Of the Planet Venus

Venus: goddess of beauty, harmony, and desire

Venus adorns the nativity with harmony, elegance, music, and the power to enchant

Venus: The Lesser Benefic

Venus, ruler of the signs Libra and Taurus, in her chariot. Maarten de Vos, 1585.

Beauty, pleasure, and love: the incarnation of the Greco-Roman goddess of love, Venus, the Lesser Benefic brings joy to the life of the native if well-placed, and over-indulgence if ill-aligned.
