Venus’s zones of influence: beauty, love, art, choice, friendship, partnership, material values.

In love, the native prefers romance. An important role is played by moonlit walks, poetry, stimulating conversation, and visits to the theater. Venus also influences the sexual side of relationships, but this tends to remain in the background.

Venus is the ruler of the Second and Seventh Houses. The Second House indicates money and property. It shapes the native’s aesthetic taste in matters of home interior and the possessions they choose to surround themselves with. The Seventh House is responsible for marriage, partnerships in business and politics, and business contracts.

As a symbol of the feminine principle, Venus avoids aggression and seeks to prevent conflict. It is endowed with intelligence and a deep appreciation of beauty.

Under the influence of the “beautiful planet,” the native is predisposed to professions connected with the arts. Venus is the patroness of actors, artists, musicians, and poets. To this list can be added designers, fashion designers, perfumers, and advertising specialists.

The role of Venus in health matters is to govern the circulatory system, kidneys, thyroid gland, and female reproductive organs.

Strong Venus and Positive Aspects

With positive aspects, a strong Venus is a source of warmth, tenderness, and selfless devotion.

The native possesses exceptional magnetism. A charming appearance may contribute to this, but even in the absence of physical attractiveness, the native evokes sympathy and trust in others. The secret of this charm lies in the richness of the inner world.

The life of a person favored by Venus is full of vivid and interesting experiences. There is often material abundance as well.

An auspicious but weak Venus may give the character a certain coldness or restraint, making it difficult for the native to find true happiness and love.

Afflicted Venus

With challenging aspects, an afflicted Venus may create a tendency in the native to live at the expense of others, to avoid work, and to spend money irresponsibly. The person’s philosophy of life may revolve around taking without giving anything in return.

Outbursts of jealousy can provoke endless dramatic scenes and ultimately lead to the breakdown of relationships.

An unfavorable conjunction can indicate sexual problems, an unsettled personal life, and hostility from others.

Another possible negative manifestation of Venus is a lack of artistic taste. The native may prefer kitsch and mass-market goods, remaining indifferent to high art.

Harmonious Aspects

Harmonious aspects provide the native with opportunities for spiritual development. Enjoyment of art can lead the person to active participation in artistic creation.

Beneficial aspects teach the native how to earn money and get along with colleagues and household members.

The native is full of original ideas that are recognized by others. Their home is always beautiful and comfortable.

However, the absence of serious problems can foster passivity and laziness, both in work and in love. Success with the opposite sex may also lead to narcissism and a tendency toward unstable relationships.

Tense Aspects

Tense aspects symbolize difficulties in communication and poor decision-making. Work or creative pursuits may not bring satisfaction. The native may lack true friends. Family life can be clouded by quarrels and misunderstandings. Colleagues may be cold, and superiors may show disdain. Home furnishings and clothing—despite significant spending—may seem tasteless and fail to bring joy.

Repeated disappointments can block the native’s ability to love, take action, or make changes in life.

However, it should be remembered that tense aspects always contain the potential for personal growth and for changing the situation. The native needs to fill the voids in their soul with beauty, warmth, and light. Others are sure to notice this transformation. ✓
