Venus Traits
The Roman goddess Venus is famous for having an alluring beauty. She is the Goddess of Love and Beauty, and she is one of the goddesses frequently worshipped. This goddess is kind-hearted. Tragic love stories move her gentle heart. Being the protector of artists, Venus highly favors the artists and the art that they made.
The planet Venus in astrology has the same dominion as the Roman goddess. In astrology, Venus governs over love and relationships. It symbolizes fertility, desire, pleasure, and sex.
Venus is a personal planet, along with Mercury and Mars. A planet is a personal one if it governs an aspect, or sometimes parts, of our personality. For example, mercury and Mars govern communication and anger, respectively. Venus rules over our identity in love and relationships.

Venus knows our perception of love and relationship. How much does this perception affect our romantic relationships? What are our patterns in romantic relationships? Venus knows our love language as well as the way we express our intimacy to our partners. This hot planet knows how we feel loved and appreciated in a relationship. The planet Venus is all about lovely things as well. Hence, this planet rules over the arts and literature.
Like the Roman goddess, Venus people are also kind-hearted. Also, they are selfless and gentle. These people like to help those in need, especially if they see you striving for the better. But their selflessness is not the first thing that you will notice in these people.
Yes, the first thing that will strike you is their remarkable fashion statement. Venus people are born attractive, and they grew up knowing this. They know how to best stand out by highlighting their best assets. Aside from their faces, their best asset is their style. For this reason, people tend always to get their opinion when it comes to fashion.
Because these people always like to look glamorous, they splurge an incredible amount of money for it. They set aside a lot of time and effort for them to look jaw-droppingly gorgeous. And this splurging does not only stop on their appearance. These people also spend lavishly on their surroundings. You will find them buying things that look pretty, but, likely, and they will not use it other than decoration.

Venuses are a creative bunch of people. So it is not surprising that they involve themselves in the arts. These activities can be painting, sculpting, writing, singing, or acting. These people are active, and they always want the spotlight on them.
Saturn Traits
Looking at Roman mythology, Saturn is known as the Roman God of agriculture. But his dominion doesn't end only in agriculture and stewardship. Saturn is also said to be the Lord of Time. Looking now through the lens of astrology, Saturn is famous for its distinctive rings. These rings fascinate non-astronomy fans as well. These rings comprise different materials: ice and rock debris.
In astrology, we can correlate these rings to what Saturn rules. Saturn signifies boundaries and limits. So looking at the rings of the planet Saturn, we can view it as a planet boundary. And the ice and rock debris, which the rings comprise, symbolize the different limitations in our lives. These limitations can be responsibilities, duties, obligations, and burdens.
Therefore, Saturn is also about maturity and responsibility. How do we tend to face our responsibilities? Do we tend to run away from them? Do we execute our duties?
Venus Opposition Saturn Synastry
Opposition is associated with chaos and instability. When two planets sit on the opposite side of each other, they will find ways to balance each other. But sometimes, the only way is to find harmony is “push and pull.” With too much pulling, the other planet is superior. Too much pushing will make the other inferior. In the end, the other planet may break.
With the most complex aspect of astrology, what's in store for the couple? There is a strong attraction with this couple. And the couple strongly wants to be together. But mostly, it's Saturn who expresses this desire so much. Saturn will like this Venus until they do not. Why? Because the horrid traits of Venus are starting to show.
What makes this relationship so hard is not the couple themselves. Unlike the Venus-Pluto aspects show, outside forces also play a crucial role in these relationships. Either of them has heavy responsibilities that may affect their relationship with each other. One of them either has financial problems, or one is a breadwinner of the family.
Saturn can also feel the need to control this Venus. Viewing Venus as a shallow person, Saturn will try to change them into someone that Saturn likes. But, unfortunately, these people also differ in the way they express each other. While Saturn is the cold, relentless lover, Venus wants something more than that.
When Venus expresses their love for Saturn, instead of being appreciative, Saturn may find this repulsive. As a result, they will tend to distance themselves from this Venus. This expression may bring fear or displeasure to Saturn. Saturn, in return, will reinforce boundaries for Venus. And when Venus feels inhibited by their partners, they isolate themselves. They feel dejected.
The Venus-Saturn aspect is challenging to overcome. But “difficult” does not mean that “impossible.” Therefore, we can conclude that this couple should try to assess their feelings for each other. Do they want this relationship? Do they want to make it work?
If they do, it's time to sit down and communicate. Why does Saturn want to control this Venus? Why does Venus feel unacknowledged? This couple should know how to compromise. Saturn should not try to change Venus into something they are not. It's either Saturn will accept this Venus or leave them be.
Venus, on the other hand, should not try to repress themselves to please this Saturn. Being with someone who does not accept you for who you are can be pretty exhausting in the long run. It is better to be happy alone than be with someone where you cannot be yourself.
