Venus In Virgo Is Here To Teach You About Patient & Dutiful Love
T
his summer, Venus – our planet of connection – is on the move, delivering lessons on the infinite expressions of love and reminders of what love isn’t. Beginning its journey through the dutiful earth sign, Virgo, on August 4/5, 2024, Venus encourages a patient kind of love. An in complete devotion and service to you kind of love. A here’s all the little things I remember and treasure about you, kind of love. During the cycle of Venus in helpful Virgo, lean toward practical demonstrations of your affection and care – like running an errand for your friend who is recovering from illness, remembering the significant dates in your work colleagues' lives, or taking on additional duties when your lover has had a difficult day.
When Venus transits Virgo, too much logic will disconnect you from feeling. It's for this reason Virgo symbolizes Venus’ fallen realm – the zodiacal position where it loses strength. Venus is grace, sensuality, and romance. Affection and desire. Harmony and unity. Virgo, on the other hand, is rigid, productive, and efficient. While this energy isn’t negative, it does present karmic challenges to clear the blocks that limit the fullest expression of your heart. When this cosmic chapter ends on August 29, 2024, and Venus enters her ruling position – peaceful and refined Libra – you will shed your harsh external layers in the remembrance that you can be supportive and sensitive.
Support the people you love
As Venus spins through Virgo, you are learning what it means to love selflessly. To devote yourself to supporting and serving the people who matter to you. Lead with an honest and gentle touch. Ensure that your dutiful assistance is rooted in pure intentions. Elevate people and encourage their self-improvement without seeking credit for the hand you played in their growth. Your mission is to express love and care through meaningful acts that will resonate with others. Unsolicited advice, though useful, may not be beneficial – especially if there is judgment laced in your guidance. Similarly, if someone offers constructive feedback in a way that is unkind toward you, vocalize your feelings. Teach them how to offer direction in a way you respond positively toward.
Be kind to yourself and others
Venus is the cosmic ruler of aesthetics. When Venus transits Virgo, your perception and acute awareness of the beauty in detail sharpens. Commend the small efforts people make to magnify their attraction. As you strive to be kinder toward others, you will notice how you have been harsh or unloving toward yourself. Observe your growing intolerance toward imperfections and the harsh standards or expectations that create division where you seek connection. When excavating the root of your feelings, you will find that an inability to embrace other’s flaws stems from struggles to be enough for yourself. When you silence your crippling inner voice that hyper-fixates on your faults and flaws, you will open your heart to others without unconsciously projecting the same criticism toward them.
Live within your means
As the planetary ruler of luxuries and materialism, Venus delivers lessons on managing your financial flow. However, when transiting practical Virgo, Venus asks you to learn, build, work, and create without needing to put your journey on display. Treasure your goals, ambitions, and earnings. Exercise discernment and control in this consumption-obsessed world that continues to tell you what you need to invest in externally to feel internally whole.
Hardworking and responsible Venus in Virgo asks you to live within your means through a supportive and modest budget. Reign in your extravagant desires, and you will discover your core values – sustaining a healthy, secure, and comfortable lifestyle. Take care of your body and refrain from over-extending your physical capacity to prove your worth at work or in your relationships.
