• SAGITTARIUS RISING, be VERY careful about reconnecting with secret lovers or friends who secretly compete with you. With Venus moving through your 12H & 11H, old relationship patterns & friendship drama could resurface.
That's because Venus Retrograde is activating TWO specific houses in your birth chart, revealing which areas of your life need some serious reevaluation, especially when it comes to love, money, beauty & relationships. And TRUST ME, some of these mistakes could take months to fix.
