Venus in Libra

Lovers rejoice, as Venus is finally in her home sign of Libra. Venus hasn’t had the best year — nor the worst. We started 2025 with a Venus retrograde in Aries, so we’re overdue for some cosmic love and affection.

Venus is a passive planet, drawing things in. Not unlike love, the thing that brings people together without knowing why. Because Venus is not action-oriented, looking to Mars (action) in Scorpio (long-term strategy) gives us a better understanding of how the feel-good things on their way through our lives might make themselves known.

During the initial part of this transit, Venus in Libra opposes Neptune retrograde in Aries. While Venus may feel at home and want to get comfy, an opposition to Neptune encourages us to be realistic in our needs and wants. The first few days of this transit may feel like a nice time, but nice times are not always sustainable if we’re not in harmony with the people around us.

Aries Rising

Aries risings, your relationships of all kinds are feeling good while Venus in Libra is in your 7th house of relationships. This is a transit that can indicate someone new entering your life, depending on the other transits and aspects in your chart. While you may attract or engage with people who look good, don’t let the fear of disturbing the peace stop you from standing up for yourself. Sometimes, setting boundaries is the best way to make sure our relationships can stay harmonious in the long run.

Taurus Rising

For Taurus risings, Libra rules your 6th house of routine, work, and service. To speak honestly, this is not Venus’ favorite house. Venus wants romance and a love story, but the 6th house offers us routine and structure. This is a good time to tap into the Air and Scales qualities of Libra. Think about your daily structures and routines: do they allow you to show up as the best version of yourself? Fill up your own cup before you start pouring into others.

Gemini Rising

Gemini risings, this is a damn good time. Venus in your 5th house of pleasure and creativity is exactly where she wants to be. With the sun also in Libra, the overall presence of willpower is low, so have fun but don’t overdo it, as self-indulgence can be a vice of Venus. Make sure you’re expressing yourself creatively. And remember, creativity takes many forms in both consumption and production.

Cancer Rising

Cancer rising, we know you love to feel good, and Venus crossing your 4th house of home and family roots brings some warmth to your innermost spaces. You may be inclined to redecorate as Venus makes herself at home here, just keep in mind that she has expensive taste. While Venus in the 4th house wants everyone to get along, don’t sacrifice your true feelings to keep the peace.

Leo Rising

Leo risings, look for love in your everyday life with this transit. This is a good time to catch up with old friends and remind people in your life that you care about them. Giving our time and energy to others has a way of filling us up, and can help us build partnerships in our local community that make us feel stronger and more connected.

Virgo Rising

This is the transit to get your bag, Virgo risings. You could be attracting additional income, assets, or financial gifts (big or small). While Venus has a penchant for the finer things, remember not to overspend without thinking about where the money is coming from. This transit could also indicate a little surprise or gift in terms of money, Virgo rising.

Libra Rising

Libra risings, this is your time! Venus in your first house encourages you to have fun, but don’t overindulge such that you abandon yourself in the process. Understand when the relationships around you are out of convenience, as opposed to the fear of being alone.

Scorpio Rising

With Venus in Libra, Scorpios may find that they are called to take care of someone else in their life. Only do this if you can manage to balance the scales between caring for others, without making yourself a martyr. With Venusian energy ruling this house of hidden things, this would be a good time to go somewhere beautiful, alone. Sit in solitude while surrounded by beauty, whatever that means to you. This transit may not bring as much pleasure for you, Scorpio, but trust that you will receive spiritual gifts and insights instead.

Sagittarius Rising

For Sag risings, Venus in your 11th house is all about friendship and community. This is a great time to be with community, as you’ll probably find some new friends with this transit. This is also a great time to make sure you’re clear on your values so you know how to attract the kind of community that brings balance and harmony into your life.

Capricorn Rising

For Capricorn risings, Libra rules your 10th house (also known as your midheaven), which is the highest part of your chart. That’s why this house is typically known as the house of reputation, career, and public image. Venus in Libra spreads a little fairy dust over this area of your life, so people are probably seeing you in a favorable light right now. You may attract relationships from a higher status. While those relationships may seem appealing right now because they make you look better in the public eye, be wary that this motivation can go both ways.

Aquarius Rising

An Aquarius rising’s philosophy is all about beauty and harmony. However, beauty and harmony can be found when we go out of our comfort zones. This is a great transit to travel somewhere new, or engage in an activity or hobby that’s outside of your normal routine — you just might like it.

Pisces Rising

Venus transiting the 8th house, like it is for Pisces risings, can be a stimulating transit. The 8th house rules taboo, death and rebirth, and transformation. A transiting Venus pulls that all in with a coy smile on her face. You may attract something into your life that brings about a psychological evolution or a new understanding of your values. You may also attract something that helps with your finances, as the 8th house rules joint resources.
