In these texts, A is the person whose Venus is read and B the person whose Pluto receives it.
Pluto relates to our most intimate sides and to expressions of power that can enrich or complicate the bond. The intensity depends on the other factors, on the type of vector of the planetary relationship and on the way both act.
Facilitating contact
A passionate, erotic attraction is described, one that may feel deeper than physical interest. A may swing between intense surrender and the wish to take distance. Faced with that movement, B may feel an urge toward greater dominance.
For passion to find a favorable expression, both need to recognize boundaries. The intensity of desire does not erase A’s autonomy, nor does it turn B’s control into a proof of love. With mutual respect, the relationship can offer a high degree of passion and eroticism.
Obstructing contact
If other tension factors are added, possessiveness and the wish to dominate can give rise to a destructive dynamic. The image of the predator and its prey expresses that imbalance. Recognizing the risk of subjugation does not mean blaming the person who suffers it.
It is also possible for A to set clear limits on B’s closeness. Other favorable aspects do not make a pattern of abuse acceptable. What needs attention is the concrete behavior and the way each person’s freedom is respected or violated.
Aspects of Venus
Venus represents the way we give and receive affection, sensuality, charm and physical closeness. Its aspects are read in relation to the attraction, enjoyment or discomfort that another person’s closeness can awaken. As you read these descriptions, think about how you enjoy affection with your partner and how they like to receive it.
The intensity of that experience depends on the synastry as a whole and on the awareness with which both live the bond. Inventory 1 is also essential: family and cultural models influence how comfortable we feel with touch. Two people can feel attraction and have different needs for closeness.
Respecting your own boundaries and your partner’s allows closeness to become a shared discovery. No description of affinity replaces what each person wants or accepts at a given moment.
