Venus, the planet of relationships and values, is in the nakshatra of Chittra across the signs Virgo and Libra from October 23rd to December 5th, 2026.

This extended transit, with Venus retrograde up to November 13th, is a repeat of its passage through late August and early September this year and sees experiences from that time returning into your life. A relationship may have been complicated or on-and-off, and now you have an opportunity to address the root cause. Chittra is among the brightest stars in the sky, and its symbol of a shining jewel makes a natural setting for luxurious Venus, where you enjoy showiness and glamour and bring about a creative renaissance.

Chittra’s Shakti, or unique gift, the ‘Power to Collect Merit,’ means aiming high and doing the right thing, as you accumulate goodwill for the present and the future. This nakshatra’s rulership by Vishvakarma, the celestial architect, also shows your grand ambition and vision in both style and substance. From November 6th to 23rd, Venus receives the influence of karmic Saturn, where you may be conducting a long-distance relationship or perhaps favoring a work commitment over your social scene.

Don’t mind too much if somebody close to you is cool or distant, as you are happy to keep your relations strictly professional. It may be best to focus on business at this point, or even better, your creativity, where you have a great eye and can produce excellent work to order. Pay attention to a long-term artistic project or potential changes to your image, where you have taste, imagination, and bring about a complete personal reinvention.
