On March 1st, we have one of the bigger retrogrades of 2025 with Venus turning backwards at 10 degrees of Aries. Venus will move all the way back to 24 degrees of Pisces before turning direct on April 12th. Aries in astrology represents: the self, initiation, leadership and fiery ambition. Pisces in astrology represents: the subconscious mind, imagination, spirituality, artistic creations and sensitivity.
Get ready as this will be quite a time! Venus rules the core areas of life such as love, money, value and comfort. Venus also rules feminine principles so there will be a lot of reflection, redirection and re-evaluation for women in particular but also within the feminine aspects in our lives.
This transit is quite noticeable as Venus ( like Mars and Mercury) is an inner planet so we feel the effects of the retrograde period more profoundly. Venus turns retrograde every 18 months and she goes retrograde in the same signs every 8 years. The last time Venus went retrograde in the signs of Aries and Pisces was from March 4- April 15, 2017. Similar themes and situations regarding money, love and value might re-surface for you during this Venus retrograde cycle.
Personally, I began Astromomma during this last Venus retrograde phase on March 26, 2017. I had launched similar astrology/tarot businesses prior but never got them fully off the ground so I used the Venus retrograde phase to re-invent and re-establish a new business. Ironically, that Venus retrograde was transiting my 5th house of creativity and self expression. Is another re-invention of Astromomma on the horizon for this upcoming Venus retrograde? You betcha! Stay tuned lol
Venus retrograde in Aries/Pisces is here to have us redefine and reflect in the matters of love, money and comfort. This cycle offers a gentle pause—a chance to heal old wounds, revisit past relationships, and rebuild the way we cherish ourselves. This redirection will begin with how we value ourselves and give ourselves love, attention and comfort.
There might be occurrences while Venus is retrograde in Aries where we notice how we self sabotage our love or focus on negative conversations from the past related to our self worth and value. When the Venus retrograde moves into Pisces on March 27th, there will be reflection and revision in how we connect to our sense of faith and ability to surrender our earthly ambitions to the higher power.
As with all Venus retrogrades, past lovers or friends come back into our lives. This is a time to reconnect with people and if you feel inclined to "try again" there could be reunions and reconciliations. If not, these folks coming back into our lives could show how much we have grown in relation to our self worth and lessons connected to boundaries.
Nostalgia will be super high now so allow yourself the space and grace to reflect and recollect.
Venus retrograde periods are also not the time to do major cosmetic surgeries, make risky financial moves or buy big luxury items. If you were already planning to do those things, don't freak out lol. You just need to know that there could be things you miss or don't see and revisions and corrections might have to be made once Venus turns direct.
Venus retrograde in Aries/Pisces is here to have us slow down and reexamine our beliefs connected to our value and sense of faith. Retrogrades often get a bad rap but that isn't necessary. These reflection periods are necessary for us to tune in and to learn and grow within our lives. If we never slow down to reflect and revise, how could we ever learn and become wiser and stronger within our lives? Venus retrograde is here to offer you a chance to practice radical forms of self love and focus. It is time to re-establish new self love practices that nourish our soul, reset our expectations and limiting beliefs connected to money + resources and give us a perspective shift on who and what we truly value in our lives.
