![]() The square is an aspect of tension that highlights things that are at cross purposes to one another-in order to bring clarity and force a choice. The only aspect that Venus repeats this time through Gemini is the three squares to Neptune on May 3 in direct motion, May 20 during the retrograde, and finally direct motion on July 27. July 11: Venus at maximum brightness in the morning (begins to speed up)Īug 7: Venus leaves Gemini Venus retrograde in Gemini meaning June 25: Venus stations direct at 5☂0’ Gemini June 3: Venus conjunct the sun (closest to Earth) May 13: Venus stations retrograde at 21★0’ Gemini Read me: How Jupiter’s Rare Retrograde Might Affect Abundance in 2020 Venus retrograde in Gemini 2020-Astrological AspectsĪpril 26: Venus at maximum brightness in the evening (begins to slow down) This means that the pre and post retrograde periods may not be as volatile as they sometimes are in other loops. Also, because of the “Z” shape of this particular loop-most of the dramatic shifts in Venus’ motion occur during the retrograde period itself. However, this is still a rare kind of Venus retrograde, with a chance to zoom into something much more closely than usual. ![]() And although Venus doesn’t cross right through the very heart of the sun this time (like the “transit of Venus” in 20), Venus is still much closer to the sun during this retrograde than most. Like a driver descending a steep mountain via “switch-backs,” Venus does a zigzag from above to below the ecliptic in this part of the zodiac-crossing the ecliptic near the middle. But since Gemini is the location of Venus’ south node, this is currently the only sign where Venus will actually cross the ecliptic plane while in retrograde motion. In all the other loops, Venus crosses the ecliptic before and after actual retrograde motion and makes a wide foray away from the ecliptic during the actual retrograde. Of all the looping wandering journeys Venus takes during its various retrogrades, its journey through Gemini is the most relatively straight-forward and symmetric. It’s often very useful and informative to look back at these times for repeating symbols and patterns regarding sensuality and love, social life, the arts, and fashion. Venus retrogrades only occur in five areas of the sky (which form a pentagram), and these repeat in the same sign every 8 years-so, the last Venus retrograde in Gemini was in the spring of 2012, and before that in the spring of 2004. ![]() These factors combine to make Venus retrogrades very intense. Also, during retrograde motion, Venus strays farther from the ecliptic plane than any other planet. Venus is retrograde less often than any other planet, and yet in the middle of the retrograde, it comes closer to Earth than any other planet ever does. ![]() Venus will station retrograde on at 21★0’ Gemini and will station direct on June 25 at 5☂0’ Gemini. ![]()
