Natural Chart / Whole Houses 

Venus in Taurus (General)

Venus (I love) in Taurus (I have) translate to I love to have. The house where Taurus falls in your chart will give an indication of exactly what it is you love to have. For instance, Taurus falls in the second house in the natural chart and so, generally speaking, people love to have nice things, things that are beautiful, things that are of value (such as beautiful works of art, or simply money itself).

How Venus in Taurus Affects You

A planet, such as Venus, describes a specific type of energy. In the case of Venus it is the energy of love. The sign that it occupies indicates how that energy manifests and the house that that sign falls in your natal chart will give an indication of the area of life that will be affected.   

In order to determine the house that Mars in Taurus is transiting you look at your birth chart and determine what house aligns with Taurus. For example. 

• If your rising sign is Aries, Taurus is your 2nd House. 
• If your rising sign is Taurus, Taurus is your 1st House. 
• If your rising sign is Gemini, Taurus is your 12th House. 
• If your rising sign is Cancer, Taurus is your 11th House. 
• If your rising sign is Leo, Taurus is your 10th House. 
• If your rising sign is Virgo, Taurus is your 9th House. 
• If your rising sign is Libra, Taurus is your 8th House. 
• If your rising sign is Scorpio, Taurus is your 7th House. 
• If your rising sign is Sagittarius, Taurus is your 6th House. 
• If your rising sign is Capricorn, Taurus is your 5th House. 
• If your rising sign is Aquarius, Taurus is your 4th House. 
• If your rising sign is Pisces, Taurus is your 3rd House. 

Example 

Venus in Taurus and the 7th House 

Venus (I love) in Taurus (I Have) in the 7th House of relationships translates to I love to have relationships. Because Venus is said to rule Taurus, it is more empowered in this postion so the urge to be in a relationship can be stronger. You are more patient, sensual, and dependable so relationships that you are already in can improve and reach a new level of commitment and intimacy. If you are single it is possible that you meet a special someone during this time. Because Taurus is fond of comfort and beauty, a person's physical appearance may be more important to you know than usual. Not only do you want a commitment now but you are also ready for it as well.   

Aspects Within the Chart 

Aspects, or relationships between planets, is another dimension of astrological interpretation that should be considered. First we can look at the aspects between the planets in the transit chart. If you look at the chart above, you'll see that Venus (I love) is also 3 degrees away from Uranus (I rebel) making this an applying conjunction. This would translate to I love to rebel in relationships. This can be an indication of meeting someone who is unusual, or against your usual type or beinig in an unconventional relationship.  

Aspect to Your Natal Chart 

Next we look for any aspects between transit Venus and one's natal chart. For example, looking at my own natal chart I see that Venus at 0° Taurus is making a square (difficult aspect) to my Natal MC at 10° Leo. A square is a type of aspect in which the energy or urge of one planet is causing friction with the energy or urge of another planet. 

Venus + Square + Midheaven (MC) 

I love + strains + my reputation 

Venus is known as the "lesser benefic" (with Jupiter being the "greater benefic") so a square of transit Venus to one's Natal MC isn't really considered severe or particularly difficult. The positive aspects of Venus, such as charm, attraction, and socializing are enhanced while its negative aspects can bring greater difficulties. This is not a time for selfishness, laziness, dishonesty, or vanity. These negative behaviors can cause problems in your relationships or with your reputation. You may feel a stronger urge for romance or companionship now -- especially physical contact. 

Ruler of the House 

What house does Venus Rule in your chart? The ingress of Venus into Taurus will have an affect on the ruler of that house. Venus rules both Taurus and Libra. In my own Natal Chart Venus Ruled Taurus is in the 7th House and Taurus is also in my 7th House. So the ruler of my 7th house is also transiting the 7th house. What this means is that the activities of the 7th house will now serve the interest and activities of the 7th house. 

This can be translated as "relationships, cooperation, and agreements serve marriage, agreements, and partnerships." We can extrapolate on this statement by saying something along the lines of you treat your relationship like a business or your business like a relationship. You may choose a romantic partner that you can go into business with or you may start a romantic relationship with a business partner. 

How will the ingress of Venus into Taurus manifest for you?
