When Venus in life's core monuments goes retrograde, the fate of the Lord will have a profound counterpoint in the development of interpersonal relationships, enjoy sexual behavior, and get satisfaction from all beautiful things (such as cleaning the room or polishing the car so as to participate in the opera performance).

Retrograde means counterpoint (note: counterpoint is a technique that makes two or more independent melodies sound simultaneously and harmoniously in music creation), revision of principles and essence, and violation of conventions.

Venus symbolizes how we need to get satisfaction in interpersonal relationships. Marilyn Monroe's Venus is in Aries; In other words, she needs some intense elements in interpersonal and aesthetics, an aggressive or coercive frankness. Jimmy Schwager's Venus is also in Aries. Both men and women in Venus and Aries are frivolous and like to flirt. It is necessary to constantly test the water to confirm whether someone is worthy of liking. Of course, it is very important for astrologers to study the reasons for this demand: why do people feel unlovable in their hearts? What elements in family relationships shape this feeling?

Jacqueline Kennedy's Venus is located in Gemini, which represents social wisdom (John Kennedy's Venus is also here): her interpersonal needs are always expressed in a mental or even idealized way, from sexual relations to social interaction. Her life's core monuments Venus is also precisely opposite to Saturn, and her desire for idealization and intellectual process in her senses/sexuality is closely related to her lifelong disappointment and her unrequited relationship with her father.

Bill Clinton's Venus is in Libra and needs to strengthen himself through social reflection; Madonna, Michael Jackson and Griffin are all Venus lions, which adds a considerable sense of drama to their interpersonal needs.

Although the above description is brief, it is enough to show the characteristics of Venus in personal character. But when Venus goes retrograde, it will attach a counterpoint method, and its second hidden energy includes the demand for complex things and the satisfaction of depression.

Adolf-Hitler's retrograde Venus in life's core monuments doomed him to a complicated life: his relationship dynamics and sexual scale were taken as the analysis materials by many psychiatrists, and his sense of uselessness as an artist was linked to his difficulty in getting along with the world. Audrey Hepburn grew up in an embarrassed and lonely family in her early years, and she also had a retrograde Venus in life's core monuments. This kind of difficulty has been well hidden in her social motivation until adulthood, when she stepped out of her dream private space and defense tower.

In most people, Venus retrograde establishes the second kind of thoughtfulness at the interpersonal level-the need to get pleasure in sex.

I once had two clients, a man and a woman, who were born on the same day, only a few hours apart. There are extremely nervous Venus retrograde in personal astrolabes. In the process of growing up, they all feel that they are the black sheep of their families, and they need to constantly improve themselves and go to extremes in excessive compensation. The man's way was sexual conquest, and he kept a list of 2 different women he had sex with in a year, and he didn't consider seriously falling in love with any of them. This woman has lived alone for many years, never had an orgasm, and her life is as quiet as water.

each of them showed the two extremes of Venus retrograde. The core concept is that they are difficult or never happy, which is a normal state in their lives. They need to explain their frustration and regard it as a label of personality, particularity, idealized expectation and identity identification.

All these people with retrograde Venus in this chart feel deeply uncomfortable, and feel that they are not loved and valued by either parent. They can't trust the praise of others; Resist intimacy for fear of being too picky. In overcompensation, they will create some standards that can appease and even worship themselves (usually based on the characteristics of Venus' constellation), and these standards are difficult to achieve.

for such people, astrologers should be especially gentle. Sincerity and kindness will eventually make them trust themselves and their relationship can grow.
