Venus transiting the houses

Venus in 1st house

As Venus crosses your ascendant and enters your first house you slowly become rejuvenated with happiness and a light hearted feeling which hasn’t been felt for a while. Venus’ transit through your twelfth house can be a bitch sometimes and these difficulties were produced for reasons that are about to be revealed. The twelfth house is filled with unseen enemies and as well as unknown allies. Over the next few weeks would be a great time to deal with those who make your life more difficult. The garbage you dealt with over the last month was similar to the caterpillar going into a cocoon. Your ascendant marks the point when the butterfly emerges and you’re beginning to realize your new wings. As Venus progresses and the other planets follow suit, you become more aware of yourself and how all your relationships fit into your life. The first house is a very ego driven area of your chart. When it comes to individuality Venus is more concerned with material possessions and beauty rather than philosophy and education. While Venus is positioned here you become much more passive and your egotistical aggressions are low. That is unless you have negatively afflicted planets positioned here natally. No matter what house Venus is progressing through, when she makes a conjunction to one of your planets you can expect something to happen. Most times this event goes completely unnoticed and is usually pretty small. Venus will need energies from elsewhere to trigger something major. Romantically, this can be a month when you finally become involved with someone you have been crushing on, or someone you already know just haven’t had the proper situation to make a move. Most times this isn’t an indicator of a relationship started with someone you don’t already know. If you do have an interest in your eye now is when you should make you move. In the case you have been hiding a relationship with someone it may be brought into the public’s eye. Per chance you’re engaging in an extra marital affair you may get caught and exposed to your lover for this transit. One of the main goals of this progression is to break away whatever shell you placed around yourself during the 12th house transit. If you shunned people away then now is when they will start to come back into your life, provided you didn’t sever ties over the previous weeks. Generally speaking this is a time when the attention you get from others isn’t as important as the attention you give them.   

Venus in 2nd house

The powers of Venus attract money, possessions, as well as fortunate opportunities. While the planet of love is progressing through her ruling house the following few weeks can be very dramatic. From a monetary standpoint if you are attentive and spend your money responsibly this can be a wonderful time for you. Unfortunately Venus isn’t well known for being practical or reasonable and this, in turn, can cause you to be overly extravagant and self-indulgent. Whether it be jewelry, clothing, or items to beautify your home you’re not too inclined to hold back when spoiling yourself. It’s also more probable than not that you overspend entertaining yourself with your friends. Proper money management now will reap further benefits later when you can maintain your composure during this time. This transit can have extremely differentiating outcomes, most of which should be positive.One of the most fortunate happenings during this transit will be the important and sometimes very influential people you encounter. For some reason you will attract someone that will allow you to advance your career or potential educational opportunities. A reason for this is due to your heightened desires for social contacts. If you have planets placed here natally this will be an especially important time. The conditions of the Moon and Sun will be the indicators of just how the exact conjunction will affect you. In relationship matters this is a time of great importance. The second/eighth house polarity has a direct influence on the possessions you hold jointly, the eighth house, and the possessions you hold individually, the second house. If Jupiter is lined up positively with Venus during this time consider buying a home, car, or other long term purchases. Although it’s a great time to acquire things you wish to keep, refrain from and monumental projects for profit. Chances are you will want to keep whatever it is you end up buying.

Venus in 3rd house

Venus progression through your third house brings all your relationships into your immediate surroundings. The tempo of your life seems to accelerate for a few weeks, and sometimes feels overwhelming. Whether it be romantic, plutonic, or professional all the emotional contacts you have with everyday people will have a more significant impact on your emotional state. Lots of your activities will include groups of friends and family members you don’t normally socialize with. Relationships with siblings and cousins will be especially affected by this as well. If there are any negativities involving your relatives the conflicts will be necessary for you to put the issue aside and strengthen the bond. Unfortunately this can sometimes mean the ending of a friendship as well. Venus usually produces positivity, but sometimes it will be hard to see. Many times this has a psychologically altering experience where you feel the love and caringness of your family. Sometimes this change manifests itself as nothing more than a mere recognition of the abundance of joy surrounding you.

Venus in 4th house

Venus in your fourth house affects the personal relationships you hold closest to you. The fourth house is rooted in your home life and early childhood upbringing. Different from your third house transit when you wanted to expand the relationships you have with casual acquaintances now is the time to set your roots and improve your immediate family. For women this can indicate a time when you conceive a child, for men this may indicate when your child will be born. Regardless of your gender this will be an overly emotional time for you, even if you don’t realize it. Especially influenced during this time will be your relationship with your mother. During the Moon’s much shorter transit through this house your emotions towards her will be stronger than ever. If you have an estranged relationship then this passing will be most difficult. Although it’s entirely possible that the uncomfortable feelings you experience during this are to draw previously repressed emotions to the surface. The subconscious effects of this are mostly unrecognizable causing you to act in ways that are odd for you.

If your family is distant from you the subtle loneliness here can cause depression and reclusiveness. Make sure not to wall yourself away and hide from the real world now. Venus transits alone aren’t usually strong enough to produce something by themselves. A knowledgeable astrologist will be needed to analyze the rest of the planets circling around us. If Mars or Saturn are negatively involved during this time you may experience a significant physical or financial set back. If positively aspected this can indicate a new home or pleasant addition to your current one. Remember if this isn’t a happy transit for you when Venus reaches the fifth house your spirits and enthusiasm will eventually return.

Venus in 5th house

Exceptionally different from your fourth house transit, this progression of Venus this transit is all about fun, entertainment, and socializing with others. You’re shedding the shell you built while Venus was in your fourth house and the natural jubilation will show in your personality. As Venus crosses the cusp from the fourth to fifth houses you may become more overly emotional than usual. Ignoring the feelings which arouse over the last month will reach a boiling point and surface themselves in dramatic fashion. Your emotional explosion will cause rifts between you and your closest relatives and it would be best to deal with these as they arise. Be cautious with every decision you make as your self-discipline is at an all-time low for a bit. Once you get going it will be nearly impossible for you to stop and the ensuing consequences may be dramatic. The fifth house is directly related to self-expression and attention. If you have planets positioned here natally, especially Venus or Jupiter, this can be an extremely lucky transit for you, emotionally and monetarily. Not only is this a time of recreation it’s also a time when the re-creation of yourselves is brought into focus. The relationship you have with your children or youngsters around you will be prominent during this month or so. Many times we vicariously express ourselves through our offspring and this progression will intensify the bond. This transit alone isn’t an indicator or a pregnancy or birth of a child, but if other planets are involved it most definitely can. Most times it is just an indicator of the good times to come. If you want to take a family vacation now would be a great time to do so. Stay away from the overly lavish and expensive forms of entertainment, remember the lacking self-control. Vacations are often costly and you should analyze your resources before making any concrete decisions.

Venus in 6th house

Venus has some issues when transiting your sixth house. The planet of love passionately desires attention and personal gratification and the self denying qualities doesn’t mesh well with the lesser benefic. Especially as Venus progresses over the cusp between the fifth and sixth the desire for fun and games must take a back seat to the needs of others. This may come in the form of an illness or injury to someone you must care for. Other times, this may indicate a relative falling on hard times and relying on you for support, either monetarily or emotionally. The tensions you experience with others in your life is generally produced by agreements where both parties are unclear of their duties. Make sure to discuss their motives as well as yours before entering into any substantial contracts or agreements. No matter how hard you try to avoid it you are unconsciously analyzing all the relationships in your life. What you should be contemplating is the effectiveness and efficiency of your relationships.  Any bonds that have outgrown their usefulness will break down and eventually fade away.On a personal level, now is the time to work on your own health and well-being. Most people are fat and lazy these days, ignoring the signs of deteriorating physical abilities. Even a basic walking routine will be productive and probably more necessary then admitted. Although with the inconsistency of Venus chances are you will give up whatever you start shortly after beginning. If there are slower moving planets transiting this house as well it may indicate a medical procedure or severe injury. Don’t be too frightened about getting hurt though, it will take a lot more than a miniscule Venus transit to produce something like this. This is the culmination of Venus’s progression through the northern hemisphere of your chart, houses 1-6, which is the personal encounters you experience as an individual as opposed to the southern hemisphere, houses 7-12,  which are related to the public and how you interact with society.

Venus In 7th house

Along with the second house Venus is the ruler of the seventh house and this progression is one of the most pleasant and happiest times of the year for you. Your relationships with friends, coworkers, love affairs, and even enemies are going to be running smoother than usual. This because your ego is more tuned into the needs of those around you and your personality reflects the tender and more compassionate traits. In marriage or any committed relationship you’re going to be able to express your ideas and feelings clearly and to the point. If you’re not involved with anyone this spark can indicate a new love flirting into your life. Be careful though, Venus falls in love with love easily and you may be delusional about your current fancy. If Neptune is involved refrain from any long term commitments and negotiations as your thinking is relatively unclear at this time. The only long term commitment you should consider making is getting married, but only if you had planned it earlier.Here in the seventh house Venus is preparing to present herself to the public and is craving attention. Not always in a demanding way though, much of the praise attained is through the service of other people. The interaction between you and someone in need fills an indescribable void within you. Perchance you are having tensions in a relationship the next few weeks is a good time to make peace. Your natural aggressions and hostilities are in a lull during this transit, and you’re not interested in arguing as much. Even those whose intentions are counteractive to yours will seem less annoying. Along with domestic disputes this is an excellent time to resolve legal disputes as well, especially settling out of court.

Venus in 8th house

Venus transiting your eighth house can have very subtle yet still intense effects. This progression will stimulate your sexual desires as not only physical gratification but spiritual fulfillment as well. Any relationships, romantic or otherwise, will have a profound influence on your life throughout its duration. Whether positive or negative the bonds you form over the next few weeks will hit you emotionally although you may not know why. The eighth house is one of the three houses rooted deeply in your subconscious and your emotions. When the relationship oriented Venus passes here she doesn’t always handle the intense emotions. Quite often you will become possessive about your loved ones and may feel rejected if your partner doesn’t recognize you as much as you would like. Unfortunately, the eighth house is the darkest, seediest, and most secretive house in your chart. Death, destruction, and sex are also ruled by this house. Consequently all these things may make their way into your life.Remember sometimes death isn’t the literal death most people fear. Sometimes this can just be the termination of a long standing relationship or friendship. It may also mean that your professional career takes a downturn for the time being. Don’t fret yourself away by this positioning. In order for something monumental to occur outside forces will be needed. Opposite your second house which rules your individual possessions this house relates to the joint assets you share with others. Sometimes this means your partner has a monetary gain through lawsuits, inheritance, or gambling winnings. Along with the seventh house the eighth acts like a bridge between your personal life and the persona you display towards the public.

Venus in the 9th house

The ninth house for Venus is usually a very enjoyable time and you should look forward to the next few weeks. Quite often this is a time where you experience a spiritual or religiously enlightening experience through a friend or loved one. Keep your eyes and mind open because chances are a complete stranger is coming into your life to teach you a lesson. This transit also makes you extremely social and you have and your desire to get out and experience all life has to offer is at its fullest. If you’re planning a long vacation to a foreign country this is an opportune time to do so. Time your trip when Venus and Jupiter are aligned for the most positive energies. This is one of the progressions that increases the tempo of your life. If you have planets positioned here natally this can be an extremely lucky transit where speculative endeavors finally bear fruits. Depression is a horrible characteristic of the eighth house and if you suffered from this during the previous weeks you can start breathing easier. Life is a constant up and down cycle and Venus progression through your ninth house usually sparks an up slide. Romantically, this placement will need other influences to indicate the beginning of a long lasting relationship. Because this is a fire house ruled by Sagittarius, Venus can be rash and hasty in her decision making causing you to enter into something too quickly and end in heartbreak. This may also show the relationship you do develop is with someone from a completely different background, or even a different country. Professionally, this is the best time to begin planning a new job, or expanding your current business. Remember to execute your plans carefully and cautiously to ensure the best results. As you look into the future your life is expanding by your public contacts and connections. You may seek advancements in your education or specialized training as well. The ninth house represents many things including higher philosophy, spirituality, and education, making all these part of your life much more prominent. As the Sun, Moon, and other planets form their alignments to Venus they change your life dramatically and in three months you won’t be nearly the same person.

Venus in 10th house

Venus transiting your tenth house stimulates your natural ability to attract powerful individuals and place yourself in favorable circumstances to advance your career. Over the next few weeks it will be easy for you to work with others and in groups of people. You’re exuding positive energies and everyone’s unconscious sensors are picking this up. Regardless if you’re a trained professional or just a basic grunt employee the purpose of this transit is to align your personal ego with the individuals around you who can help you grow and attain success. Granted this progression doesn’t usually indicate the changing of jobs or even a promotion, if you simply redecorate your workspace or become closer friends with coworkers you will be displaying the effects of this. As the Sun, Moon, and other planets make their alignments with Venus during this time, expect problems or arguments to be more on display to the public. Sometimes this can indicate a major fight between you and your partner away from your home.

Expectations you place on your loved ones will probably be too high to attain. You may think that your partner is the grandest persona out there and you want to spend the rest of your life with them. This may be true but there needs to be stronger influences elsewhere to create something stronger than a fantasy. The negative side may bring out a public argument between you and your partner. Or a major fight between your friends in which you are inadvertently caught up in. If you do start a relationship with someone during this transit chances are it will be with someone older or more responsible who acts as a mentor for you. In a fanciful sense this can show you developing feelings for your boss or fellow superior. Remember that Venus transits are generally fleeting and although very personal they require energy from other sources mainly the Sun and Mars. The beginning degree of your tenth house is known as the midheaven and is the highest form of ego expression. If you’re planning a wedding consider the conjunction of Venus to your midheaven for the date, or the day you announce it to the public.

Venus in 11th house

Different from your tenth house transit when Venus was influencing the relationships in your profession the eleventh house progression affects the people and groups you socialize with. For the most part your ego is low and you’re not so dead set in getting your way. Over the next few weeks you will be unusually agreeable and not so argumentative. That is if you don’t have more major transits screwing everything up. In general Venus transits are experienced quickly and are rather unrecognizable. Most often this produces an easy going nature where tensions don’t bother you as much. This doesn’t mean that your life will be a pink cloud raining gumdrops, but for the most part expect pleasantries. Like every transit this has a negative side as well. If you have been having issues with someone when Sun, Moon, or Mars, squares up with Venus you can expect to hash it out. The reason for issues like these are to weed out old contacts that are no longer useful. If you don’t get out and socialize the effects can be quite negative as well. Whether we admit it or not humans need interaction with one another and if you isolate yourself during this depression will probably set in. Save the sadness for when Venus makes it into your twelfth house. Some of the effects of this transit will be seen in the heightened activities in the groups you associate with. You may have a friend get married, become engaged, or possibly have a baby over this month or so. If you are the extravagant and highly social type now would be a great time to host a party or social gathering. Refrain from having it in your own home though. The friendliness you exude sometimes confuses acquaintances into thinking they are close friends. One of the major malfunctions of Venus transiting this house is the people you don’t want in your life are also brought into your attention for the time being. As Venus approaches the cusp between this house and the twelfth you may see a rise in your so-called “hidden enemies.” Although it is still a little time away Venus can sense the approaching conjunction with your ascendant in a few weeks and is getting excited. But first you will have some soul searching to do during your twelfth and final house transit.

Venus in 12th house

This is the last and final house transit for Venus. No, this doesn’t mean you’re going to die when Venus crosses your ascendant, she has just completed her cycle through your natal chart and is about to start again. Unfortunately, this is the winding down period from the excitement produced by the tenth and eleventh house transits over the last few months. Although the twelfth house is one of the most difficult progressions for planets, the light hearted Venus isn’t nearly as bad as most. In fact, it is usually the easiest to handle. In the forefront of this progression is the complete and total selflessness you display to your loved ones. Sometimes you may turn into a doormat for your friends and vulnerable to deceit from strangers. Your heightened sensitivity to those around you causes you to think you and only you can help them. Be cautious not to become a pawn in someone else’s game. These effects don’t produce instant gratification with the results being seen down the road. If you have planets positioned here natally you can expect to feel the energies as Venus aligns by conjunction. One of the most troublesome effects of this progression is the unseen enemies experienced during this. There may be some unknown force that is seemingly holding you back and restricting your progress. Quite often you will have to deal with a problematic jack ass you just can’t seem to rid yourself of. This jackass may not be an individual person but a bad habit or addiction that flares up again. The twelfth house is deeply rooted in the most secretive sections of your subconscious mind and when the Moon makes its monthly transit here you may experience vivid dreams or severe emotional swings. This is a mildly depressing time, all twelfth house transits produce these feelings of insecurity. Just remember that Venus influences a small portion of your chart and the alignments formed with other planets greatly changes her mood. Pay special attention to Mars and Saturn during this time. Those two Malefics will affect poor Venus significantly. If you are involved in an illicit affair this transit will probably bring it into the open.
