Am I Oversexed?
By amiann | Published: February 10, 2013 |

I get this question from mainly woman, but some men. The question is not, usually, posed so succinctly, but I know what they mean and it is, “Am I oversexed?” There is some sanity in breaking things down to their lowest common denominator. When I get this question, I will see a Venus in Scorpio. If not, I will see what acts like a Venus in Scorpio, which is any Venus conjunct Pluto. Sometimes, a Venus in the 8th house will ask me this question, too. These last two Venus’ are, virtually, a Venus in Scorpio, as they act like one. For purposes of this discussion, we will refer to everything as a Venus in Scorpio.

Let’s talk about planets in their Detriment or Fall. Even for a beginner, you can check this. You can Google this, or I will put a chart up, if people want. Anyway, Venus is in it’s Detriment in Scorpio. Venus is it’s Home( Domicile) in Taurus and Libra. It is in it’s Detriment in Aries, too. Venus is Exalted in Pisces, so is it’s it’s Fall in Virgo. I am going to do an article on Venus in Virgo because that presents a whole different set of problems, from Venus in Scorpio.

Back to Venus in Scorpio, which is our subject, at hand. Scorpio is the most passionate and most intense sign of the Zodiac. Mars loves Scorpio, as he is a hunter and seducer, in the highest degree. Even woman with Mars in Scorpio are go-getters. They will go after a man or a job, with a hunter’s prowess. Mars in Scorpio is a magical placement. If you have it, the gods shined down on you. Venus is another story, though. Venus is a yin planet. Yin things are passive and receptive. Think of an old fashioned lady, at a ball. She waits for the man to sign her dance card. She holds herself, demurely. She does not fling herself across the room, at any man who catches her eye. She has exquisite manners and functions in her role of a lady. Venus in Scorpio will not feel comfortable in these arenas. She will have too much passion to stay in the corset, which was the costume of ladies of old. She will want to fling the corset off, in an act of rebellion because the corset is just too darn tight. The whole room would stare at her, as she slunk to the back, embarrassed and humiliated.

Of course, a Venus in Scorpio is not destined to act this way, but she wants to. That is the thing. These desires are strong in her, due to the Scorpio placement. There seems to be no way to really tell her she is OK. You may tell her, but you know she is brushing you aside. My conclusion is that a planet in it’s Detriment is forever uncomfortable. I have Mars in it’s Fall and I forever struggle with assertion and anger. It is classic to Mars in Cancer, as is feeling too passionate for Venus in Scorpio.

Check your chart for planets in the Detriment and Fall and write to me about your experiences.

People get very sensitive about their placements, which I understand and that is cool, as long as it is said, respectfully.

Everything in the chart matters but I look at asteroids more when they touch pivotal parts of your chart or in synastry

Both occupy H3, although I don't yet understand how the houses interact with the placements. 3H is about learning, community and communication, I think?

I love your name
Well, I just did an article on House. I have to put my article up about signs. Astrology is COMBINING these. It sounds easy but one must learn the language first and the signs and houses are the language. If you persist, you will get it. Don't be afraid to bug people with questions. I was the worst at this lol

For you, Venus in Scorpio makes you super intense when you are in love. Mars in libra makes you indecisive in action.

The 3rd house would make communication VERY important to you. When in love, you need to talk and communicate. You engage that way.

Mars there amps up how important communication is to you. Do you do well with geminis as friends?

Indeed.

My partner is a Capricorn BUT he has his Moon in Gemini.

One of my best boyfriends (my first "love", dated him for a little more than a year) was a Gemini. We're still buddies (15 years later!) and still antagonize each other like brother/sister.

My son has Mercury, Venus, Jupiter & Saturn in Gemini.

My daughter has Venus & Mars in Gemini.

I realize this is silly, but my parakeet is a Gemini too (and she acts like it).

My Kaali is conjunct Lilith in my 1st also, I just met a guy who scorpio Venus falls on this conjunction...it squares his aqua mars, I'm wondering what the effect of this might be?
