Venus is in retrograde and she is teaching you and I about our self worth through the mirror of our relationships. And you may be finding that you are feeling frustrated with some of your old, superficial and shallow relationships. However, those relationships also may be showing you how much you have been neglecting yourself and your needs. When you neglect yourself, you deprive yourself of what you need: attention, support, encouragement, and love. It is natural for you then to look toward others to provide it for you. The problem is that others cannot do it for you. They cannot fill the void you create by depriving yourself of self-care. Today, begin to recognize that what you are seeking and finding in your relationships is truly a reflection of what you are seeking from yourself. Today, treat yourself as if you are someone you deeply love-without apologies. The relationship you have with yourself sets the tone for all the other relationships you have in your life.The good thing is that you are in charge of that now. You have the power and you get to choose how you treat yourself. As you begin to love and honor yourself, the relationships you previously had may just melt away because you are learning your own worth and unfortunately they cannot never understand nor value it that is why they came into your life. . Loving yourself will create more reciprocal and satisfying relationships. Loving yourself will create miracles in your life.

Just for today, I treat myself as if I am someone I deeply love and tell myself frequently that I love you. I am my own best friend. Other friends may come and go but I am always here for and with myself. I support myself in feeling good. I attract only loving relationships into my life for they are a reflection of who and what I am. I am a blessed child of the Universe. I am safe and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.
