Any person's planet conjunct another person's South node (the past) indicates that the planetary person may hold the South node person back in life in some way, usually indicated by the planet which conjuncts the South node. With your Venus (relationships) conjunct their South node, your relationship to them could hold them back in some way.

I think it is actually just the opposite...relationships (Venus) are TOO easy for this person. Relationships become a way of being comfortable "where they are" (South node) rather than in trying to develop themselves (North node). However, even when this person works at developing their future goals (North node) they will STILL have a strong interest in relationships, for we can never ignore South node connections, but they will feel that they have to move BEYOND relationships in order to develop themselves.

This is different from someone who simply doesn't like relationships at all. I think combinations of Libra/Venus/7th house (relationships) with Aquarius/Uranus/11th house (friends, also rebellion or close but not TOO close) indicate the need for freedom in a person. In order to have the extreme result (avoid relationships entirely) there most likely would have to be a highly traumatic event which occurred in the person's life which "taught" them that all relationships were dangerous. Most likely this event happened early in their life, in order to leave such a strong, unchanging impression about others.

The Uranus example you give is something a little different. Uranus conjunct (energy is combined with) IC (inner world) indicates someone who is strongly rebellious inwardly or maybe rebels against who they are inwardly. This combination is about an INNER focus, not an OTHERS (such as a relationship) focus.

Lioneye puts it well: South node connections connect us in where we "feel comfortable"...but may not challenge us to do the things where we are NOT comfortable (such as, in lioneye's example, self-development).

Agreeing,

My Pluto sextile his North Node

My Moon square his North Node

My Venus square his North Node

My Neptune trine his North Node

My North Node trine his sun

His North Node square my Chiron

My north node is Cancer. his is Leo.

These all indicate "helping" connections to his future goals. Unlike the conjunction (energy is combined with) North node (future goals), aspects such as trines, sextiles, or squares to the North node form aspect patterns which focus on the "linking" planet. This planet's energy can be used as a way to move FROM the South node (the past) TO the North node (future goals).

Moving into the future,
