Planets in signs and houses
Venus in Scorpio
Tropical zodiac, Western astrology
You love intensely, deeply and with your whole heart. Casual affairs do not interest you; you want unconditional sincerity and commit to those who have proven themselves. Your attraction has a magnetic, mysterious force. The challenge is possessiveness, suspicion and testing your partner's love. Reveal your vulnerability gradually and let trust grow at its own pace. Your deepest love will not need control to hold it up.
Venus in a birth chart
Venus is the planet of attraction and value. It describes what and whom you love, how you give and receive affection, what you find beautiful and what you consider worth having. It also shows how you create harmony and how you handle pleasure and money in a gentle, non-technical sense.
Scorpio at a glance
- Element
- Water
- Modality
- Fixed
Scorpio is fixed water. Mars is its traditional ruler and Pluto its modern one, a pairing that suits a Sun with great force running below the surface. You tend to be private, perceptive and drawn to what lies beneath appearances: motives, secrets, hidden causes. Shallow talk bores you, and you would rather go deep with a few people and topics. Crises that scatter others often bring out your most focused, resourceful self.
