APRIL AND MAY SW PDF FILES NOW AVAILABLE TO ALL MEMBERS
11 March 09The value of things – and of people – is distorted when Venus is backing up on the bases.
So, this is considered a very poor time to decide to be married or divorced – our emotions are uneven, out of character, and not always reliable – better to wait until after this 40+ day period ends to make major decisions in relationships. Wait. Don’t move in or out.
In existing partnerships, new ideas and challenges can pop up unexpectedly. And typically, it takes a few weeks or more to work through to understanding – be patient and you will discover a new source of strength in your partner as conflicts transform into understanding.
BENEFITS: Venus rules your art. This is the time to go back and finish projects that you have started in the past. A painting. A garden wall. A scrapbook. Improvements are certain. Hold off on making cosmetic changes. Shop and check out new styles but wait until Venus resumes forward motion to make the final decision. Go over your expenses and budget – you can plug a small financial leak in this Rx cycle, and organize finances so you will be more efficient in the future. Incredible bargains of all kinds are to be found in this Rx cycle, too. As many people will undervalue the worth of goods they have, or have inaccurate appraisals. “Antiques Roadshow” is bound to have some interesting and valuable items brought in during Venus Rx.
this venus retrograde stuff is rough. i only have a couple of relationships that aren’t falling apart or full of impatience and contention or downright nastiness.
venus retrograde feels like Pluto the Hammer (that’s how pluto feels to me, smash things to change them)
whew can’t wait for this time to change!
— tremolo Mar 13, 12:06 AM #Lance my best friend is a Taurus and he asked me to marry him last week. I know we will be waiting to tie the knot but is this also not the right time to say yes?
— karen Mar 16, 06:08 AM #it’s not the time if you don’t really know who you are marrying…
like a quickie to Vegas…no, no, no…
best friend?
the person is…known a long time?
really, really know who
tell him to ask you again on April 18…just in case you don’t really know…
— Lance Ferguson Mar 16, 09:46 AM #I have known him for 3 years and no there is no quickie to Vegas due to finances lol. Thank you for your reply Lance.

— henri Mar 17, 05:39 AM #Hi Lance, For some reason I didn’t receive my monthly skywatch last month and I am missing reading your forecasts tremendously. I know that I paid for a yr. in December. Thank you. Sincerely, Dawn
— Dawn Mar 18, 12:13 PM #sorry, Dawn…my fault…new copies are in the mail.
— Lance Ferguson Mar 18, 05:07 PM #Lance, How much do you charge for a yearly astrological forecast?
— Sue Mullen Mar 23, 12:30 PM #Sue Mullen (friend with Evon, Lewin’s Bookstore, Berkeley)
I do all readings on cassette tapes and send to my clients…
an hour tape…which lets me talk about 8-12 months of time in your life is $200.
— Lance Ferguson Mar 23, 04:24 PM #Almost got a new cell phone today with a two year agreement; then remembered Venus retrograde and decided it could wait till after we get that out of the way….Thank you, Lance!
— Lori Mar 29, 11:57 PM #yes, yes, yes….
wait…you’ll get a better deal…or know more what you really want…
if you will wait until after April 17…when Venus turns direct.
— Lance Ferguson Mar 30, 07:39 PM #lance i just read your note at the top of the April SW.

— tremolo Apr 1, 08:49 AM #Hi Lance, I haven’t received my monthly Skywatch for April and am already missing it!!

”...our emotions are uneven, out of character, and not always reliable – better to wait until after this 40+ day period ends to make major decisions in relationships. Wait. Don’t move in or out.”
Man, that about hits it on the head.
— Dutch Apr 2, 03:44 PM #During this retrograde I’ve had two situations now where we had to go back and reconsider decisions we’ve made in a project at work…no surprises there. During this time I’ve tried to be extra careful every time we want to put a new idea into play, and still I can’t seem to outwit the fates :) I’m gonna quit while I’m ahead!
— Abigail Apr 10, 08:54 AM #Boyfriend and I had a falling out 10 days ago on March 31st. Haven’t talked since, haven’t broken up either. Still have stuff at each others places. Don’t know what to do?
Help!
— Susan Apr 10, 11:02 AM #Susan – Remember it is still Venus Retrograde, which is the perfect “falling out” astrology. Let Venus go direct on the 17th when you will be in a better position to really see what is going on in your relationship. Good luck.

— sam Apr 14, 12:10 PM #Some astrologers talk about a “shadow period,” of the retrograde cycle. In the case of our current Venus RX, I understand the shadow period to be the time between when Venus turns direct on April 17 and the time when she returns to 16Aries where she was when the RX period started. Some apparently feel the “Shadow Period” also carries heavy significance. Would you care to comment on this?
sam
heavy significance?
not really…more like things unwind during the shadow period…
you’ll see for yourself…there may be some small incident at the end of the shadow period that smacks of Venus Rx…but that’s about it.
Venus will pass her shadow point on May 20.
