But Aquarius is also ruled by Uranus in these modern times, so there\u2019s some spark here, too. <\/p>\n<p>The inventiveness of Uranus may contribute to Venus in Aquarius also being described as \u201cthe Space Alien\u201d; \u201cthe Woman of the Future\u201d; and \u201cthe Avatar &#8212; the Woman of Mastery.\u201d (That is, \u201cavatar\u201d in its definition as \u201ca manifestation of a deity or released soul in bodily form on earth; an incarnate divine teacher,\u201d not in its definition as an icon representing a computer user &#8212; though that manifestation bears some exploration.) <\/p>\n<p>The spark of Venus in Aquarius emerges as more of an intellectual spark than the heart-centered warmth or passion Venus exhibits in some signs. If you\u2019re born with Venus in Aquarius, it might feel like bringing your emotional being into your intellect &#8212; a kind of emotional intelligence. <\/p>\n<p>Or as Eric put it, \u201cDepending on the aspects, this can require a search in the chart for how, exactly, this person makes emotional contact, but you can count on it being through their mind. It is one embodiment of &#8216;the brain is the most important sex organ&#8217;.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of sex and emotional intelligence, Venus moving into Aquarius puts it into a square with retrograde Ceres in Scorpio, and it\u2019s also sextile Juno in Aries. A sextile is an aspect about flow, but you have to get the ball rolling yourself; squares are internal tension urging you to act.  <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Venus-Juno looks rather like establishing a loving, erotic relationship with yourself first (\u2018marrying\u2019 yourself) while Venus traverses this sign. Venus in Aquarius tends to favor \u2018friendships\u2019 more than \u2018lover\u2019 partnerships, but that doesn\u2019t mean your current romantic relationship can\u2019t go well. You simply might find better understanding of your inner journey among like-minded \u2018tribe members\u2019 for a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll still want to communicate your needs and desires as compassionately as possible to whomever you may be involved with (there\u2019s that emotional intelligence kicking in). Venus-Ceres is pushing you to identify what kinds of sex or erotic energy would truly feed you at this time. You might have to go deep and cut away the distractions of others\u2019 agendas. But once you figure it out, anyone you\u2019re involved with come April 5, when Venus moves into Pisces, will likely be glad you did. More importantly, so will you.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Curious to know what&#8217;s in the cards for your sign specifically?
