Venus Retrograde in Aries and Pisces: A 40-Day Relationship Review

On March 1st, Venus—the planet of love, connection, and creativity—stations retrograde in Aries, beginning a 40-day period of relationship reassessment that will impact matters of the heart through April 12th .

 

This retrograde period occurs once every 18 months, offering a natural cycle for reviewing our relationships, values, and creative expression.

The journey becomes particularly complex as Venus backtracks through assertive Aries before re-entering dreamy Pisces on March 27th, creating a dynamic tension between our desires for independence and our yearning for connection .

"Venus retrograde in Aries prompts us to refine how we work with courage, aggression, and vitality in our bonds with others," explains an astrologer .

"Instead of leaping horns-first into fresh encounters, take this opportunity to reassess what you've learned from previous relationships—both romantic and platonic." 

During this period, people may experience reconnections with former partners or unresolved relationship patterns resurfacing for healing.

The shift into Pisces on March 27th encourages examining relationship boundaries and discerning between spiritual connection and potentially deceptive situations, as Neptune's influence can blur lines between reality and fantasy .

Practical implications during Venus retrograde:

- Reassess relationships: Examine both romantic and platonic connections

- Review creative projects: Reconnect with abandoned creative pursuits

- Financial reconsideration: Reevaluate spending patterns and values

- Past connections: Expect messages from former partners or friends 

This retrograde period coincides with Mercury retrograde (March 14-April 7), creating a particularly potent time for review and reflection in communications and relationships.

Astrologers recommend using this period for reassessment rather than initiating new relationships or major financial decisions .
