Venus – MC (Midheaven) Opposition – To Give or to Take?

The opposition of planets and important points in the horoscope creates an excess of the qualities of one participant and a weakness of the other. The difficulty, however, is that depending on the situation and the level of spiritual experience, these fluctuations occur constantly. If the opposition occurs between the Meridian of the Midheaven, which indicates the sphere of fame, and Venus, then the native is torn between the desire to be loved within the family circle and the need to be popular among millions.

Close people may hinder the desire to become rich and famous, or, for the sake of a dream, the person may sacrifice quiet family happiness. Sometimes this choice has to be made more than once. Harmonizing these extremes is difficult because there is no inner sense of emotional balance. Egoism gives way to self-sacrifice and a complete lack of understanding of one’s true value.

The Dangers of the Venus – MC Opposition

Men and women with the Venus – Midheaven opposition cannot decide what is more important: to be the family favorite, giving tenderness and care while devoting themselves to others, or to follow their dream, earning money through popularity in creativity or business while suffering from the dissatisfaction of loved ones. Family members quickly get used to the attentiveness and courtesy of aspect holders and do not want to share them with the whole world.

At the same time, if the native uses the gifts of Venus correctly, taking into account the zodiac sign of the Tenth House and applying their talents in the sphere indicated by the MC, they can easily reach the level of a world-class star. However, this will not pass without consequences. Most often, personal life suffers, and without love and care, the owner of the Venus – MC opposition withers or goes to extremes.

At a high level of development, the main pleasure is to create a beautiful home where relatives and loved ones are happy. When emotionally dissatisfied, the person begins to attend parties and questionable places, throwing money around in order to buy other people’s impression of them as a generous, creative nature. This creates gossip and leads to a loss of reputation. It is important to know all shades of the aspect’s influence on destiny:

• a loving, sincere nature with a need to be an opinion leader in areas of personal interest: beauty, health, financial stability, and material pleasures;
• a desire to be a source of love and to receive it, but an inability to do both at the same time: the person turns from an energetic donor into a vampire, unexpectedly both for themselves and for others;
• a desire to be accepted in the highest circles of society, which is obvious when Venus is strong, but with negative aspects may cause sycophancy and groveling before wealthy and popular people;
• a habit of receiving love and public attention through sacrificing themselves for others, whether for family or work;
• the mask of a good girl or good boy in order to maintain appearances in any situation, although this often creates an impression of falseness and affectation;
• a passion for luxury and the attributes of a beautiful life, including social events.

Men and women with the Venus – MC opposition know how to create coziness and comfort at home even from whatever is at hand, but if they do not have the opportunity to live in a beautifully furnished home in a prestigious area, they may fall into depression. It is contraindicated for them to economize on themselves, because this creates a lack of Venusian energy, which blocks the money channel.

Personal Relationships

The native had a happy childhood with loving parents. The family did not experience financial need. This created the confidence that life works according to the rules when there is comfort, prosperity, and emotional harmony with loved ones.

However, this is not a guarantee of luck in love. Men and women strive to recreate the picture of family happiness in which they grew up, and in seventy percent of cases, with a strong Venus and a harmonious Seventh House, they truly are lucky enough to meet a loving, caring partner, create a cozy nest, and enjoy comfort.

But when faced with the egoism and dictatorial tendencies of another person, whether at work or in personal relationships, they simply do not know how to react, having no experience of dealing with emotionally cold partners.

Aspect holders immediately sacrifice themselves in order to earn love and restore the familiar harmony, but if they give up professional realization, personal pleasures, and creativity, no one will appreciate their sacrifice.

Working Through the Venus – MC Opposition

It is important for the chart owner to find a balance between egoism and the right to make a dream real. The person often gives up professional goals, believing that loved ones will not manage without their support and care, or secretly enjoys sacrificing personal interests for others and how this looks in the eyes of society.

The best solution is a family enterprise. The Venus – MC opposition brings financial profit in business partnership with family members, even if it is a hobby, such as an art school or a theatrical enterprise, not to mention private entrepreneurship. Success awaits in professions connected with art, the beauty and health industry, the hotel business, real estate, trade, and jewelry.

It is important to become the owner of one’s own home as early as possible, as this gives confidence and stability. At work, it is recommended to wear clothing in pink, scarlet, or light lilac shades. Talisman stones can help bring luck in career and love: diamond, turquoise, white topaz and sapphire, rose quartz, and spinel.  ✓
