Home Planets in Astrology Venus

Venus

The Most Refined

Venus is associated with pleasure, love and romance. It brings in harmony into friendships and marriages, helps to socialize, form strong emotional bonds and build stable relationships, from romantic to professional.

Venus’ influence is totally positive, inspiring happiness and tenderness, teaching people to love, appreciate, and be grateful for everything they have. Venus’ energy makes people feel attractive and see the beauty in others. Various fine and performing arts also fall in the sphere of Venus’ aesthetic influence. The graceful planet makes us find pleasure in material possessions like luxuries, gourmet food and drinks, exquisite interiors, etc. It teaches us to understand refinement, use culture and see the sensual – though not necessarily sexual – component in the complex nature of everything.

Venus never moves more than 47 degrees away from the Sun, this is why it takes the planet of love 225 days to circumnavigate through every sign of the Zodiac. Venus emanates feminine energy, but manages to rule two signs (Taurus and Libra) and houses (the Second and the Seventh).
