Venus Square to planets

Venus influences us in different fields of love, affection, art, creativity, and physical beauty. The location of Venus on the map can indicate our love.
Venus is a symbol of love and harmony, and after the moon it represents the feminine principle.

Venus Square to Mars

Your Venus square Mars indicates that you have difficulty in maintaining harmonious relations with people. You are not the easiest person to get along with; you expect others to make concessions to you, but you refuse to make any compromises without being pressured to do so. You have a strong desire nature and use all kinds of clever tactics to get what you want. People may accuse you of using others to gratify your desires by taking advantage of their feelings for you, especially when you don't have similar feelings for them. You greedily assume the privilege of indulging yourself at every opportunity, expecting no interference from anyone.
This planetary combination indicates that you are not really happy with yourself, so you provoke trouble with others in order to blame them for your inability to resolve your personal conflicts. You are indifferent to the feelings of others because you don't really think they are worth it. The problems you have in relationships should cause you to wonder whether you are worth it to them as well. Somewhere there is a solution, and it would certainly help if you toned down your desires and adopted a more compromising attitude. Accept the fact that few people get everything they want, and, when they don't, they turn their attention elsewhere. You cannot force yourself on people and not expect some resentment for it.

Venus Square to Jupiter

The opposition from Venus to Jupiter indicates that you don't trust your competence in dealing with people and circumstances; you are never really sure you can adequately cope with relationships. You are indulgent to others in the hope that they will conform that you are indeed capable. The challenge of constant competition reassures you of your skill in handling even the most demanding problems in your situation. You seek social approval for everything you do, and are upset when it is not forthcoming. Presumptuous in your expect ions of others and somewhat conceited, you alienate even your closest friends by boring them with endless trivia about yourself and your affairs. It is a sign of immaturity if your self-regard depends on the approval you extract from your associates.

Venus Square to Saturn

Here the mother and father present an influence to the individual during his formative years that makes it difficult to develop any sense of self-worth. In order for an androgynous personality to develop - a personality with the masculine and feminine principles in balance - the parents must offer an image that can help build the concept. A feeling of self-worth is created by the constructive union of the masculine and feminine principles. The square aspect indicates that the images are at odds.
Don't anticipate an early marriage unless you are prepared to make enormous concessions to keep it together. Better to postpone a binding partnership until you can be more selective in choosing a mate. If you marry for security it may last, but it will be little more than a corporate merger with little emotional satisfaction. If your upbringing was austere and you saw privation and financial difficulties in your parents' lives, there is even more reason to wait for financial independence before taking a mate.

Venus Square to Uranus

You find it hard to maintain intimate relationships, even when interested in doing so, because part of you is running away from accepting and giving love. Love makes you feel uneasy; you fear that it will inhibit your freedom; and your emotions tend to be repressed to some degree. In extreme cases, the emotions can be almost rigid with inhibition, with a fear of acknowledging and releasing them. Often you experience your affairs or relationships as superficially as possible, enabling you to fly like a butterfly to the next temporary stopping-place. Perseverance is not your strongest asset; and when situations arise requiring self-discipline in order to achieve personal aims, or to maintain a relationship through a difficult phase, you often display that lack of commitment, preferring the excitement of the unknown. You are emotionally fickle, and with that feeling of restless irritation on that level, you may attempt to ignore its presence as much as possible, choosing physical excitement and mental curiosity as your prime directions to follow. As Uranus will distort that feeling nature over time, perverse feelings may begin to form as a kind of twisted inner compensation for an emotional denial. This can lead to unusual and varied sexual behavior, or the desire to experiment.

Venus Square to Neptune

This is often formed by unresolved, un integrated and unconscious factors associated with the influence of Neptune operating through a heightened emotional sensitivity and vulnerability. As the strength of imagination in you is potentially very potent, if it is misused or unrecognized then unconscious inner needs and desires create compulsive motivations formed around private fantasies and perceptual distortions of reality. These inner pressures affect the stability and content of your emotional level, so that one result can be moods and uncertainty regarding the consistency of your feelings. Obviously this will affect your intimate relationships, and can demonstrate its presence in a variety of forms of deception, within yourself and within the love affair. The 'enemy' that you often project 'out there' is hidden within yourself. Those Neptunian patterns of victim, sacrifice and martyr may emerge, either as experienced by you, or as expressed through you onto others, where you exploit any powers of sexual seduction that you possess for self gratification. Sensual preoccupation may appeal to you, yet this could hold the seeds of your own destruction within it, as there is likely to be an addictive tendency operating which is associated with alcohol, drugs and sex. Surrendering to this pattern would be most unwise, and a reflection of an un integrated Neptune.
Learning how to recognize these projections is an essential first step: you realize how you are creating your own experiences, and how unconscious inner influences and motivational patterns are reflected back at you through external experiences. Reabsorbing these and accepting responsibility for them is step two. If this can be achieved to some degree, then energy will be liberated to enable you to access the positive nature of Neptune. You already have a form of idealism, yet this has been badly battered and damaged by the experiences of projection returned to you, so this needs to
be re stimulated and integrated, based on a new self-perspective. The fogs distorting that idealism need to be dispersed, and old unrealistic dreams need to be dropped. A creative potential also lies within you, relatively undisturbed and unexploited, and this too could be successfully awakened into action and expressed in your own unique manner. There is no reason why you cannot take effective action to transform aspects of your life, unless it is through willed inertia and apathy, or because you fail to see that taking control of your life is your responsibility. When real transformation commences - even though it may be hard to generate the initial momentum - then minor or even major miracles occur in the inner life to add their support to the personal efforts being made to change. Life becomes supportive to the degree that it is appreciated and enriched by your personal contribution; what you receive is what you give out into the world. It's a simple message, but one which is often a key to resolving conflicts.

Venus Square to Pluto

This person has a strong desire to prove himself or herself, or to take a firm hold on situations. He or she can appear very forceful. At the same time, he or she conceals personal emotions, because he or she is afraid to let him- or herself go - which would mean losing a grip on things. Without knowing it, this person wears an impersonal, forbidding mask: thinking all the while that he or she is pleasant, friendly and ready to compromise (Venus), he or she is impersonal and off putting. The tense reactions of others puzzle the native, even though he or she is the cause.
Also, this person is inclined to attract difficult or cantankerous people with whom he or she can engage in an unconscious power struggle. He or she is aware that they are trying to get the better of him / her, but unaware that he or she is actually trying to do the same to them. With an in conjunct, this person even makes a show of following the partner's lead and of doing everything the partner wants, but on the tacit understanding that the native is always the center of attention. Alternatively, this person may fall victim to someone who plays this trick on him or her. The aspect often goes hand in hand with confused relationships in which unconscious processes play a part.
However, this person can be an outstanding marriage guidance (or similar) counselor, once he or she has penetrated to the core of the personal problem. An insight into what causes this behavior can make him a good adviser to those with similar problems, for he knows the tensions and difficulties all too well.
