Good morning fellow stargazers!
Venus and Mars sextile today in the sky. I wish I had this aspect. These folks (and yes, the Venus trine Mars folks as well) appear to have no trouble attracting romantic interest. Now, it doesn’t matter much once you’re hooked up. I mean, how many people do you need? (Don’t answer that ;))
I also find them to be good-looking or at least very appealing in some way. They draw people in. Venus is our power to attract.
Now, transiting Venus is in picky analytical Virgo and transiting Mars is in sensitive cranky Cancer but who the fuck cares? It’s a good aspect between the love planet and the sex planet and people gonna want choo!
You can look in your own chart for the houses where these folks are transiting and then go one step further and see if your own Venus or Mars is involved in the transiting aspect. Go on. Take a look. I’ll wait.
(Cue theme song to Jeopardy or game show of your choice.)
What did you find? What did I find? I’m having my Mars Return ooh la la.
Sextiles, they say, need work. They don’t have the automatic ease and flow like trines and I find this to be true. Sextiles make a person pleasant 🙂 Like me. I have loads of sextiles. I am fucking pleasant. Unless I’m hungry, tired, cranky, etc 😉 Nevertheless, sextile = good stuff.
Do you have sextiles? What do you notice?
Also, the sextile shows a capable mind, marble-smooth, a sort of balance to the thinking. Sextile-types enjoy thinking. They may not get all their projects off the ground. They may enjoy thinking about them so much, or worrying about them so much, and may not have trine-like luck to assist. But with some self-awareness and hard work, the sextile should begin to manifest here on earth and not just in the mind.

It is my Mars return too (happened on 5 September), with Mars Return Mars in 4th sextile Venus conj. Sun in Virgo in the 6th. Interestingly the Moon, at that moment, was in late Sag in my 9th (on my natal Ascendant) and it’s conj. Pluto, making two trines – one to Jupiter (in Taurus) in the 1st, and one to Venus conj. Sun in the 6th. I just got an interview with a new agent (in the arts) so I hope this to be a creative and productive 2 year cycle! I also identify with being cranky if I don’t eat before working, so that’s just part and parcel of having Mars in Cancer, I suppose. Thanks for your analysis! Great help!
Hi Erna C.! Thanks for reading 🙂 And welcome 🙂 Good luck with the agent!!!! Yeah Mars in Cancer needs so much care…. I know how it is!
I have Mars 11H/Libra Sextile Venus 9H/Leo in the natal, and this sextile transit is wrapped all up in the natal configuration. Natal Venus is on the midpoint of the transiting combo, and transiting Venus right on the midpoint of thge natal combo 🙂 (Also conjunct NPluto and NUranus), unfortunately TMars in the 8th is squaring NMars in the 11th today and I woke up all hot and bothered (combat ready)! Once I gave it up and went with the GORGEOUS weather on the weekend I have waiting sooo long for…I spent the day in the kitchen making candles (So Venus/Mars) for my new business! Now its time for NASCAR Night racing, the hubs has just started the fire pit and all the doors are open on this crisp night! To speak to the natal attributes, I had a lot of “boy” friends (I had maybe 1 or 2 “girlfriends” growing up and just always related more to the males (Mars/Libra/11th). My parents owned a skating rink and their hobby was racing and building race cars (I thought everyone was sposed to smell like gasoline or sweat!!) I was looked at by the male friends as the one they measured their standards by, pretty flattering, but I had many issues regarding the sexual aspects of partnering so I never went there with my friends…They wondered why other girls werent into sports or adventure like I was (because theyre girls….derrrr) hehehe. At any rate, I was married at 18 and have been known as Mrs. Momma by all ever since.
My sister has Venus sextile Mars, and attracts men – they go all goopy over her. She dresses well, and is very concerned with her appearance (she a Cappy), so maybe that’s partially why, but she’s also very pretty, and seems to have a better energy where men are concerned.
I have Venus square Mars, and get called “sexy” more than “pretty”. 🙁 It’s one thing when it comes from someone you want to find you sexy, but from men on dating sites approaching that way, or making lewd noises out and about – they really think that’s attractive? Not to me. And I’m wary and defensive.
My sister once had a boy yelling across the class that he had a crush on her; the boys who crushed on me seemed hesitant to admit it (still do when it comes to adult men).
I used to get the sex thing. Always thought it was a 1st House Pluto thing. Or well aspected Mars thing. For some reason, just realizing this now: I think I’m getting this kind of attention less and not sure why.
Lessee… I have Venus Trine Mars Natally, funny about the attractiveness thing though…. most of my life I considered myself quite the opposite of attractive and well, seems most of the opposite sex agreed. I have a bit of a, ummm “strong, unusual look” in my estimation, and I’ve grown to appreciate it, and enjoy it, be damned if anyone else does or not! LOL
And… I have all sorts of Mars/Venus action going on! Ok trVenus is trining BOTH natal Venus and Mars. and trMars is opposing natal Venus, but sextiling nMars.. how’s that for mingling of this dynamic duo? Let’s see if it brings something spicy into my life right now, that would be fantastic. 😉
