Venus in your zodiac

 

VENUS IN ARIES

Venus is very weak in Aries. The activity of the sign is too ruthless, and the pace of energy too fast for the light, material character of Venus. The planet is not enhanced by the dashing Aries idealism, and the domestic leanings of Venus are not encouraged by Aries. Aries is a sign of accomplishment in the outer world, and the Venus thought of personal development is not helped by Aries. Aries makes the love nature fiery, impetuous, demanding, but also giving. It makes it a generous ardent fleeting set of impulses. An Aries Venus is masculine in thought, a real young Lochinvar lover who rides gallantly in, but also rides away.

VENUS IN TAURUS

Venus is very powerful in Taurus. It is the ruler of the sign, and people with Venus in Taurus may expect to find a material atmosphere around their love life. They will seek wealthy mates, and even if the planet is opposed by other forces, the chances are that their persistence and patient pursuit will finally with the love and position they are seeking. The fortunes of the person with Venus in this position are apt to vary, but here is a determined urge toward domestic contentment, worldly love, and the satisfaction of the personal ambitions. This is a rather ruthless Venus, tireless in her quest for love and the material good things of life. The love nature here is deep, secret and unchanging, with feminine intensity and masculine strength. The person is apt to have a great sexual appetite and be very satisfying in the responses to love.

VENUS IN GEMINI

Venus is moderately strong in Gemini. She has a very material outlook in this sign, and when found in this position in the horoscope of a woman the tendencies will be for gold digging. The emotional life or any romantic goal when controlled by Venus in this sign is often attained through trickery triumph over rivals and all of the camouflage possible under the circumstances. The love nature itself is youthful airy mercurial and full of sunshine and clouds. The touch of the lover is exceedingly light bantering flirtatious and fleeting.

VENUS IN CANCER

Venus has a very maternal quality in Cancer. Those with Venus in this sign at birth will seek love through their ability to mother and protect. The instincts of this Venus are softly melancholy and brooding. Here is an urge to tend the home, bring up a family, and nourish every member of the household. These natives must love, posses and serve something and their natural outlet is home and family. When as sometimes happens larger issues enter the life the object of affection is merely service to humanity or to God. In most cases Venus fulfills the personal urge of this sign be it man or woman (although this is a feminine Venus) and she fills the native with power to draw love through devotion to the home ideals. This love is very deep and passionate protective and nourishing.

VENUS IN LEO

The sign of Leo is a very vital sign, so that any planet found posited there at birth will have a good deal of energy. Therefore a Leo-Venus is vital, hot, passionate, almost overpoweringly generous and inspiring, but not fruitful. The nature of Leo is arid, like the sun and planets coming under this dominion reflect something of its character. People having Venus posited in Leo achieve their romantic ambitions through their own efforts and the force of their personality. They have plenty of energy to pursue their desires and are rich in the magnetism to attract. The standards of Leo are so high and the romantic conceptions so lofty that few measure up to the ideals of the Leo-Venus. The results are often people with the love life tragically unfulfilled.

VENUS IN VIRGO

Venus is weak in Virgo. The natures of the sign and the planet do not harmonize. It goes deeper than this. The basic qualities of Virgo are not food for Venus, therefore this emotional urge is starved and stunted. People with Venus posited in this sign usually attain their romantic ends, such as they are, through flattery, courting the beloved, and a painstaking personal service. The lover is apt to be persistent. The first to come and last to leave, in fact, he wears his’ adversary out. Usually his’ ambitions lead him to the beloved, and he courts some sort of material betterment through love. In a woman’s natal figure this type of Venus frequently gives her a chaste, fragile look when she is very young. That has great appeal for the more spiritually minded man, or the man who is very jealous. This chaste appearance wears off later in life, and freezes into being cool and impersonal that is mighty disappointing when translated into the emotional nature. This kind of woman has no power to give herself, and her whole ideology of romantic love is distorted.

VENUS IN LIBRA

Venus is at the peak of her’ power in Libra, where she may be considered in her own highest octave. She is the ruler of this sign, and people who have her posited in Libra at birth make the most interesting romancers of all types. They should always use a beautiful, high-minded, aesthetic approach to love. Their actions should be one of gracious appreciation. This sign influence is very delicately proportioned between the male and the female; therefore with Venus posited in the sign at birth, the balance of the sexes might easily be disturbed. Homosexuals and sometimes prostitutes are among the most passionate of all types, and their sense of the exquisite leads them to glorify perversion and perform the erotic in sex like a ritual. Those who are more happily balanced make the most desirable if not the most permanent mates in the Zodiac.

VENUS IN SCORPIO

Venus is at her very weakest in Scorpio. Her influence here is sensual and profligate at best and her’ strength no equal ballast for the dark passions of Scorpio. The native with this configuration in the birth figure is apt to pursue love with great extravagance of courtship. These people would exact and give a very demonstrative love, and be exceedingly physical in their-practices. They might seek to enslave the beloved by catering to some physical vice or at least some sensuality that would create an affair both intense, erotic and abnormal. In less exaggerated cases the lover is simply passionate with a tremendous appetite for sex. This is a jealous, demanding attitude, but it is also an extremely devoted and generous one.

VENUS IN SAGITTARIUS

Venus is considered the lower octave of Jupiter, and Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius. Some of the gifts of Venus on the material plane are also a part of the Jupiter character; for instance, extravagance in thought and pocketbook, cheer, charm and good temper when well aspected. Therefore the relationship between this sign and Venus is friendly, although Venus is only moderately powerful in the sign. Actually the proportions of Sagittarius are too vast for the limited powers of Venus. The person with this aspect in the birth figure will seek love through the use of influence, power, and worldly favors. A woman with this aspect may have superior qualities and marry far above her station in life. She is likely to be very ambitious, jealous of her standing and reputation, and gifted in many ways. Men having this birth position will seek a social existence in some group that is distinguished in one way or another. They are likely to have a polished sophisticated manner, be well educated, and have all the outward trappings of success.

VENUS IN CAPRICORN

Venus is not at her best in this sign, and those with this birth figure are apt to have little warmth in the love nature. They approach their romantic ambitions timidly without confidence, and an innate knowledge that they are romantically handicapped. 

This is a very practical figure and Venus here uses her charms to gain material benefits. This sign often indicates some measure of self-sacrifice and with Venus in this birth sign, especially if afflicted, the chances are that love will be sacrificed to gain material benefit. 

If we find Venus posited in Capricorn in a woman’s chart her appearance may be most romantic tall and statuesque with large somber, brooding eyes, but her temperament will be very practical. Her interests will be largely on the date of the marriage and whether the suitor can support her properly. She will take her duties as a wife seriously and in a material way prove a fine wife. Emotionally she is apt to prove a bit austere and somewhat of a check-rein on the husband who would make a rollicking game of love. For the man with Venus in this birth sign, he is apt to bury his’ secret romantic leanings if they do not fit in with his’ ambitions. He feels that to enjoy love is a little bit wrong anyway, and he cannot quite understand how other men remain good men and indulge their physical passions. From his’ point of view a man falls when he accedes to love. If this type of man was lucky enough to have a wife who could disabuse him of these ideas he would be a much happier man.

VENUS IN AQUARIUS

This position of Venus in the birth chart often makes what is described as “Ladies and Gentleman”. These people have a well bred, gracious manner, and they display intelligence and taste in the life. They use tact and diplomacy to secure the coveted loves and romances of existence and they have so much in their favor that success is usually theirs for the asking. This position is not one of fiery passion, but rather a subtle exchange of the refinements of passion. A satisfaction of the desire for companionship, home-building, joint career building and intellectual harmony. Both men and women of this type are ideally attractive to other people, but they themselves are exceedingly fussy and discriminating in their choice of a mate and buried under all of their high sounding selection is a streak of common sense that seeks dignity and decency in the loved one.

VENUS IN PISCES

Venus is exalted in Pisces and in one of her most powerful positions in the Zodiac. Here Venus is in her own element combined with a sign character that expands her lush sensuousness and all of her sympathetic virtues. This Neptunian Venus makes her natives approach their dream of love with a silent, spiritual, insinuating appeal that works slowly and secretly through the heart of the beloved until the capture is made. These are very devoted people, often serving the loved one with the most delightful attentions, never failing in the romantic appeal, regardless of which sex is doing the wooing. Women with this figure in the birth chart are better suited to the quality of the position than are the men. The softness of the temperament is naturally womanly and very fruitful. Women of this type are beautiful and carry an indefinable aura of love in their appearance and manner. They seem to fill every act of love with a tender graciousness, and they raise the whole physical performance of sex up to the highest spiritual rapture. On the other hand when Venus is afflicted it can somewhat change the picture. Either the ultimate goal of the native’s desires must be attained over tremendous odds or the love nature is perverted through muddled impulses of spirit and flesh.
