Ascendant Opposition Venus

Your warmth and charm come alive through other people. With Venus opposite your Ascendant, falling on the Descendant, you find your grace and your capacity for love most fully in relationship, and you are at your most attractive and harmonious when meeting a close other. You have a real gift for partnership, diplomacy, and making someone feel valued. The shadow is depending on a partner to feel lovable, losing your own taste and values to keep the peace, or needing constant affirmation of your worth. The lifelong work is to carry your own sense of value and pleasure into relationship, so love affirms a worth you already hold rather than supplying one you lack.

Lean inCarry your own sense of worth and pleasure into relationship.
