Mars In Taurus Venus In Cancer Compatibility

[Aide Broeckel]

Writingthe monthly Sexoscopes for Dame (read yours here!) offers me plenty of time to study the energy of the planets and how they effect our love lives. Many people are constantly asking me about compatibility using sun signs. I believe you should be looking at moon signs, venus signs, and mars signs.

The moon sign is our emotional self, how we respond to the world through our feelings, and how we desire to be nurtured. For example, I am a Scorpio moon - I seek intense connections, deep feelings, and feel most nurtured through sex. My partner is a Cancer moon - moody, sensitive, emotional, caring, and compassionate. Although our sun signs are Leo (mine) and Aquarius (his) aren't the most compatible, our moon signs are both water signs, meaning we give and receive nurture and care in very similar ways.

Lets talk about Venus! Venus is considered a personal planet because she is so close to the sun. Disclaimer - I call Venus 'she' because Venus represents feminine energy and Mars represents masculine energy, neither have anything to do with gender! Feminine energy is receptive, like a magnet it draws energy toward it, while Masculine energy is active and projects energy outward. Our personal planets are Mercury, Venus, and Mars. They are so close to the sun, they effect us specifically in our chart, while outer planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are farther away from the sun and effect entire generations (more on that in another post!)

Back to Venus! Venus rules the way we give and receive love, our values around relationships, what we desire in romance, what we are attracted to, how we feel beautiful, and also a great indicator for special talents in earning money! If we consider Venus to be an indicator of our love language, we can have a much easier time identifying what we'd like out of our relationships and how to attract partners who can understand your needs and you can understand theirs.

What are love languages? We all speak our own combination of love languages, no one person identifies with only one. There are 5 identified love languages: Words of Affirmation, Physical Touch, Acts of Service, Quality Time, and Gifts as written by Gary Chapman in his 1992 best seller The Five Love Languages: how to express heartfelt commitment to your mate. I'm sure we all identify with most of these, but there are 2-3 that resonate more than others.

In astrology, we can also look at the 5th & 7th house signs to also determine the qualities in a partner we would respond to best. What I mean, is, for example - my 7th house signs are Aries & Taurus. I'm not going to look to marry an Aries or a Taurus, rather, I'm going to look for the characteristics of those signs in my long term love. Aries being someone who is an individual, independent, brave, and fiery. Taurus would be someone who is stable, romantic, and sensual, that enjoys the finer things in life.

Air Venus signs - Gemini, Libra, & Aquarius are interested in communication, they respond to mental stimulation before they become physical. Words of affirmation would be a primary love language. A serious relationship would require a partner who was an excellent communicator, and offered encouraging words, compliments, witty banter, and some very sexy pillow talk to ensure long term success.

Aquarius - Quality Time, as Aquarius ancient ruler was Saturn before Uranus was discovered, Aquarius may prefer their space, but when they are with their partner they are present and attentive

Earth Venus signs - Virgo, Capricorn, & Taurus are all stable and physical signs that respond to stability and dependability. Acts of Service would be the primary love language. Serious relationships would require partners who express their love by devotion to service in mundane ways, such as cleaning the house for their partner who has been working overtime.

Fire Venus Signs - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius are all fast paced, intensely action oriented signs that respond to a partner that does not hesitate to make their intentions known. Physical Touch would be the primary love language, as they prefer a long term partner that demonstrates their affection in bold ways.

Water Venus Signs - Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces are all signs that process the world through feelings and emotional response. They respond to a partner that is aware of their sensitivity and can hold space for them to process their emotions in productive ways. Quality time would be a great primary for water signs, to know their partner isn't rushing or forcing them.

Cancer - Gifts, Cancers are sentimental and love having a physical reminder of what and who is the most special to them, gifts can also mean food, Cancers feel very nurtured through cooking

I will be writing a separate post about Mars and how they are directly related to how we fight, argue, and approach sex. I'm curious to hear about your unique experiences with Venus in love and romance. Please feel free to comment with your Venus sign, your partners, and your thoughts! Hope this helps in the quest to better understand ourselves and each other.

I am very fascinated by Astrology and if there were a school or a college that would give me a degree in Astrology, I would really want to get one. I love Tarot cards and horoscopes and I take zodiac sign compatibility seriously!

but really, I am totally an aries, and my ex is totally a taurus, and it was not soul-crushingly beautiful and we are not lesbros forever. even though i totally wish all of this could be true 100% of the time.

As another Aries (April 15th, so not a cuspian) who dated a Taurus, I had literally the exact same train of thought. It was soul-crushingly beautiful at first, and then it was just soul-crushing. Maybe one day we can all be lesbros. Who knows.

Anyway, astrology CAN have very negative impacts, like in the case of women in India who insist on risky early cesareans so that their children can be born on a particularly auspicious day, or like when my mom who lost her job and has no money spends $75 buying an astrological chart online for me because she thinks I need that information to make choices for some reason.

Never believed in these until I read a personal profile on my sign and I am text book Libra and too diplomatic and indecisive for my own good.

Always wondered though about premature kids though- my girlfriend is a Leo by birthday but a Scorpio by predicted due date and she fits a Scorpio profile better? Veryyy confusing.

So? In Renaissance times, astronomy and astrology were almost inseparable, and Johannes Kepler, who proposed that the planets have elliptical orbits around the sun, worked as court astrology to a succession of German emperors. You could say that our knowledge about the structure of the solar system and the motion of the planets comes from astrology, but that does not give any validation to beliefs in astrology.

I also still think that requires belief, belief that the symbols in those systems have meaning, that they are a useful way to organise your thoughts, that certain archetypes can tell us certain things about the human condition, etc.

Of course, there are other ways of thinking, but in this particular context, the concept of abstract and concrete thinking seems to illustrate the difference as to the nature of how belief can be viewed, or not.

Very lucky Taurus sun signs to be with you. I am not a Taurus but sun, venus, juipter and mercury are in Scorpio. my moon is in aquarius. You are a beautiful woman on every level. hopefully the possessive nature of the Taurus is safe for you. I have a lot of aquarius in my chart. Freedom is needed in relationships. Good luck beautiful

Im a libra with sagittarius rising sign and a capricorn moon so other can get a little confused once they really get to know me and see my inner capricorn control freak that I try desperately to ignore. But my libra sun and sagittarius rising sign blend pretty well.

I have not yet been in a relationship but I agree as far as friends go with everything you said. I have had a lot of tumultuous friendships with aquarius sun signs though but that may be in part because of my capricorn moon. Also even though I am a libra, I am not the life of the party and dont like too much attention.

anyways, im rambling. basically I just wanted to say that I absolutely love this article and I will keep your suggestions in the back of my head :)

Sag with a Leo rising, a moon in Scorpio and Venus in Aquarius

I am amazed I even remembered it all.

and the description isnt me at all, but we shall blame Aspergers for that, and not the hard science that is astrology, which would place blame on the Venus in Aquarius :D
