How these dates are chosen
A proposal is Venus's moment. The election wants the Moon waxing, not void of course, and applying to Venus or Jupiter, with Venus strong, ideally on an angle, and away from Mars and Saturn. A quiet advantage this year: Venus is direct the whole of 2027, so love's planet is never walking backward when you ask.
What to avoid
2027 has no Venus retrograde, which is genuinely rare and good news for matters of the heart. The Mercury retrogrades (Feb 10 to Mar 4, Jun 11 to Jul 5, Oct 8 to 29) matter less for a proposal 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 step around for a tender moment.
