Uranus is supposed to be going retrograde on Aug 7th and I believe another eclipse is supposed to happen Aug 11th? Other than that....could just be all the retrogrades.

I've never understood retrogades. What is the main deal with them?
have you experienced anything bizarre yet?
I'd love to find out how that's touching my chart etc.click to expand

I hope somebody has an answer for me...because I'm feeling and experiencing all kinds of unusual things for me.
1) Important people to me that I'm trying to contact are non-responsive... for no reason.
2) I'm feeling super open emotionally, understanding, forgiving, and expressive. Also tons of emotional clarity on how I feel about people and motivated to communicate my intentions/feelings with them.
3) Drive to take action - especially with relationships.
this is sooo abnormal for me and feels bizarre like I'm a complete different person! Any one else going through something similar?
(i guess only thing that hasn't changed is my love of making lists...that's staying with me)

Basically the energy of the planet is turned more inward. Like take the Merc retro....you'll have trouble communicating when normally you've never had issues etc. Vice versa for people who have retros natally....they seem to finally be able to express the energy of the planet outwardly.
No...not really besides a little help from the Leo Merc retro...I've been a little more roary (is that a word? Lol) than normal...but I suffer with the retro natally...so it's basically my time to get all my shit off my chest lol.
Look at your transits and see what planet is hitting what. I find Astro seek a little easier to use because it gives the actual transit instead of you trying to figure it out from the aspect chart...then you can Google the meaning.click to expand

oo awesome. Thank you for that. Im exactly feeling like that...opposite of how i am normally. Is this how water sign or water sign people feel? For example having deep emotions but being comfortable about , able to express it, and be at peace with it. Normally when i have deep emotions it makes me feel uncomfortable and in a state of despair like i need answers asap. But now I'm just having these emotions and chilling with them.
Roary lol... yes great word. I don't have any Leo placements (except Lilith) but sag mars definitely makes me roary ...and so quickly and in a flash (come and go quick).
Retro natally means you have a hard time expressing yourself?click to expand

Retro natally means you have a hard time expressing yourself?
Yeah, depending on the water sign. Scorps would not...not that's it's uncomfortable but for vulnerability reasons and someone using it against them. Pisces and cancers have a easier time. It is a nice change of pace though...being able to express the emotions and be good with it. Now that you say that...I've actually had an easier time expressing mine (which I don't do...like ever)..but I thinks it's the person for me at least...just a comfortablity factor than transit but idk.
Haha...yeah, a fire Mars will def do that. I personally dig my leo mars energy...I don't think other people do though 😂
Yeah, you have a hard time displaying or expressing the energy of that planet. More challenging. I also have Venus retro and that one sucks more than the Merc...meh, actually they both suck 😂click to expand

Are you laughing at us suffering—
no gem. it's just amusing cuz y'all acting like a chicken with it's head cut off when it really isn't that big of a deal. tbh retrograde stuff is really easy as it's inward. instead of externalizing everything the way you always do the answers really are within you. i can explain retrogrades to you for hours. and it won't help. the stuff that's going on internally needs to be dealt with. and you're the only one hearing those thoughts. listen to the voice within and it genuinely will tell you what you need to know.click to expand

Yeah but you are used to that energy as it comes naturally to you but a lot of people struggle with having to face their inward self....it feels uncomfortable but needed to learn and grow.
i get it. most people experience things externally so it doesn't feel intuitive i guess to reflect. the only planet i have that isn't retrograde that could be is venus. abbynormal has the same retrogrades i do. for me i have a hard time handling relationship stuff by myself and spend a lot of time talking to friends. but with most other friends that aren't relationships i just go inward and go from there. it feels natural to me.
though tbh it seems like having a lot of direct planets would be a pain in the ass if you're trying to do serious internal work on yourself idk.click to expand

It's def a blessing and a curse. Sometimes too much self reflection isn't good either like with all things. I'd probably be more promiscuous if my Leo Venus wasn't rx. Give me a compliment and my pants would be on the floor 😂😂 jk
lmao i've always wondered about rx venus. tbh i don't need any more retrogrades as i have almost the whole set. but that one seems the strangest to me. what is it like being in a relationship with venus rx? maybe i should make a thread for that. if anyone else posting in this one expresses interest in that i will.click to expand

It's frustrating I'm sure. I know it is for me.
I tend to self sabotage my relationships even when I don't want too...it's like a reflex. Always thinking I'm not good enough or some other insecurity (of course this is all internalized except the self sabotage). When I love...it's deep but hard for me to show my feelings. So most guys tend to think I don't like them in that way. Like I can do little things but the bigger stuff...I'm always afraid of the rejection aspect...so I tend to nix an idea or hold off unless the other person tells or shows me first. I take relationships very seriously though...that's if I can get into one 😂😂.
for me with my one whole direct planet it's different. i am so vocal and open with how i feel, good or bad, that you never have to guess where you're at with me. then again i'm also a taurus and you're a virgo so that plays into it as well. i can understand why you'd be frustrated with that though. i know if i woke up like that one day i'd be really hard pressed to deal with it. also i have to say i fangirl leo venus and that is not something that will change. lmao.click to expand

That's so terrifying but also seems so much easier to be that way. I've noticed though...I've been forced more to be like that the past couple of months. I was dating a leo and he seemed to get it out of me some how...not by words or anything just something about him made me want to just jump...it was still hard to do and I was very hesitant but it came out. To bad he fucked it all up but that's beside the point. I guess if I really click with someone ...it's possible to be more open and vocal...just a struggle to do so. Haha...I don't blame you...we are pretty great 😜
if that's the case it's really good you met him, not because of how it ended, but because of the journey to get to that ending. being open can be difficult if you're not used to it but being able to vocalize shit to the person you're with is extremely rewarding. hopefully the next guy gets the benefits of that too and DOESN'T fuck it up. lol. yes. all my favorite virgos on dxp have leo venus. you, sancho, sunsetvirgo. probably more i'm forgetting. lol.click to expand
