Peace and harmony will be restored now that Venus is out of retrograde.  It hasn’t been easy dealing with false friends, malicious rivals, and fly-by-night love interests but believe it or not there is a higher purpose to be served. Venus rules mirrors and she tends to show us our most unflattering sides when she is retrograde.  It’s not pretty, but it’s necessary information.  Maybe you discovered that you were too needy, too covetous, too jealous, or just plain too self-involved.  In any case you have a chance to own what you see in the mirror – and subsequently to own what you see mirrored in the actions of others – rather than to let those projections own you.  This will empower you in ways undreamt of before.  Signs most affected: Taurus, Leo, and Libra
