Venus Goes Direct in Pisces

April 13, 2025

Venus has finished the last leg of her retro tour and is now moving direct in the health and work sector in the sign of Pisces. While she sits in the house of duty and service, you’ll sublimate your desires in favor of more practical concerns. Despite moving through the dream world of Pisces, the focus is on the real world rather than fantasy.

If you’ve learned the lessons of tact and diplomacy Venus offered during retrograde, her forward movement encourages a willingness to work with others to resolve difficulties that may arise. It’s possible that you’ll conflict with authority figures (bosses, parents, government officials) because of an overwhelming workload or unreasonable demands, or you may have issues with coworkers. People and upsetting situations can trigger emotional outbursts, but unless you have something real at stake, you should examine your responses and attempt to align your interests to advance your efforts. In fact, depending on your negotiating skills, you can make financial gains or receive favors from an employer.

If you hold a position of authority, you’ll look for ways to keep your employees happy while motivating them at the same time. Motivated by strong ambitions, you recognize that you have to work harder to get ahead, whether because of competitors or to achieve a personal goal, especially if you’re functioning independently due to life-changing circumstances—separation, divorce, change of residence, or a change in your financial conditions. This is the right time to focus on the present as well as future-oriented objectives. To that end, you may be working on commission, targeting new clients, or starting a business. For some, educational opportunities or travel provide the means for expansion.

With a stellium of energy running through matters of health, the utmost attention should be directed toward this area of life. You may be more interested in learning about health in the realization that changes are necessary. Perhaps you’re dealing with weight gain, alcoholism, skin problems, or issues related to the reproductive system. You need to be especially careful as illness, disease, and their origins could be difficult to diagnose. For some, this manifests as fatigue, allergies, and sensitivities, and emotional upheaval and stress may affect you and exacerbate any existing illness. The consequences of long-term abuse, chronic problems, work-related stress, and dietary deficiencies will push for reassessment. If you develop a strategy that focuses on diet and exercise, you may experience beneficial changes or improvements.

If your natal Venus is in Pisces, you’re due for a Venus Return.
