Venus in this position takes the lead and is quite self-sufficient. Venus is courageous and acting on impulses (often resulting in the possibility of (more) affairs).

Venus is the Evening Star when it rises after the Sun (for example: the Sun is at 12° Aries and Venus is at 6° Taurus).

In this position, Venus in the horoscope is more sensual, less active and more reactive and introvert. You don't jump into love easily and are more hesitant resulting in the possibility of less affairs. Love is lived internally.

The focus is more on creativity.

Robert Hand:

There are two distinctly different Venuses.
All astrological traditions except the modern Western one, and to some extent the Hindu one, recognize this.
There is a warrior Venus and a
love goddess Venus.
They’re both female.
But one of them is more like Athena.
The warrior goddess Venus is Venus as a Morning Star.
Phosphorus Lucifer, although it should be “Lucifera.” There’s nothing satanic about it.
It’s just a warrior goddess.
And the evening one is the soft, squishy love goddess.
They actually have different names.
In Mesopotamia it was Ishtar Akkad and Ishtar Uruk.
One was a Morning Star, the other the Evening Star Venus.
The MesoAmericans recognized this
phenomenon, the Chinese recognized this phenomenon, so did the Mesopotamians, and there are references to it in Greek astrology as well.
If you have a morning Star Venus and it is powerfully placed in your chart and you are a woman, you probably are not as soft and squishy as the modern textbooks would have you believe.
It’s a placement that makes a woman very beautiful, but not in a soft, squishy way.
Sort of Valkyrian — grand, statuesque, strong. So the ancient Venus embodies
two distinctly different types of feminine.
And yet, they are both feminine, which is something we should pay a great deal of attention to in modern astrology

Does parallel mean that the two planets declinations are in the same degree??
