Venus&rsquo;s retrograde is the rarest of all the planets, happening roughly every 19 months for about 40 days. In that time, Venus goes from being an evening star in the night sky, to disappearing completely from the sky for a time, to reemerging again as a morning star. Ancient peoples were fascinated by this journey of Venus, and it is one of the oldest tracked cycles using astrology. Myths and stories were created the world over to explain the disappearance and reemergence of Venus, and typically these myths involved an underworld journey that resulted in transformation.&nbsp; How can we as modern humans take these mythic themes and apply them to our own lives during a Venus retrograde? How can we engage with the Venus retrograde energies to experience a transformation of our own Venus themes in our lives? We all have Venus in our personal horoscope somewhere! Some Venus themes include:&nbsp;<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">What we value (aka what we spend money on)</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Our capacity to recognize our self worth&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Our likes and dislikes, our attractions and aversions</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Our approach to relationship</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Romance, expressing love and feeling connection</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Aesthetics, tastes</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Our experience of beauty and of creativity</li></ul>In this class, find out how to work with the Venus retrograde cycle in general, but also in particular within the context of your personal horoscope.

We&rsquo;ll also look to see which house in your horoscope includes the Venus-ruled sign of Taurus.&nbsp; We all have Taurus, Scorpio and Libra in our personal horoscope somewhere!
