Aries and Aries Ascendant: Until February 3rd, Venus is in the sign just behind yours, placing the goddess of love in your solar twelfth house.

Overview
Venus is in the sign of Pisces this week.
Venus is in Pisces from January 3-February 3. Like Aquarius, Pisces love is universal. However, Pisces draws no bounds in love. With Venus in Pisces, we have compassion (and perhaps attraction) for those who are left out, overlooked, or victimized. We are self-sacrificing, and we have a hard time setting up borders. The walls go down, we have a hard time saying no (especially if our compassion is engaged), but we are also prone to avoiding all that makes us feel uncomfortable. Wishful thinking is one expression of Venus in Pisces. We can too easily believe what we want to believe. People can be hard to pin down, and love is hard to define under this influence. Pisces never sees the world in black-and-white terms. Rather, Pisces sees all the colors of the rainbow. With the goddess of love in Pisces, our love is all-embracing, we are able to forgive and understand, we are seducible and seductive, and we show compassion to our partners. Venus in Pisces is tender and affectionate, although hard to reach nevertheless, as there is a longing for something that is hard to define and hard to satisfy. Borders and boundaries blur under Venus in Pisces. The shadow side of this position is allowing ourselves to be victimized or deluded, as well as evasiveness.
Venus is in a Water sign and Mars is in a Water sign. With both Venus and Mars in Water signs (both are in Pisces), we come alive in warm, nurturing, and mutually respectful relationships. Deep down, we fear getting hurt, and rejection is something we try very much to avoid, as it can run deep. We are more sensitive and warm lovers. Not always communicative in bed, we value partners who seem to know how to please us intuitively. We are not always direct about what we want. We need to feel safe and our partners must demonstrate loyalty and commitment to us in order for us to be at your best and most secure.
A New Moon occurs in Aquarius on January 27th. With the New Moon in Aquarius, a cycle that is in force until February 26th, we may make some Aquarius-related resolutions for our love relationships. With this Moon cycle (from January 27th to February 26th), it’s a good time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Water Bearer–individualistic, independent, humanitarian, inventive, original, intellectual, idealistic, cool, friendly–and consider how to positively incorporate these qualities into our lives. Now, we can focus on solving problems that require thinking “outside of the box”, look to the future with a positive and hopeful vision, brainstorm and socialize, give our emotions and passions a “break” in order to develop some objectivity, and reach out to others. Bringing a spirit of friendship to our romantic relationships comes naturally now.
This week: On Tuesday and Wednesday, Venus comes together with Chiron and we are open to romantic feelings, and more willing to act upon them. This is a good time to make a resolution to repair, heal, and improve relationships. A quincunx between Venus and Jupiter on Wednesday to Thursday can point to difficulties managing our expectations of others. On Friday, one of the least favorable influences for meeting new people or for making advances occurs – a square between Venus and Saturn. While it’s not an ideal time for new beginnings, it’s a time for learning more about our fears and inhibitions with regards to love and relationships. If we believe we won’t get what we want in love, we attract negative situations and challenges in our relationships.
Eros is in Aries this week.
Eros is in Aries from January 16th, 2017 to February 25th, 2017. (
in 
) Eros in the energetic, leading sign of Aries adds much energy to—and takes away patience from—our erotic lives. Under this influence, we instinctively and quickly become infatuated. Our sexual attractions are formed quickly and we get off on the sensations of the moment in an intense manner. Our passions rise and fall very quickly. We are not as giving and emotional in our sexual expression, but we are certainly passionate while it lasts. We are attached to the sensations of the moment and we may treat our partners as objects, or as an extension of ourselves. We may prefer to do the pursuing in relationships and may be addicted to the conquest. Read more about Eros signs.
Timing and the Moon: Best Times to Have a First Date This Week: According to the principles of timing with the Moon, a window of opportunity occurs from Thursday, January 26th, at approximately 2:30 PM EST, until Friday, January 27th, at approximately 2:15 AM EST, while the Moon is in Capricorn. However, this window occurs just before the New Moon and as Venus and Saturn are moving towards a square, making it better for bringing a quick close to something rather than new beginnings. Void of Course Moon periods should probably be avoided (see Void of Course Moon periods). [See also Timing with the Moon: Relationships]
Bottom Line: Venus is in compassionate, open-minded Pisces, and with Mars in Pisces as well, there’s a wide umbrella of desirable experiences we’re entertaining now. This can be a dreamy period for our love life. Even so, Eros is in fiery Aries and we can be more assertive (and possibly impatient) about going after what and who he want.
