We are all in the process of learning to love unconditionally and the adjustments we need to make to achieve this are embedded in the higher aspects of Venus' sign.

Venus in Aries. The affections are expressed ardently and passionately. People with this combination like to be the initiators of romance, but also to maintain their freedom and independence. A good relationship is still possible if the needs of the partner are being met. But in this sign of Venus' detriment, “love” is often expressed immaturely, aggressively and selfishly. In some, love is sex and sensuous gratification. This selfish, conditional way of loving must be reversed.

The goal is to learn to love more wisely, to appreciate the benefits of equal sharing, of cooperation and to value the higher and finer things in life. This will lead to the development of intelligent-love, which when expressed through this sign, results in relationships that are a balance of ardent fire and cooperation. The Aries soul at a leadership level, radiates the power of love to benefit all relationships.

Venus in Taurus. The affections are expressed reliably, slowly, steadily and sensually. People with this combination enjoy physical intimacy and want a solid financial base to life; consequently, there will be contentment if these are provided. So, a partner should be sought who is both sensuous and is a good provider. This is the banking sign and gives talent with handling money. At the lower level, the “bull of desire” rules “love” and relationships founded on this basis will be a battleground.

The task in Taurus, is to love more wisely and in the process, transmute lower desire into higher aspiration. This is achieved by looking for and valuing higher and finer things in oneself, in others and in life. When intelligent-love is being expressed through this sign, it results in beautiful unions that are founded upon a bedrock of loyalty and trust. The Taurus soul creates beautiful art-forms to inspire the world.

Venus in Gemini. With flirtation, fun and playful communication, people with this combination love with their minds - communications are vitally important. But they are easily bored and restless and find it easy to stray. At the lower level, love is superficial, irresponsible, non-committal and ephemeral. There is no depth of true feeling or ability to love intimately. Love remains a thought that can just fade away.

The goal is to love more wisely - with the feelings as well as with the mind. This will balance the energies of the mind and heart, so that greater depth will be given to all unions. When love is expressed intelligently in this way, relationships will be beautiful - mentally and emotionally. The Gemini soul in full bloom is profoundly wise, is a messenger who communicates wisdom to beautify the minds and hearts of all.

Venus in Cancer. These emotional people love sensitively, emotionally and defensively. They place emphasis on family relations and have an emotional need for financial and material security. At the personality level, they are needy, clingy and have many oscillating highs and lows. Fearful of being rejected and emotionally hurt, they can put up walls to protect their hearts. If this persists over time, love will be unable to get through.

The task with this combination, is to develop the intellect and let it take the lead in relationships rather than the emotions. This is because choices made when emotional are usually detrimental to the forming of healthy unions that can withstand the test of time. As the refining light of wisdom permeates the mind, greater sensitivity and appreciation of the value of others will be demonstrated and this in turn will enable beautiful love-unions to be built. The Cancer soul loves to light the way home for the masses.

Venus in Leo. These people love regally and generously. They like to be proud of the partner and are creative in showing their feelings with many grand displays of affection. Being territorial and needing to be in charge, sometimes partners are viewed as possessions - especially at the lower level where love is narcissistic and nceds constant approval, appreciation and adoration. Normally loyal, some with this combination like to gather a lion's-pride of partners.

The task is to learn to love more wisely, to be a partner and friend as well as a leader in the union at some level or other. As the light of inclusive love grows, it will gradually supersede the egocentric focus, benefitting all relationships. Intelligent-love expressed through this sign results in relationships that are a balance of fiery power and sensitivity to the needs of the partner. The Leo soul uses this force to provide intelligent, wise and loving leadership to the world.

Venus in Virgo. Many in this group will want their intimate unions to be perfect and for the partner not only to be a lover, but also to be neat, punctual and to contribute financially. Normally loyal and dutiful, they themselves contribute much materially. But Venus falls in Virgo and this combination belongs to people who potentially use the critical mind to judge partners and relationships. If this impulse is not controlled, then it will kill love like a heavy frost burns and withers spring buds. The real trouble is low self-esteem. At an unconscious level, these people believe they are imperfect, even unlovable. Criticisms of others are in reality, the criticising of one's own short-comings.

The task is to learn to love more wisely, by placing greater value and appreciation on positive qualities and attributes - both one's own and those of others; and on learning to love unconditionally. This will gradually improve the quality of all relationships. The Virgo soul in full expression, is very intelligent, is kind, appreciative and thoughtful and uses these qualities to help and heal the suffering.

Venus in Libra. These flirtatious charmers have a compelling desire to be in a relationship, and want them to be harmonious and peaceful. They are very attentive to the partner and like being “in love.” But at the lower level, “love” is restless and needs excitement and diversions. It becomes a sensual game, with many partners and deceit. Such relationships are unstable and many hearts will be hurt when love is treated like a game and not enough consideration is given to the feelings of others.

The task is to learn to love wisely - as a soul rather than as a personality. In Libra, this means being very considerate of the partner's needs and being just and fair in all matters concerning the union. In simple terms, loving with greater depth and feeling. Intelligent-love expressed in this way will enhance all relationships professional and intimate. The wise and considerate Libra soul has the power to bring opposites into perfect union.

Venus in Scorpio. Sensual, intense and passionate, the sex life will be important (Scorpio rules sex). People with this combination will fight for those they love and to keep them safe. But Venus is in detriment in this sign, which means those with this combination can be possessive, jealous and threatening. They may consider the partner to be a possession and if he or she tries to escape, an enemy to be attacked. These lower traits need to be transmuted.

The task is to learn to love more wisely, and a way to do this is to meditate on all things good and beautiful. This will train the mind to dwell on higher and finer things, rather than be occupied with dark thoughts. As this is donc, gradually, relationships will become more harmonious, reflecting the growing capacity to love as a soul. Intelligent-love expressed in this sign results in relationships that are based on trust and truth. The Scorpio-warrior soul, loves to go into combat on behalf of those who are weak and who suffer.

Venus in Sagittarius. People with this combination love adventurously, freely, with fun and good humour. They move casily through relationships and are attracted to fellow adventurers. At the lower level, love is like a wild untameable horse, which demands freedom and avoids responsibility and commitment. When it wants, it wants all. When it has had enough, it leaves without looking back.

If this is achieved, it will result in unions that are honest and direct and that are built upon a foundation of values and beliefs that are mutually shared - there is often a shared love of spiritual or philosophical teachings with this combination. The Sagittarius soul is very wise and learned and loves to beautify the hearts and minds of others by teaching inspirational philosophies and truths.

Venus in Capricorn. Loving cautiously and responsibly, people with this placement prefer traditional types of relationships - those that form slowly so that they are likely to be more enduring. At the lower level, ambition turns love into a commodity, as barter and a means to gain material benefit. The personality affections are controlled and there is a lack of warmth. Loneliness and rejection await those who walk this way.

The goal is to learn that love and all the benefits that a loving relationship brings, are more important than power and money, which cannot buy the former. A greater appreciation of love and of its value is required. As the mind grasps and appreciates these higher notions - since energy follows thought; gradually, beautiful and mutually fulfilling relationships will be formed. These people will flourish with a partner who can evoke their feelings. The Capricorn soul loves to shoulder heavy responsibilities so that the load of humanity is lightened and the world is beautified.

Venus in Aquarius. This group of people love. intellectually and their partners also need to be good friends. They are open to having unconventional relationships and those where they are free to express their predilections. At the lower level, under the power of the lower mind - separativeness and selfish individualism blights love. Relationships are less important than the desire to experiment, to be free and independent.

The task is to learn to love wisely, which for them means thinking with the heart - to consider the feelings of others before going their individual way. This will bring about a greater appreciation of other people generally and enable more loving and inclusive relationships to form. This in turn, will lead to a greater appreciation of the whole of humanity in all its shades and colours. The Aquarius soul loves to pour out the healing waters of love upon humanity.

Venus in Pisces. The affections are expressed emotionally those with this combination are romantics who yearn for the ideal partner, someone who will come along and sweep them off their feet. At the lower level, they can flow from partner to partner, all the time looking for a deeper spiritual connection. Childlike and avoiding responsibility, dependent upon others; they can play the victim and bind people through guilt.

The task in Pisces is similar to that in Cancer- to develop the intellect and use it to make wiser choices in relationship matters. However, Venus is exalted in Pisces and those who have this combination, find it easy to be kind and compassionate lovers. When this level of loving is accompanied with intelligence and wise action, then unconditional love flows out from them like an ocean to embrace all. The Pisces soul loves to serve humanity; to lift, to heal and save.
