Venus and Mars Combinations
Romantic & Sexual Styles
What are the signs of Venus and Mars in your natal chart?
Venus-Mars combinations reveal much about a person’s romantic and sexual styles. Each Venus-Mars combination is interpreted in terms of elements (Fire, Earth, Air, and Water) and is then refined in terms of signs.
Thus Venus in Aries (a Fire sign) and Mars in Taurus (an Earth sign), for example, will have the same elemental interpretation as Venus in Leo (a Fire sign) and Mars in Capricorn (an Earth sign), but a different specific interpretation.

Venus in Cancer, Mars in Virgo
Your Venus is in a Water sign and your Mars is in an Earth sign.
Venus in Water, Mars in Earth (Romantic Water, Earthy Desires): You are dependable, loving, and solid in your romantic involvements. You take care of the person you love, and you are generally quite loyal and committed once your heart has been won. Very sexual, you have strong needs for physical expression of love.
You feel most loved with physical “proof” of commitment, and you work hard at making your relationships work on a physical and practical level. You require, more than most, physical presence, steadiness, reliability, and comfort in your relationships. Concerned about your partners’ emotions, your expression of affection feels solid and very cozy.
You are not the most communicative of lovers, however. Oftentimes, you expect your partner to intuit what you need rather than request it outright. Serious about love, you are not one to take a relationship lightly or to throw it away without first doing what you can to make it work. You tend to believe in taking your time when it comes to developing a relationship and to lovemaking itself.
As sensitive as you are in matters of the heart, essentially you are much stronger and persevering than you appear. Partners who express loyalty, respectability, and some fragility are most appealing to you.
Venus and Mars in compatible signs:
Your romantic and sexual natures are similar, but varied enough to make your love life quite exciting. For the most part, you know what you want in love relationships. Your charm is subtle and natural.

More specifically: Venus in Cancer, Mars in Virgo:
