Venus trine retragrade Mars. (January 25 - February 6, 2025)

On January 25, Venus in Pisces will align with Mars retrograde in Cancer, sparking intense emotions and potentially rekindling past romantic connections.

The major tune of Venus in Pisces creates a dreamy, fairytale-like energy that makes us believe in the possibility of a perfect, happily-ever-after ending, like a character in a Nora Ephron film. With our hearts open and full of compassion, we tend to trust others more and overlook their imperfections. However, the downside is that we may ignore warning signs and give people the benefit of the doubt when they don’t truly deserve it

Venus in Pisces symbolizes the unusual degree of selfishness in love. At that time you can be called by your old friend or love partner for some help otherwise you may need help by yourself. At this time some of us may start getting involved in charitable activities such as working with underprivileged people in hospitals or similar institutions. 

This is a time when you feel a need to take care about others and don't get immediate gratification back. Maybe it's a time to give some of your emotional love to others without being praised . 

Mars in cancer, especially like now retrograde brings into our life feeling to be blocked, as if it's difficult to spark our desires or make progress. Moving things forward requires more effort than usual, and we may not have the motivation to push through. It's important to recognize when it's time to take a step back and slow down, as pushing things too hard or putting too much energy into them can make things worse.

Mars in Cancer often expresses anger in more passive-aggressive ways, like muttering under their breath, slamming drawers, stomping around, or using closed-off body language. Those with this placement can become resentful and are likely to hold onto grudges if they feel wronged.

Having said that we should remember that both planets are connected to human physical and sexual activities and any relationship which started on these days is not vivid without sexual activities. But keep in mind that retrograde Mars can refresh your memory about your previous relationship which may bring some bitterness of comparison between your former and recent partner.. 

For artists and creative people this transit can feel extremely stimulating but yet not give enough creative inspiration,  but it does give an energy actually do creative work and finish the stuff which needs to be done for a long time.

Some people can experience some financial difficulties with their debts or unpaid bills from the past. 

Feeling losing balance in life under the influence of this transit, you may feel your life is not as stable as you have been thinking so it's a good idea to get rest and spend some time outdoors enjoying the beauty of the world around you.   After February 6th this aspect will lose its influence on you and the feeling of relief and your confidence in future will be back.
