Venus

Rules Libra and Taurus

Venus has a variable cycle - sometimes taking up to five months to travel through one sign. Its energy is more balanced than that of Mercury, casting slow, harmonious waves, and it is thought to control all that we value in life whether that be ideals, relationships, works of art, or money.

Ruling both Taurus and Libra, we see the sensual and lustful side of Venus through Taurus, whilst Libra shows a more civilized side - yearning for loving connections with others through teamwork, social encounters, and fair play. Venus is a lucky energy, bringing us the nice things in life.

Venusian people are sociable and friendly, love social pursuits and artistic environments, and need others to feel balanced and completed. An excess can result in superficiality and promiscuity.
