Significance of Transiting Venus
The transits of Venus are usually rather brief in their effects, because Venus is a fast moving planet. Although its effects may be felt for no more than a day, they are quite pleasant and easy to deal with There are some things that you should understand, however, to get maximum benefit from the transits of Venus
Venus is a Yin planet, that is, a planet of negative polarity, as opposed to Yang, or positive polarity; the word negative does not imply difficulty or evil. The influence of Venus seldom results in positive action. Usually, it draws things to you, a process in which you play rather a passive part. Venus rules the spontaneous power of attraction between two entities that differ in such a way that together they form a higher and more complex whole than would otherwise be possible.
In its highest manifestation, Venus is love, the emotion that brings people together without force or compulsion. Venus is also the power behind creativity, which stems from the recognition that components in the outer world may be combined to create a beautiful whole. When working properly, Venus always creates something spiritually higher than the original entity. But it always has to work with the power of Mars, the ego drive, the drive of an entity to be itself. Only a fully realized entity can experience the power of Venus. Only a human being who has become as perfect a manifestation as possible of what he or she is can experience love. The balance between Mars and Venus is rather delicate and easily upset. Egotism and the desire to control may become confused with love, and love may be used to manipulate.
At times Venus causes entities to be brought together in a passive manner, resulting in the creation not of a higher entity, but of a useless conglomeration, a pointless accretion. In human terms this is manifested in the tendency of Venus to produce a mood of self-indulgent slothfulness in which one simply sits and waits for nice things to roll in without contributing any effort. This side is also seen in Venus’ indulgence of softness and luxury, which can result in the inability to maintain oneself in times of adversity.
Venus is a social planet, and one of its most pleasant effects is to bring about happy social occasions. Parties and entertaining are best done with Venus transits. At least you will have fun!
The classic manifestation of Venus is the love affair. Although Venus transits are usually too short to bring about a major love relationship by themselves, they do signify good times within existing relationships and can indicate an evening’s dalliance. Friendships are also made more enjoyable by Venus transits
There are few difficult transits of Venus, except to Saturn. which of all the planets is the most inimical to Venus’s energies. Transits to Neptune, although pleasant, often produce dangerous delusions in love relationships
Venus transits are often considered to be good for financial matters, because of Venus’s tendency to attract material things. This author, however, does not agree with the prevalent opinion that Venus “rules” money.
