Get ready because we are going to have six retrograde planets in 2021. Is this bad? Of course not! Each retrogradation is an interesting phase to review issues in your life, to look inside yourself, and sometimes to review something from the past that was not so well resolved.

Retrograde planets do not mean that the stars are "going backwards", but that the positioning of the planet that has gone retrograde relative to the Earth causes us to see them as if they were "going backwards" during a certain period.

Astrology interprets the retrograde planets from Earth and understands that this positioning can bring trends about the psychological aspects that those planets represent during that phase.

For example, Mercury represents communication, and it is possible that during Mercury retrograde, speech may not be so clear, the agreement may not go as planned, or what was contracted may have to be rethought.

Here you can see which and the dates of the retrograde planets in 2021 and understand them in your life.

Venus retrograde 2021

  • From 12/19/2021 to 01/29/2022

Once every year and a half, the planet of relationships, Venus goes retrograde for about 45 days. In times of Venus retrograde it is worth being more cautious with unusual aesthetic procedures, especially the more intense and invasive ones.

Purchases, sales, and negotiations tend to become more difficult with Venus retrograde. There is inherent tension regarding financial matters at this time.

There is also a greater chance of awkwardness and questioning arising in relationships.

Saturn retrograde 2021

  • 23/05 a 10/10/2021

With Saturn retrograde, responsibilities and boundaries involving career, profession, and public image come under review.

Mars retrograde 2021

  • After spending four months retrograde in 2020, Mars will not go retrograde in 2021 .

Jupiter retrograde 2021

  • 20/06 a 18/10

Jupiter retrograde Jupiter rules the great events, travel, justice, philosophy of life. When this planet is retrograde, one can say that there is some loss in its external functions with gain in the internal ones.

Travel with Jupiter retrograde may not be perfect (but what is perfection?) There may be a certain amount of unexpectedness, doubt, and tension.

Another important thing: the giant Jupiter invites us first to grow inside - looking at the places where we no longer fit - and then to aspire to do this outside. With the planet in retrograde, you will have the chance to take a great flight inward.

Uranus retrograde 2021

  • 19/08 a 18/01

Uranus represents freedom and independence, but not in the way that is generally thought. The independence represented by Uranus is in relation to what is established as the social norm.

A Uranus transit can bring about important changes. Until 2026, Uranus is in Taurus (just so you understand: the last time Uranus was in Taurus was between 1935 and May 1942. Yes, during World War II, a time that drastically altered the world).

With Uranus retrograde it is possible to oscillate between collapses and ruptures and encourage us to face the obstacles we need to confront. What you want to change may be easier to analyze during Uranus retrograde.

Neptune retrograde 2021

  • 25/06 a 01/12

Neptune has to do with rethinking and deepening dreams and aspirations. Something like "Am I really connected to my dreams?", "What do I actually do for my dreams?", "Do I sabotage myself?". Not infrequently, it can bring back deceptions and illusions, as if it were a test.

Pluto retrograde 2021

  • 27/04 a 06/10

The phenomenon of retrogradation is quite common: once a year, for almost six months, Pluto will be retrograde. This indicates that almost half of the population will have Pluto retrograde on your map.

According to some astrologers, Pluto retrograde will be better perceived if, in this period, it stands in opposition to the Sun or if it is the protagonist of some important astrological configuration. Otherwise, its meanings are well diluted in other more personal contexts .
