Venus Return
A new cycle of values and taste is beginning, so a recent preference does not need an immediate grand meaning. Spending and relationship choices show the shift first; list three things worth your time or money today.
In detail
A Venus return occurs when transiting Venus reaches natal Venus and enters the three degree corridor around exact conjunction. The full window lasts about five to six days, and retrograde motion can repeat the contact in separate phases. Venus governs value judgments, attraction, exchange in relationships, and spending preferences, so current changes in taste become a reference for the next roughly yearly cycle. A Mercury return reorganizes thought, while a solar return reviews overall identity; the Venus return asks what is worth liking, funding, and maintaining.
FAQ
- How long does a Venus return last?
- With a 3° orb, a Venus return lasts about five to six days, centered on the exact conjunction. Retrograde motion can bring the same contact back in separate waves, so exact timing depends on Venus’s distance from its natal position.
- Does a Venus return affect love or money more?
- It can affect both because attraction, relationship choices, and spending judgments draw on the same value scale. Which area stands out depends on current circumstances, so compare new attractions with new purchase urges and look for the shared preference.
