and your dreams can be quite vivid or real feeling. Borders and boundaries dissolve under this influence, as we are lead by our spirit especially when concerning love and our finances.

Empaths and sensitive folks might want to really practice the art of “Shielding” now as you may feel more foggy and confused, and pick up on other folks in a very strong way. With boundaries dissolved we can see things more clearly than usual and connect to folks who have crossed over, as well as other realms where our Guides, Angels, and etc hang out!

The shadow side of this influence is we can be attracted to relationships that are more complicated and strongly unbalanced, so be more mindful with your heart and money during this cycle. You can also start to fantasize about romance and those old relationships and ex partners, this can make you feel sad and even somewhat depressed, but also idealistic about an old flame!

~Your better judgment may be clouded by this energy, so be careful folks! This is a time where people seem to forget why they left those old relationships in the first place. You may get tripped by your emotions and start feeling like you’ve got to give someone a second chance, because you’re only focusing on how the loving side of the relationship felt, and not the reality of why you had to break apart and what might have went wrong! 

Sometimes love isn’t enough and if you were with a Narcissist you could really get yourself into a mess, and maybe even put yourself in harm’s way. With that being said, some of you might actually gravitate back to an old partner that wasn’t a bad experience and feel like trying again, this may go your way but wait to commit until the end of May when Venus and Mercury both are out of Retrograde or you could suddenly realize you don’t know why you’re with that person again once the Retrograde cycles are over and the rose-colored glasses come off!

These astrological influences come and go, but their ultimate purpose is to help you learn, grow, and evolve from the lesson and challenges they serve, and of course to evolve. Venus in Pisces is very healing if you try to not get swept off your feet and take things slowly in your relationships. Also, we must take into consideration that Mercury is about to go Retrograde as well, which brings our past back around to heal, as does Venus in Retrograde. It’s a time to review and re-organize your life. But be extra careful, remember Mercury is known for being the “TRICKSTER” and you might just be fooled if you aren’t paying attention. Otherwise, this cycle can help you heal old emotional wounds if you just keep your wits about you and don’t allow those loving feelings to run away from you and get you wrapped up in a bad relationship.
