Secret affair, breakup, meeting true love… What love affair awaits you this summer? Perhaps you won’t have a choice… And for good reason: from the point of view of the stars, this summer will not be a summer like the others.Venus, planet of love, emotional life and of the principle of harmony, will retrograde this summer. What does this mean, exactly?

“All the planets revolve around the sun, and in their course, some will give the impression of going backwards: they are then said to retrograde. Venus retrogrades approximately every 18 months, and this year it retrogrades in Leo from the July 23 and will resume its direct march on the following September 4”, explains Natacha S., astrologer for more than 30 years.

“I give video consultations all over the world, and am the astrologer for Top Music radio. A few months ago, I started on YouTube and publish the horoscope of the week every Sunday, sign by sign”, summarizes she.

Regarding Venus, “it returns to Leo on June 5 and will remain there until October 9”, continues the star specialist. It is rare for a planet to remain so long in the same sign: “it will retrace its steps, start again… This will have a significant influence on love and emotional life in summer”, she explains.

This configuration will particularly accentuate the charm of the signs of fire, but will affect many signs of the Zodiac. In our slideshow below, discover the horoscope of the signs of summer, ranked from most to least impacted by the retrograde of Venus.
