Venus in Aries : A Thread
For those with Venus placed in Aries in the birth chart, love can be a battlefield, where you want to be number one with no question. Love can be a feeling of having to “fight ” for the object of your affection. Love is passionate involvement. Love is fiery. Love is independence.
Love is “shooting your shot”.

You have the potential to be the the “Love Warrior”.
Ideally, you have little problem being the initiator in forming relationships because (1) you don’t believe in wasting time and (2) there’s a dynamic thrust of identity projection at work.
For you, personal relationships are a source of constant renewal, and the litmus test of the ones that serve you is how much motivation you feel to maintain them.
Independence is another key theme for you. Learning the lesson that: working in your own self-interest and selfishness are two different things will be of immense value to you in your journey.
When Archetypal Aries energy is present in intimate relationships, there’s a tremendous focus on impact: On the effect they’ve had on the other person. The continuous question is :”what’s new?”
A static existence w/o mutual independence is as debilitating as it gets.
The gist of an Aries infused relationship is: “take your resources & explore the world, and I’ll do the same.” Then, we’ll come back & share insights in a manner that benefits us personally & collectively.
In general, what you can provide & also what you expect from another, is a straightforward & shame-free manner of relating. Emotional directness doesn’t have to be a problem.Typically, this is a person who’s more concerned with affirmation of their being than apologizing for it.
Because of the focus on identity development, what the Ram seeks in a partner is someone who has found a source of passionate involvement and stimulation for *themselves*.
Venus in Aries understands that to be deeply focused on what you love is to feel connected to the collective life force. On a healthy level, the Venus in Aries individual desires to “push” their partner to fulfill potential.
They're Always looking for ways to encourage stretching out of their comfort zone. Dysfunctionally, they become obsessed with competition, feeling as if they have to continuously be “one up” as a source of psychological satisfaction.
Another appropriate question for Venus in Aries is: “How do I keep the fires burning?” Aries energy is undoubtedly challenged with maintaining enthusiasm in relationships.
With the natural ebb and flow of life, the initial “heat” which is automatically present in the beginning stages of a union must subside or take on a different form.
So, what will it be? Do you choose air to fan the flames of your passions? More fire to set the world ablaze? Water to create steam? earth to bring structure to your aspirations? no matter what you choose, know that you can, & are supposed to have an impact on your partner.
You have the capability to become a master motivator and a source of “juice”. Not only by your powerful words, but your life lived as a personal demonstration of how an identity and belief in a cause unfolds over time.
Venus in Aries also suggests a person that’s not adverse to risk in relationships.
There are two examples of very different relationship models. The first model is the static model and the second is the erotic model.
With the static model, the basic intent is to stay safe. To avoid risk. As long as there are no major shake- ups, everything will be all right. “Mrs./Mr. Jones and I have been together for 30 years and everything is in it’s place just the way I like it.”
However, the question remains: have you and Mrs./Mr. Jones really been together 30 years, or just one year 30 times over? The erotic model is far more risky, but the potential rewards are much greater.
Having Venus in Aries natally, the erotic model of relationships is much better suited to your inclinations.
The prime goals of the erotic relationship model are: intimacy and growth, variety, openness to change, open communications, trust, varied and shifting roles, independence, and adult-adult relating.
there are probably ten percent of people who have a sufficient amount of the erotic in their relationship to keep them on their toes; to have them aiming towards deep bonding and personal transformation.
as you peruse this food for thought, it may help to take inventory of your personal relationships and ask yourself where you fall on the spectrum. All & All, you need to shoot your shot!
