Venus in Taurus is a very strong comfortable placement for her, she rules the roost in this earth house. Toro Venus loves money for the security and the luxury it brings. Soft fabrics, smooth sounds, sweet smells, fine wine, chef’s specialties have great appeal, for this Venus knows and demands quality. They appreciate finery and finesse in their love relationships.
Toro Venus loves their pleasure (Venus) and they crave a calm, drama free comfort zone – space to zen out and relax – their peace of mind undisturbed, their Kasbah beautiful and harmonious. Material security is important to them, as are the things they possess – don’t be juggling the family heirlooms they hold dear if you want to stay in good graces.
This Venus placement is kind, patient and understanding – to a point. They can be far more patient than other Venus placements, but when pushed too far, they see red – you may as well forget stuffing that bull back in the box.
While operating high qi, this Venus is artistic, friendly, sociable, they love to please others in their circle. When operating low qi, this Venus can be infuriatingly possessive, stubborn and immovable. They often border on overly possessive of their love partners, and while very sensual, they find it difficult to reveal their deepest feelings.
Toro Venus is known for common sense, reliability, though they are often more than a little predictable. They want to be courted, wooed and given lavish gifts – they are earthy and the material world is important to them. Pleasing scents, voices, fabrics, and loving attention to their neck (Taurus rules) will set them into the mood very quickly.
Venus in Taurus vibration allows you to feel comfortable and secure, they radiate sensual appreciation of all the experiences this life has to offer.
Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister Game of Thrones
How fun is it watching Peter chew lines and spit ’em out with sardonic wit week afterweek ? Easilyone of my favorites on GoT, he steals scene after scene,year after year. Peter won an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series in 2011 for the role of Tyrion. I have loved his work since I saw The Station Agent, co-starringPatricia Clarkson, I highly recommend it.
Peter is a very earthy Gemini Sun (and Mercury – rules Gem), with 3 planets in Toro, including Moon (exalted here) and a late Virgo stellium.
Early Sagittarius Mars, Chiron in Aries are his lone fire planets – but with Jupiter nestled between Pluto and Uranus – Peter has plenty of wisdom, enthusiasm and power to attain adventurous goals. Chiron in Aries is a powerful drive to heal wounds through understanding/seeing the big picture, while focusing on taking the single-minded independent lead. Mars in Sag loves to explore, learn, experience and play.
Sag Mars quintiles (genius expression) Virgo Pluto and if that doesn’t make a randy, lusty, silver-tongued devil I’ll eat your hat. Perfect casting ! It also indicates a drive to expand philosophies/perceptions surrounding perfection on a mass scale (Mars quint Pluto trine Moon).
Virgo Jupiter neck and neck with the innovator (Uranus) and the metamorph (Pluto) craft a clever, witty and practical punch. Pluto trines exalted Moon in Venus – ruled Toro leading to favor, attraction via steady, humble groundwork – laid patiently, skillfully, and sensually, I might add.
Kudos to leathersmith, & artisans all – fantastic work !
Peter has Gemini Sun square late Virgo Pluto/Jupiter/Uranus leading to a tremendous inner tension forcing intellectual/communicative self-improvement. The key is versatility inherent to mutable signs – mental dexterity, witty repartee, being calm, cool, collected in a battle of wits.
That knock-out Virgo stellium sees Jupiter in exact sextile to Neptune in Scorpio – now that is the ability to powerfully flesh out any scenes on film (Neptune). The minutiae of expressions Peter is capable of turning out in scene after scene is stunning. Did you catch his eye twitching when Tywin (new hand in the office) was lecturing him ? Go back and look – amazing. He is all kinds of fun to watch onscreen !
Venus bang on Saturn in Toro has much to do with that artistic control. Venus rules Taurus and the arts; Saturn, discipline and control – both are well-placed in earth. Peter’s perceptual prowess coupled with powers of mimicry – Mercurial energy is working its charm !
I’ll pop some fun vids in the comments – fair warning – plenty of swearing and skin. If it turns you off – don’t turn it on.
I have Mercury in Libra at MC, where does our money go (public is Libra, 7th) and what does it communicate ? How manyslang terms for Moola? :::::::::::::::::::: This one cracked me up, a funny moment in a double shift that brought a big grin. I still have it, I do have Venus in Leo 8th after all.
These are all over the place in Iowa, sinceNORMLis going strong there.
Then there are the Where’s George bills – enter the serial # and track the movements of Venus all over the states. I tracked one as far as the local pharmacy, before that it was in Georgia somewhere. I was curious where it had been. I have Aquarius (curiosity) on 2nd, Venus in Leo (curious cat on 8th of research) conjunct Jupiter (long distance travel). Venus sure does get around . . . (soz, couldn’t resist !)
How is your cash FLOW ?
Look at Venus.
Look to how Venus is aspected:
trine (harmonious); square (tense, difficult); opposition (dealing with others) or sextile (opportunities).
Have a peek at Margaret’s chart interp, she has great $$ aspects.
Also noteOprah Winfrey’snatal Grand AirTrine: Sun, Mercury, Venus in 2nd house Aquarius, trine Jupiter in Gemini 6th, trine Neptune in 10. Pluto in Leo 8th opposes all her Aquarius, squares her Mars in Scorpio (focal planet in T Square). Oprah is a powerfully driven businesswoman, using her unusual gift for communicating. She is the queen guru of pop culture talk show healing on a mass scale.
Hello gorgeous people . . . I did not get any sky candy in my neck of the woods due to clouds last eve, and nearly missed this conjunction because of the same. Slipped out to find my cat and spotted it – snapped a quick pic !
Monday 15 Venus into Taurus 2:25am CST, USA
Moon into Cancer 9:49pm Venus rules Taurus (as well as Libra) so this will be a happy shift in energies for the goddess of love. She is graced with Taurean stability, patiently working hard for all things Venusian. Love, creativity, money, balance.
Toro Venus is earthy, blessed with common sense, practicality and often a pleasing voice, for Toro rules the throat. She is comfortable with her sexuality, nurturing, dependable and kind. Toro Venus needs both financial and emotional security to truly flourish, she is ruled by senses and wants her environment lush and comfortable.
Ownership can sometimes be a problem with this Venus – who and what they HAVE in their lives are often treated as possessions – the furniture doesn’t mind, but people do. This Venus placement signals a balancing self-worth, skill sets and peace of mind.
They are rather fixed in temperament, this Venus is oOozing Zen until something builds up too long – then you had better start running ! Taurean tempers are legendary – they are patient, patient, patient until pushed too far – then POP – meltdown of colossal proportions.
Don’t go expecting them to hurry up whatever they are doing to please you either – Toros will get there when they are darn good and ready. Stubborn ? haha Yes. This Venus likes to take her time, she like to stop and smell the roses.
Margaret has been a gearhead since the age of 8 (when she first drove), she still drives her 82 year old car, she is 102, and she just won a scholarship to go back to school and finish her business degree. Holy cow – I’ll have what she’s having ! Obviously, she’s got an Aquarian edge somewhere and some good Saturn happening.
She’s a Cancer with Moon in Aquarius. Uranus in Capricorn with Saturn in Taurus, which I have to admit is what I went looking for, but instead was amazed by her business acumen and stunning money aspects*. Cancers are known for business, though they are a bit more discreet than Capricorns (their opposite sign), they are on the same wavelength of gather, rinse, repeat.
Her Royal Flush / Midas touch is she is positively oozing Venus, so cool !
* Venus = $$
She is a conservative, cautious but extremely lucky gambler: Mars in Leo on the decan of Sun, square Saturn, but sextile Jupiter
Her Cancer Sun is on the decan of Moon, sextile Toro Saturn – excellent $$ instincts
Margaret has two planets ruling their signs:
Mercury in Gemini Venus in Taurus* conjunct North Node of Destiny (benefic)
Jupiter trines both of these planets (out of sign) from the other Venus-ruled house, Libra
Jupiter = BIGGIE SIZE ME in any aspect
Lucky Jupiter is her most highly aspected planet
Check this out: Margaret has 3 planets on the decan of Venus
Mercury
Saturn
Jupiter
Cha – ching ! *
Factoid: Margaret served on the board of Community Federal Credit Union in Plymouth from 1962 to 1984, and was president of the board for 19 of those years.The assets of the Credit Union increased from $1 million to $40 million during those years.
So the surprise scholarship with free car care products for the gearhead who started driving on a Model T and has lovingly restored a :
– 1931 Ford Model A
– 2003 Cadillac DeVille
– 1906 Model N Ford
– 1930 convertible Cadillac DeVille
Uranus in Capricorn (business degree) on the decan of Mercury (octaves of thinking, learning, intuition) trine Toro Venus which trines Jupiter Libra (free money for going back to school).
Margaret is a real sweetheart, Venus ! * Jupiter ! Cancer Sun ! and has donated much time (see Saturn on Venus), volunteered for the Red Cross, has donated scads of money to her community, helping build a library, a historical museum, and she also runs a private grantmaking foundation.

Leonardo da Vinci was an amazing Italian Renaissance polymath: painter, sculptor, architect, musician, scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer. and that is just scratching the surface…
He conceptualized a helicopter, a tank, concentrated solar power, a calculator, the double hull and outlined a rudimentary theory of plate tectonics, and drew one of the first scientific drawings of a fetus in utero. (wiki)
Taurus Sun with Toro Venus in applying trine to Neptune in Libra at MC, genius creative expression ! Sagittarius rising – expressive and expansive – Jupiter is in Pisces 3rd of learning conjunct Moon.
Aquarius Mars trine Saturn exalted in Libra 10th: Leonardo was an idea machine – invent, conceptualize, research, sketch, design and build futuristic machinery.
The illustration below seemed appropriate for the Uranus, Pluto, Venus T-square.
Freaky drawing of coffin contraption with gyroscope ! ? Dunno, is weird and fascinating whatever it is.
::::::::::
Eighth house Pluto and Uranus – highly observant – he learned anatomy in detail through dissecting cadavers (Venus quintile Pluto). He drew detailed bone studies, and the pregnancy drawing you see above, as well as detailed drawings of architecture, water devices, animals, faces of rage, deformities, and machines of his own design.
Saturn in 10 wants to know how everything works, Neptune at MC absorbs the world like a sponge. Neptune and Saturn in 10 are both opposite Aries Mercury in 4. Mercury trines Leo Pluto – he certainly changed the world through creative expression.
Curiously, most of Leonardo’s writings are in mirror-image cursive, perhaps it was easier because he was left-handed, or maybe it was for reasons of secrecy, perhaps both, no one knows.
As you can see, his drawings and sketches were extremely detailed and highly researched – Virgo precision at MC and Aries Mercury in trine to Pluto in Leo.
The animation above delineates the sacred geometry of the golden rectangle, which is more easily seen in colored portions below. Da Vinci and others (including the architect Palladio) helped to revive this knowledge of sacred geometry and its application after the so-called “Dark Ages.”
Apart from the monks in Ireland, most of the older knowledge was preserved by Arabic culture that translated older Greek and Roman works into Arabic. These works were retranslated back into Latin and other European languages by scholars working in cross-cultural universities in renaissance Spain.
::::::
You can see above the geometry da Vinci applied to sketching human faces. Obviously mirror image writing and building with polarities (Uranus sextile Venus in 6th) appealed with Mars in Aquarius in trine to Saturn in the tenth of achievement.
This mathematical precision (sacred geometry) is applied to Mona Lisa below, I am sure there is another for the Last Supper floating around as well. I will look, pop into comments.
Which brings me to the point of this post.
Mercury is numbers, counting, perceptions.
Saturn is mathematics.
Saturn
(traditional ruler of the fixed sign Aquarius)
is form and matter – the building blocks – earth plane..
Uranus is the higher octave of numbers, counting and perceptions.
Uranus is spirals.
The geometric electrical energy grid that connects all life on earth.
Which leads me to believe Uranus rules sacred geometry as well as Saturn.
Thoughts . . .?
A fun morph.
Leonardo isasteroid 3000.
Da Vinci has it exact conjunct North Node in Capricorn.
Consider Leonardo your renaissance point !
Currently Leonardo is at 10 Cancer.
Dark Moon in Cancer is at 10 degrees as I write this ! Interesting it is dovetailing into the renaissance T- Square Action, yes ?
Venus will soon follow to conjunct – she is at 6 Cancer.
xo
Just in case I haven’t pitched you enough science yet…
If you want some supercalifragilisticsciencesacredgeometry
to chew on awhile – here’s a porterhouse steak, pack a blade – it’s a biggie !
Venus is conjunct Moon in Taurus at 22 degrees, and that’s exact opposite my natal Neptune. I love this photo (Neptune rules film and art) and this is my home (Moon rules) and a spider’s web (Neptune rules nets) that has a mysterious little teenie weenie web on the far upper right.
Moon & Neptune rule mysteries and mine are opposite each other in my natal.
Anyway, my lunch is over, but I am curious…how are you Feeling (Moon) about Art, Love and Money all the things Venus rules ?
Taurus says it’s mine, so whatever your feelings are, Own Them !
