Who's the jerk in your inner circle, Virgo? Harmonizer Venus turns retrograde until November 13, backing up through Scorpio and bringing friction with friends, then scooting into Libra and muddling money matters after October 25. Out of "nowhere," a sibling, beloved BFF or your closest work confidant could come at you with a major gripe. This person is one of your most treasured connections and you don't want to say something that could drive a permanent wedge. Press pause on this particular argument and come back to it once you're both feeling a little less heated. Despite all the friction of this transit, there IS a silver lining. Venus' backspin can also reinvigorate neglected friendships or romances. Just don't rush into any full-blown commitments until after November 13. When Venus slips back into Libra on October 25, take stock of your finances and tighten your belt as needed. An influential figure from your past could bring you a lucrative career opportunity. Line up that power lunch!
