Venus in Pisces (Exalted): Urge to merge + Spiritual Marriage

How can you find your VENUS sign: online Ephemeris

Also, the house, where venus is located is important since the "sign" is the energy, in this case, PISCES Mutable water & the house represents how that energy is put to use.

What does "exalted" mean? is a sign placement where a planet can most fully express itself- this is a combo that breaks down boundaries- the only problem, if there is nothing to contain this free flowing expression of affection love, & emotion- it could be poured purely on the wrong person.

The person who becomes romantically involved with such a person has to be stronger in the stability department. Or there will be much jealousy & unintentional insecurities:

Women (like myself) need a man who likes fishing to reel her in when she drifts on to someone or something that "appears" more interesting or can provide more security & creature comforts. She like to be pampered, massaged, fed- its not that she is materialist- she's just so sweet, easy going, cuddly. Look deeper. Lover for this woman must have a spiritual element for it to ever get off the ground. Unfortunately, if a lover cannot appeal to her fantasies- he will never ever win her heart.
*Key* Make it look effortless- if you try too hard, she will see right through the act. It has to be natural & sincere. Her ability to make anyone feel relaxed in her presence is a gift. All she really wants is her equal in that erotic zone.
All her life, others wanted to spoil her. If she's not born into a life of privilege life will be rather harsh & depressing. With a strong imagination & compassion:
She attracts the people she wants: Law of attraction.

*warning* Sympathy could be mistaken for love. Never confuse "feeling sorry" or wanting to "save" someone for REAL LOVE.

The man is similar: Hes a seducer, surprising romantic for a man- a dream boat. However this combo is feminine, not as strong manly placement- what he lacks in aggression, he makes up in romance. He might be the Playboy/toy boy- like HUGH HEFNER, an Aries sun with venus/moon in pisces H6. Another infamous ladies man, also an Aries sun with STRONG pisces placements including venus, mars, jupiter~ the epitome of an Italian Stallion.

*Key for venus pisces* SERVICE, like Virgo, the opposite sign- pisces either SERVER or are being SERVED depending on the strength of the partner- the roles reverse... enjoy it- role playing is a perfect way to spice up a relationship that has gotten a bit boring. Learn to "talk dirty" ladies- don't be ashamed to express your wildest desires & live out all your fantasies- the only thing that STOPS you, is your own inner fears & insecurities. Most men say they prefer a "round" woman within reason as opposed to a rail thin model type. Embrace your softness.

Pisces needs unconditional love. VENUS supplies this love to almost everyone from the pauper on the street corner to the CEO of a major corporation- here, illusion & idealization could be the downfall...to many fantasies, not enough time.

Neptune is sometimes referred to as the “higher octave” of Venus. Perhaps this idea comes from the fact that Venus is traditionally exalted in Pisces, and Pisces’ modern ruler is Neptune . However, Pisces’ traditional ruler (before Neptune was discovered) is Jupiter. Jupiter is a planet that has to do with morality, philosophy, and democratic laws which keep us in balance and harmony.

George Washington, the first U.S. president, was a Pisces Sun who also had his Venus in Pisces just two degrees from its highest point of exaltation. He really showed the Jupiter-Pisces side of Venus in his embrace of a new nation founded on laws which promoted freedom.

Venus is of course the feminine archetype in the horoscope. It is for each of us the anima, the feminine aspect of the soul. It is a planet most strongly associated with love. Venus’ sign also shows the image of an ideal lover that we carry around within of us.

Venus is associated with the arts in general, and the voice in particular. It's no surprise that such illustrious female singers as Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Billie Holiday and Celine Dion were all born with Venus in Pisces. The artistic expression (Venus) of fantasy (Pisces) is perfect for actresses Patricia Arquette, Drew Barrymore, Geena Davis, Laura Dern, Bridget Fonda, Michelle Pfeiffer and Vanessa Redgrave, as well as actors John Travolta, Sidney Poitier and Michael Caine.

Writers Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Charles Dickens, Vladimir Nabokov, Anais Nin, Edgar Allan Poe, Carl Sandburg and Jules Verne all reflect the rich Venus in Pisces imagination in their work.

The spiritual side of Venus in Pisces is well represented by metaphysician Manley Palmer Hall, mystical musician George Harrison, well-armed guru Elizabeth Clare Prophet, psychedelic meditator Ram Dass, new age writer-actress Shirley MacLaine, author Ken Keyes and social activist Dr. Martin Luther King.

Three famous people with Venus in Pisces have promulgated their own ideas about love. They are Cosmopolitan's Helen Gurley Brown, Playboy's Prez HUGH HEFNER and the one and only CASANOVA.

The MOST compatible sun/venus signs for PISCES =

Taurus (fixed - earth)

Venus in Taurus produces a practical, stable, and constant persona. Your approach to love and romance is simple and direct. Your sincerity is attractive and often irresistible. You take love seriously and with careful consideration.

Yet, you can be so much fun to be around. You are rarely too serious-acting, moody or unhappy. You know how to have a good time and to help others to do the same. You are easygoing and cheerful most of the time.

There is an attraction to the luxuries of life, and often a tendency to overindulge in sensual pleasures. You may have a weakness for good food, good wine, fine furnishings and clothes, and many more objects and activities that delight the senses. The best of everything will be yours if you can figure a way to afford it all.

This large appetite extends to love-making and romantic involvement. This sign produces the most earthy sex drive.

When you fall in love, it is usually permanent and dependable. Your nature is faithful and permanent. You require a deep commitment from your partner and you are willing to give the same in return. You are loyal and a one-love person. But your demands on that one lover can be great.

If you feel insecure, you may become jealous and overbearing with your mate. Just as you are loyal and dependable, you are very possessive and jealous if your emotional security is threatened.

Capricorn (Cardinal earth)

If Venus is in Capricorn in your chart it produces a seriousness, a sense of caution, and a degree of pride associated with the affections. You are actually a little timid in love affairs, and very reserved in expressing feelings. Romantic feelings can be extreme strong inside, while on the surface you appear emotionally distant and reserved. Highly restrained, you're unlikely to make an overt public display of emotions. You do display a quiet personal dignity and refinement.

In truth, you are romantically insecure, fearing rejection and loneliness. Emotional feelings are often repressed and seem to be absent most of the time.

This Venus placement often spurs ambitions and the desire for prestige and status. You may indeed be at your charming best in the work environment, since you are so intensely involved in this arena. Often, romantic involvement starts here. Some with Venus in Capricorn seek love and partnership solely because they view it as the appropriate thing to do, and doing the proper thing is so fundamental to the psychology of this placement.

You expect your partner to be a helpmate in the struggle for success and achievement. Though never openly demonstrative, you are steadfast and loyal. You have a very solid and deep sense of responsibility in romantic attachments and marriage. When it comes to commitment, you are definitely the old-fashioned type. You are a one-love person who is extremely dependable.

Cancer (Cardinal water) If Venus is in Cancer in your chart, it produces deeply sensitive feelings. This extreme sensitivity means that feelings can be easily hurt, but you hide this vulnerability behind a somewhat dignified exterior.

You have a very kindhearted and sympathetic nature, but your moods can be fluctuating and unpredictable. You approach love relationships with tenderness and great need, but there is always a sense of caution too. You know you are easily hurt and you want to protect yourself at all times.

The attitude toward relationships is one of nurturing or "mothering," clinging tightly to those you love. You need to be well anchored in a relationship as the feeling of security and stability is all important to you. You like your mate to be demonstrative and provide you with clear signs that your deep feelings are appreciated and returned in kind. To you, love is home and hearth, a nest that is safe and secure. When you achieve this feeling of security, you focus on pay back in kind by doing all you can to nourish your partner's ego and ambitions.

Avoid tendencies to sulk and feel sorry for yourself. Your feeling are so easily hurt, and you try to hide it by pretending it doesn't matter. Sometimes emotions take over, and sentimentality runs wild. You demand so much in romance that you are bound to have a few disappointments along the way. Your "one and only" cannot be one who does not provide the stability you must have. So you must ultimately suffer some breakups when you discover that attribute is missing. You are definitely the one-lover type. When that one stable love comes along, the relationship will be permanent.

Scorpio (fixed water) If Venus is in Scorpio in your chart it no doubt produces a very intense romantic nature. In relationships, you are very straightforward, determined, and direct. You often express excesses of feelings, being very possessive and sometimes jealous.

Scorpio is the sign of physical magnetism. It is the sign of the zodiac that is said to "rule" sex. Born with Venus in Scorpio, you are no doubt a very sexy person. You approach the emotional experience of romance with much intensity and much feeling. In this area of your life, you are an extremist. Your love nature is based on total commitment and complete focus. With you there is no fooling around. You dominate and demand total involvement. Nothing short of this is acceptable.

No matter what happens to you, your dignity is something that is never lost or put aside. The intensity of emotions resulting in this placement make it clear that matters of the heart are taken seriously and personally. You display your strong sense of personal pride and emotional dignity in all that you do.

Because your love desire is so overwhelming, you sometimes become very possessive of your partner. This can be both in a physical as well as a psychological sense. You may express this in minor ways, but in some way or another you tend to control and hold on to the love of your life. You are in control and there is no doubt about it.

Last, but NOT least- its either amazing or stay away- opposites can either ATTRACT or REPEL...
VENUS IN VIRGO (Mutable Earth~ Pisces opposite)

From experience, many of my long term relationships where with venus in earthy signs- they can be materialist & possessive however they provide a container, affection, & strong security which Pisces "secretly craves". Earthy people usually have strong loyal characters unlike fighty air & impatient fire.

Cancer is the best water sign for pisces. Especially when it comes for home/domestic/family life- very fertile. while SCORPIO may start out very passionate, they are very possessive & controlling. Pisces is supposed to be MOST compatible with the "scorpion", they are just NOT for me, maybe its all the air in my chart- I was totally turned off & suffocated by their intensity- It worked for: Demi & Bruce / Elizabeth & Richard Burton (married twice).
