VENUS began its transit through the sympathetic, emotional sign of Pisces on Thursday, January 2nd, at 10:24 PM EST ... Venus is now in a "relationship" with Neptune, the natural ruling planet of Pisces, so there is the potential for love to be produced from some highly spiritual as well as karmic energy in ones life ... Venus was last in Pisces from March 11th through April 5th, 2024 !!!
Venus in Pisces is all about dreams and wishes, fairy tale endings, love at first sight, and happily ever after - well maybe !!! ... Venus is exalted in Pisces - a planet that is exalted in a sign expresses its energy more harmoniously and visibly through having its forces increased as well as its virtues magnified - especially in this case since Pisces ruler Neptune is considered to be the higher vibrational octave of Venus !!!
Venus in Pisces enjoys being compassionate, tenderhearted and helpful ... often one relates to others by taking the role of either the rescuer or a person looking for help ... affection is usually expressed idealistically, romantically, sympathetically, or sometimes evasively ... there is a deep desire for magic and romance in love ... one of the obstacles here can be a lack of clarity about what you want or a failure to be objective in regards to others which can ultimately set you up for disappointment, disillusionment, or possibly deception ... this energy needs not only love but an emotional connection as well otherwise it makes one feel very lost ... another caveat is to not become one who is afraid and holds back from expressing ones feelings and thus end up suffering in silence !!!
It is very easy under this energy to idealize love and loved ones ... one must guard against putting people and love on the proverbial "pedestal" because when reality sinks in the results can often be devastating ... sometimes a lack of discrimination can lead to highly frustrating attachments ... in this energy, one often wants a beautiful dream in their love relationships, yearns for a true soul mate, or can be psychically attuned to ones partner ... since Pisces is a water sign, Venus traveling here is especially subject to the emotions being a large part of the drive - even more so than usual !!!
Venus in Pisces can give great sensitivity to hurt that makes one feel as though they are being picked on ... one must guard against clinging to illusory loves just because they are far more beautiful than real life ... and this could ultimately prevent one from finding true closeness with another ... bottom line - this Venus wants to experience the perfect, unselfish love !!! ... tastes are frequently very refined here ... music is usually a natural means of self-expression as well as art !!!
Venus in Pisces is all about learning to love through accepting - it's the love of all ... in fact, LOVE IS ALL ... this energy sees the Eternal Life principle flowing through every manifestation and therefore uniting the soul with all of life ... it is said that this placement of Venus most likely has more innate ability for inspired artistic creativity than any other ... also at heart one knows and feels that love is everything - everything is regarded as being alive and sacred ... Venus in Pisces can yield a highly spiritually influenced type of love !!!
Venus in Pisces can yield an extremely complex love nature ... this is due to having a highly evolved sense of love as unconditional and of beauty as a healing property, but on the other hand the fears and doubts that can accompany this energy can make one inclined to see love as something one "needs" and beauty as something to "get" or to "own" ... the truth here is that each one of us is a creation of love and beauty, but if one begins to doubt this, then one can open them self up to being used and abused ... and in the end, it comes down to the fact that you can only love the world and those in it as much as you love yourself as a part of the world !!! ... the energy of Venus in Pisces can express itself in the following ways :
POSITIVE: compassionate, sympathetic, appreciates unity of all life, congenial, evocative, sensitive lover, easygoing, artistically inspired, natural healer, self-sacrificing, selfless, highly affectionate, altruistic, very generous, loves unconditionally, gentle, philanthropic, peaceful
NEGATIVE: martyr, too sentimental, too passive, seducing, idealizes lover, romantically deluding, hypersensitive, self-pitying, weak-willed, wanton, no self-value, non discerning, fears rejection, indulging, evasive, overly impressionable
Pisces born individuals, this is the time when Venus shines its beautiful "love light" upon you ... it is usually a good time to ask for what you want as you have the potential to be pretty much irresistible unless of course your natal energy dictates otherwise !!!
For everyone, it's time to keep "carefully" searching for the perfect "ahhhh" and seeking love with all the trimmings ... it may just be waiting - all for YOU !!!
Venus now joins the Saturn and Neptune in this dreamy, trance like swim through the emotional "waters" of Pisces ... romance and relationships, as well as finances potentially, could be thrown into very murky "waters" and even more so than normal !!! ... Venus remains in Pisces until February 3rd/4th depending on which time zone in which you live ... BUT ... !!!

HEADS UP !!! ... although Venus will complete its initial transit through Pisces, it will actually not be through with Pisces until April 30th !!! ... once Venus enters Aries, it will get no further than 10 degrees 50 minutes Aries when it begins its next retrograde journey, a dual sign retrograde, which will occur from March 1st through April 12th going from 10 degrees 50 minutes Aries back to 24 degrees 37 minutes Pisces ... Venus returns to Pisces on March 27th to conclude the retrograde period and once direct, Venus will move forward to exit Pisces on April 30th ... AND keep in mind that the first Mercury retrograde period of 2025 which occurs from March 14th/15th through April 7th another dual sign retrograde going from 9 degrees 35 minutes Aries back to 26 degrees 49 minutes Pisces making it completely embedded in the Venus retrograde ... as you can see it will be transiting in the same "neighborhood" as the Venus retrograde as well ... Venus will enter its shadow point on January 31st !!!
As Venus transits Pisces, back and forth, the ultimate question here becomes will the love you find truly be what you wanted and did you "see" it for what it truly was instead of being blinded by the emotions of love and romance looking through the proverbial rose-colored glasses ??? ... best to tread the emotional "waters" of love and romance carefully and cautiously under this Venusian transit !!!
