Venus opposition Mars
Venus opposition Mars creates an intense emotional life resulting in equally intense relationships. When you love someone you express your strong feelings through deeply passionate and sometimes dramatic displays of affection. Although this is normal for you and a sign of how much you love someone, the other person may think you are coming on too strong and feel threatened. You are best suited to a partner who is vibrant and not too submissive, someone to match your intense passions. Even with such a partner, you will probably still experience a stormy relationship. On the positive side, you do calm down just as quickly as you let off steam. The direct way in which you show your affections can turn into an asset because you put as much intensity into making up as you do into escalating any little irritations. This is a very physical planetary aspect, and your high energy does need other forms of release besides sex. The intense internal conflict between love and hate can result in a very distinct creative style expressed in sport, entertainment, art, music, and dance. The dynamic physicality of this aspect can even manifest as distinctive or exaggerated facial features, or pronounced musculature of the body.
Being born with Venus in opposition to your natal Mars, you feel a dynamic tension within that leads you to learn powerful lessons about yourself through relationship struggles. You are learning how to assert your own needs and values while balancing the needs and values of those you relate with. This means learning how to maintain your sense of independence, creating time alone for restoration and rejuvenation, while also being able to acknowledge the other person’s needs. In this way, you will be able to embody the integrity of your own inner values without becoming overwhelmed by the values of those you are attracted to and admire. At the same time, your challenges within relationships will help you learn how to set aside your own needs at times when it’s more important to give others what they need. As you learn how to balance this, you will also develop your capacity to successfully express your values and fulfil your needs through societal structures and roles you take on within your community.
Whether it’s an infatuation or a full-blown love affair, relationships get these people out of bed in the morning. They are passionate people who seem to need an active romantic and sexual life to drive them. Often, this area of life is somewhat challenging, especially in youth. As much as they want to be involved in a passionate affair, their timing can be off and/or it’s difficult to find a relationship that mirrors their strong desires and expectations. Especially when they are young, there can be a real awkwardness in their social skills–this may or may not be apparent to others, but these people most definitely feel it themselves. These people are highly creative and generally are driven to express that creativity. Their passion for romance is often channelled into their creative output. For example, challenges in relationships may be a large part of the drive behind their poetry, music, or other art. Love and hate are very much mixed together for people with Venus square or opposition Mars in their birth charts. They are prone to love-hate relationships with others, likely because their passions are such that the old saying “there’s a fine line between love and hate” rings especially true. Some level of competitiveness, anger, frustration, or angst is present in their romantic relationships. In some cases, abuse is present, either in the form of receiving or giving it. Although they are quick to anger, they are generally just as quick to forget about it.
The Venus opposition Mars aspect means that you have an intense emotional life. You have super charged relationships, and the line between love and hate is often quite thin. In fact, it’s hard for you to know if you love someone or hate someone with Venus opposition Mars. You are deeply passionate and sometimes dramatic, depending on the sign. You express your feelings of affection quite strongly. This means that you come on strong and fast, and you may have intense, stormy relationships. With Venus opposition Mars, you may experience a level of competitiveness, frustration, or even anger in your romantic relationships. At the worst, your relationships can turn abusive, but you can also solve these issues by getting a handle on your aggression. You will need a partner who isn’t submissive but who also knows how to communicate and work out problems constructively. With a bit of effort, you can turn your aggression into assertiveness, helping you to smooth over any problems. Venus opposition Mars endows you with a lot of physical energy. Some of this energy can be released sexually, but it’s also a good idea to find physical ways to burn off excess energy, such as running or working out. Even an active job can help release pent up energy. Ultimately with Venus opposition Mars, you must learn how to control your emotions and release your energy appropriately in order to have successful relationships filled with deep communication.
