…and back into Scorpio

Venus retrograde in Scorpio intensifies questions of trust, jealousy and shared money. Hidden feelings come out, old betrayals are revisited and financial entanglements need reviewing. Traditionally a time for honest reckoning in relationships rather than new commitments.

It begins in Scorpio season and ends in Sagittarius season.

Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 1906

Previous

1905 Ended May 18, 1905 after 43 days, moving back 16.44° through the zodiac.

Next

1908 Begins June 14, 1908 and runs 43 days.

Both dates are computed from the planet’s apparent motion, not taken from a table. A retrograde begins the moment its daily movement against the stars turns negative, and that moment is findable to the hour.
