Venus, as a feminine planet,rules the principle of attraction. It rules the desire for things of refinement and beauty, as well as the things themselves.In addition, the Venus individual has the ability to attract because of beauty and desirability. This is a very definite and real power. It can be more effective than the action of Mars, which causes aggressive personal desires.

As ruler of Taures and the natural second house, Venus attracts money and possesions. As ruler of Libra and the natural seventh house, it attracts people and partners. In both cases, the Venusian principle of attraction is at work.

Venus rules the principle of love, especially in terms of romantic relationships. Consequently, its sign and house position indicate how the individual attracts a romantic partner; important aspects made to Venus and the sign and house positions making these aspects are additional clues.

In a womans horoscope, Venus indicates what a woman is able to give a man. In a mans Horoscope, Venus indicates the type of woman the man would like to attract, but not nessacerily the type of woman he will marry. The seventh house and its ruler must be taken into consideration in determining the propriety and stregnth of a marriage.

The strenth of Venus in the horoscope indicates the extent of an individual's artistic, creative ability and capacity to create beauty and refinement. The sign, house placements, and aspects of Venus in the Horoscope are more specific indicators of the individuals approach to art and beauty.

Venus also affects the ability to understand and empathize with others emotionally. this is due to the exaltation of Venus in Pisces. A weak or afflicted Venus indicates a lack of social refinement, diplomacy and consideration in relating to others.

Venus/Fire the individual actively seeks romantic and social fulfillment. These people show a sence of color and drama in artistic expressions and initiative and leadership in money-making endeavors.

Venus/Earth the individual combines a practically and sensuousness in artistic, financial, social, and romantic affairs. These people demand quality and durability in their personal possesions and artistic creations. They use lovely personal possesions as a means of achieving status and comfort. They often have business ability in matters related to art, music, or social activity.

Venus/Air the individual has a strong sence of social interrelations and a great interest in in the feeling and psychology of others. These individuals seek to establish intellectually stimulating friendships and romantic partnerships, and they usually possess social charm and savior-faire

Venus/Water the individual takes an emotional approach to art, music, social activity and especially, romantic partnerships. These people are able to empathize, sympathize, and exhibit depth of feeling, but they can become emotionally distraught over romantic disappointments and difficulties as a result. Their feelings can be easily hurt by social mistreatment or neglect.

Where is your Venus and what is its most exact aspect?

My Venus is in Scorpio in the tenth house I believe.

but if using other house systems, like Equal or Porphyry, it bumps me into the 8th house.

Well the social charm and savoir-faire comes and goes. I used to be very social, but that all changed when Saturn and Pluto crossed my ascendant. I can be very shy now ~ opening up and then pulling back, which can confuse people. The square from Mars in Pisces influences, and both the air and water Venus signs describe me..

Most exact aspects: Opposition of IV house, conjunction of Midheaven are the most, square between Jupiter in close second, all with orbs of 0.6 or less.

I would think the sun/venus conj. in 10th would have something to do with why I have stubbornly persued a career in art, have a love for music. Tend to approach them with the innocent wonder and determination of a child and the naivite also.

Definately want to persue/be persued in the romance dpt., need a certain amount of control, but once there love with the fierce loyalty and faith of the Aries infant.
