4 Zodiacs Whose Love Lives Will Be Transformed When Venus Is In Libra

One month ago, Venus entered the analytical sign of Virgo, where it feels out of sorts. Virgo energy is practical and cautious, placing restrictions on the planet of love that seeks to expand our romantic and free-spirited idealism.

If your relationships with other people felt somewhat cold or distant throughout the month of October, or you were struggling to balance your love life with your work life, you’ll be relieved to know that this period of relative tension is over.

On November 8th, Venus ingressed into Libra. Venus finds its exaltation in Libra, a sign that exudes natural harmony and rejoices at aesthetic beauty. Libra is committed to the love of love itself.

This welcome reprieve from stagnancy in the area of relationships will be felt everywhere, but there are a few specific signs that will be shaken the most by this transit—either starting a new love affair, taking their relationship to the next level, or experiencing the seven-year itch.

Aries

With Libra entering your seventh house of relationships, Aries, you are inevitably going to experience this transit as a highly positive and dreamily romantic time. Barring other aspects in your birth chart that might complicate matters, this is fairly straightforward: everyone with an Aries ascendant will be seeing big relationship changes around this time. If you are partnered, a proposal is possible; if you aren’t, you might just meet someone who is worth the long-haul investment. Venusian influence over your natal second house might bring you unexpected financial blessings, but be aware that this is likely to challenge or at least complicate your closest relationships. If you suspect jealousy or competitiveness, take your partner out for an expensive dinner or surprise them with a lavish gift—show them that you’re willing to share the wealth.

Gemini

You might not meet the one, Gemini, but you’re definitely going to be well-liked with Libra entering your fifth house of short-term affairs and pleasure. If you’re looking to casually date during this period, it’s an excellent time to get yourself back out there and play the field. If you’re already in a relationship, you will be startled by how many other offers suddenly appear on the table. Since Venus also rules your twelfth house of the subconscious and your undoing, this might make you feel like it’s a better idea to just stay at home in order to avoid complicating matters. Single Gemini risings will notice a push-pull energy: while you’re surrounded by potential lovers, you don’t really want any of them disrupting your peace. Your life could begin to feel very much like a literal manifestation of that adage we’ve all heard: You’ll find someone when you stop looking. Embrace the corny ‘90s rom-com vibe of it all.

Aquarius

If you’re traveling abroad this fall, Aquarius, you might meet a mysterious foreigner. If you’ve chosen to go back to school, you’ll probably find romance in the classroom. The cultural, philosophical, and religious differences between you and your partner will ignite an awakening within you. You’re already a lover of intellectual foreplay, and any love affair you find yourself entangled in around this time is likely to stimulate you mentally. However, with Venus also ruling your fourth house of home and family, your roots and place of origin might repel your partner in some way, and your relatives probably won’t approve. Don’t be surprised if a relationship that feels exciting in theory doesn’t manage to hold up in reality. If you aren’t willing to move to Italy to be with your study-abroad partner, or you’re not willing to convert to their religion in order to get married, it’s unlikely you’ll end up together. If nothing else, this relationship will be karmic and transformative, leaving you more emotionally and creatively fulfilled than before.

Pisces

After a month of romance in the marriage and partnership sector of your chart, Pisces, you’re about to get darker and go deeper. Venus is now transiting your eighth house of shared resources, sex, and all things taboo. If you started a chaste love affair last month, this will be the resolution of all of that thrilling sexual tension. If you got engaged during October, this is the time you’ll be discussing finances, debts, and prenups—all that uncomfortable, unromantic stuff associated with marriage. Your third house is also ruled by Venus, which typically grants you easy communication, but when faced with this awkward energy, you might find yourself feeling uncharacteristically reactive. Try to meet your partner where they’re at, understanding their specific needs and desires, and discuss the ways in which you can compromise. Any relationship worth fighting for will occasionally be challenged—and money is one of the number one reasons people break up. If you want to beat the statistics, try on some diplomacy.
