- Rushing into New Relationships
One common mistake to avoid is rushing into new relationships during this period. Venus retrograde often brings to the surface unresolved issues from the past. Jumping into a new partnership without addressing these can lead to complications down the road. Instead, use this time to reflect on your past relationships and learn from your experiences. It’s a period for inner growth rather than starting something new. - Making Impulsive Financial Decisions
Venus also rules over material wealth and finances. It’s advised to avoid making impulsive purchases or major financial decisions during Venus Retrograde. Your judgment regarding investments and expenses might not be as clear as usual. Instead, focus on reviewing your financial plans, budgeting, and researching investments. - Neglecting Self-Care
Venus Combustion can bring about feelings of self-doubt, low self-esteem, and a lack of appreciation for oneself. It’s crucial to avoid neglecting self-care during this time. Engage in activities that boost your self-confidence and self-worth. - Miscommunication in Relationships
Venus combustion can also affect relationships, leading to misunderstandings and miscommunication. When Venus is too close to the Sun, our ability to express love and appreciation may be overshadowed by ego-driven communication. To avoid unnecessary conflicts, be mindful of your words and tone when interacting with loved ones. - Drastically Changing Your Appearance
Venus is closely associated with beauty and aesthetics, and its combustion phase may cause you to feel dissatisfied with your appearance. However, making drastic changes to your appearance, such as getting a dramatic haircut or undergoing cosmetic procedures, might not lead to the desired outcome. Engage in activities that make you feel confident and take care of your body through healthy habits. Remember that true beauty radiates from within.
