Venus Horoscope: Let the stars guide you to happily ever after

L’ amour! The most important and confusing sentiment us humans feel. However mystifying matters of the heart may be, astrology can help us understand our romantic notions better.

Luckily, the planet Venus can help us become familiar with how we show and give affection, comfort, and love to others and ourselves. This red-hot planet also sheds light on what we require in return vis-à-vis romantic flavors and sentimentalities.

The house placement that our natal Venus sign falls in, by way of our natal chart, will bring us more clarity across the board. For example, if your Venus sign is in Aries and in the 11th House, then you are impulsive in love, but you may not want to be involved in a deep relationship.
