Venus Retrograde soon, revisit past relationships

Hey all, venus is going retrograde soon, which only happens every couple of years. I think its supposed to begin retro on 15th may - but with all retro's there is a shadow period beforehand, so as far as I know you can begin to feel the effects for a few weeks before and post a retro period. Anyone noticing any revisits of past relationships? I AM!!!

Last week 2 ex's communicated with me - one (the Libra) was good for me to hear from because i got to tell him what I thought of him 🙂 and got to square off that relationship and put it to bed, and he is now fully aware that NO WE CANNOT BE FRIENDS. The other is a long story and not worth going into but at least we are both aware that this is completly over (well it was for me not for him maybe but now it is) because of the circumstances that brought about the communication. He, hopefully, can finally move on.

Now to last night, heard from an ex - the Virgo (my love) - I maintain he is my soulmate, you know the one you can't be with but will love forever. We had the most lovely conversation for nearly an hour, good to hear he is doing so well and also good to hear that we still love each other, but both of us are "ok" with loving but not being together and know now that we have each other for life, the heavy emotion has been lifted for both of us and we are left with a very contented and happy communication with each other. Its like we have settled into our link to each other.

Now just waiting for the Aries ha ha ha - never going to happen, not even the number 8 can make that one manifest itself 🙂

Any experiences yet?

I do not have any exes---* feeling deprived *

or is this retrograde likely to turn my first and present one into an ex ?----serious question--

well relationships are tested during the venus retrograde, and saturn in also in Libra (the sign of relationships). Issues should come to a head - everything alright Shahbano?

Relationships doesn't just mean romantic relationships btw.

If the scorpio ex were to call me, Id take a massive shit the size of California,,and tell him exactly what I think of him.

One can hope I get that opportunity.

hmmm, yes, everything as usual,

don't have any other relationships as well, just a father---and there nothing can ever go bad--

how long this retrograde is likely to stay ?

Its retrograde until June 27 - so plenty of time to address issues that come up. Its retrograde in Gemini I think so this should mean (as far as I can work out) that there will be communication involved, as Gemini is ruled by mercury the planet of communication.

Shahbano, have you any friends or other family - you sound very lonely.

well, as you know, thanks to magic 8, i am being revisited by the leo. i'm not ready to deal with it though and apparently this venus retro encourages us to move slowly in these circumstances....so that's what i'm doing.

i swing between wanting to pour out some venom and wanting to throw myself at his feet and so, i'll be doing nothing until i sort my head out.

Did your knobhead call again, Rig ?

CelticLioness

No, not many,
but I am alright with it, well--

some interesting observations in the past week:

not sure how it affects but my first boyfriend Aries broke up with his current girlfriend a Virgo. We haven't spoken.

My second, cap, asked me to meet him for a meal tomorrow.

My third, leo called me and asked if I'd like to hang out.

Yes. Something weird is definitely going on!

HAPPY FOR YOU! 😄

and with regards to the aries - this is for the both of us - STAY OUT OF OUR LIVES !

no not yet but i'm sure he will. to be honest, i can't even summon the feeling to call him a knobhead right now...i just don't want to think about him at all...too confusing. i've turned down two hot dates due to lack of interest on my part. sometimes, a revisit is the last thing you need 😢

CL....especially when they're aries!!

The first person I fell in love with - a Sagittarius - informed me about 4 nights ago that that he was going to an army recruit the next day. We Skyped for conversational purposes (we both hate maintaining communication via text. I'm actually even surprised I even post on a forum). The video call lasted for about an hour and a half.

Within that period of time he:
- shared with me that 'I'm naive for getting married' and that I'll 'never be happy'
- stated that 'I won't have a fulfilling sex life' and that 'experimenting with others together as a couple always ends in failure'
- told me his current girlfriend is a virgin and is waiting until she's ready for sex (so he's breaking up with her before leaving so he can get laid)
- told me that the only thing he wants before he leaves is to 'hold me one last time' and to 'make love to me'.

LOL THAT'S *ALL* I NEEDED TO BLOCK HIM FROM EVERY METHOD OF COMMUNICATION HE COULD POSSIBLY USE. Freaking loser!! And OF COURSE you want to touch me again, but sweetheart - you couldn't keep something this womanly and feisty inside of your 'little black book'. I'm 10 x the woman he could handle - inside AND outside of bed 🙂

This retrograde is already toying with me! But to be honest - I NEEDED to see how much of a loser this guy was to be 100% OVER him.

I hope Seraph reads this; I already know that Lion will be proudly smirking. 😉 🙂

ps: Thank you Seraph. You've helped me with this. 🙂

sigh, another revisit from my past - the young blood appeared on the scene again last night, still professing he wants to take me out - now its not an ex obviously but still someone from the (recent)past. I told him my age, he's not fazed. I'm actually quite enjoying this venus retrograde, can't wait to see what happens when it kicks in properly 🙂

I got a call from the nude taurus after 10 days of ignoring me. Not an ex, more like a *never was*. I am letting him go, but its nice to know the venus retrograde may have caused his call. Would love for it to make my wish come true and make the scorpio call. I am dying to say all that I have inside.

Eh honestly...I don't think it's a retrograde thing. I've been reading the magic 8 post.

(yes I made a wish too; but I made a very very geeky wish that has nothing to do with love lol).

I noticed when some leos made wishes for the ex to contact them, not only did the ex contact them but a string of exes. This board kind of confirms that too.

Additionally, the exes want said leo back/or "one more chance".

Maybe it's just a leo thing lol.

After all we're the Bill Clintons and Lucille Ball -s of the zodiac...even when we butter up...who can't warm back up to the delightful rays of our charisma?

sheathed: that sag sounds like a psycho sag i had an 'experience' with earlier this year. is it something about their 'love style ' that makes them grind your confidence down to their level i wonder? i blocked the sag from all forms of communication AND had him arrested.

bgp: nekked boy doesn't count, lol.

I never wished for anything, SL. And this was *THE ex*. I honestly believe it's the retrograde.

The best part is that he went completely downhill after we first broke up, and after every time he's tried to pull one over on me. He actually told me the other day that he's seeing the recruiter because all he does is hang out with his Walmart coworkers (which makes up the majority of his friends) and get high together.

What a loser!! Agh, I feel so revitalized from purging that negative sob from my life!!!!'

@R1g: I do believe that the immature (or doomed to eternal child-dom lol) Sags are like that. I think each sign is full of a form of sin - not every person portrays that, but I believe if one becomes 'comfortable' in their default ways and doesmt strive, they are likely to fall into their Sign's sin. For Leos, yes yes - it's typically pride or gluttony (not gastric - just the live for everything in excess and true wonton). For Sags... lust and gluttony, with a touch of jealousy in nostalgic purposes. Theyre the ultimate 'horse in the china closet'.

I think when an immature Sag realizes their mistakes, they have no idea how to handle it.

Woo police did something beneficial for once! 😛

well, the police were very helpful...guardia civil don't like foreigners as it is but ones that threaten women and children? the only problem now is the judicial system here. it's on my side (in this case) in the sense that the onus is on him to prove his innocence (which he can't with all the evidence i had)...but this case could take at least 2 years before going to court, during which time the sag will have moved on to another province no doubt.

my first instinct was to have some friends of mine pay him a visit and nail his bollocks to the floor and i kinda wish i stuck with that option.

the weeks that led to me denouncing him were evidence of his 'immaturity' despite his age (40s)...swinging between threats and desparate proclamations by email...i think i love you...you're a piece of shit...he was totally out of control.

and the spark that lit the fuse was when i said 'no' to him.

some men just don't take rejection very well, lol.

Oh geesh, r1g, I think that this sag may be the spawn of your sag!

I'm going to allow my self assurance work in my favor, for I have a very strong feeling that he shall make an 'unexpected' personal appearance within the next few weeks. And the thing that I have in strength is my fire, for it is stronger and with even endurance, unlike his own spurts of 'power' and 'stamina' (let's consider that to be of double meaning, shall we?). Laughably, he always ends up attempting to crawl back to me - being the only *woman* he's dated (i.e., not a 'girl'). I'll make sure that this time when I go to step over him in fitting fashion, I'll make sure to wear heels and step right on his hands so that little bug can no longer crawl back again.

Excuse the power trip of this post. I'm feeling quite womanly a la femme fatale this evening 🙂 and hell, I'll be boastful and admit it's quite suited as well!

a cancer just called me friday night trying to make up

sheath & R1g0r; Sags ::facepalm:: for some reason can't stand em (men that is). maybe it's a trend. I was really good friends with one that was "madly" inlove with me...and like 5 other of my friends. All of a sudden his ex (baby's mother) is calling me at 1 in the morning yelling and accusing me of sleeping with him. It was amusing. Should have been there to see the O_o ? huh? wtf look on my face.

::back track::

POLICE— O_O



Weird observation; I've noticed, at least with the Sags I know, that they're in love with everyone.

@libnocole 84; Libra & Cancer, ouch, I heard that's a butt of the heads there, but there's a lot of attraction too.

((if you see anything negative *hint sag men* don't mind me, I tend to dislike most signs when it comes to men. lol)

welll pppppppppppppppppppppppfffffttt I guess y'all are getting affected by the retrograde and not me, girls ::flips hair::, ::snaps fingers: Only exes professing love are the same exes that I've been avoiding for the past year. Blah. This very hot Indian guy asked me for my number when I was walking home from work....I wish I had time to date....:::mind wanders::: By the way Riggie and Sheathie you are both very pretty women...no wonder you've got police involved...-_- ENNNNVVVYYYYY. lol Quee jodddeerrr!! >_

I havent posted on the Leo forum before, so hello all, even tho I've seen most of you elsewhere. This is really interesting as my sons father, a pisces, who I was involved with in the past is returning home on leave for a month and will be here the entire time Venus is in retro. Gee wiiiz

I guess this will be a good test for setting up boundaries and giving my current guy the extra reassurance and attention to show that he is the only person I've got my eye in these potentially uncomfortable circumstances.

Eeek.

Unless him and I will have issues due to this as well. Double eek.

SL: yeah police! after i denounced him, people at work were coming to me and saying he had a reputation for stalking women...i was like 'thanks for telling me after the event, lol' and they said they didn't feel it was their place to say anything when i was first talking to him so i told them to consider it their place in future, lol....could've saved myself a whole lot of aggrovation. it seems like you just have to say hi to a sag man and they think they own you. the speed at which he reached psychosis was startling.

i like sag men as friends and have a couple but it's not been without incident as they tend to fly off the handle over the most ridiculous things and are quick to get personal and nasty.

I hope I don't think about going back to my ex...though, since we've broken up, he's been trying to get us back together. No other ex problems! Some interesting meetings and events, though. And I am rethinking the Aqua I previously said no to. Does that count? He's so persistent. Man, I need to go hibernate for a while so I won't make any stupid decisions.

It's all very weird, and the whole retro hasn't even started yet! Strangely enough I spent yesterday, my wedding anniversary, with my ex - now I'd never have imagined that would happen!

CL: good that you get on though 🙂

i found this:

Venus is in retrograde for approximately every eighteen months and will be in retrograde for about forty days.

This year we will have a retrograde period in the sign of Gemini. This will deal with our romantic lives and our values. On the down side, it can bemore of a distorted perspective and attitude.

It is a time when you will start to analysis your personal life and relationships that you have. evaluate the reason why others are in your life and what value do they really have for you. You are aware of these issues, difference or unresolved problems with others. Wait till Venus goes direct if you are planning to let go people from your life. This will give you more understanding of what is and has been going on and your role in the relationship. But you must also realize that in any relationships there will always be differences. They question is how much do you want to tolerate and what is actually depleting or negative to your well being as a whole.

In some cases if a relationship has difficulties, things can work themselves out for the best. During this retrograde we find people feeling more unloved, unappreciated and disappointed. Remember it is almost like the opposite of what the planet has to offer. People will feel that they need to get more out a relationship. This makes it a great time to mend relationships and apologize when needed in relationships.

During this retrograde period, it is advised not to get married or start new relationships. The reason is, they will not last.

Also, not a good time to make any major financial decisions.

Any type of cosmetic work done should be postponed until after this time.

Watch out for splurging on things that will be a substitute for the need to feel loved. It can be costly to you on some level.

Do not purchase pricey or luxury items during this time. What looks good will not looks good later. In addition, financially there will be a downfall with it. Venus retrograde is an excellent time for buying antiques, flea market items and secondhand goods wherein you know the real worth and value of the item but the seller do not. Therefore, the key here is, if you know you are getting a bargain before retrograde, try to haggle the price during retrograde and you might just get an awesome deal.

so basically, the knobhead is finally going to finish with his 'ex' and he will be mine 😄

it's always best to have zero expectation, LOL!!!

Oh rig, we don't get on at all, can't bare to be around him. Our son is in hospital so we were forced to be in each others presence. Fecking Venus 🙂

It's acceptable 🙂. He's epileptic and had a seizure. Hopefully going home today, I'm tired of hospital floors, thank god for smartphones!!

OMG!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK DID IT SAY——?

sorry to hear about your son btw. hope he's on the mend.

it sucks when you don't get on with your kids fathers (i don't either) but at least you usually manage to pull together in times of crisis...especially when it involves your kids 🙂

now spill with the aries!!!

i think with him...cos you have been utterly convinced he wouldn't contact you...you have removed all expectation and so that's why he's suddenly popped up again 🙂

and yes....the knobhead scenario...i want it very much and have a very strong feeling this is what is going on with him right now too. i don't think he is a kh in truth, i think he was trying to do the right thing and i wound up getting hurt in the process. still some unforgiveable behaviour involved but since he got in touch, i can understand things better for what they were.

My little crab is home and tucked up in his bed - close one, but he's here and that's all that matters 🙂 Thanks guys x

yes but what did the aries say—? c'mon CL...i can't concentrate on Britain's got Talent cos i'm waiting on the information!!!

Lol, it was one of those "mistake" texts - sent on purpose, knew it was when I read the context of it, but he then went on with full(not like him)fake explanation of sending it to me - playing on the words he used to get a bit sexy, which I totally ignored, he also asked how my weekend was (soooo not like him) and when I told him I was in the hospital he sorried it up and I just said thanks and left it at that. I know he's on the hunt now, and as I have arrived at a place of strength where he is concerned, i'm not concerned, not that I don't want it, but i'm fully aware of his moves now and know how to "play" this - added to that, this is the first time he has initiated contact with me. So i'm happy but very relaxed about it.

Strangely enough at 11.11 that day I picked up my phone and that was the time displayed on it - I then logged onto a website we both use and he was online - at 11.11. It was 8 days since my wish ended and I received the text - hmmmmm.

hahah!!! yeah...we told you sooooo...ner,ner,ner,ner, NERRRRRR!

so you had an exchange with him. funny really...i got the leo's message when i'd finally reached a position of strength..perhaps that's the key...perhaps they can smell it.

what i like is that it puts the ball back in our court. i'm gonna be kicking it around and doing some tricks before shooting for goal, lol.

ok. back to BGT cos i LOVE the cowelster, high rise trousers or not 😛 met his brother in marbella a couple of years ago. not the same at all although he clearly enjoys basking in his bro's fame, lol.

and I also have no expectations, despite his contact - its such a relief 🙂

Took me ages to work out what BGT was! I don't watch television but am aware of the shows, when i worked out who cowelster was i related to your previous thread where i was distracting you from said show! I do like Simon myself.

It will be interesting to see where our stories take us rig - together 🙂

Rig--

Do you still like your ( former) KH ?--do you find it in your heart to forgive him eventually ?

( genuine question--nothing double-edged about it )
