| Venus: Your Love Life |
| Romance. Beauty. Artistic instinct. Sociability. Venus governs our ability to attract compatible people, to create close personal relationships and to form business partnerships. It expresses how we relate to other people one-to-one and how we express ourselves in marriage and in romantic relationships. Since Venus determines our spontaneous attractions to other people, it is one of the areas to look at when doing chart comparisons for compatibility. When Venus falls in another person's Sun sign, it enhances the initial attraction and bodes well for overall compatibility. This planet, along with the Moon, is associated with maternal love in that it gives what it has freely and without strings attached. Venus is associated with the arts and the aesthetic sense, and it has enormous influence on our tastes in art, music, and literature. The sign and placement of Venus, as well as its aspects, determine our refinement .. or lack of it. This planet also has some bearing on material resources, earning capacity, and spending habits. A strong Venus enhances these things; a poorly placed or badly aspected Venus generates laziness, self-indulgence, extravagance, and discord in partnerships. Venus orbits the Sun in 255 days. It spends about four weeks in a sign when moving direct and is retrograde for about six weeks. It rules all professions having to do with the arts and music. Its natural houses are the second and the seventh, and it governs Taurus and Libra. It rules the neck, throat, thyroid gland, kidneys, ovaries, veins, and circulation of the venous blood. It shares rulership with the Moon over the female sex organs. |
