While Venus was retrograde we may have come up against  many pent up feelings and desires. The desire nature is turned inward during this phase and we can fee a lot of frustration. "You can't always get what you want " comes to mind.  Now that our planet of love, money and fashion sense turns direct in Leo we can express and let loose again. With it's passage through Leo we like big displays of energy and attention or affection. We may want that big tear jerking movie or delight in some romantic gestures - even if only in our minds.   People may want to dress up and look our best, flaunt a recent purchase or brand name. But hopefully it will bring out our generosity and our inner child nature where we are free and confident to share and give with a spirit of innocence.
