Venus/Saturn and Chiron contacts sometimes manifest that way, too.

Actually, maybe any affliction to Venus could lead to that..

I have Venus conjunct Chiron, Vertex, and talent in my 8th house opposite Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus.

I think it's Venus Chiron/Venus Saturn like Doux said. My best friend has Venus/Saturn and is the same way. We also both have Moon/Pluto/Mercury fixed tsquares. (I also have one with my sun) Mercury and the Sun rule her and my sun signs, respectively.

Physical appearance is a Libran thing. To be well-received by others and to be liked, appreciated and “praised” by others is very much a Libran thing.

But this goes much further than physical looks because, unless the Sun is un-aspected or has aspects (conjunction, square or opposition) to Pluto or Mars, most Librans I have come to meet wear their looks like an accessory than a definition of what they are.

On average, the Libran personality is balanced and fair, well-rounded and complimentary to any company they keep (well at least on the surface). This is why most attract others so easily; they just seem so “nice”.

Obsession or pre-occupation, however, is more leaning towards Virgo: The attainment of an elusive standard is more of a Virgo-related trait.

Not to say that all Virgos are perfectionists, but-unless there is Neptune, Jupiter, Mars conjunction, square or opposition aspect to the Virgo concerned-there is a deliberate focus and particular method that one employs in conducting one’s personal affairs(image or work-related): There is a standard that must be met.

My guess is Sun/ Moon in Virgo, Venus in Virgo, Mars in Virgo and Pluto in Virgo can be obsessive placements.

I don't have Venus/Saturn, Venus/Chiron aspects or anything Virgo.

I do have 10H Venus trine Neptune, opposite Pluto, conj. Madhatter, and conj. North Node Taurus.

I always make myself as pretty as I can whenever I go out. I revel in knowing that I was seen as being attractive. Some people think I am, but some don't. There are times when others make me feel like, "Hey, you're not as beautiful as you think you are. Get over it."
My self-esteem instantly goes down at that. Sometimes I'd just look at the mirror and say, "Okay, even if I'm not as beautiful as I think I am, at least I'm not ugly. I should be content with that."
err..but who am I convincing?lol. It makes me really sad. I always wish I was more beautiful...

I attracted men with similar aspects too like Venus/Mars, Venus/Pluto, and Venus/Neptune. And I'm glad coz these men are very attractive. I believe that I would marry an attractive man. Physical appearance, along with personality is part of the package. Even if a guy is rich, but he's unattractive then no, he doesn't have a chance.

Do you think I'm too shallow for being like this? :-/

I like to look good, I mean who DOESN'T like to look good? Whether the person likes wearing make up or not, looking good is basically what most women would want, right?

An obsession is a 24 hours preoccupation on a fixed thing. The person identifies with a certain image and doesn't want ANYTHING to happen to that image because THAT image is who they are. Any deviation from the image is an unwelcome intrusion.

I can have a mini obsession from time to time.That would be....FOOD..lol. Am an emotional eater..but am far far from being obsessed with my appearance.

Do most people do that haha?

Well, based on the women I know...NO. They don't do anything AT ALL to 'prettify' themselves. I can't believe there'd be women who wouldn't want to look good.

I think what is more attractive/sexy is how someone holds themselves.
Not the length of their nose or the size of your thighs.

I've dated people far far more attractive than me, and I think its because they were drawn to the way I hold myself. Im sure If I moved to LA i could hook up with all those sleazy hollywood types.
I think it's about being in control of yourself and not letting your appearance control you

And here with Venus at the heighest point in the chart, it's only natural for you to want to be seen as beautiful and attractive.

I don't think it's shallow for you to want to be beautiful or to find a handsome partner. I mean, who'd want to be with someone they consider average or "ugly"? Personally, if I find someone attractive, it doesn't really matter if they're not that good-looking.
The most important thing is to like them just the way they are.

Yeah, I've read that too and apparently I'm 'more Venusian than Plutonian'. Until now I'm still figuring out how to balance this. Someone said to act like I have the conjunction. I was like, "Lol. How will I do that?" -_-
I've also read about Venus/Neptune having narcissistic preoccupation with their own image/appearance--which is true in my case obviously

So, it's confirmed. I'm obsessed.

Sure, I'd really want to know what else in my chart would cause this.

I've actually never met a person in real life who didn't have flaws and I live in california ahahha.

Unless you're disfigured theres no reason to complain, I'm actually watching doctor phil special about a woman who was shot in the face. You should be blessed to even have a chin and a lower jaw. Just puts things in perspective

Thanks, Kerosene. I need someone to tell me that.

I know how much confidence is important. I should be thankful with what I have. I am attractive. I know that. But I feel like I constantly need to be reassured that I am. I want other people to say that I am. If you know me, then you'd know how easy it is to offend or hurt me.
