Overview: What’s happening this week with Venus, the goddess of love and relationships, and Eros, the god of erotic love.

Venus is in Aries, and we want to push ahead in love, but Venus is retrograde this week (until April 15th), so something is holding us back. It’s time to review our relationship needs and our affections. We’re bound to figure out who and what we want by the end of this retrograde cycle, but this is a process and we need to be patient. Both Mars and Eros are in patient Taurus, and this helps! Earthy desires are in focus, as well as an increased need for consistency and some predictability in our love/sex lives.

Overview

Venus is in the sign of Aries.

Venus is in Aries from February 3-April 2 and then April 28-June 6. In Aries, love is spontaneous and direct. The chase is very exciting to us under this fiery influence. We are bold, fresh, and a little impatient when it comes to matters of the heart. We don’t look back with Aries energy. We are not interested in saying sorry or dwelling on the past. It’s a brand new day! It’s time to make things work right now. Aries is known for a love of the chase and the conquest, but Aries love can be longstanding as long as it remains relatively fresh. Aries is blunt–there’s no sugar-coating with Aries. This can sting, but rarely is Aries energy mean or petty. Saying it like it is is important to Aries. Desires are strong and expressed spontaneously, enthusiastically, and directly. Aries prefers to seduce rather than be seduced, to chase rather than be chased.

Venus is in a Fire sign and Mars is in an Earth sign this week. Fire and Earth are incompatible elements. On romantic and social levels, we are spontaneous and fiery. Sexually, we are more sensual and slow-moving, however. We willingly take the lead in matters of the heart, and we look for a partner who is exciting, original, and passionate. We are probably easier to please on a sexual level than on a romantic level. Romantically speaking, we love the chase and the conquest. Sexually speaking, we are rather content and even traditional. Although passionate and sexual, we are also quite independent and we’re not inclined to want to cuddle the night away. We need our space! Subtlety may be lacking in our sexual expression during this period. We can be surprisingly blunt in our approach to love. Our needs for both spontaneity and forethought in relationships may seem conflicting—and at times this will be a challenge. However, if we can maintain a relationship that is secure and adventurous at the same time, we will be at our happiest.

The above combination does work better since Venus is retrograde and can benefit from the patience of Mars in Taurus, and also because Venus and Mars are in mutual reception.

A New Moon occurs in Aries on March 27th. With the New Moon in Aries, a cycle that is in force until April 26th, we may make some Aries-related resolutions for our love relationships: learn to assert ourselves and our needs without being abrasive, and discover ways to learn how to rely on ourselves and to be happy about doing so—it will go a long way towards finding inner happiness when we know that we can be self-sufficient without blaming others for not helping us out. Aries reminds us of the importance of acting on our impulses and believing in ourselves. The old adage that we must love ourselves before we can love others fits here. Over-identifying with our partnership, or resorting to appeasing a partner, are things that can undermine a relationship. We need to learn that we can make it on our own so that we can bring back healthy self-confidence to our relationships. Remember, if we don’t feel strong as individuals, we run the risk of unhealthy patterns of co-dependency, jealousy, and passive-aggressiveness in our partnerships. Awareness of our own needs and the ability to assert them in a non-confrontational manner can only serve to strengthen our bonds.

This week: Venus is retrograde again this week (until April 15th – in Aries until April 2nd and then in Pisces). This week, Venus is parallel Uranus on Monday and Tuesday, encouraging experimentation and new approaches to relating. On Friday and Saturday, tensions integrating desires and values can lead to problems between lovers. Hot-cold signals are likely now.

Eros is in Taurus this week.

Eros is in Taurus until April 2nd, 2017. ( in ) Eros in the sensual, earthy, and solid sign of Taurus brings sensuality as well as possessiveness into our sexual styles. Sexual possessiveness can be exciting if it isn’t taken to extremes. Unlike Eros in Aries, competition is not a turn-on under Eros in Taurus. Certainty is! We can be somewhat “primitive” in our desires and not especially attracted to too much sexual intricacy. Simplicity is the biggest turn-on. Although we tend to need plenty of physical contact with Eros in Taurus, self-love is also a strong tendency. Steady, certain, and regular partnering is the goal. Our sexual natures are rooted in the world of the five senses. 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 Tuesday, March 28th, at approximately 7:40 PM EDT, until Wednesday, March 29th, at approximately 8:05 AM EDT, while the Moon is in Aries. Note that Venus is retrograde during this window and that the Moon is still a little too close to the Sun for most of this period to be objective. 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 Aries, and we want to push ahead in love, but Venus is retrograde this week (until April 15th), so something is holding us back. It’s time to review our relationship needs and our affections. We’re bound to figure out who and what we want by the end of this retrograde cycle, but this is a process and we need to be patient. Both Mars and Eros are in patient Taurus, and this helps! Earthy desires are in focus, as well as an increased need for consistency and some predictability in our love/sex lives.
