Venus in Libra

Venus, the Goddess of love, money, beauty, pleasure, and long-term commitments moves into Libra today giving us a bit of a break as she steps into her place of power. Venus rules over both Taurus and Libra. While in Taurus, Venus is more money and “building” focused, while in Libra she is more consumed with love and finding peace and balance in all we do. While in her place of power, she is very charming, flirty, highly social, and beams with a beauty that shines very bright.

Although her main goal and focus is love and relationships, she remains very cool and detached in her quest to secure long-term relationships. She is evaluating her current positions in life in both love and money, and is truly breaking down what it is that brings her life joy and value. She is willing to compromise and negotiate more fairly under the Libra energy because her ideas of love become a bit more realistic to her compared to some of the imaginary ideals she often gets swept away in.

Heartfelt conversations will be much more easier to have as we want to establish fairness, peace, and balance in our exchanges. We are much more soft spoken and friendly while Venus is in Libra, but because we have other planetary aspects at play, we may just find ourselves having imaginary conversation in our head first.

There’s a lot of topics and themes for us to sort through. We are working on our own self worth due to our relationships showing us where we need to level ourselves up in the self confidence department.

All of the heavy hitting planets are all in retrograde right now showing us where we’ve been trying to hold onto old past patterns and behaviours. But the new energy of Uranus now retrograde (the great awakener) wants us to wake up and see where we need to monitor how we share our energy with others.

Venus in Libra will cover all the bases of worth and value within ourselves, our relationships and our money matters. There will be all kinds of new revelations that will change the course of how we value ourselves and those we choose to share our lives with.

Avoid being overly aggressive under this influence as peace and harmony are the ultimate goals. Be aware of any relationships where dependency is an issue and watch out for consciously avoiding unpleasant conversations or situations. We have a tendency to gloss over some serious issues in our relationships all in attempt to not rock the boat. Venus’ main objective is to restore balance to her life, and doing so will create a space for her to relax and truly embrace the love she has for herself and for those she loves.
