Venus retrograde in Capricorn

Venus retrograde in Capricorn examines commitment, status and financial security in relationships. Long-term plans are questioned, the cost of love is weighed and old responsibilities return. It suits rebuilding foundations rather than making grand new promises.

It begins in Sagittarius season and ends in Aquarius season.

Also retrograde at the same time

  • Uranus in Taurus — Dec 19 to Jan 18, 2022 (30 days of overlap)
  • Mercury in Aquarius — Jan 14 to Jan 29, 2022 (15 days of overlap)

For the sign itself, see Capricorn and its daily horoscope.

Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Venus retrogrades either side of 2022

Previous

2020 Ended June 25, 2020 after 43 days, moving back 16.5° through the zodiac.

Next

2023 Begins July 23, 2023 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.
