Planets: Venus
Venus is all about pleasure - preferably, the shared type. This Planet influences love, romance and harmony along with partnerships, emotional attachments, marriage and other unions (including business partnerships). Venus is content to spread happiness and tenderness, while teaching us how to love and appreciate other people, our gifts and our possessions.
We are attractive, and attract, thanks to Venus's rays. The ability to connect and relate to others are important to this Planet, as are social affairs and graces.
Beauty is also strongly associated with Venus. The arts (music, dance, drama and literature, to name a few) and a sense of the aesthetic are all within Venus's realm. It's Venus that beseeches us to drink up our world and revel in its beauty. This Planet is inextricably linked with good taste, culture, charm and grace.
The pleasure we derive from our possessions is also part of Venus's domain. Luxuries (jewellery, paintings), good food and drink, a beautiful home and an attendant sense of refinement are all pleasing to Venus. This Planet asks us to appreciate the exquisite nature of things. It's a sensual (not necessarily sexual) world as far as Venus is concerned.
Venus needs 225 days to complete its orbit of the Zodiac; it is never more than 47 degrees from the Sun. It is a feminine energy and rules both Taurus and Libra and the Second and Seventh Houses.
