How you love and what you find beautiful — the planet of attraction and worth.
Venus rules love, beauty, pleasure, and values. Its sign describes how you attract, what you find beautiful, and the way you give and receive affection.
Venus governs relationships, aesthetics, money, and what you value. A well-placed Venus brings charm, harmony, and an eye for beauty; it shows what — and who — you’re drawn to.

Venus rules love, beauty, pleasure, and worth — how you attract, what you find beautiful, and the way you give and receive affection. It governs money, taste, and values, the things and people you draw toward you. Where Venus sits is where you seek harmony, sweetness, and connection.
About every 18 months, Venus turns retrograde for roughly six weeks. Relationships, finances, and self-worth come up for review — exes reappear, and you reassess what (and who) you truly value. It is a time to reflect on love rather than chase it, and to redefine beauty and worth on your own terms.
The three areas of life Venus most strongly governs.
How you love, attract, and relate to others.
Your aesthetics, taste, and creative pleasures.
What you value, enjoy, and want to attract.
