I understand that the house is the area of life the planet plays itself out in, and the sign is the flavor it is given... but how do the elements work in this regard?
planets in houses http://www.horoscopeswithin.com/planetsinhouses.php
Houses/signs are like the backdrop of a stage/theatre, planets in houses behave like actors on a stage, the *aspects* show how these planets/actor behave in a house
planets are modified by signs, where they express are houses and how they express are *aspects*
firstly the Planet is the ACTOR on stage, here to make its prescence felt, the stage is the house/the background, colours theme etc and the aspects ie: how venus is aspected explain how venus will function in this house.
You should always look at which houses venus rules to make the connection... http://www.skyviewzone.com/astrology/houserulerships.htm
So venus in saggi, is *usually* late for settling down, enjoys playing the field first and foremost. It's fire, so its sociable, extrovert, broadminded, likes travel, philosphy, the law --- all Saggi 9th house matters.
Now venus placed in 2nd house of *how you earn your money and spend it* will therefore get pleasure (venus) from earning your own money. could be through 9th house Saggi matters, connected to foreigners OR 2nd house matters like taurus likes, espec property as this gives security in bricks and mortar. Also in 2nd house is self esteem, personal values and beliefs and venus here would get much pleasure from espousing these....
