Venus, the feminine planet of love, and Mars, the male planet of sexuality (as well as assertion, aggression and war), are dancing with each other these days. Venus went retrograde (her apparent motion from the Earth is backwards) on March 6, backing away from Mars. This is a time when she was encouraging reassessment of relationships – pulling back to see what you want and what works for you. Did you notice that in your life?
On April 17, Venus reversed her direction and went direct. The re-evaluation is over, and now she’s moving with Mars. On April 21, they joined with each other in dreamy Pisces. They are now moving together though fiery Aries, close to each other but not quite touching. Finally, they will conjunct again in sensual Taurus, on June 21.
Aren’t they acting like we do? Backing away, pulling close, just like a courtship dance. When Venus and Mars combine, sparks can fly. Their first union in Pisces created a time when love was soft and mystical. The Aries flirtation builds the heat, and their second union in Taurus is earthy and physical. Sounds like all flavors of romance are possible!

That was the stupidest thing I've ever read. My hand just danced into my face.
Jesus...seriously?
I heard that Venus got drunk and gave a hummer to Mercury! Mars found out, and boy is he mad! He paid Jupiter a few spacebucks to toss a couple of asteroids her way!
At their ages (4.5 billion years) I'm amazed these two planets can still get it on.
Dear Satya Harvey,
I am genuinely dumbfounded as to whether your writings are sincere or sarcastic. Could you please resolve this confusion?
Regards,
Mr. Confused.
Uh...I would think an astrologer could at least get her planetary motions correct. Venus does not retrograde from Earth's (or Mars') perspective. Only planets outside Earth's orbit exhibit retrograde motion.
Really?.....no no...wait....Really?
Update...:
Venus just caught Mars fooling around with an Asteroid, and gave him a good kick in the Planetary bollocks. Mars got pished and beeotch slapped her half way across the Solar System.
Oh my god. Planets acting like we do? Are you for real. Even given that you may be talking metaphoricaly (although I'm not sure you are) you must have a very shallow perceptoin of the richness of human experience to think that the motions of planets are like human relationships.
You really are deluded and it is sickening that you peddle this nonsense to soft-minded people. Shame on you.
All flavours of romance are possible? Aren't you going out on a limb with such a specific prediction?
If the movement of the stars and planets are governed by mathematics (protip: they are), then surely we can predict these things purely with math, leaving out all of these senseless assumptions about the gender and feelings. Oh, that's right. It's all BS anyways.
"Aren’t they acting like we do?"
You mean spinning round in circles continually, like a patient on the lawn of a psychiatric hospital?
Is that where you got your inspiration? From a whicker chair on the lawn at the hospital?
Why does your writing have such sexual overtones? Like the Kaguya stuff that indicates you have suppressed sexual violence fantasises.
Paul said: "Like the Kaguya stuff that indicates you have suppressed sexual violence fantasises."
Im glad someone is finally willing to bring the power of disjointed ad-hominum attacks to bear on this lady. That'll change her mind. And the mind of anyone else reading this. Seriously people: if you are an dick to someone who can't think straight, guess what: you're still an dick.

This is a good example of Pluto's dark and turbulent influence at work. The poster "Paul" was enquiring about the sexual overtones to Satya's articles. It is not worded as an attack but "ethanol" under the influence of Pluto no doubt, takes it as such.
In any case, an "ad hominum" (sic) attack is an undermining of a person's argument without reference to the subject at hand. For example, calling someone a "dick" as if to make a point would be an ad hominem. Look up "argumentum ad hominem" for the correct usage.
I think it would be charitable to characterize Paul's statement "Why does your writing have such sexual overtones? Like the Kaguya stuff that indicates you have suppressed sexual violence fantasises." as an earnest inquiry. Even if we accept it as such, the second sentence (the one I quoted in my previous post) is an assertion, not a question. Furthermore it is an assertion about the author's subconsciousness which, while not necessarily an attack, should certainly be expected to be inflammatory. Nor is any support offered to back this extraordinary claim. Because this was framed as a part of a question and not a counter-point, it is not strictly an ad hominem, but it certainly qualifies as a "dick" statement. By a "dick" statement I mean that it fails to treat someone with a basic level of respect which in our society is generally afforded to people who have not personally wronged or insulted you.
