Aspects
Psyche Conjunction Venus
Your way of loving and your soul-sensitivity are fused, so you love at depth and need to be known and to know another at soul level for a bond to satisfy you. Surface affection leaves you hungry; you want the kind of recognition that touches the soul. The gift is a capacity for profound, soul-deep love and the readiness to be truly vulnerable in it. The shadow is idealizing soul-mate love past what any real person can give, taking love-wounds straight to the soul, or fearing that your depths will frighten a partner away. Let love reach the soul without demanding a perfection no human can hold.
Lean in — Seek soul-deep love without demanding a perfect soul-mate.
Watch for — Take every love-wound to the soul, or hide depths in fear.
