How these dates are chosen
A first meeting is pure Venus: attraction, ease, delight. The Moon should be waxing, not void of course (so it goes somewhere), and applying to Venus, with Venus strong and away from Mars and Saturn. This year Venus is direct all twelve months, so love's planet is never walking backward.
What to avoid
2027 has no Venus retrograde, the single best thing you can ask for in matters of the heart. The Mercury retrogrades matter less for a date than for a contract, but the eclipse seasons around Feb 6 and 20 and around Jul 18, Aug 2, and Aug 17 carry a charge you may prefer to skip for a soft first meeting.
