Fake friends? Venus retro drama incoming

This Venus retrograde asks you to look closely at your friendships. Do they feel solid and real? Sometimes, those you consider close might not be who you think. This period can sadly reveal when connections lack depth.

The astrological idea of “enemies” here isn’t about outright hate, but more about friction or values that don’t align, leading to a lack of true support. As Venus retrogrades, these hidden tensions might become clearer. You might find yourself questioning the motives of certain friends, sensing a hollowness or even subtle manipulation. The desire for genuine connection during this time can make shallow friendships feel even more disheartening.

Old hurts from friendships may return. Past betrayals might feel fresh again. You trusted, but they let you down. Now, feelings echo with deep pain. You might view things quite differently. Sad truths emerge from past views. Patterns appear that you once missed. This feels like a heavy time. You’re sorting through all your ties. Some may not truly support you. Their intentions aren’t what they seemed. You’re learning who is really real. Look beyond smiles and kind words. Seek honesty, not just warm presence. True connection is clearer through hurt.

The “drama” of this time isn’t always loud arguments. Often, it’s a quiet shift in your awareness. You might become more sensitive to subtle signs of insincerity or a lack of true loyalty. This can lead you to slowly distance yourself from those who feel untrue, or perhaps to have difficult but necessary conversations seeking more honesty. Though tinged with sadness, this process aims to clear space for more authentic and supportive bonds in the long run. As Venus moves forward again, the unraveling of these less genuine friendships, viewed through a lens of potential discord, allows for truer, more comforting connections to eventually grow.
