Next up is Venus for these martian people:
Venus the planet of love, beauty and luxury rules the 2nd (Taurus) and 7th (Libra) house for an Aries ascendant. These are the natural 2nd and 7th signs as well and so easier to interpret. How Venus behaves for this ascendant will primarily depend on where it is placed and who is aspecting it. Also the placement of Venus in a house will signify how you would relate to your family, material wealth (2nd house issues) and your spouse or business associates (7th house).
The 2nd house in a natal chart represents many things including immediate family, material wealth, a person’s voice and throat etc. This being ruled by Venus implies that an aries ascendant loves beauty and luxury. They love to have material possessions and adore their family. Depending on where venus is placed, their expression to show this will be modified. Eg, if Venus is placed in 4th house, 2nd lord placed there will make such people work on improving their home environment such that they can provide the best and most comfortable living environment for their family. This being 3rd from itself will make them take a lot of effort in fulfilling this desire.
Similarly, the placement of Venus will also affect who and what they like in a life partner. Venus is naturally a significator of the 7th house and for this ascendant it also rules the house. This also explains why Aries ascendant like beautiful partners. They might probably be more inclined towards physical beauty than others. They also like getting pampered and complimented by their partners. Venus plays the role of how their partner should be. These people love to have non-confrontational, non-aggressive people surrounding them. Now where this Venus is placed will show how they might behave, or find their partner and relate to them. Eg: if Venus being the 7th lord is placed in the 10th house will show that these people might find their spouses in their work environment, their partners might help them in their professional domain or atleast that’s what they would want.
Based on these characteristics a person with Aries ascendant should be able to use his/her Venus such that it makes their life journey smoother. In addition, Venus is exalted in the sign of Pisces which is their 12th house and debilitated in the sign of Virgo their 6th house. This gives a lot more insight on how to deal with your Venus and make it more beneficial for you.
Even though Venus is a natural benefic, for an Aries ascendant it becomes a functional malefic due to its rulership. Hence it becomes even more important for one to know how to deal with this planet.
Naturally exalted in the 12th house implies, in its highest form for Aries ascendant Venus wants to let go of all possessions and just merge with the unconscious realm of peace. It is naturally debilitated in the 6th house of Virgo, what this shows is an Aries ascendant person should not use a Venusian approach when it comes to dealing with conflicts, taking care of daily life struggles etc. They cannot use diplomacy, idleness, waiting for someone else to do their work. If they do, they might end up hurting themselves. It is this aspect which makes such people deal with life struggles head on. They need to handle conflicts aggressively, take action as soon as possible and use their problem solving skills for their daily work. Once they are able to do that, they can then enjoy the calmness of the 12th house that Venus wants.
For such people, if too much Venusian diplomacy is used in their daily life, it can block their ready to take action Mars which is what they should actually be using and cause hurdles in life. They need to activate their Mars (with the restriction of Saturn) to fulfill their duties. Once they do that they can enjoy their Venus by giving in to that peace and relaxation that the 12th house has to offer.
That’s all for now, will be back with how mercury is for an aries ascendant so stay tuned..
