Sun Conjunct Venus

This conjunction conveys an optimistic and cheerful spirit, where you will greatly enjoy social company and the pleasures of life, with the result that aesthetic and hedonistic activities are often indulged to stimulate your sensual nature. Love and social relationships are highlighted, and you will be attracted to participate in the whirl of social life, circulating around your collection of friends, family, and acquaintances. You feel it is important to be liked by others, and this need may make you act in certain ways which gain the approval of people, so you should take care that you do not overly compromise your own feelings and thoughts in order to remain socially acceptable.

There can be a dramatic quality to your style of self-presentation, emerging out of an artistic and creative sensitivity, and you often employ it to gain the attention of people. While some may see you as superficial, you know this is not a fair judgment. The recognition you are looking for is of your whole personality, your talents and qualities, and as you grow older you will prefer to enjoy the company of those who can appreciate you more fully. This may be through mutual interests in art, culture, or the beauty of nature, because lying beneath any socialite veneer is your real appreciation of the harmony of life and nature which evokes a romantic and poetic spirit that inspires your perception of life and infuses you with a hidden desire for inner peace and integration.

You wish to have a high quality in life and will try to create a pleasing home environment which allows relaxation and pleasure. You will attract others to your potent magnetic personality, and you are likely to experience a variety of relationships as a consequence of your romantic attitudes. You open easily to demonstrations of love and affection, and your heart can quickly melt. As a lover of life, there is a certain intensity to your presence, and especially to how you love. Some may find it difficult to handle, but you must never attempt to turn off your developed love nature, or you may find that life rapidly loses its luster and becomes grey, mundane, and lifeless.

Part of your role in this world is to spread life-appreciation, enlivening others so that they too can become sincere lovers of life, and is that not a task worth pursuing? Some may find you a bit narcissistic, so you may need to be aware of their reactions, and, if they are correct in their evaluation of your self-centeredness, then some modification is advised. In conversations, the art of listening is as important as the art of speaking, and your enthusiasms may require occasional toning down. You can bring positive benefits to those who become intimately close, through sharing your vitality, love, and affections.

Changes will come through the expression of your heart and life enjoyment, and these may reshape your conscious identity and self-image over time, so that more depth and insight begin to unfold. Others may turn to you for support and advice, wanting your flame to relight their own. Your path of solar development is through the unifying love energies of Venus, so let these radiate outwards into the world, touching and igniting the hearts of others. Reflect on this: How can you balance your need for social approval with staying true to your authentic self?
