The placement of Venus in Aquarius indicates that you have a need for uniqueness and originality in your relationships and your value system. These are abstract concepts and pursuing these needs often leaves little room or inclination for emotion or the mundanely personal. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Venus in Aquarius are a result of your need to feel that you are a unique individual even when involved in a relationship. Having Venus in Aquarius, behavior and personality are also the result of your need to adopt a set of values that are independent, not conditioned by society’s expectations and reflective of your unique viewpoint.
The Venus in Aquarius placement is complex and contains inherent tensions. This is symbolized by the natural square between Aquarius and Venus-ruled Taurus in combination with the natural trine between Aquarius and Libra, which is also ruled by Venus. Aquarius is the Fixed Air sign. While Aquarius’ airiness promotes social interaction, it is generally not at the personal level at which Venus operates. Thus, with Venus in Aquarius, you need and want social interaction, but you may not have the full set of social skills to successfully engage in interpersonal relationships. Also, the fixed nature of the Aquarian character tends to inhibit the fluidity that is naturally inherent in the Venusian energy. This stiffness and rigidity also tends to impact your relationships and your values and perceptions.
Venus also symbolizes the anima in the psyche. Thus, if you are female with Venus in Aquarius, you are likely to model your femininity in order to incorporate characteristics typically associated with Aquarius. If you are male, you are likely to be attracted to someone who projects or embodies Aquarius-associated traits.
Insecurities
As an individual with Venus in Aquarius, in your insecurity, you are steadfastly committed to preserving your “independence” and individual “uniqueness” within your relationship(s) and as part of your value system.
Having Venus in Aquarius, you cannot understand the uniqueness of another, nor the needs of others for relationship “below” your level of self-abstraction. Your lack of understanding and appreciation for the personal causes you to become defensive in your relationship(s). This often manifests as an aloof or authoritarian attitude or a testy and suspicious nature. Also, in your conflict between the abstract and the personal, you sometimes develop a defense mechanism in which you are guarding the “higher good” against messy and imperfect “selfish” considerations of others.
Venus in the 5th House:
With Venus in the 5th House you are likely to enjoy a robust and expressive sense of beauty and relationship. The 5th House affords the Venusian function a chance to fully develop in elaborate fashion. Here, Venus' energy can be completely expressed and developed to its mature potential. In the 5th House, your evaluation of your sense inputs and your awareness of and involvement in relationship become self-conscious, but in a fresh and innocent way. Having Venus in the 5th House, you not only become concerned with how you value and relate to your physical and social environment, but with what you can do with the Venusian function to embellish your persona. This involves a certain amount of awareness of how others perceive and validate your tastes and judgment and your way of relating. You will generally endeavor to display your most positive side in these matters, perhaps hiding your shadow to avoid disapproval.
As an individual with Venus in the 5th House, you can be expected to express your sense of beauty and form. Whatever your tastes, especially in the arts, music, drama, poetry, etc., these should be evident to those who know you, for they will be expressed. If you have any talent in these areas, you will probably try your hand at artistic creativity. Having Venus in the 5th House, you will at least wish you could express yourself creatively and will likely appreciate those who do. You are also not likely to be shy about expressing your opinions about what you dislike or find ugly.
Insecurities
With Venus in the 5th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will be unwilling to surrender yourself to another, or to purify your values so that they are selfless. This will lead you to hold back your self-expression. The values that you do express will be false and superficial. Your sense of beauty will be flawed by selfishness and your taste will be for show only - an attempt to gain others' approval. Overcompensating for your insecurity, you may be vociferous in expressing your likes and dislikes but you care neither for the sensitivities of others nor for your own true affections.
In relationships, with Venus in the 5th House, you will hold yourself back, fearful that what you express may be rejected. Out of timidity, you may also fail to express your tastes and preferences. You may therefore appear to others to be a shallow personality, without passion, without a sense of yourself and without much to give in a relationship.
Evaluation Focus
As an individual with Venus in the 5th House, your evaluative and judgmental function is focused in the creative arena. For this reason, you may have a well-developed (or at least pronounced) sense of artistic taste. You are likely to be particularly appreciative of the artistic expression of form, beauty and harmony. In fact, more than others, you are likely to be sensitive to the form inherent in a work of art.
Having Venus in the 5th House, you may also be very focused on expressing your judgment and taste. You are likely to make known to others what your likes or dislikes may be. This may be done directly (verbally) or indirectly through an open (sometimes ostentatious) display of taste.
