Venus Conjunct Saturn Natal Meaning: the Rose Turned into Stone
When two planets are conjunct in astrology, the two energies become one. The planets blend into each other and have to deal with everything together. This can be easy or difficult, depending on the nature of the planets in question and how they can cooperate.
Venus conjunct Saturn is one of the more difficult conjunctions. However, Saturn is exalted in Libra, a sign ruled by Venus. This helps the conjunction despite the challenging nature of Saturn.
As always, the sign and house of the conjunction are key. They modify how you experience a placement and which planet dominates the conjunction.
If Saturn is emphasized in your chart, you were probably a precocious child. Venus conjunct Saturn natal is the most felt in childhood and young adulthood. As you get older, Saturn issues usually get easier. But when young, it is usually a very lonely experience.
If you have your Venus conjunct Saturn in the natal chart, it can indicate longer periods of being single in your life. This is especially likely if Venus or Saturn rules your fifth or seventh house. The same is true if the conjunction is located in one of these houses.
With difficult Saturn aspects, the struggle is so constant that it becomes normalized. Saturn represents patterns, things you do over and over. So it might be necessary to consciously change your patterns related to relationship and love.
Venus-Saturn aspects, especially the hard ones, can manifest as a romantic opportunity not coming to fruition because of various blockages. For example, one of you might be moving, there might be some things in life that demand your full attention, people who are important in your life are against it etc. So even if you mutually like each other, the relationship doesn’t solidify because of one reason or another. This conjunction can also manifest as being in a challenging relationship of some kind, for example being in a long-distance relationship.
However, as always, you need to look at the whole chart.
Venus conjunct Saturn natal indicates that enjoying life is tricky for you. There can be a tendency towards depression if there are other indicators in the chart. Venus is about finding the beauty in everything. When it is overshadowed by Saturn, you see what is bad and what can go wrong instead of finding joy in the moment. For example, you might be anxious and angry about a coffee costing too much instead of cherishing the beautiful interior of the café and appreciating the company of the person you are out with.
This conjunction very often indicates a tendency to be caught up in depression and anxiety. Venus represents your ability to enjoy life. With Saturn involved, you focus on the negative even when there is plenty of positive.
When it comes to relationships, your standards are very high. This is true for friendships too, you prefer being around people who have earned your respect and who you can look up to. You curate your environment with great care. You are attracted to people who uplift and help you.
With good aspects, Venus conjunct Saturn natal suggests patience and tolerance in your relationships.
Venus is the planet of self-esteem. People with Venus-Saturn aspects often have to ‘earn’ their self-esteem. It very often manifests as feeling unlovable. At a young age, they might struggle with feelings of worthlessness and low self-esteem. With the square and the opposition, the low self-esteem can drive them into relationships that hurt them, but with the conjunction, especially if it is otherwise well-aspected, this is less likely to be the case.
You often feel that you have to ‘earn’ someone’s love. You are driven to accomplish a lot in the material world. People with this placement are often ambitious and become indeed successful. Accomplishments make you more
When you find a person with whom you are on the same wavelength, you are extremely loyal. However, you show your love more through acts of service and supporting your partner, not so much in grand gestures. You might not be very romantic on the surface, but you are an extremely committed person. You just dislike being very emotional, and you don’t need the constant display of emotions from your partner either.
While it’s not always the case, but Venus conjunct Saturn people usually dislike flings. They are more into long-term things. If you have this aspect, your relationships are likely to persist.
This conjunction can also manifest as trouble finding balance between dedicating your time to work and relationships. You are not very spontaneous romantically.
Saturn’s influence grounds Venus. It makes Venus more realistic and objective, which is particularly felt if your Venus is in an emotional, dreamy or impulsive zodiac sign.
Venus conjunct Saturn natal suggests that you are very responsible with money. You avoid overspending and you always have some money saved. You might deny yourself even the things you really like and objectively can afford in a fear of not having enough later. People with this placement worry a lot about money (even if they realistically don’t have to). Depending on the rest of the chart, money comes to you slowly but steadily. This conjunction can also indicate making money off Saturnian things, or if the rest of the chart supports it, even having a career related to money management.
Venus Conjunct Saturn Karma
Traditionally a malefic planet, Saturn is considered a difficult influence in astrology. It is not something that can’t be resolved, though. With patience and effort, you can work through your Saturn issues and turn the struggle into mastery.
This is a very karmic conjunction – all Saturn aspects are. Venus conjunct Saturn suggests sorrow related to love. According to karmic astrology, you might have been betrayed, left, rejected. It is said that with this aspect, the soul decided to take a break from relationships in this lifetime.
With the conjunction, this is not so expressed, but with the square and opposition Venus-Saturn aspects suggest severe relationship trauma in the past.
Your Partner
Venus conjunct Saturn suggests that your partner is often older than you.
It is important to you that your partner supports your growth. Partners who hold you back or who don’t have understanding for the demands of your profession are not for you. Your partners are often very successful themselves too. You tend to be attracted to people who have successfully climbed the ladder. You are attracted to people who motivate you and understand your ambition.
Venus conjunct Saturn can also indicate your partner improving your social status.
It suggests being attracted to partners who are very serious and mature (intellectually and emotionally).
