Venus Changes Signs
Dear readers, Venus is changing signs as of the second week of July. While this transit effect continues until the end of July; When Venus leaves behind its fixed and deeply bonding nature in Taurus and moves into Gemini, our understanding of love and value begin to be reshaped through mental mobility, curiosity and communication. This transition is like a wave of air that lightens our love language on a collective level and carries our relational contacts to the ground of speaking, writing, learning and sharing. Here, Venus is in love with words, not emotions. It attracts ideas more than looks, and seeks mental companionship more than physical closeness. Now, we are more affected by “what someone says”, “how intelligent or witty they are”, “what they think”.
On a spiritual level, this period is the time to notice our mental patterns in love and relationships, to review our way of expressing ourselves and most importantly, to gain the courage to talk about love. When Venus is in Gemini, emotions float in the air; they change shape, search for meaning, and are sometimes childish and sometimes enchantingly communicated. This transit is an opportunity to express what comes from the heart, to create a new emotional architecture that may seem like “loving through talking.”
However, like every air element, this does not remain constant. Venus in Gemini becomes more open to flirting energy, temporary excitement, and quick attachments and disconnections than long-term bonds. In particular, “communication traumas” or “untold stories” from past relationships may flood the mind during this period. Contacting ex-lovers, completing unfinished conversations, resolving feelings through talking or expressing them through writing can be healing on a spiritual level. The shadow side of this transit is superficiality, emotional escape, fear of attachment, or mental manipulation. However, the real gift this transit offers is the ability to combine love with thought, curiosity with connection, and expression with love.
Venus Gemini Transit According to Rising Signs
For Aries Rising, this transit brings the theme of love and value to the mental areas – learning, communication, short trips, and sibling relationships. During this period, Aries will give more importance to how well they communicate with the person in front of them and their intellectual harmony. Relationships with siblings or close circle may be sweetened; writing, receiving education or producing content on social media may become as attractive as love. This is also the period of romantic correspondence, intellectual flirtations and bonds established with words.
For Taurus Ascendant, this Venus transit takes place in the area of material issues, self- esteem and personal security. Money has always been a security element for Taurus, but now it is time to question tehir relationship with money. Questions such as “Is it important to have or to share?” and “How can I use my earnings more creatively?” may come to the fore. At the same time, their ways of giving value may change during this process; for example, instead of buying someone a gift, having a mind-opening conversation with them may feel more valuable.
For Gemini Ascendant, this transit affects the area that represents them. Their appearance, personal expression, style and way of presenting themselves are renewed with the graceful and loving touch of Venus. This is a period when Gemini will be both more attractive and more impressive. They become enchanting with their speech and inspiring with their writing. This period, in which they will not hesitate to express themselves more clearly and openly in relationships, is an opportunity to align their hearts and minds.
For Cancer Ascendant, this transit sheds a Venusian light on subconscious and introverted issues that have been left in the background. This period may be a period in which unspoken words, repressed emotions, and unfinished love stories from the past come to the forefront through dreams or memories. Everything Cancer has stored in their emotional memory now wants to come to life. Writing, doing inner work, and finding expression through art support this process. A secret admirer, a platonic love, or an inner inspiration may surface during this transit of Venus.
For Leo Ascendant, Venus sheds light on the house of social environment, friendships and future dreams. During this period, Leos can shine in crowds and attract love or valuable friendships from communities. They can gain impressive charm especially in intellectual groups, conversation platforms or digital areas. At the same time, a flirtation that starts with friendship can create an emotional spark. Generating more creative thoughts on future goals and turning to collaborations that include social benefits is Venus's invitation during this period.
For Virgo Ascendant, this transit of Venus takes place in the field of career, public image and relations with higher authorities. During this period, Virgos can be more diplomatic, more creative and more social in business relations. A female figure or an elegant mediator can be supportive in terms of career. They can build their reputation with words and establish connections with authority based on intelligence and respect. Love can appear surprisingly in public or in a professional environment during this period.
For Libra Ascendant, Venus, transit to Gemini is like an attunement. Because they are the rulers of Venus and now, they are hosting it in the air element that naturally nourishes it. This transit creates a sweet opening in Libras' relationships with distant people, foreign connections, higher education, philosophical inquiries and belief systems. They can search for love far away and establish deep emotional ties with a new culture or an intellectual movement. Education and travel themes can also bring love.
For Scorpio Ascendant, this transit takes place in a deeper, more mysterious and more transformative dimension. Joint incomes, spiritual sharing, psychological connections and even sexuality become talkative during this period. Scorpio, who is normally silent, can now find the courage to put their emotional depth into words. In material terms, diplomacy, communication skills and intelligence come to the fore in joint investments. Mutual emotional nakedness can create great healing during this process.
For Sagittarius Ascendant, Venus moves to the area of relationships and partnerships, which is the opposite house. During this period, Sagittarians look for mental companionship more in the relationship; the intellectual level, humor and style of expression of the person they are with affect them more. Those in a long-term relationship have the chance to renew their communication. For single Sagittarians, this period is the period when they start to live the ideal of “someone I can think with” more clearly.
For Capricorn Ascendant, this transit occurs in the areas of daily routine, work environment, health and service. Capricorns can establish a more cheerful, social and flexible work atmosphere during this period. They can be more productive, creative and effective especially in jobs that require written and verbal communication. Love may come across them unexpectedly in the office or in a work environment. In terms of health, mental cleansing, breathing exercises and the use of positive words can yield much more effective results during this period.
For Aquarius Ascendant, Venus moves into the area of love, entertainment, children, creativity and self-expression. During this period, Aquarius may feel more cheerful, social, productive and creative. Intellectual connections come to the fore in their love lives. It is a very suitable time to write, make music, go on stage or find expression on social media. While communication becomes a very strong binding element in love, the dialogue established with children can also deepen.
For Pisces Ascendant, Venus sheds light on the area of family, roots, past and inner security. During this period, themes such as beautification in the home, home decoration, peace with the family, and a compassionate confrontation with the past may come to the fore. With the guidance of the mother or a female figure, emotional relaxation and a new sense of sweetness and softening in the inner world may develop. At the same time, for Pisces working from home, this period may be creative, productive and fruitful.
With love.
