Venus, the planet of value, friends, partnerships and beauty is shifting into the zodiac sign that helps us to define status, big goals and strategic plans. There is also a sense of aged-wisdom found within the sign of Capricorn. Capricorn is an Earth Cardinal influence, helping us to feel a sense of practicality within our leadership. We also discover unusual beauty outside of the bold statements and societal perceptions of ideal. Appearances of wealth and success are frequently associated with the Venus in Capricorn transit although there is significantly more to it than simply want and desire.
The Venus in Capricorn transit influences all of us by encouraging us to be better, to improve our sense of worth or our reputation. It is no surprise that the New Year resolution occurs during the sign of the Solar Capricorn transit. We are able to clearly see what the problems are, and we are ready to move forward to actually fix the issues. On the other hand, the fix is never quick and easy, and despite our determination while we are being influenced with the Capricorn energies, it is short lived, and once the planets have moved past Capricorn, we are right back to our old practices that don't truly resolve the problems.
Some of the difficult issues that we encounter with Venus in Capricorn is an unrealistic perspective to an ideal/goal that we would like to attain. We can see the problem, we can see where we need to go with fixing it, but we can't quite come to terms with the "necessary" for the fix. We push, but when reality pushes back, we may be a bit too quick to start looking for a new solution.
Individuals born with Venus in Capricorn can appear to be more serious within their relationships with others. There tends to be a shy, reserved trait but it usually is due to their desire to control their emotions so that their outward expressions are not presented as weak or insecure. The individual does not like to deal with the hurt and vulnerability that is frequently associated with romance. They also tend to keep their financial matters very private to minimize the likelihood of public scrutiny. Unfortunately, trying to hide from these situations does not prevent uncomfortable situations from occurring for the Venus in Capricorn. Perhaps one of the most cruel features of the Capricorn Venus is that when their attempts to protect themselves fail, they internalize the pain, frequently causing them to suffer more than necessary.
