Venus is called the Evening Star and it happens in the couple of months before inferior conjunction. Venus's orbit is inside ours so it goes quicker and while it is catching us up it appears in the evening sky before and after sunset. While that is happening it's getting closer to us all the time, becoming brighter and brighter. Eventually it moves quickly in front of the Sun and disappears. A few weeks later it reappears the other side as the Morning Star before and after dawn.
You can see all this happening if you wait until the autumn of 2013.
