…and back into Aries

Venus retrograde in Aries brings impatience in love to the surface. Impulsive attractions cool, old conflicts with partners reopen, and people reconsider what they fought for. It is traditionally better for reflecting on desire than for chasing a new one.

It begins in Aries season and ends in Taurus season.

Also retrograde at the same time

  • Neptune in Virgo — Mar 27 to May 9, 1937 (42 days of overlap)
  • Pluto in Cancer — Mar 27 to Apr 9, 1937 (13 days of overlap)
  • Mars in Sagittarius — Apr 14 to May 9, 1937 (25 days of overlap)
  • Mercury in Taurus — Apr 30 to May 9, 1937 (9 days of overlap)

Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 1937

Previous

1935 Ended September 29, 1935 after 43 days, moving back 16.17° through the zodiac.

Next

1938 Begins October 30, 1938 and runs 41 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.
