Venus Interpretations

All 24 placements... 12 signs and 12 houses

Venus is the chart's sense of what is worth wanting. It governs love, beauty, pleasure, and value ... what draws a person, what they find lovely, what they will arrange a whole life around. Named for the goddess of love and desire, inherited from Aphrodite, it carries the entire force of attraction, the pull that makes like move toward like. In a birth chart, Venus shows how a person gives and receives affection, what they find beautiful, and their relationship to money, comfort, and the good things of the body. It rules both Taurus and Libra ... beauty that can be touched, and beauty in the space between people.

Venus's expression varies by sign and by house. Select any placement below to read the full interpretation.
