VENUS OPPOSING MARS

This aspect depicts conflict which, when resolved, results in growth. Oppositions show a tug of war between opposing forces. If they are resolved, then the oppositions become the backbone and strength of the chart.

It is important to understand that the Venus rules Love, beauty and relationships. Venus is aesthetic and artistic. There is an attachment or response to beauty. Mars is busy, hyper and action-oriented. Mars is assertive, aggressive and competitive. Keep in mind that Venus and the Moon are the estrogen (female energy) in the chart, while Mars and the Sun is the testosterone (male energy) in the chart. So you can see from the get-go, this is a tug-of-war or a struggle to find balance between these two opposing energies.
