T O P I C R E V I E WlibrasunleomoonWhat are your experiences with having this/ knowing people who have it? I've googled just about everything on it and I'm really curious about more personal experiences. I find I need a lot of attention and closeness especially from my partner or I feel empty and sad, and I like being the center of attention (Leo moon and Sag rising probably help with that lol)SaraiMy boyfriend has Venus conjunct Mars in Cancer and he needs and craves intensity in his relationships. He's also picky with friendships. All his closest friends (he's got about four) he's known for years and they've actually been through stuff together - it's not only about length of time.My boyfriend also LOVES to be pampered but he's a Taurus, plus he's got the Venus/Mars conjunction in Cancer. blue moonI've got the Square. Er, let's not go there, eh. *sensible answer later*Seeing Stars 7.21a dynamic intense attraction in synastry.blue moonVenus and Mars together is a passionate combination. It might sound good - love and sexual energy combined - but it can be greedy and overpowering. Insatiable is probably a better word than greedy, but that conjures overly sexual connotations. Venus and Mars is also Social Interactions and Aggression or Energy, for a less negative word. Put like that it doesn't sound so much fun. With the Conjunction, you are getting a powerful combination working together, probably in one sign. So you are getting a really strong flavour of the needs of that sign. In a Square, like mine, you are getting two energies that don't work together very well in incompatible signs. On my chart, it links into a T-Square with Mercury, the nodes and the Asc/Desc axis. The effort I make to control my temper is a significant part of how this manifests itself on a personal level. But with age, the more challenging aspects become easier to cope with. Finding a way to channel your energies productively can be hard, but there is a real choice - use it creatively or destructively. augentierI had a good friend whose Venus and Mars were conjunct, in Pisces. He's very religious/spiritual but also very accepting of others. SaraiOh yeah, I have another friend with Venus and Mars in a very tight conjunction in Virgo. In relationship terms she is really particular, like an Other will just magnify her Virgo traits. Not to say she isn't sensual...it's more that she dwells on little things the rest of us wouldn't necessarily even pick up on.janeAn ex of mine has Venus conjunct Mars (and Mercury) in Aries. He has a Pisces ASC and those three planets are in his first house.You may think that all that Aries energy would make him self-centered and ultra competitive, but he's actually a very giving person. To me, he comes across a lot like a Libra, something that has always confused me b/c he has nothing in that sign except Pluto.His Venus-Mars-Mercury conjunction is in a grand trine with his Moon in Leo and his Neptune in Sag. And it opposes his 7th house Pluto.Actually, I guess it's his 7th house Pluto opposing that first house stellium that gives him a Libra feel. I don't know if he could be in a social situation and not focus on the needs of the other person he's with. He's charming, articulate, and assumes a kind-hearted alpha position in most social situations. If there's someone who seems left out, he makes an effort to put them at ease and involve them with the group. (I think this has a lot to do with Venus in the first house, since my SO has that and is similar.)He is extremely focused and hard-working in terms of his education and career. He's a professor and spends most of his time on activities related to his subject.I don't have the conj, but I do have a Venus-Mars trine.Edit: Forgot about sex! What's come over me? He had a strong sex drive and felt the responsibility to make it good for me too. For the most part, that's an outstanding feature in a lover , but sometimes it would feel like pressure to enjoy myself so that he could then enjoy himself, instead of just expressing everything naturally and honestly. But he is very sexy. What's the full story on your Venus & Mars--house placement, sign, and other aspects?The full picture will reveal more about how your conjunction works for you than looking at the conjunction alone.librasunleomoonhere you go http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh88/xoxolslmoxox/mychart.jpg Lei_KueiIve got Venus conjunct Mars in Aries 5th House...He had a strong sex drive and felt the responsibility to make it good for me too.

Im fecking near insatiable in bed, I'm extremely competitive and love to play games of all kinds.blue moonlibrasunleomoon - you look like you are a really sweet-natured and all around nice person. Your Venus/Mars is getting a lot of chart interaction. It trines Neptune - so that makes me think you are particularly kind and loving. It's got a wide Square to Jupiter/Uranus - that is a bit more testing, maybe self-indulgent and needing constant stimulation. It's also wide of a Square to the Ascendant, so that could show you sometimes have a problem in how you come across in social situations. Maybe a bit demanding, overpowering. Then it makes a Sextile to the heavy-duty Conjunction of Saturn and Pluto. That sounds hard work, but you could make something of it. http://www.astrologyweekly.com/astrological-aspects/pluto-conjunct-saturn.php Your Mars is in Virgo - I always like that placement. It's often found in the chart of artistic people. Here it joins with so many planets I would be surprised if there wasn't some creative skill you possess that you could use as an outlet for your energies. Mars in Virgo joins to Venus in Leo, so being at the end of a very different sign this makes it a bit more of an uncomfortable mix as a Conjunction than some of the other persons who have responded to this thread. It can be hard to live with cravings and strong passions. Even with the right partner complementing your needs, whether that is attention or the more literally physical kind, some creative outlet does help. This Conjunction is strong on your chart. The Sun isn't doing as much, it Sextiles to Ascendant/Jupiter/Uranus and the Moon looks unaspected up there in the 9th house which brings its own issues. Mercury is Square Neptune, so it's likely you can be a bit of a dreamer. But again, artistic insight is likely. A rough sketch of your chart, hope it helps a little, lots of things to look into and think about. LadychopsticksI have one in Virgo in my 3rd house (along with my sun and mercury) and I also happen to know two guys who have theirs in Virgo as well - gee, it's like I have a radar for Virgo Venus people or something DainBramagedI find a venus in leo guy very attractive and i have venus in mars conjunct in leo in the 10th, and he has venus in leo in the 10th, and we both have libra risinglibrasunleomoonthanks blue moon, haha, i wanted your screen name when i signed up :P that is pretty accurate about me! actually i am a singer. that is amazing mars in virgo is artistic. i definitely need the creativity and a relationship that stimulates mind body and soul...Leo-Cancer98 quote:Originally posted by Sarai:My boyfriend has Venus conjunct Mars in Cancer and he needs and craves intensity in his relationships.

The conjunction is a fusion dynamic of merging two energies. So it can indicate readiness of social grace, alertness to social cues and social energies, responding to their stimulus readily. It can also mean a strong desire to put beauty in action, so art/entertainment. So the person with this aspect can be enjoyable to be around because they want to put their brand of humor forward and their best qualities forward. Yes, this aspect does imply a romantic outlook and a warmth of response to others, but the sex and charm part of this has been over-emphasized. There is more potential creativity, art, entertainment, and general social urge in it. The dynamic of the aspect depends on things like how tight it is, whether one or both planets are retrograde, which planet is the applying planet, thus how the aspect progresses. For meMy birth chart has a wide conjunction of Venus in late Taurus to Mars in early Gemini (orb 6.7°). So Venus was applying to Mars, indicating a new dynamic in soul development.The personal partI think it adds emphasis on immediacy of sense impressions, my affections and appreciation of beauty, which I don't express outwardly much except to my wife. I experience more as a kind of poet's passive sensuality in response to women, animals, nature, music, art, etc. (My conjunction is opposite Neptune.) But that's the essential Mars part of it: I have to put it into action and writing poetry is how I do it best. (I was a solo singer in my teens.) I've also got the painting bug lately and will be adding that to my artsy activities. I've had to learn the importance of music in my emotional well being. I have to stay involved with music as an active listener, expanding my exposures and tastes (recently learning to like some jazz). Otherwise, I can become emotionally flat, dull, depressive (Moon in Capricorn).The social partI've come out of myself socially very gradually over the years (Virgo rising personality), but more in my 30s (I'm 49.) I'm not a charmer or a "ladies man." I was over 30 before my first reciprocal dating relationship. However, I do love women and prefer them generally to men.Socially I'm kinda ambivert. Introverted at home, but feel free to talk to strangers and interact spontaneously when out. In fact, I wish people did that more, but I understand not everyone is in the mood for it when I am. I like interacting spontaneously with all kinds of people and an ideal day for me is to ride the bus around town, stopping in parks, writing, watching people, and talking casually and having a laugh with them.I can talk even politics and debate my way into friendship and better understanding with someone whose ideas are very different than mine: finding common ground.
