Jan 24, 2008 3 AM(Jan 23, 2008 to Jan 25, 2008) Venus in Capricorn conjunct Ascendant or Sun: The art of self-adornment and the art of love predominate now. You’re inclined to use sweetness, charm, sex appeal, or flirtatiousness to ease interactions. You’re also quite conscious of your body and appearance now and you may buy some new apparel, get your hair done, wear your best jewelry, or otherwise enhance your looks or surroundings. It feels good to lavish loving attention on yourself, and your relations with others benefit as a result. Someone beautiful could enter your life. Your love light shines brightly now and you wish to please and be pleased, to give and receive a personal, loving touch. Both romance and friendship are enhanced by warm expressions of appreciation, affection, and treats. Your sensitivity to aesthetics is heightened as well and anything ugly or impersonal will bother you more than usual. This is a time to beautify, embellish, decorate, or bring flowers. You attract admiration as well!

Jan 24, 2008 (Jan 23, 2008 to Feb 17, 2008) Venus 1st House: Where: Everywhere! How: By expressing your initiative, natural charm, friendliness, enhancing your beautiful features and personal style, expressing self-confidence. Relationships begun now are: ego-gratifying, dramatic, dynamic. Starts quickly and expectations are such that the relationship is exciting and maintains spontaneity. Enhancing love now: You’re inclined to use charm, gentle coaxing, and loving persuasion rather than more direct, forceful methods to get what you want. Charm, spontaneity.

Feb 17, 2008 (Feb 16, 2008 to Mar 12, 2008) Venus 2nd House: Where: Shopping, financial institutions, restaurants.

Mar 12, 2008 (Mar 11, 2008 to Mar 13, 2008) Venus sextiles Ascendant or Sun: A pleasant, affectionate, relaxed, or courteous attitude eases your interactions now, and may open doors or help lighten troubled situations that you’ve been working with lately. You can attract what you want and need, rather than pursue it forcefully or do it all yourself. This is an excellent time to go out on a date or ask someone for a favor, because you make a decidedly positive impression at the moment. Being with people and enjoying good times (especially with beautiful, charming, lighthearted people) is really what you want now. You’re in a friendly and cooperative mood which brings ease to your interactions and an overall sense of harmony to your day. Because you are open to love and friendly gestures, you will attract loving people into your experience.

Mar 12, 2008 (Mar 11, 2008 to Apr 6, 2008) Venus 3rd House: Where: In your neighborhood, schools, running errands, social functions, by phone or email, through lighthearted conversations.

Overall this is apt to bring ease and engender positive feelings in your interactions and personal relationships, but in a situation in which you need to move forcefully on your own behalf it could work against you. Social engagements, pleasure outings, and even shopping are favored. Your own values or way of expressing love and affection may differ from someone you encounter now, but because you are willing to please and smooth over differences, all is apt to turn out well. At the very least, you’ll learn something about a friend or lover that helps you understand them. In fact, your differences may be appealing. As long as egos don’t interfere, love will reign!

Apr 6, 2008 (Apr 5, 2008 to Apr 30, 2008) Venus 4th House: Where: In your home, through family connections, real estate activities, in someone else’s home. How: By expressing and emphasizing your domestic qualities, devotion, quietness, nurturing qualities. Relationships begun now are: emotionally charged, domestic, potentially long-lasting, somewhat private–they run deep. The relationship is likely to be sentimental, and perhaps somewhat insular.

Enhancing love now: Enjoying domestic activities together, nesting, spending quiet time together, expressing nurturing and protective traits towards a lover.

How: By expressing and emphasizing your diplomatic, tactful, compromising skills. Expressing a harmonious, cooperative, and pleasing manner.
