A New Outlook in Love: Venus Retrograde in Leo, July 23

Venus, in Astrology, represents love, pleasure and romance — but also our values, aesthetic, creativity, and how we handle our finances. The planet goes retrograde every 18 months for approximately a month, ushering in a period of self-reflection in those aforementioned areas, and quite a few unexpected come-backs when it comes to our romantic partners specifically!

This year, Venus turns retrograde on July 23 in the sign of fiery Leo, and will stay in retrograde a bit longer than usual, until September 3. Because of Leo’s inherently passionate (verging on drama queen) nature, during the retrograde phase passions are more likely to mellow down, allowing us to see clearly what it is we want — and whether what we currently have is enough.

Read on to find out how Venus’ retrograde phase in Leo is going to impact your love life and what you need to keep in mind.

Aries

A flirt might fizzle out if you don’t pursue it. In a relationship? Try to be more playful and spontaneous.

Taurus

If you’re sharing, or considering sharing a home with your significant other, it’s time for compromises — or for a new home.

Gemini

The line between friendship and romance might waver. Choose your words wisely, to avoid miscommunications and broken hearts between friends.

Cancer

No more settling for crumbs, emotionally speaking. You deserve more in your relationships; it’s time to start demanding your due.

Leo

Time for a radical makeover, from your looks to your habits. Discover the new you, to attract the right people.

Virgo

An ex might make a dramatic comeback soon. Weigh your options between forgiving, forgetting or paying them back in kind.

Libra

Reconnecting with friends might result in more than just a packed social schedule. Your soulmate is closer than you think.

Scorpio

Finding love at the workplace is possible, but not the best thing for your career right now. Focus on work.

Sagittarius

Prepare for your beliefs about relationships (and love in general) to be challenged. Allow someone to teach you new things.

Capricorn

It’s time to relinquish control, and allow your loved ones to catch you if you fall. Trust that they will.

Aquarius

No marriage is immune to change; even the most important relationships need re-aligning now. Be brave and face those changes.

Pisces

Learn to love yourself, and to treat your body better during this time. It’s the first step to healthy relationships.
