Pisces
Those with their Venus in Pisces are often in love with the notion of being in love. Not very real, eh? Call it fantasy if you will, but those enjoying this placement are sensitive, compassionate and romantic souls who simply march to the beat of a different drummer. Much like the Fish who grace their House of Love, these folks love to swim in the sea of love. It’s wet, wild and wonderful in there! Even so, this intense desire to be in love can lead to seeing what they want to see, not what is really there. How can this be? Isn’t love supposed to be beautiful and true? Once again, a bit of fantasy mixed with reality, but that’s what happens when Venus is visited by Pisces. As well, those with their Venus in Pisces see love and sexuality as spiritual experiences: a state of love is not worth achieving unless it is accompanied by complete transcendence and bliss. Not everyone can swim in this sea, but for those who can, it’s a complete experience. Having your Venus in Pisces may mean that you spend a lot of time explaining yourself, especially where affairs of the heart are concerned. That’s okay, because these people would only want to be with someone who appreciates, and understands, their often misunderstood soul.
love meter
Sun Opposition Pluto with an orb between 1 and 3 degrees
Power struggles plague your relationships. Either you become the dominant partner out of a fear of being controlled or you become very passive, controlling indirectly through guilt or manipulation. Your father may have been emotionally abusive to you.
Venus Opposition Saturn with an orb between 1 and 3 degrees
Since you were a child you have felt you could not just be yourself and be loved. You had to earn your love in some way by being or doing something special. You are far more self-protective than most people realize. Your best love partners are also work partners.
Mercury Conjunct Mars with an orb between 3 and 5 degrees
Since you tend to be rather irritable and sharp-tongued at times you require a partner with a sense of humor who is not too thin-skinned. You are bright, curious and restless and enjoy the company of those who are equally high-spirited and enterprising.
Sun Trine Neptune with an orb between 3 and 5 degrees
One of your great strengths is your sensitivity. You tune in easily to the psyches of other people and, while you may not notice the color of their eyes, have an almost eerie understanding of their private inner worlds. Your close ties are very private.
Mercury Trine Jupiter with an orb between 3 and 5 degrees
You have a quality people trust and you are often sought after as a confidante or an advisor. You have high moral and ethical standards and it is imperative that anyone you’re close to is a person of the highest integrity. You prefer well-educated people.
Aries Friendship Profile
As fire can be a fleeting thing, so can be the friendship of a Ram. If you want to call an Aries up for a night on the town, you’ll have an exciting companion for the evening — but don’t try to make plans for next week. This Sign needs variety in their friendships. If one group of people can’t keep up with their constantly changing interests, they’ll move on to new friends. Not that they ever lack for companionship: The Ram is well liked for their edge, so making new friends is never a big problem. Friends are nice, but not exactly necessary for independent Aries, who doesn’t need a big group to have fun. When they are in one, though, their competitive nature is liable to get the better of them. Don’t try to borrow even a cup of sugar from this one. Ruled by the First House of Self, selfishness can sometimes take the upper hand when it’s a choice between people and possessions. On the other hand, the Ram can be very warm toward their friends. As long as Aries feels that they are the number one friend in your life, you can count on having an exciting, albeit brief, whirlwind of fun.
Profile
Your Moon is in Leo
Warm, loving, and generous in your affections, you inspire tremendous devotion and loyalty in your loved ones. This is good, since you would never settle for anything less! You want to be adored and worshipped like the king or queen that you feel you are, and it is difficult for anyone to resist the warmth and attention you lavish on those you care about. You have a great deal of pride and need to be recognized and appreciated. The way to really hurt your feelings is to ignore you. You are genuine, sincere, and have a strong sense of personal integrity. You hate emotional games and dishonesty.
Your Mercury is in Pisces
You are more of a poet than a rational scientist, for your mind does not function in a strictly logical, linear fashion. The language of music, art, or poetry is natural to you, and you are also able to think in highly abstract and symbolic terms. Translating your thoughts and impressions into concrete, everyday language may be difficult for you at times and consequently you may appear less intelligent or at least less quick-witted and verbal than others. This was especially true of you as a child, and you probably daydreamed a good deal also. You are intuitive and are able to sense what others’ thoughts and feelings are, even before they say anything to you. You often form an opinion about a person or situation without much factual knowledge of them, and your impressions are usually correct. You can be somewhat absent-minded and you become so immersed in your own thoughts that you overlook things in your immediate, tangible environment. You are extremely open-minded and believe that anything is possible. Intangible or spiritual forces seem just as real to you as anything in the concrete world. Your imagination and your sympathetic understanding of other people are two of your greatest gifts.
Virgo Karmic
Your obsession with perfectionism and order can leave you feeling frustrated and in a rut. You have an almost compulsive attention to detail which may have been learnt from a parent or authority figure. Often times you discourage yourself and others from trying new things simply because they won’t be done the way you think they should be. Your karmic path is to always feel trapped within the lines and yet afraid to color outside of them. Fear is the basic motivation behind this desire for order — it is the only way you know of controlling your environment. If you are capable of overcoming this fear — letting go of control — you have a chance of developing an imaginative side where your practicality could become a valuable asset.
Aries: Karmic Life Lessons
Aries is a fiery energy, fearless and brazen, forthright and honest. Those born under its influence are positive, energetic people with a true zest for life. However, the old saying “Look before you leap” could be Aries’s mantra, and “honest to a fault” can definitely describe the Ram! If there were one thing Aries would most benefit from mastering, it would be patience. Aries is the most impatient Sign of the Zodiac and this tends to cause trouble on scales large and small.
Most people born under Aries’s influence experience everything in a heady, impassioned way; they want what they want right now and they can’t stand to wait! Certain things in life require patience and finesse, however. From affairs of the heart to education to cooking, certain endeavors call for a slow and steady approach. As it reflects the Cardinal Quality, Aries has lots of energy to start something new, but little of the dedication required to carry things through to the end, especially if something starts to become boring or tedious. This quality may cost Aries a great deal; especially in making major decisions (like “Should I drop out of med school?” or “Should I dump my steady sweetheart and marry the person I met last night at the Hula Club?”), Aries would do well to learn to slow down and sleep on it. Stop and think, “What will I lose if I drop this now, just because I’m bored? And what will I gain if I stay and follow it through to completion?”
Aries’s impetuous nature partially stems from the “me first” way in which Aries tends to view the world. As it is the first Sign of the Zodiac, Aries wants to be first — and best — in everything. This can result in a truly competitive nature. In team sports or on the job front, Aries may not be the best team player; after all, being overly competitive can sometimes be summed up in two words — sore loser. And we’re all bound to lose sometimes, aren’t we? It’s important for those born under the Aries influence to learn to be a gracious loser, in the odd moment of their defeat (since Aries doesn’t let defeat happen often!). Learn to step aside from time to time and allow other people their time in the spotlight; your time will surely return quickly, since Aries is a born star!
Stepping aside for someone else to enjoy center stage is a difficult thing for a true Aries to do. Many relationship problems for an Aries stem from selfishness and insensitivity; in a romantic relationship or a friendship or with family, Aries tends to forget the other person also has feelings, wants and needs. The joy of giving pleasure and satisfaction to another person can be even greater than the joy of receiving it; if Aries learns this lesson, it will open up the boundaries of love and sexual satisfaction to the joys of generosity.
Aries can look to other Signs of the Zodiac to learn its Karmic lessons. Cancer possesses the nurturing impulse that Aries may lack; those born under Aries’s influence can look to their Cancer friends to learn the value of sensitivity and emotional connection with loved ones. They can look to their Libra friends to learn the benefits of team efforts and partnerships, since Libra is all about working together. From Capricorn Aries can learn the about hard work and dedication, about pushing through something even when it has become boring and tedious.
Your Neptune is in Sagittarius
You are part of a 14 year group of people that are extremely idealistic and farsighted in their dreams. Your age group is very liberal and expansive in outlook, and consequently churches become much more flexible and more eclectic in their approach during your life time. Religions that do not adapt to the broad-minded attitude of your age group simply are unable to attract very much interest and involvement from you.
A great deal of metaphysical musing and speculation is evident in your age group, and there is a very strong interest in all manner of psychic phenomena, UFO’s, prophecy, etc. This interest will open many new doors and insights, but will also often lead to a great deal of fantasizing and speculation that is taken more seriously than it should be.
Aries
The sign of the Ram is graced by the element of Fire, and if you were to use one word to describe Aries, it could easily be heat. People born under this sign have a passion and red-hot energy, which often proves irresistible. It’s certainly never boring! Aries likes to initiate relationships, and the role of seducer comes to them easily. This sizzling romance dance will only work on those strong enough to stay in the game, because Aries wants a partner who can go toe-to-toe with them, whether it’s over lunch or under the covers. Aries likes to get its way and often pits the wishes of self against what is best for the partnership, which can lead to conflict. These battles, though, are often foreplay, which can result in some sexy fireworks of their own. The Ram is possessed of a great physicality, a sense of adventure, is wildly flirtatious and loves to play.
Aries and Romance
Aries loves the hunt and will do whatever it takes to get the prize they want. The question in their mind will often be whether it’s a prize worth keeping. Aries will take risks during the chase and would love the object of their affections to do the same. That give-and-take can keep things more than interesting and going for quite some time. There is no doubt that Aries is seductive and will prove hard to resist. Sparks will fly in this competitive pas de deux, and it’s all the better where the Ram is concerned. A mental attraction for impassioned Aries is often the first step and the indicator as to whether things will progress. If things work their way down — watch out! Once hooked, Aries loves strokes and tender caresses and a lover who will tell them that they are the best.
Aries in Relationships
The demanding and passionate Ram needs an equally self-possessed lover to stimulate them and set them on fire. If not, what’s the point? Aries can be fiercely loyal, yet self-centered at the same time, so their partner needs to exhibit confidence and a sense of when to give them the space they need. The occasional bouts of temper exhibited by Aries are best dealt with if they are used as a prelude to a deeper understanding and the sizzle that comes with kissing and making up. Aries will stick with a relationship as long as it’s hot (and fireworks are key to this Fire Sign), but if things start to cool down, it won’t be long before they hit the road. The ideal Aries soul mate may be someone who is never, ever dull.
Aries in Love
Aries is a moving target where love is concerned, always looking, seeking and often finding. It can be very hard to resist the Ram’s magnetic charms. The aura surrounding those born under this sign is one of intensity and intrigue, so many will be tempted to step up to the plate. This is exactly what Aries wants: many opportunities to play the game of love. Some things will work, and some won’t, but the game is surely fun! The beauty of it all is that Aries flourishes in love, becoming a more sensuous, understanding and feeling soul. As long as Aries remembers how to share, and the beauty of an us, things can go far.
Aries and Sex
The Ram is more of a tiger where sex is concerned and, like many other sleek animals, loves the hunt — that steady pursuit of the ultimate prize. Aries is a physical and fearless lover and is blessed with the stamina to go all night long. They are not afraid to experiment sexually in their quest for pleasure, which means an open-minded lover is a must. The Mile-High Club must have been invented for these folks! It’s safe to say that Aries’ lover must be able to satisfy, or the Ram will move on. The dominant sexual partner will likely be the Ram, and while eroticism is important, a mental connection is also favored by this sign. As if Aries weren’t passionate and demanding enough, they also want to be made to feel secure in a sexual relationship, lest jealousy rear its ugly head.
What Aries Needs
Aries doesn’t generally need hearts and flowers to give them a warm and fuzzy glow. What’s far more important to members of this sign is to find a partner who is equally strong and self-possessed and who will challenge them to greater heights, both mental and physical. The person who can draw them out and make them better is a keeper. It also helps if Aries’ partner can handle the occasional fiery argument and master the art of making up. Sexual adventurers are also very attractive to the Ram, whether it’s acrobatics between the sheets or the art of touching. There’s no shortage of libido here!
The Aries lover is passionate, adventurous and energetic, loves romance and revels in the art of the chase. Those who can stand the heat will be rewarded with a loyal companion who will take them to greater heights. Life with Aries is never boring, so get ready for the ride of a lifetime!
