Venus In Cancer

Venus is the planet of sensitivity and affection, while Cancer is the most nurturing zodiac sign. When these two get together it creates the potential for greater intimacy, and the chance to build up our romantic relationships. We’ll want to stay at home and bond, cuddle, and talk about our feelings. If your love life has been stalled, or if you’ve been dating a commitment-phobe, things may start looking up during this time.

The urge to care for others  will be stronger while Venus is in Cancer. Family and feeling connected to your roots will become more important and more fulfilling during this time. Nesting will provide a great deal of pleasure now, and you may decide to decorate a room in your house or purchase new furniture or decor. Your home will be your sanctuary, and you’ll want to do what you can to ensure that it is a safe space for you. If you’re in the market to buy or sell, Venus (the planet of money) in Cancer (related to real estate) may be a good time to act.

Don’t be surprised if you feel a bit moody and emotionally delicate when Venus is in Cancer, especially when it comes to your friendships and romantic relationships. This transit can leave us feeling more sensitive than usual, opening us up to the possibility of being wounded emotionally. Cancer’s self-protective nature is to withdraw and hide when this happens, so be mindful of that possibility. The upside to this level of vulnerability is that your heart will be wide open, allowing you to attract and give love more easily.

Venus In Taurus

When this loving planet enters the earthy sign of Taurus, we are reminded of just how beautiful this world can be. Venus’s presence in this patient zodiac sign signals a time of simplifying complexities, getting down to fundamentals, and rebuilding relationships from the ground up. This is an ideal time to bring love and money issues out into the open so they can be dealt with directly and easily.

Dating is delightful when Venus is in Taurus! It encourages us to slow down, live in the moment, and find ways to enjoy the company of someone special. Maybe you and your sweetheart will cuddle up and watch a great movie, open a good bottle of wine, or feast on something delicious. This is the time when you’ll both be in the mood to indulge your senses.

Taurus is a security-oriented sign that seeks stability over torrid passion. That means when this planet and sign get together, we’re more drawn to commitment than quick affairs or casual dating. If you want a relationship, or if you’ve had your eye on someone for a while, this could be the time when you two decide to take things to the next level.

There’s a possibility that our partnerships could get bogged down by the infamous stubbornness Taurus is known for when Venus is in Taurus. This is one drawback of this cosmic coupling that everyone should be mindful of. If you’re in a relationship, or on track toward commitment, this might be a time when it’s more difficult for the two of you to move forward as a couple. Compromise can be difficult when you’re dealing with the Bull! If you’re single, this is a time when you’ll feel some internal resistance to opening yourself up and letting in someone new. Remember: A little bit of flexibility can go a long way.
