In Roman mythology Venus is the Goddess of love and beauty and she was also associated with fertility, sex and sensuality.

Challenging aspects made to your Venus, such as a square, can show obstacles, challenges and tension when it comes to expressing Venusian qualities. Positive aspects made to Venus, such as a trine, can indicate harmonious, balanced and supportive expressions of Venus.

When interpreting Venus in your own chart it’ll be important to include the aspects made to Venus because these will greatly influence how your Venus is expressed. It will also show the unique challenges, opportunities and experiences connected to your expression of Venus in this life.
