The week of March 3rd, 2025: Venus Retrograde. This has been a very volatile period of time, much ado about the planetary line-up… but more important, in world news — the value shift.

Venus is the planet that signifies love, what we value, where we invest, our relationship with money, what we feel we deserve, and how we ideally create harmony — or not.

With the retrograde — right before the volatile events that happened between the United States and Ukraine (and therefore Europe, etc., etc). We are in a very strong re-evaluation period of how certainly the United States postures itself with allies and obviously the shift has been extreme.

Venus in the sign of Aries…. Aries is the sign that links to the planet Mars; this is an aggressive stance of Aries. It's decisive and makes a statement that is self-involved.

That is just one impression of what's going on with Venus Retrograde and it will continue through the next couple of months. It goes direct on April 12th.

Part of what we might all be thinking about this week is what do we value, care about and want to invest our love and money in?

This can be highlighted for each of us personally when you know where Aries falls in your horoscope. Obviously, people with strong Aries placement may feel this in a personal way. Also, Librans and Taurus, are the signs that are linked to the planet Venus.

Good general things to do when Venus is retrograde: reflect on what you earn. How long has it been since you've asked for a raise? Or if your self-employed, changed your rates — of course, in present economy, that may feel a little, again, volatile, difficult to confront or deal with.

But what's important is to look at it, evaluate and see, do I feel I'm getting my worth in what the output I'm putting in? And another thing very important to consider, am I investing what I truly want to work care about in things that I value most? And I think that this is a, in general, really valuable thing for many of us to reflect on at this point in time when, as I've talked at many, many times with this shift that we're experiencing. It's incredibly important to really choose what it is you're doing, leaving, investing, and how committed you are to an outcome that is in alignment to what you truly believe and care about.

So those are general themes for the weeks coming forward, but we may be feeling a real push towards it now that we're on the onset of this retrograde.
