Natal Venus in Scorpio

With your natal Venus in Scorpio, the water sign will blend with the planet of affection, gifting it with
dynamic yet dark attributes, and affecting everything that Venus represents in your natal chart. Venus is
generally governing pleasure and what attracts us, attachment to material things and subconscious urges
to claim and make something our possession. It rules what we appreciate and brings us comfort, and of
course feelings that can be described under the category “love”. Scorpio energy will make the native a
rather possessive owner of what he loves, receiving tremendous pleasure through controlling the
desired object or person.

Scorpio is the eighth sign of the zodiac, and has planet Pluto as its ruling celestial body. The old ruler of
the sign, before the discovery of Pluto, was planet Mars. Still now, astrologers consider Mars as co-ruler
of the sign. Scorpio is also the natural ruler of the eighth house, which rules sex, death, transformation
and other people’s money. This will make Scorpio Venus reach her maximum sexuality, even by breaking
borders and transforming through this act. In addition, the secretive traits of Scorpio will make the
native’s love-life quite clandestine, and the individual will concentrate on breaking taboos of both him
and his lovers. They will prefer not to speak about their affairs, keeping all the details for themselves.
Those details are usually rather spicy, including fetishes, mind-games and struggles of control. When it
comes to relationships, they will never rush to get into one and it is always considered a separate subject
from sex itself. A Venus in Scorpio person is very, very suspicious and paranoid, and thus needs a lot of
time to trust someone. They need loyalty from their partners, and will not enter a stable relationship
unless they are sure it is provided. Even then, jealousy will still exist, and in case of difficult aspects to
natal Venus will appear even without any apparent reason. Such individuals can get so obsessed with
one certain lover, that they can transform their own life just for being with him.

In the sign of Scorpio, Venus is in detriment and thus in a rather problematic position. Scorpio is located
directly at the opposite of the sign Taurus, where Venus is considered in domicile. The other sign where
the planet is also in detriment is Aries, as it is opposite the sign Libra (the second sign ruled by the planet
Venus). This is a rather impractical placement to have in a natal chart, as the gentle, moist and feminine
traits of Venus do not blend well with the dynamic and obsessive characteristics of Scorpio. The sign is
bringing a big upheaval to the otherwise harmonic planet, leading the planet of love and affection to
extremes – mostly connected with sexuality, and especially in its darker forms. On the other hand, Venus
placed here promises unforgettable erotic experiences of the deepest type. Yet, we should not forget
that the co-ruler of the sign, Mars, makes Venus rather impulsive, aggressive and demanding considering
what it desires. Additional information about Venus’ potency in each sign can be read in the article about
Venus’ Essential Dignities.

We should note that Venus needs around a month to move to a next sign, and is the second quickest
moving planet, as it is located very near the Sun. Also, it cannot be more than two signs away from the
sign where the natal Sun resides in. Once per year and a half, Venus has a period of retrograde motion,
where it moves backwards for apparently 40 days in the natal chart. Venus is impersonated by the
ancient Greek god Aphrodite, who was the goddess of love, pleasure and beauty. Also, she is strongly
connected to procreation, and naturally represents the divine feminine as an archetype (together of
course with the Moon as it is the one side of the Sun-Moon dual axis). When a native has his natal Venus
in Scorpio, he will use any way to conquer his sexual prey, including secret strategies and manipulation.
From the moment that their attention becomes fixed on a person (or object) that they desire, they will
do anything to get it and will feel that they possess it. For a Venus in Scorpio person, the possible fact
that the desired one belongs to someone else is not important at all. Neither will be important the
desired person’s will – such individuals will still try to conquer that person no matter what. When they
develop an obsession for someone, it will usually last for long. The more difficult this task becomes, the
more stubborn they will become in order to fulfill their goals.

Needless to say that such individuals should be careful when they have difficult aspects in their natal
charts, especially connected with malefic planets such as Mars, Saturn and Pluto. Their affection towards
a person may become toxic, causing fights, stress and a lot of turmoil for both. In extreme situations, this
placement can give violent outbursts when a relationship does not function well, and may bring up
emotions such as extreme jealousy, obsessive suspiciousness and revengeful behaviours. Those feelings
may of course be connected with childhood traumas, which in some occasions may even have a sexual
hue. Such behavioral patterns may prove quite unhealthy and even unsafe, as the native may even
receive pleasure through hurting the feelings of their significant others. Keep these Scorpionic
tendencies healthy, and try to channel that energy into more productive patterns.

People with Venus in Scorpio will strongly commit to their significant other. When they are in love, they
are focused on that person, maybe even too much. This can be perceived from the other side as some
type of pressure, especially when their partner feels being tested about his feelings. They should always
be careful to not become too controlling and not to start self-sabotaging the relationship, which will
eventually tend to lose its magic if not left to blossom itself. Pushing things to reach higher levels of
bonding artificially can only destroy the natural procedure. If you recognize yourself in these behaviors,
you should even consider trying to leave more things and choices related to your relationship in the
hands of your partner, because you probably concentrate most power in your own. Be sure that such a
balance will give you more chances to create a healthy and long-lasting partnership.

When coming to affairs, a Venus in Scorpio native will definitely get transformed through them. Of
course, here we are talking about the intense relationships, which will define him as a human being.
Indeed, through each one he relinquishes his old self, getting into some type of cocoon and exiting it
totally changed. For them, a relationship signifies the end of the old ego, and with the eventual death of
the relationship arises a totally new self. People with this placement should be careful to not use their
significant others for the sole purpose of personal transformation. They can indeed develop a tendency
to parasitize on their partner, draining him emotionally (and in some cases even materially), leaving him
more or less destroyed after the relationship ends. And this, in the case that the Scorpio Venus person
decides that the relationship has ended its cycle. In case the partner is the one who decides its
termination, the Venus in Scorpio individual can develop extreme reactions that we mentioned earlier. If
we must use a metaphor, the Scorpio Venus individual could be compared to a vulture feasting on his
desired prey; when this action is suddenly interrupted (by the prey itself), we will probably have a very
angry vulture.

As Venus is connected with wealth and money, its presence in Scorpio can make the native adore money.
It can even be an aphrodisiac, or become one of his fetishes. For them money is more than power, it is
control. They tend to exercise strong control on their wallet, and will never refuse controlling other
people’s wallets too. Naturally, they will be extremely secretive about their finances. They are usually
drawn towards occupations that involve money, even if it is not their own. Thus, we may easily see such
people in governmental positions, banks, and other institutes of authority. They enjoy large amounts of
money passing through their hands, and such jobs usually give them some type of control, or the feeling
of being in power against individuals.

This placement can gift strong attraction towards the occult, magic and mysteries in general. Such people
will both love reading about the dark arts and exercising them. Also, they will get fascinated by
uncovering what is hidden. Death as a concept does not frighten them but rather becomes a form of art.
We will frequently see them wearing black, belonging to subcultures that wear occult apparel such as
Goths, and generally experiment with obscure types of music and recreation.

When a Venus in Scorpio is well aspected in a natal chart, the native can be very lucky in the life area
that the sign of Scorpio rules. We should not forget that Venus is considered to be the most benefic
planet after Jupiter. It will bring unexpected pleasant events concerning the house where it resides, and
generally help things flow easily. On the contrary, bad aspects to Venus can bring quite a lot of problems
mostly connected with overindulging in pleasures. Also, when the darker traits of Venus are awakened
by difficult natal aspects, the Scorpio Venus person may complicate his love-life through sexually intense
yet toxic relationships; this will naturally hurt back through emotional losses in order to balance out the
natal chart. Overabundance for long is not tolerated by the karmic laws, so it is always wiser to exercise
modesty.

Anon One thing I’ve found about Venus in Scorpio is that they can be very dirty, as in they don’t like to
wash things. Whether it is themselves, their kids, pets, and the bedclothes and garments associated with
these beings. They can ensure that things get very filthy very fast, and have an almost pathological
avoidance of water – quite disgusting. Or, they can be nuts about one cleaning issue but not another. As
in, the housewife who goes crazy if a drop of water is spilled on the kitchen floor, but allows her cat to do
a number two under the bed and thinks it’s funny. Long and the short of it is, I have found these people
to be very crazy people, and literally to be avoided for the sake of one’s own health.
