VENUS CONJUNCT URANUS

A conjunction or conjunct symbol is an aspect that emphasizes and brings together the energies of the planets involved. Conjunctions focus and intensify the energy much like a laser beam on an exact point in your chart. These planets have their own uniqueness and when tag-teamed their energy is intensified even more.

It is important to understand that Venus rules Love, beauty and relationships. Venus is aesthetic and artistic. It is harmonious and seeks balance. Venus also rules our personal money and our self-worth, meaning what we feel we are worth (our worthiness). Uranus is the planet of a sudden change in circumstance, much like a lightning strike. Uranus also represents innovation, invention and independence. It literally strikes out and strikes out on its own, like lightning. Uranus is unconventional and electrifying; thereby bringing about sudden change in an instant, which can show up as being erratic. You can pretty much expect the unexpected when Uranus is involved. Uranus is also the higher octave of Mercury.

This aspect creates romantic attractions that are so sudden that it is the classic placement for 'falling in love' literally. This is how two people meet, get engaged after two weeks, then move in together or get married. It is the classic 'sudden attraction'.

The problem with this placement is that the attraction is so sudden and so fast that not so soon afterward the excitement wanes and the freedom (or spell) that initiated the interest has now moved on. This aspect does not allow anyone to curb one's sense of freedom. It tends to get bored and restless in a traditional style of relationship and needs room to breathe. This aspect seeks fun, spontaneity and intellectual stimulation from a partner. Think intellectual stimulation due to the planet Uranus, which rules Aquarius, who carries the motto, "I know therefore I am." Venus conjunct Uranus needs to be recognized as an individual within the personal relationship. The independence streak is very strong in this aspect and it cannot be negotiated out.
