Venus is quite a famous planet. And correctly so, after all, it deals with the most significant aspects of life such as love, beauty, romance, marriage and happiness among others.

Venus is a feminine planet, the brightest one. It is considered an auspicious planet. Its friendly planets are Mercury and Saturn while the sun and moon are its enemy planets. Besides, Venus or Shukra is the lord of Bharani, Phalguni and Purva Ashadha Nakshatras.

Let us see how Venus plays an important role in a native’s birth chart:

When the planet is in the ascendant of a kundali and is in the houses – 11th, 7th, 5th, 4th; it is considered good. A good or strong Venus can bestow the richness of the native’s life. People who have strong Venus are charismatic, beautiful and good-looking thus can attract people of the opposite gender. These are soft-spoken folks with a creative spirit, refined taste and appreciation of art, music and culture.

Financial gains also occur due to the good positioning of Venus such as a gain in property in real estate. Favourable Venus can bestow the native with a knack for acquiring wealth and enjoying the finer things in life. However, you must be wondering if everything about Venus is so smooth and effortless, then why sometimes it appear to be messy and complicated? Well, that is because it can be malefic too!

A malefic Venus can harm the native in multiple ways. Natives who have weak Venus in their horoscope are prone to tamasic traits such as gambling, alcoholism, narcotics and other sorts of addictions. Also, they have low physical appeal and a weak personality.

For instance, in relationships, it causes infidelity and extramarital affairs, and sometimes can lead to separation as well.  Besides, a poor Venus can also cause health problems for ‌ natives such as skin problems. In the financial aspect, a weak Venus can lead to bankruptcy.

How you can make planet Venus strong in your birth chart

Vedic astrology not only tells you about the positioning of planets and their consequences but also about remedies to improve them, all you need to do is pay attention and let it show you the will of god.

• White is your solace to please Venus. When it comes to colours, our planets have their favourites. Also, you can wear silver jewellery. Wearing a diamond gemstone also helps to nullify the malefic effects of Venus.
• 7 Mukhi Rudraksha mala bracelet can also be worn by the natives to protect themselves from the mahadasha of Shukra.
• Respect your spouse. This goes beyond saying, that you cannot ill treat your partner, respect is the foundation stone of every relationship. It is the base; all the other things are like a superstructure.
• Donate kheer, curd, rice and if possible, silver. Charity is the best way to please any deity. But, do not accept silver as a gift.
• Give some treats to small kids and elderly, and widowed women.
• Fasting on Fridays is also helpful.
• Recitation of Venus Beej Mantra 108 times.
• Worship the Goddess Lakshmi, especially on Fridays – the day associated with Venus. Goddess Lakshmi provides one with material wealth and happiness, her blessings remove the hindrances created in the native’s life due to the effect of Shukra Dosha

To tackle the influences of Venus, you should begin by identifying which Rashi Venus occupies. For instance, if Venus occupies Cancer, it is looking for security in partnerships but you do not want it in Aquarius where it can be unorthodox.

After that, see what sort of connections Venus is making with other planets. On linking with Saturn for instance, its hedonistic sensibilities may be tempered by Saturn’s signature stoicism. On the other hand, linking with Mars can be an interplay of sex and love.

Indeed, Venus is one of the most fascinating planets out there and “When Venus dances through the cosmos, she reminds us to indulge in the pleasures of life and embrace the joy of love.”
