Astro Weekend
Friday, March 6, thru Sunday, March 8, 2009
Happy wonderful weekend! Friday starts off with an encouraging connection between our luminaries, the Sun and the Moon. The Sun in the sign of Pisces and the Moon in the sign of Cancer keeps you in contact with your emotions. This can be a good thing considering that Venus, the planet of love goes retrograde today! Venus rules, love, beauty and money, and for the next few weeks, you’ll be very aware of how these issues affect your life. You may find yourself questioning your relationship, the person you’re with and your finances. The inner search for happy begins as the planet Venus goes on ‘vacation.’ Expect some quality of life changes soon! A Void of Course Moon on Friday night threatens your ability to get anywhere on time after 7:29 p.m. EST. Keep your time table flexible! On Saturday, an upbeat Leo Moon promises to keep you active and your energy high as you run around to get things done! On Sunday, the desire for accomplishment can be attributed to a constructive contact between the Sun and discipline planet Saturn. This is a good day to formulate realistic plans for the future.
If Friday is your birthday, happy birthday! You are a Pisces who is young at heart and energetic. Friday is your best day.
If Saturday is your birthday, happy birthday! You are a Pisces who is has extraordinary vision. Monday is your best day.
If Sunday is your birthday, happy birthday! You are a Pisces who is independent with an uncompromising spirit. Saturday is your best day.
Aries: ‘People, who live in glass houses, shouldn’t throw stones!’ This will be your lesson from the Venus retrograde. Events from past love situations will flash before your eyes over the next 6 weeks allowing you a realistic accounting of why your love life is in the condition that it is! Be brave Aries! With the planet of love taking a ‘vacation’ in your Sun sign, you’ll have a few things to consider and the state of your partnership is just one issue. Your self image will also be under reevaluation from the 6th until April the 17th. Not only will you be able to see yourself the way others see you, but also your patterns in romance will be revealed. Reflecting with someone from the past is a strong possibility. If you take a trip backwards, talking about old times, try not to stay there. Whatever romance situation is created during the retrograde will become undone once it’s over!
Taurus: You’ll soon have a chance to finish some unfinished business in love! The Venus retrograde provides you the opportunity to either shut a door or walk thru an open door for love. Expect to hear from a few of your old relationships from the 6th until April the 17th. There are a couple of people from your past who can’t quite get over you or feel that they deserve another chance to make romance work! The element of secretiveness is strong in love during this period. You can start a relationship with someone and because of the nature of it, attempt to keep things very low key. Just maybe you or the other person might still be a partnership with someone else. Don’t forget the old saying of ‘how you start a relationship is the same way you’ll end a relationship.’ Keep everything on the up and up in love!
Gemini: It is important that you maintain your boundaries during the Venus retrograde. If you’re the type of person who has a lot of friends of the opposite sex, the chemistry between you and one of your buddies becomes a little too strong and ‘oops, there it is!’ The both of you cross the line from friends to lovers! Regardless of how much you’re attracted to this person, or how many fantasies you’ve had about them in the past, starting a romance during a Venus retrograde is the wrong thing to do! The timing is not right and neither are the circumstances. Once you become lovers and things are not quite the way you thought they would be doesn’t mean that you can go back to being friends. All things change! Not only can you lose a love, but you can lose a friend as well! Be careful of your romantic actions during this ‘backwards’ love period!
Cancer: Expect the sparks to fly between you and anyone you’re involved with during the Venus retrograde! You’ll undergo a personality change from the 6th until April 17th and take the person you love by surprise. Not only can you can become temperamental, touchy and difficult to be with, but your memories works against your relationship as you think about how unfairly you’ve been treated by one you love! All your thoughts are centered on ‘pay back!’ As the saying goes, ‘there is a thin line between love and hate,’ and your thinking can be hateful if you feel as though you’ve been taken for granted! You feel justified in your actions towards your mate, and unless they straighten up their act quickly; there is a strong chance of a break up in your relationship. The Venus retrograde will allow you to test the strength in your partnership. You’ll soon see just how much the other person is willing to take in the name of love!
Leo: Perception is everything in love! Your mind will dictate whether or not you’ll stay in a present romantic situation or bail! The Venus retrograde allows you to reexamine what has been going on between you and another person, and if you think that you can do better, or have a better situation with someone else, you just
might bow out of your current partnership if your mind is uneasy! Some things are hard to get over. Conversations are critical from the 6th until April 17th, as hidden feelings reveal the weaknesses in your relationship. If you find it hard to forgive and forget something which has caused problems between you and your mate, try to be fair with the person you love and not compare them to an old love. You could be guilty of selective memory! Don’t let the past confuse your heart!
Virgo: There is nothing passive about you when it comes to love this Venus retrograde. If you find that your romantic situation has been stagnant or that you’re wasting your time with someone who doesn’t appreciate you, that you’ll do an about face and change your behavior towards them all together! You might be kind, but you’re no fool and that critical Virgo mind of yours will remind you that there are more ‘fish in the sea’, as you busy yourself and prepare your ‘hook’ to find someone else! If you have a partnership and you’re trying to make it work, more creativity is needed to up the passion level in your union. March the 6th thru out April 17th is an ideal time to find ways of creating more spark in your love affair! Be more spontaneous and more experimental when it comes to getting the attention of that special someone. Don’t allow the pressures of the world to affect what you have with your partner. Your love life can fall victim of financial or family issues. If you love the person you’re with, hold on tight and put more effort into love! The payoff is enormous!
Libra: “Be still my heart!” The Venus retrograde gives you a ‘rain check’ in romance, as the ‘Diva of Love’ takes a ‘vacation’ in your relationship sector from the 6th until April 17th. When Venus makes a change, so will your emotions. For the next six weeks you’ll have a chance to mentally reevaluate the state of your love life and decide if this is the place you’d like to be! How the person in your life makes you feel has everything to do with whether you put more energy into your partnership or not! Your relationship reflects the quality of your emotional life and you may or may not be so happy with it! You can find yourself thinking about a past love and this may cause a few problems. If for any reason you think that an old flame treated you better than your present partnership, there can be a major break in love coming! Don’t be surprised if that same person you’ve been thinking about suddenly calls you over the next few weeks! It just goes to show you just how telepathically you two are connected and that there may be some unfinished business in romance! Your heart is up for grabs this retrograde! Only the most qualified person in love will win!
Scorpio: You get an ‘aha’ moment regarding love during the Venus retrograde! You finally figure out what is going on in romance, and quickly find ways to repair it! The state of your emotions are directly connected to your state of mind. If things are not going right in love, things won’t go right in your daily affairs! The person you spend time with is important. Being in the company of someone who constantly drains your energy and gives nothing back can be one of the reasons why you find yourself unfulfilled! The planet Venus allows you to make ‘u turns’ in romance. Don’t give it a second thought about making adjustments in love between the 6th and April 17th. If the person you’re seeing is not bringing you emotional security, you’ll reach out and find someone new! But, you’re no quitter, Scorpio! Before you change partners you’ll make sure there is nothing else you can do to make things work before closing your heart to leave it with a clear head and a clear conscience!
Sagittarius: Certain things may not have been going well in your life recently, but you’ll get a major readjustment in your perspective when the planet Venus goes retrograde from the 6th until April the 17th! Your attitude about letting certain people in your life suddenly changes! The same person you won’t give the time of day to yesterday can be the same person who takes you out on a dinner date next week! What happened you ask? Love planet Venus gives you permission to take a few steps backwards, just to make sure you didn’t over look someone who can be wonderful to your heart! With all the pressure you’ve been getting from discipline planet Saturn, you haven’t had time to pay too much attention to your romantic requirements. And, this is when a retrograde Venus makes all the difference in love and happiness! Not only will you take the time to check love out, but you’ll sample a few love goodies and come up with a major smile on your face! Lots of new people will find you very interesting over the next few weeks! This can be a very adventurous time for you in romance!
Capricorn: Someone makes assumptions about your feelings during the Venus retrograde and you won’t like it one bit! Be sure to keep your boundaries in any relationship that is not clearly defined! A person you consider as a friend will attempt to become a little too cozy and this causes you lots of concern, because this person knows your secrets! Keep your buddies of the opposite sex at arms distance if you think that they have a hidden motive in mind! Such a situation can become very complicated and make your life more difficult. The Venus retrograde gives them a false sense of courage as they attempt to make something out of nothing in regards to a romantic situation with you! In the mean time, a persistent lover from the past takes a chance and attempts to make a way back into your life from the 6th until April the 17th. To everyone’s surprise you won’t be running fast or far enough away from this person and your actions have your loved ones puzzled! The truth is that taking a walk down memory lane might do your heart a bit of good! Some things are better the second time around!
Aquarius: Communications can be very important to improving your love life during the Venus retrograde! Someone who can’t be near you or isn’t sure of your feelings will reach out to you more over the phone during the retrograde from the 6th until April 17th. Being able to have in depth conversations encourage you to see them in the future position of loved one and possible partner. What someone won’t say in person, they can freely say over the phone, because they have something to hide behind just in case you reject their advances toward you! The same goes for you, you could feel a strong need to call a person and make your feelings clear if there has been any doubt between the two of you! You will follow your inner mind and speak the truth which is in your heart during this period. Your love confessions will bring a positive change in romance! The other person on the other end of the phone has been waiting for you to say the right words before things can move forward in love! Do be honest!
Pisces: The time for compromise is over! You’re so tired of bending over backwards to make a certain person comfortable that you’ve forgotten those things which make you feel whole. The Venus retrograde gives you the freedom to make upgrades in romance! A current relationship will be analyzed and questioned as to whether this is a solid place for you to put your heart and if the answer is no, you quickly make a swift and drastic change! Don’t forget, your symbol of the two fish facing in different directions, so it won’t take you any time to change your mind if there is a need to do so! The reason is that you give too much of yourself too often and unless someone is being affectionate on the same emotional level, things will not be well in love! You get a few surprises from the 6th until April 17th! A person who values you will reveal their feelings. This could be just the situation you’ve been looking for! You may not have to look too far or too long to find love! Love seems to be looking for you!
