Venus

Venus governs love, relationships, aesthetics, and material comfort. It reveals what you value most, how you express affection, and what draws you in, whether that is a person, a place, or a beautifully designed room. Venus rules Taurus (sensual, grounded love of beauty) and Libra (relational harmony and aesthetic balance). In the natal chart, Venus shows romantic style and attraction patterns. Venus in Scorpio loves with fierce intensity and all-or-nothing depth; Venus in Aquarius needs intellectual stimulation and space. Its condition by sign, house, and aspect describes both relationship patterns and your relationship with money and self-worth, because what you value and what you attract are closely connected. Venus also governs art, fashion, and diplomacy. It never strays more than 48 degrees from the Sun, so your Venus sign is always close to your Sun sign. When Venus retrogrades every 18 months, old relational or value questions may resurface for review.
