Venus: Planet of Love and Money

Venus refer to as pleasure, especially pleasure shared with
someone else. Venus concerns itself with love, romance
and harmony in our emotional attachments, marriages,
friendships and other unions (example business partnerships). Venus
is content to spread happiness and tenderness, while
teaching us how to love and appreciate others and the things
that we possess.
We appear attractive and we attract others, thanks to
Venus's energy. Socializing with and relating to others are
important to this Planet.
Beauty is also strongly associated with Venus. The arts (music,
dance, drama and literature, to name a few) and a sense of the
aesthetic fall within the ream of Venus. Venus beseeches us to
indulge our senses and revel in the beauty of our world. This
Planet is inextricably linked to refinement, culture, charm and
grace.
Venus also deals with the pleasure we derive from our
possessions. Luxuries (jewelry, paintings, expensive cars), good
food and drink, a beautiful home and a sense of refinement all
please Venus's interests. This Planet asks us to appreciate the
exquisite nature of things. It's a sensual -- though not
necessarily sexual -- world as far as Venus is concerned.
Venus takes 225 days to complete its orbit of the zodiac; it is
never more than 47 degrees from the Sun. It is a feminine
energy and rules both Taurus and Libra and the Second and
Seventh Houses.
