## In astrology

Venus is linked with love, beauty and money. Its retrogrades are rare, every 18 months or so, and astrologers read them as a time to revisit relationships and values rather than start new ones.

We share astrology as tradition and for reflection, not as prediction.

## The astronomy

Venus orbits inside Earth's orbit. It looks retrograde around the time it passes between Earth and the Sun.

Dates here are the 'stations', the moments the planet's apparent motion along the ecliptic stops and reverses, worked out with astronomy-engine to the nearest minute or so.
