Venus and Saturn aspects

Venus and Saturn in aspect describe how caution, commitment and time shape your love life. Together, in step or at odds, they set how slowly you trust and how long your love lasts.

The glyphs of Venus and Saturn, and the marks of the aspects they make: conjunction, sextile, square, trine, opposition
All five major aspects

You have never fallen in love quickly. You have stayed in love for a very long time.

Venus is love and pleasure; Saturn is time, duty and caution. An aspect between them makes your heart serious, and the angle says whether that seriousness gives your love strength or makes it hard to reach.

Venus conjunct Saturn

You are loyal, reserved and careful in love. You take commitment seriously, admire maturity and value quality over quantity, in people and in things. A conjunction like this makes love slow to start and very hard to break.

Venus trine or sextile Saturn

Your affections are steady and faithful. You build relationships that last, keep your promises, and your taste matures into something classic. Constancy is in your nature with a trine; a sextile builds it over time.

Venus square or opposite Saturn

Love feels risky: fear of rejection, a feeling of being hard to love, relationships weighed down by duty or a wide gap in age. The square makes you hold back; the opposition draws you to people who are distant or demanding. Patience with yourself undoes it, and the love you build afterwards weathers anything.

Over the years the two meet in all five, some more often than others.
