Venus Conjunct Mars
Passion and tenderness are fused into one force: you live your feelings vividly, draw people in easily and are drawn yourself. Desire and love go hand in hand with you.
In the Birth Chart
Attraction and action come together in you. You can't love by halves: if you like something, you go for it at once and openly. Your magnetism is plain to those around you, and people find you warm and interesting. Your taste is bold and creative, and you prefer pleasures that are lively and active. There is not much gap between what you want and what you do. This gives you courage in love and creativity, but sometimes makes you impatient: waiting for a feeling to ripen can be hard.
Relationships
You are a passionate, open partner who makes the first move. In relationships you need a spark, physical closeness, shared activity. A dull, sluggish connection fades fast. Sometimes you confuse infatuation with strong desire, so it helps to give a relationship time before making serious decisions. A partner is seldom bored beside you.
Work and Money
Creative and active fields suit you: design, fashion, dance, sport, sales, performing arts, client work. You can infect others with enthusiasm and promote what you love. Money comes when the work gives you pleasure, and leaves just as fast if you spend by mood.
Strengths
- Natural magnetism and an easy way of winning people's sympathy
- Courage in showing feelings and readiness to make the first move
- Creative energy that joins fine taste with active doing
Pitfalls
- Impulsive crushes that flare up fast and die down just as fast
- Jealousy and a short temper when desires get no answer
- Spending on pleasures at the push of a moment's impulse or mood
How to Work With It
Direct your passion not only into love but into creativity, sport, dance, any activity where body and feeling work together. In relationships, give yourself time to tell whether it is love or just a rush. Agree with your partner on what excites you both. Before a big purchase, wait a day: if the wish remains, it is real.
