Venus in Cancer (General) 

When Venus (I Love) is in Cancer (I Feel), people are more emotional but may refrain from giving out their affection too easily.  They want a true romance that is lasting and are interested more in strength, loyalty, and security rather than more transitory relationships (i.e. hit it and quit it). Feelings and values regarding love and romance lean more towards the traditional and they are more patient and determined in their pursuit of love.  Familiar and predictive behavior is favored more when Venus is in Cancer and people are more apt to seek out love in their own community, neighborhood, or family (i.e. my brother's friend) rather than online or through dating apps.

Example 

Venus in Cancer and the 9th House 

You are attracted to anyone now who can provide your with less restraint and more adventure in your life; someone who can broaden your mind on topics such as philosophy, the worlds, and higher ethics. You gain a great deal of pleasure and satisfaction from exposure to different cultures and belief systems and may travel outside your comfort zone, if not visiting another country you could experiment with foreign food or visit an ethnic community.

Aspects 

Aspects, or relationships between planets, is another dimension of astrological interpretation that should be considered. For example, let us supposed that you have Natal Venus in 02° Scorpio that would mean that Transit Venus in 0° Cancer is forming a trine to your Natal Venus. A trine is a type of aspect in which the energy or urge of one planets flows in harmony with the energy or urge of another planet. When Transit Venus forms a Trine to Natal Venus you can expect more harmony in your life. Relationships as well as finances improve and you can expect to feel happier, more balanced, and generally satisfied with life. This can be a time in your life when you find that you can manifest your desires with ease.
