The placement of Venus in Aries indicates that you have a need for independence and to validate your selfhood, both within your relationships and in the way in which you formulate your value system. Very often, the issue of self and other in your relationships is a major emphasis in your life, especially if similar planetary placements and aspects reinforce this. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Venus in Aries are a result of your need to assert yourself in spheres of life where others are to be taken into consideration.

There is considerable tension suggested by the placement of Venus in Aries. This is symbolized by the natural opposition between Aries and Venus-ruled Libra. Aries is the Cardinal Fire sign. The active fiery nature of Aries symbolically creates stress for the passive and harmonious nature of Venus. With Venus in Aries, the drive for independence associated with Aries is at odds with the relationship function represented by Venus. This placement calls on you to be creative in expressing the Venus-associated functions in ways that are compatible with the Aries energy.

Venus also symbolizes the anima in the psyche. Thus, if you are female with Venus in Aries, you are likely to model your femininity in order to incorporate characteristics typically associated with Aries. If you are male, you are likely to be attracted to someone who projects or embodies Aries-associated traits.

Insecurities

As an individual with Venus in Aries, if you are insecure, you will feel that your sense of self-identity is threatened by the compromise and surrender that normally takes place in a relationship. You are likely to be overly assertive in your relationships. At any rate, the fear that you will lose your independence or your self-identity will prevent you from developing your relationships in meaningful ways so that they are truly valid. Having Venus in Aries, because you cannot truly appreciate relationship, your values are all self dominated. Your will to act in order to possess the objects of your desire is likely to be very strong because you feel that you will not be able to enjoy an object unless you act to claim it. Driven by fear to always “grab yours,” however, you are never free to enjoy the beauty around you.

Venus in the 5th House:

With Venus in the 5th House you are likely to enjoy a robust and expressive sense of beauty and relationship. The 5th House affords the Venusian function a chance to fully develop in elaborate fashion. Here, Venus’ energy can be completely expressed and developed to its mature potential. In the 5th House, your evaluation of your sense inputs and your awareness of and involvement in relationship become self-conscious, but in a fresh and innocent way. Having Venus in the 5th House, you not only become concerned with how you value and relate to your physical and social environment, but with what you can do with the Venusian function to embellish your persona. This involves a certain amount of awareness of how others perceive and validate your tastes and judgment and your way of relating. You will generally endeavor to display your most positive side in these matters, perhaps hiding your shadow to avoid disapproval.

As an individual with Venus in the 5th House, you can be expected to express your sense of beauty and form. Whatever your tastes, especially in the arts, music, drama, poetry, etc., these should be evident to those who know you, for they will be expressed. If you have any talent in these areas, you will probably try your hand at artistic creativity. Having Venus in the 5th House, you will at least wish you could express yourself creatively and will likely appreciate those who do.  You are also not likely to be shy about expressing your opinions about what you dislike or find ugly.

Insecurities

With Venus in the 5th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will be unwilling to surrender yourself to another, or to purify your values so that they are selfless. This will lead you to hold back your self-expression. The values that you do express will be false and superficial. Your sense of beauty will be flawed by selfishness and your taste will be for show only – an attempt to gain others’ approval. Overcompensating for your insecurity, you may be vociferous in expressing your likes and dislikes but you care neither for the sensitivities of others nor for your own true affections.

In relationships, with Venus in the 5th House, you will hold yourself back, fearful that what you express may be rejected. Out of timidity, you may also fail to express your tastes and preferences. You may therefore appear to others to be a shallow personality, without passion, without a sense of yourself and without much to give in a relationship.

Evaluation Focus

As an individual with Venus in the 5th House, your evaluative and judgmental function is focused in the creative arena.  For this reason, you may have a well-developed (or at least pronounced) sense of artistic taste. You are likely to be particularly appreciative of the artistic expression of form, beauty and harmony. In fact, more than others, you are likely to be sensitive to the form inherent in a work of art.

Having Venus in the 5th House, you may also be very focused on expressing your judgment and taste. You are likely to make known to others what your likes or dislikes may be. This may be done directly (verbally) or indirectly through an open (sometimes ostentatious)  display of taste.
