One placement I rarely see talked about is Venus in Cancer

Venus is pretty happy being in Cancer. Venus is a feminine planet & Cancer is a feminine sign so this placements works well. Venus in Cancer is considered in peregrine condition, so its a pretty neutral position for Venus

With that being said Cancer Venus’s usually are very feminine & have a lot of emotional & feminine characteristics

When we think of Cancer some keywords Are: nurturing, maternal, comforting, caring, sentimental, big hearts, & emotional, so w/ Cancer Venus this is very much how these people are in regards to love

First thing Venus in Cancer needs in love & relationships is a huge sense of safety & security. Building a solid, safe relationship is important to them

They need to know where they stand with someone & that its sincere & for real. They Need their partner to make them feel secure and cared for

A Cancer Venus is going to operate best when they have a relationship that is predictable, stable & committed, & a partner who makes them know for sure that the relationship & love is solid. They want something set in stone.

But Deep down they have abandonment issues & a deep fear of rejection, so It can take a long time for this to happen. Cancer Venus’s are extremely sensitive, vulnerable & cautious in love.

Cancer Venus’s are not the type to rush into love bc of this vulnerability. The fact that they can be hurt is always lingering over their head. They always worry that they’ll be left high and dry

They can be kind of insecure in this sense, bc of the deep fear of rejection & abandonment, so they stay reserved & cautious for a while, until they find security & an emotionally safe place to open up their feelings.

But typically it takes a lot of time for Venus in Cancers to get to a place where they feel safe & will finally open up, get to know someone and develop a sense of trust.

Once a Venus in Cancer feels safe & secure, they make extremely patient, dependable, & loving partners. A venus in Cancer in love is the epitome of a ride or die with some of the most unmatched loyalty out there.

Venus in Cancers are like Venus in Scorpios in that they need intensity, deep emotional intimacy & they want to be each others everything. They both are reserved & cautious at first but deep down they crave the same thing.

The only difference is Venus in Cancers dont self sabotage & ruin the relationship once they get there like Scorpio Venus. Theyll def put their partners through little tests to prove their loyalty like Scorpio but they wont full blown sabotage the rship, instead they thrive.

Venus in Cancers love is dedicated, warm, and devoted. They show their love through care and concern.

A Cancer Venus in love has a lot to give - security, comfort, and care. They really value creating very strong emotional & intimate bond w their partner

Venus in Cancer is probably the most affectionate Venus sign. Theyre very gentle, sensual & tender and they love cuddling, snuggling, physical contact, touching, hugging etc.

A Relationship without cuddling to a Venus in Cancer is like a Thanksgiving without a Turkey. Like they need to be laid up w their partner quite frequently

They are attracted to partners with whom they can exchange tenderness & affection. They wanna take care of each other on a daily basis & have sentimental routines.

My co-worker says her husband brings her coffee to bed every single morning, then they lay there & she watches the news and drinks her coffee, and he reads the newspaper. I said youve got to have a venus in cancer sure enough she does

Venus in Cancers above all adore being nurturing and being nurtured

It is very important for Venus in Cancers to have a relationship that is going to end in marriage & having a family. Matters of the home and family are incredibly important to them

Getting married & creating a family is a top priority for Cancer Venus’s. They want a home that feels safe & cozy w an intimate atmosphere, where all your loved ones feel welcome.

You have to look at the whole chart of course, but I rarely find Cancer Venus’s who dont want to have children & a family & a warm, safe home

Venus in Cancers usually have very Strong attachments to their family and home. They love their families, they love their husbands or wives, and they love their children. Theyre very family-oriented

Venus in Cancers are really homebodies deep down. Their house is their sanctuary. They love any activities that pertain to it like cooking, gardening, or decorating. Theyre very domestic & love making a home.

This placement usually has a creates love for food & cooking as well. Theyre a spokesperson along w Taurus for the saying that “love passes through one’s stomach”

Cooking, and creating & decorating their home may be a form of meditation, happiness & relaxation for them

Venus in Cancers loveeee staying at home & spending a night in w their partner doing nothing just existing w them. Their ideal date is definitely staying in, having some food & being laid up w each other

One of the main issues w Cancer in Venus people is their neediness. This is a Venus sign that really needs a lot of a reassurance & needs to constantly feel loved & cared for.

They need constant support & attention from their partner, which is hard to keep up with. Like if it were up to a Venus in Cancer their entire life would revolve around their partner, but not everyone operates this way so they can be exhausting

Like they Venus in Cancers wanna spend allll their time with you. And when theyre not with you, they wanna text or talk on the phone theyre definitely clingy

Venus in Cancer shit

Their biggest strength & downfaill is their sensitivity & intuition. Theyre very tuned into other peoples feelings & whats unspoken, and can be thrown by the psychic turbulence of others. So they can “tell” when someone changes their emotions towards them.

Theyre overly sensitive so alot of time this isnt even the case but as soon as they sense any kind of change of vibe their dark side comes out

Let me remind u how similar venus Cancers are to venus scorpios in case u forgot (remember they are venus in scorpio w/out the self-sabotage)

If venus in Cancer feels like something is off where they dont feel safe & secure, they definitely develop obsessive & psychotic behaviors. They will not hesitate to become a detective and operate in psycho mode

They NEED to feel safe & as soon as they dont, they feel insecure. This is when the Jealousy comes out, the possessiveness, suspiciousness etc.

Yes they are the most soft, emotional & gentle Venus sign, but dont get it twisted they will pull up, call you a million times, call your friends, have a search team for you, show up in the trunk of your car

Because Venus in Cancers are so sensitive & impressionable, they can be very moody & have rapidly changing emotions & many ups & downs in their feelings.

Another thing Venus in Cancers can be really moody when they feel theyre not getting enough attention. They will be passive aggressive, they will give u the silent treatment (they love the silent treatment) & will have little bratty pouting routines to get attention

Venus in Cancers can be really defensive they tend to take everything personally & they dont take criticism well.

Venus in Cancer is one of my placements that fall under the category of people who take forever to get over someone. They take a while to open up to someone & it takes them probably even longer to get over it

Break-ups can be really difficult for them. They will hold on to a lost love for years and years. They have a really hard time forgetting when someone hurts them & will hold onto that word way beyond its expiration date

Venus in Cancer (esp. the women) are not interested in anything casual. They are looking for full-blown long-term love w/ emotional intimacy. Love without emotional involvement is pointless to them, they want a relationship where its a deep, heartfelt connection

They do not like investing their time in someone whose not the real deal. They dont wanna hook up, have flings, play the field, date around. Theyre definitely not the type of people to have sex without feelings there

This can come up as problematic bc they Cannot separate sex from relationships. Sex & relationships are synonymous to them. They think sex automatically means love. They can hurt themselves by convincing themselves everyone they have sex with is the love of their life

Venus in Cancers biggest turn-offs: abrupt & aggressive people, people who try to rush into romance, anything impersonal, anyone too aloof & detached

Oh & a side note which actually was meant to be further up in this thread - Venus in Cancers along w/ Venus in Virgos are the 2 placements that are complete healers when in love. Like once theyre in love with you, theyre gonna make you better. Theyre gonna improve ur entire life

W/ Venus ruling friendship & the type of friend you are/have, Venus in Cancer likes to keep a select few as their friends. Its quality over quantity. They dont wanna have a million friends theyd rather have like less than 10 really good, solid lifelong friends
