Stage is set and everyone is waiting for you. And are you ready for the spotlight? This transit helps us build a stronger belief in ourselves by committing to nurturing care on all levels. Venus now with ruler Sun in Gemini until 22nd of June adds to mental support and strength, especially when we put ourselves first.
For many people chronic health issue or some physical injury was reason to search for answers in astrology. Although astrology can help us understand why health problems occur, lack of health is the primary indicator of inadequate connection with natal chart and the entire Universe.
Retrograde Venus in Leo from July 23rd -September 4th raises questions of what is not working in natal house where Leo is located. For which person do you surrender your power? How do you behave in order to be liked a bit more? OMG, why can’t you be loved by authentically living your TRUE SELF? For some of you in long-term relationships and marriages, this may be related to eclipse in August 2017 at the 28th degree of Leo. This year Venus moves retrograde from this exact degree.
Planet return in astrology represents when a transiting planet makes an exact conjunction with the same natal planet and thus reactivates the same point. Some conjunctions can only occur a couple of times or once in a lifetime and that’s why they are very important. Also, we have conjunctions that are more frequent, but must always be interpreted within the theme of the planet’s return, which occurs less often.
In this post I will cover most important natal, transit and synastry Venus/Pluto aspects. If your natal Venus has aspect to Pluto, you will experience transit and synastry aspects more intensely. It is always important first to understand which partner is represented by Venus and which by Pluto. Venus is usually more aware that something is wrong, while Pluto operates on an unconscious level.
Venus/Mars synastry aspects determine relationship needs, but they are not enough to start a relationship. ‘Stronger’ aspects are needed to provide context. These aspects are typically associated with sexual intimacy, but have nothing to do with emotional fulfillment. These aspects show how much we give and how much we get in a relationship.
Venus describes what we love. It is about material things and enjoyment. Neptune, on the other hand, describes fantasies and non-physical reality. It’s wonderful when Neptune allows us to have dreams and visions which we will materialize through Venus. However, if this is not possible, feeling of disappointment appears.
Venus is about our inner sense of balance. Uranus speaks of freedom and unconventionality. Venus wants to enjoy love and have her wishes come true. Uranus wants to be impulsive, rebellious and unique. Their aspects include an element of risk, change and unconventionality in love relationships.
In synastry, we can use orb distance without necessarily multiplying it by seven for unmarried persons. That’s how we see when relationship turning points occur. With woman’s Moon and man’s Uranus, relationship could three years later be shaken by sudden pregnancy or break down due to need for freedom. However, if marriage lasted for 21 years, then there could be a breakup.
We need to look at the position of natal Venus first in both charts. Challenging individual aspects can often indicate a problem that can manifest in a relationship as well. Partner’s Venus position in your natal house shows what you want from this love. We must consider other factors too before drawing any conclusions. Venus in partner’s house will show how he reacts to us and which area of life brings more enjoyment thanks to his energy.
