What Does Your Venus Sign Mean In Astrology?

It's easy to think that astrology revolves around the sun sign, much like the planets do in our natural solar system.

But in reality, the classical planets govern different parts of the human spirit and personality, which is something professional astrologers have been charting for centuries. You see, the sun sign represents your entire sense of self, while the moon sign hints at hidden values and deep-set emotions. 

Meanwhile, your Venus sign sums up everything you value and love in the world. This spans your relationships, both platonic and romantic, the way you show adoration and the things that bring you joy and pleasure in all aspects of life. These themes come from the Goddess Venus herself, whose feminine symbol and planetary ruling brings her love for all things, well, love to your life!

That involves all the nitty-gritty bits that often get overlooked with sun sign compatibility, such as what we're looking for in a partner, how we show affection and adoration, what we find erotic, and how we bring value to a companion's table. It also gives us scope for the future, tapping into what we hope to build for our lives with another person.
