First, the question is wrong. Venus does have unusual rotation, but that's because it rotates clockwise (as viewed from above our north pole). One current theory suggests that Venus thick and heavy atmosphere has acted like a giant "air brake" slowing its rotational speed over time.
Other theories suggest that there was a collision with another body and this caused Venus rotation to slow and reverse.
Incidentally, although Venus itself rotates very slowly (rotational period 243 Earth days), its equatorial clouds have a rotation period of 4 days (equivalent to wind speeds of 100m/s). Consequently the cloud tops are rotating faster than the surface of the planet. Some of the Sun's energy is absorbed in the atmosphere in a "greenhouse effect" due to the heavy concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. This energy provides the main driving force for the atmosphere's "super rotation".

What planet rotates retrograde motion?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
What does the minus sign suggest in the tables period of revolution in Venus?
Most planets rotate anticlockwise. However, Venus rotates clockwise in retrograde rotation once every 243 Earth days. The "-" sign indicates retrograde rotation.
Which planet in the solar system spins in the opposite direction?
Both Venus and Uranus have a "retrograde" axial spin. They rotate clockwise when viewed from a point high above Earth's north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
What planet revolves different from all other planets.It goes counter-clockwise?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
How does venus rotate the sun?
The sun in facts does not rotate around Venus: Venus rotates are the sun on its axis.
How does the sun rotate around Venus's?
The sun in facts does not rotate around Venus: Venus rotates are the sun on its axis.
Which planet moves anticlockwise round the sun?
Six of the eight major planets rotate "anticlockwise" (counterclockwise) as seen from above the Earth's north pole: Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune. The rotation of Venus is slowly clockwise, while the spin of Uranus is now observed to be clockwise because it has been tipped over more than 90 degrees "onto its side" (as if rolling along its orbital path at times).
Which planet rotates counterclockwise?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
Which planet spins clockwise?
Venus As well as Venus, Uranus is generally said to be rotating clockwise as well. But it is also tilted, so it can be said to be rotating either clockwise or anti-clockwise, depending on whether one thinks it is inclined 82° in one direction, or 98° in the opposite direction !
All the planets in the solar system rotate anticlockwise except for 1 which one?
None of them.
How does Venus rotate?
Venus has a retrograde rotation, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction of most planets in our solar system. It rotates very slowly, taking about 243 Earth days to complete one day on Venus.
Which direction does the moon rotate if it orbits anticlockwise?
That means that if you observe from the north, it would rotate counterclockwise - the direction opposite of the rotation of a clock's hands.
