What Is a Venus Retrograde?
Because the planets move in an elliptical orbit, there are times when Earth is closer or farther away from the other planets. When they are farther away they can “appear” to be moving backwards. That’s when the retrograde transit happens.
Ss it really going backwards? Nope! No planet moves backwards, but when a planet is retrograde it appears to be traveling away from us here on Earth. With the planet farther away, the energy of it is felt less here on Earth.
