Venus in Virgo

Venus in Virgo - Shukra in Kanya

Venus in the sign of Virgo. This is the weakest sign for Venus, the place of its debilitation, and as a consequence various problems may arise. They may have quarrels with the marriage partner, a sudden loss of property, poverty or a lack of scruple in the means of earning, distress connected with the sexual organs or the excretory system. They may be learned and religious, may be indifferent to things relating to the material. They may help the devotees of God. (Tom Hopke)

Venus in Virgo: Venus is debilitated in the sign of Virgo. Virgo is a beautiful girl with great ambitions. Here Virgo does not let Venus amuse herself and lie on the sofa. Virgo gives her a work overall and sends her to the kitchen to cook borscht. She has no time to think about her beauty and her love. Therefore a debilitated Venus makes the person more domestically capable. Such a person does not think about expensive things and about how to spend money on entertainment. They think that one can be entertained and travel later, in retirement, and that now one must earn money. They think more about how to provide for their family and for themselves in old age. They are so domesticated that in time they become experts in household matters. They may have failures in romantic relationships and in married life. Such people have few friends. They are busy with their own affairs all the time and have no time to be entertained.

When Venus is in debilitation, the person sympathises with other people's problems and wishes to help them, since he himself has to face problems. When it is in exaltation, the person is in euphoria all the time and thinks that others have the same carefree life. A strong Venus always wants to attain success by an easy path and perceives the world through the feelings. When Venus is in Virgo it begins to switch on the brains and becomes calculating. Therefore Venus in Virgo brings success in business. When Venus is in Virgo it is not bad for material well-being, but it may bring problems in the field of love and marriage. It is said that Jupiter gives well-being, but as a rule people do not receive material well-being during the mahadasha of Jupiter. During the mahadasha of Jupiter the person receives well-being in the form of knowledge and spirituality, and the person becomes wise. During the mahadasha of Venus the person receives well-being in material life.

Venus is debilitated in Virgo. I wrote above how Venus behaves in Virgo. A beautiful woman dreams of finding herself a place where she can enjoy herself. The ruler of Virgo is Mercury. We know that Mercury is considered impotent in astrology. Also, Virgo has no time for beauty and sex. This is the place of service and commerce. It is also the belly. One has to cook and feed the family. Therefore the beautiful girl has to work a great deal and take care of the family. They do not spend much money on beauty, clothes and objects of luxury. They are very simple in behaviour, patient, calculating, and they have no aim of being the most beautiful in the world. They value natural beauty and natural behaviour in a person more. Such a person wants to educate others, to see reality. Therefore it seems that they love to criticise everything. They are meticulous, they think carefully, weigh the pluses and minuses and take correct decisions. They do not waste time on useless parties and empty conversations and want to occupy themselves with useful matters. In love they are very reserved and unromantic. Even in this sphere they have their own rules. In a man's chart this may mean that the person will find himself a wife who is unsuitable in social status, or that he will have relationships with his subordinates, with housemaids or with immoral women.

For example, Bill Clinton was born when Venus was in Virgo. He had scandalous affairs with his subordinates.

I shall give one more example. This is Warren Buffett (date of birth 1930.08.30), one of the wealthiest men in the USA. He too was born when Venus was in Virgo. He still lives in the house he bought in 1958 for $31,000. At the same time, in 2006, he gave 37 billion dollars to charity. This is considered the largest act of charity. He once said, «I do not want to do useless things. I am not concerned with what other rich people do. I do not want to buy a 123-metre yacht because someone has a 122-metre yacht.» He parted from his first wife and began to associate with a woman who worked as a waitress in a café and brought him his food. They associated secretly from 1977 and married only in 2006, after the death of his first wife in 2004.

Prince Charles is another such example. He too has Venus in Virgo. He associated with Camilla for more than 30 years, even before his wedding to Princess Diana. They registered their relationship after Diana's death. All these facts show the character of Venus in Virgo. (Mahesh Dharmadasa)

Venus in Virgo (the sign of fall): gentle, calm, down-to-earth; pleasant speech, work of a dubious character. Fault-finding, does not show his feelings outwardly. Spiritual love is more important to him than physical love. If Venus is afflicted, there is a probability of several marriages. (Sri Govind Swarup Agarwal)

VENUS IN VIRGO

Practically always this person has some kind of fear. Venus falls into a practical, logical sign, but Venus is love and feeling, and it is incompatible with logic, system and cold calculation. It is like going up to a person and saying: «I love you unconditionally, let us calculate everything». Venus, the emotional, divine, romantic, loving principle, falls into a down-to-earth, practical sign, into the abstract 6th house. In the 6th house Venus often gives diabetes, metabolic disorders, venereal diseases. Venus in the 7th house also gives venereal diseases.

Whichever house Venus in Virgo is connected with, that is usually where the person's attachments lie. If Venus is connected with the 4th house there may be an attachment to stability. If Venus in Virgo is in the 5th house, then the person has a mad attachment to his children, to those he loves. If the person does not work on himself, then Venus in Virgo is a 99% indication that he will be left by a loved one at least once. And usually these are fears, because fear is the opposite of love.

Such a person may have problems with friends over money, or he is cheated out of money. Often this gives problems with the excretory system, the urogenital system. They are too demanding, first of all towards themselves. Or the pendulum may swing the other way, and the person may, for example, dress quite tastelessly. Usually such people have no vivid emotions, or on the contrary they are excessively emotional, but as a rule reason governs the feelings.

Venus shows the wife in a man's chart (some schools consider that it shows the partner in general).

Venus is also the karaka of the 7th house, and therefore if it is weakened or afflicted in a person's chart, all kinds of partnership suffer, above all sexual partnership.

If Venus is in Virgo, then such a person needs to be more careful with partners. I had one example: Libra rising with Venus in fall in the 12th house and Jupiter exalted in the 10th house. He was the head of a religious centre, a very spiritual person, but he had an inner fear and he was cruel, he did not know how to communicate. When he changed, his chart played with new colours and the positive points began to manifest.

If Venus is in goodness, such a person may be very wise, religious, learned. He may be indifferent to the material and help the poor and the faithful. Such people are very caring. This gives a striving for a healthy way of life and domestic capability. Such a person may be long-lived. They make very good specialists in the field of nutrition, and fashion designers. If a person works on a planet in fall, then the pendulum swings the other way and Venus manifests through its higher aspect — a sense of divine love, of wisdom. For example, Shivananda Swami.

Such people have a great feeling for morals and morality, a feeling for beauty in the classical and slightly orthodox understanding. Such a person is very calm. They often have platonic love: «we have been going out for a year already, and we walked hand in hand under the moon for the first time». One way or another, such people have some delays and anxieties in love. There may be a double attachment: they love both this one and that one (it is considered that this manifests more in women).

Such people have achievements through servants, through helpers, through medicine, through medicines and, interestingly, through singing. Such men usually speak very sweetly with women. It is observed to a greater degree in men that they are inclined towards women of a low level, a low class, especially if Venus is connected with Rahu or Rahu falls into the 7th house — then this manifests vividly.

You must also look at which nakshatra the planet is in; if, for example, Venus is in Hasta, then these people have golden hands.

Such people must not eat much. With Venus in Virgo one must not eat much sweet food or potatoes at all; it is better to keep to a constant and regular diet, otherwise there may be a digestive disorder.

This is the sign of Venus's fall, and therefore if the person does not work on himself, the negative points of Venus will be manifested: painful attachment, problems with friends over money, inner fears and so on.

«I need stability… Yes, I have been left».

«My friend has it in the 12th house — a man borrowed a large sum and disappeared».

«My father has it — very caring, everything is fine with my mother».

«Yes, my self-criticism goes off the scale».

«My husband has Venus in Virgo in the 3rd house — «a surgeon's hands». Golden hands. He can build and repair everything himself. Since childhood he took all his toys apart at once. Yes, he is strict and critical».
