Venus
Venus is the principle of attraction: what a chart loves, finds beautiful, and counts as worth having. It governs affection, pleasure, and value — the art of relating and the taste that draws like to like — and it rules Taurus, where its love is sensual and steadfast, and Libra, where it becomes grace and balance.
Indulged, Venus drifts into vanity, possessiveness, or a comfort that softens into excess. At its best, it is the capacity for tenderness and the eye for harmony — the warmth that makes connection and beauty feel like the point of things.
