Transit Uranus Conjunct Venus: An Awakening in Love and Values

Transit Uranus conjunct Venus is a period of unexpected awakening in someone's love life, values, tastes and relationship with money. Venus concerns love, attraction, aesthetics and the resources one owns; Uranus brings surprise and freedom into that area. The person questions anew what, whom and why they love.

What happens in love when transit Uranus conjoins Venus?

For a single person an unexpected, electric meeting is the typical scene; the relationship may start in an unusual way or fall outside their usual type. In long-term relationships there is a need for more freedom, a new shared excitement or a fresh conversation about the rules of the relationship. Tastes in style, clothing or home decor may change abruptly. In money matters unexpected income or a sudden urge to spend may appear.

A year-long field of attraction

Uranus lingers over Venus for close to a year and, because of the retrograde cycle, often conjoins it exactly three times. Restlessness or excitement builds in relationships on the approach, concrete meetings or decisions arrive at the exact passes, and new emotional and material values settle in as it separates. The houses ruled by Venus, where Taurus and Libra fall in the chart, share in this change too.

Between excitement and commitment

Not every relationship that begins under this conjunction will last, but each teaches the person what they truly want. Waiting a while before big purchases and sudden financial decisions, and sharing the need for freedom openly with a partner, make this transit invigorating rather than destructive.
