Is there a Venus retrograde in 2027?

No. Venus does not turn retrograde at any point in 2027, so no date in the year is ruled out by it — the rarest and firmest objection this tradition raises to a wedding does not apply.

Are these dates right for us?

They are the dates the sky favours for everyone. How a date falls against your own birth chart is the larger part of a personal reading, and it can turn a generally good day into a poor one for you, or the reverse. Checking any single date against your chart is free.

Why do some months have weak Saturdays?

Because the Moon decides most of it, and the Moon does not keep to weekends. Its phase and the void-of-course stretches before it changes sign move through the week month by month. Where no Saturday clears the bar, the page says so rather than listing a weak one.

Why is Mercury retrograde not ruled out?

For a wedding it is a real but lighter weight — the tradition’s objection is to contracts and wording, not to marriage. It counts against a day here, so few retrograde dates make the lists, but it is not a veto the way Venus retrograde is.

Calculated from ephemeris for the afternoon in Europe and the Americas. Days on which Venus is retrograde, or the Moon is void of course, are left out entirely.

How these dates were chosen

Each day is scored on what is the same for every couple: whether Venus is retrograde, whether the Moon is growing, whether it is void of course, and the aspects the Moon and Venus make that day to Jupiter, Saturn, Mars and the Sun. Fridays and Thursdays, the days of Venus and Jupiter, count a little extra. The weights are the ones this site uses for a personal wedding reading, so this list cannot favour a kind of day the personal ranking would mark down.

What it cannot see is you. In a personal reading the larger part of the score comes from where that day’s planets fall against your own birth chart, and that can move a date a long way in either direction. Treat these as a shortlist, not an answer.

Which of these suits you?

Pick a date above, or type one in, and check it against your own chart — free, and with nothing held back. Your birth details are used to calculate your chart and are never stored. A pass ranks every day of a range for you instead.

What are you planning?

A binding commitment meant to last, so Saturn and Venus both matter. Avoids void Moon and retrograde Venus without exception.

About you

Used to build your birth chart. Calculated, returned, and never stored.

Date of birth

Time of birth

Local clock time where you were born. If unknown, 12:00 is the usual stand-in — the Moon and the angles lose precision.

Place of birth

Needed for your Ascendant and Midheaven.

When might it happen?

Which day are you considering?

Where will it happen? (optional)

Only worth setting if the event is in a different time zone from your birth place — it decides which local hours are scored, and the planetary hours from local sunrise.

Checking one day is free, in full — every aspect, the best hour, any warnings. A pass searches up to a full year, ranks every day, and adds any day’s best hour to your calendar.
