We get to revisit the things that we learned during Venus retrograde and show mastery of these life lessons.

This week, each zodiac sign's life will transform when Venus returns to Aries the week of April 28 - May 4, 2025. Venus will enter Aries once again on the 30th, bringing more confidence to our communication. The Gemini Moon on the 29th makes our communications more charming and playful; our writing and speech become engaging. May begins with the Cancer Moon on the 1st, followed by the Leo Moon on the 3rd. Everyone can feel the benefits and thrill of the Venus transit once the Moon in Leo connects with the planet of love.
Pluto will be stationing retrograde on the 4th, adding more intensity to this Taurus season. With both planets battling it out, this is a good moment for us to practice patience in the areas of our chart where this energy will be concentrated. Nevertheless, with hard work and patience, we will be able to accomplish a lot as long as we don’t lose sight of our goal.
