Venus in 1st allows one to make a good impression on others...a venusian impression!
As any planet in the first would accentuate the first impression Pluto (intensity), Neptune (dreamy), and so on and so forth...

Libra placements definitely, Moon conj. Venus (Charming), Venus conj. Mars gives what is called IT in terms of sex appeal (kind of certain charm). Uranus conjunct Mars or Venus gives a certain charm as well.

No one has mentioned the holder of the 'charming' moniker of the zodiac yet, which is Gemini, though there was that Libra in the 3rd.

Oh no! Cappies are not associated with charm?
Think Cary Grant!?! Although we have to check his placements...he is one of the reasons why I like classical films.

Leo Rising are charming because they think they are...you know sort of working on universal energy, I am charming and the world adores me, the world eventually does.

Oh you know in the Chinese Zodiac, the three most charming signs are ROOSTER, SNAKE and DRAGON.
Rooster is very flamboyant (all about appearance), Snake is a seducer (both mental and sensual), Dragon is sort of a leader, looks like s/he knows what they are doing.

Sure, anyone could say 'beauty/charm is in the eye of the beholder', but what does that truly mean?

In astrological terms, this saying carries more depth than psychological terms. This is because we all have unique astrological aspects, so something that appears charming to one person can appear less charming to another. The concept delves deeply into the individial make-up we all have, and how others make-up interact with ours in a composed dynamic.

For example, if we were to gather a Sagittarius, Aries and Cancer in the same room.. and then asked them to interact and comment on each others charm - then it may be that the Sagittarius views the Aries boundless and enthusiastic energy as quite charming. Yet the Cancer may see this Aries energy as a little overbearing. This is a very simple example, but if we then consider all the aspects we each have in our natal charts - the oppositions, conjunctions, squares, trines, house positions etc etc - then each of us reacts differently to anothers natal aspects. So charm/beauty IS subjective.

My dad is a Libra, extremely charming guy, if we eat out in a restaurant, my brother and I always say he puts his 'James Bond' voice on in an effort to charm the waitress out of her socks. His own charm lies in his flowing and easy manner, his smile, and his positive approach to adverse situations - hes able to use humour to diffuse sadness, and its very charming to people who know him! But some people see my Dad as a little shallow, his humour isnt seen by them, and hes seen as quite a serious individual. He has Moon conj Pluto/ Pluto conj Mercury in Leo - marking his trademark charm and smooth positive approach. But he also has mars conj saturn in gemini - so if someones natal chart were to create more aspects to this Gemini part of my Dads chart, then they would miss some of his Leo charm, and instead view him as a serious, fickle fellow.

I have another friend who is a Taurus, and girls find him immensely charming in a very earthy way. He doesnt talk intellectually, neither does he look particularly amazing, but hes got this kind of boyish charm, cheeky yet grounded, daring yet comfortable to be around. This friend has a venus/mars conjunction in his chart, this was mentioned above as a possible 'it' factor. However, his charms dont work on everyone - some people mistake his boyish cheeky humour as offensive and rude and hes got into some trouble over it in the past - its even put me in difficult situations when we have been in town on a night out together - a group of guys will misunderstand his well-meant cheekiness and become aggressive, it hasnt been pretty at times, so his charm is a double edged sword for him, it can arouse anger or passion.

I have another friend who is very intellectually charming, his mind fascinates both male and females. Men like talking with him because of his flambouyant ideas and creativeness. And females are fascinated by the depth in him. But at the same time, I also know a few people who look upon him with disdain. They see his intellectualism as unnecssary and threatening, and therefore they look upon this charm as sometimes extremely annoying. This friend has Sun conj Pluto - the depth that others seem in him - but its in opposotion to Jupiter. So his intellectual humour may gain favour or create tension, depending on the angles a person is forming to this sun/pluto/jupiter aspect in his chart.

Many of the aspects mentioned in this thread above are great, they are brilliant indicators of charm - but that charm will not have the same impact on everyone - it depends on the composition of two people charts. Person 'A' could completely overlook Person 'B's charm because Person 'A's own natal aspects do not 'touch' upon the charming aspects in that person 'B''s chart.

I find I'm generally attracted to people who have similar aspects to me. I definitely find them charming.

For instance, I have a Venus/Pluto opposition and a Mars/Pluto sextile. Usually they have either a Venus/Pluto or Mars/Pluto connection.

I also have Venus trine Neptune and Mars conjunct Neptune. They also, usually have a Venus/Mars/Neptune connection. I especially find Neptune connections very charming.
