Exploring Venus Retrograde in Leo: Unveiling the Depths of Self-Expression and Love

When the topic is depression, some traditionalists often point fingers at the slowest moving personal planet Saturn, as it rules restrictions, coldness, and solid reality.

Though every planet, even the “benefic” Venus, can be associated with depression when it can’t fully express itself. The values of Venus are learnable. It finds us when we taste every flavor in a meal, get lost in an artwork at a museum, have a hand in something beautiful, slow down to smell flowers, and maybe let ourselves fall in love on a first date.

Venus stations retrograde in Leo between July 22 and September 3, a child in a playground who wants to play but also be the center of attention. Leo’s subjects will be experienced inwardly, often making us remember the past. Be ready to give an ear to remembering old creative hobbies, what confidence and fun mean to us, how much we give in our relationships, and whatever you want to “give birth to.”
