VENUS IN CANCER 7 MAY 2023

The caring partner or the stingy lover…from socialite to motherly

The most-motherly of signs welcomes the most loving of planets and it looks like we’re in for just over three weeks of tender, caring love or are we? Especially since Venus will remain OOB until the 2nd of June.

One of the images of Venus in Cancer is certainly that of the romantic figure forever in love with Prince or Princess Charming. Venus, of course, doesn’t rule only love, it also covers, among many things, finances, self-esteem and all the things that gratify us. Venus responds to everything that makes us feel good, comfortable and happy. In traditional astrology Venus is known as the Lesser Traditionally a benefic and fortunate planet. The sign of Cancer, ruled by the Moon and its fluctuating phases, lends a rather restless nature to any transiting planet.

So, in Cancer, we may find not only a clingy, maternal Venus but also a fickle one, never completely happy with his or her lot, never sure about how much to give unconditionally.  Venus here is more compassionate than actually physically passionate. Viewing this placement from the a “giving” point of view we might like to remember that the glyph for Cancer is a crab and (hermit) crabs retreat into their shells when their security is threatened likewise Venus in Cancer never gives totally (be it about love or money)….self-security is far more important than surrendering completely and ending up without defence or moneyless.

During its stay in Cancer Venus will make the following aspects:

12-13 May: trine Saturn (06°11’) – a supporting aspect if you need to sort out romantic or financial matters.

26 May: sextile Uranus (19°53’) – an opportunity to meet someone totally new and exciting or to earn some extra money.

2 June: true Neptune (27°28’) – a very creative and loving transit…just be careful that your eyeglasses aren’t too rosy!
