Venus from Libra to Scorpio: Deepening Intimacy
In Astrology, the transits of Venus inform us of shifts in our values and our way of relating with ourselves, with others, with money, with our physical bodies, our sensuality, and Nature. Venus is associated with what we enjoy, what we desire, what we are attracted to, and with our ability to magnetize and receive it.
Venus’s journey through her home sign of Libra inspired us to create more harmony in our lives and our relationships, reminding us of the importance of considering both our and others’ desires, needs, and feelings. This transit invited us to choose collaboration over competition and encouraged us to recognize and solve any imbalances between how much we give and how much we receive.
Venus’ ingress into Scorpio is an invitation to establish deeper intimacy with both ourselves and others. This shift inspires a deepening of our connections, highlighting the value of relationships as evolutionary accelerators and catalysts. In the Fixed Water sign of Scorpio, Venus seeks emotional intimacy and transformative bonds: this transit encourages us to dive into the undercurrent of relationships rather than stay safe on the surface.
Venus in Scorpio 2024: Love and Loss
The transition from Libra to Scorpio in the Zodiac has a lot to do with the deepening of relationships. After assessing compatibility on a basic level through conversations, casual interactions, and establishing agreements, it is time to deepen our bonds. As Scorpio is a Water sign, emotions become involved and the focus goes on merging with the other.
Ruling over sexuality, marriage, and shared resources, Scorpio teaches us that true intimacy requires trust, transparency, and willingness to surrender control. Associated with power, empowerment, and Soul desire, Scorpio challenges us to accept impermanence and embrace both love and loss. When Venus is in the sign of the Scorpion, this invitation deepens, as we are called to choose vulnerability and dare to show our true selves to our close ones.
Trust issues come front and center during this transit, as we are challenged to evaluate whether our relationships are basedon a true foundation and discern who we can trust and to what extent. This is a powerful time to confront fears and insecurities surrounding betrayal, hurt, and abandonment, and embrace the full spectrum of emotions, accepting that to love means to accept the inevitability of loss.
Venus in aspect to Saturn, Mars, and Uranus
During her journey through Scorpio, Venus is going to align with retrograde Saturn in Pisces, Mars in Cancer, retrograde Uranus in Taurus, retrograde Neptune in Pisces, and Pluto in Capricorn.
Venus trines retrograde Saturn on October 4. This aspect inspires us to think for the long term when it comes to both relationships and financial matters: the Venus-Saturn trine encourages us to consolidate those connections built on a steady foundation and represents a beneficial influence on financial planning, saving, and investing.
On October 8, Venus in Scorpio perfects her trine to Mars in Cancer. The harmonic alignment between the two relationship planets supports our ability to reconcile our needs and desires with other people’s needs and desires and find healthy compromises that add value to everyone.
Venus in Scorpio opposes retrograde Uranus in Taurus on October 14. This alignment, happening just a few days before the Annular Solar Eclipse in Libra, highlights the urge to make radical and drastic changes in our relationships and values. The Venus-Uranus opposition emphasizes the tension between our need for freedom, independence, and self-reliance, and our desire to establish deep and intimate emotional connections with others.
