How Venus Retrograde in Scorpio Will Break Old Cycles

Astrologer Christopher Renstrom explains Venus turning retrograde in Scorpio on October 3rd, and its significant pivot back into Libra on October 25th. He highlights the retrograde's themes of ordeal, betrayal, and transformation by exploring the Greek tragedy of Clytemnestra, Orestes, and the Furies. Using this myth, he traces the journey of Venus from vengeful outrage to impartial justice and the rule of law, showing how our deepest emotional wounds can ultimately become protective, compassionate authority. He then gives sign-by-sign guidance (including Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces), noting key themes such as descending into the underworld to stand by a troubled loved one instead of powering through their weakness for Aries, giving a partner the necessary grace and space to figure themselves out during a period of separation for Taurus, amending brusque behaviors to heal growing resentment in work or service relationships for Gemini, channeling heartbreak into a creative outlet to experience the restorative miracle of tears for Cancer, redefining what home means and returning to a place of sanctuary rather than a place of past wounds for Leo, allowing a dynamic with a mother figure or older sibling to evolve into an equal partnership for Virgo, stepping into the role of Athena to objectively resolve power struggles over shared finances for Libra, transmuting the fury of past betrayals into becoming a wise guardian of love for Scorpio, laying generational trauma and family skeletons to rest through profound compassion for Sagittarius, overcoming the fear of scarcity to step into a position of true benevolence and empowerment for Capricorn, establishing a new precedent to end cycles of conflict and serve the greater good for Aquarius, and achieving ultimate liberation from endless cycles of grief to live free of the past for Pisces. 00:00 Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 02:25 The Myth of Helen and Clytemnestra 38:30 Aries 50:23 Taurus 59:20 Gemini 01:08:09 Cancer 01:15:53 Leo 01:23:42 Virgo 01:32:26 Libra 01:41:43 Scorpio 01:51:46 Sagittarius 02:00:14 Capricorn 02:07:36 Aquarius 02:17:11 Pisces Join Christopher Renstrom's Astrology Salon:    / @christopherrenstromastro   Check out Christopher's Website Ruling Planets: https://rulingplanets.com/ Book a Reading with Christopher: https://rulingplanets.com/shop/readin...
