Venus In Sagittarius

Venus finally ends her extended sojourn through the underworld and enters the wide expanse that is the Hunting grounds of Sagittarius. Our desires will be inflamed with the will to explore and be free, quite a step away from the fixity and intensity of Scorpio. People from different cultures, different accents or appearances will appeal to us, especially if we feel they can enlarge our world and help us feel in touch with greater more exotic things.

In Scorpio the love theme is generally about depth and intensity of authentic experience, whereas in Sagittarius, it is about breadth and joy of life's adventure and people with Venus here natally are known for their wanderlust and impulsiveness in matters of the heart. Often this wanderlust is tempered with worldliness and wisdom as the native explores and experiences different types of people and relationships. Eventually in maturity the native will transmute the more reckless elements into a kind of ethic and personal code of conduct although their appetite will always be strong as Jupiter, sag's ruler, loves to have a good time. Venus in Sagittarius (or aspecting Jupiter) loves pleasure in abundance to the point to excess and debauch. More IS better to them!

Dates to watch:

People with sun, moon, Venus or mars in fire signs will experience the warm glance of Venus at some point. Love, friendship and social situations will go unusually well . Be extra careful on Jan 5th, a day after the powerful Capricorn eclipse, when Venus Squares Neptune, the planet of illusion, while Trine Jupiter and Uranus, both planets that have a reputation of Leaping before looking.

The square to Neptune will fog our perceptions making us dreamy and perhaps seeing the world, or a person, with rose-colored glasses. Illusions, being drunk with desire and flights of fantasy are the name of the game when Venus is in a hard aspect to Neptune.

This is all exaggerated with it's Trine to Jupiter/Uranus which will enlarge our desire for freedom, spontaneity and novelty. The feeling of buoyancy and will to action will be strong. Be very careful making promises, buying luxury items or hopping into or breaking out of relationships from Jan 3-5th especially if your birthday is Nov 17-20 or if you know you have other planets at 27-28 Degrees Scorpio.
