Venus Sextile Mars / Venus Trine Mars Meaning in the Natal Chart
Venus and Mars are each other’s opposites. Venus is soft, graceful, tactful, the planet of peace, while Mars is raw, fiery, the planet of aggression and war. Venus and Mars are both about desire but in a very different way. The energy of Venus gets what it wants by attracting it, while the energy of Mars by chasing it and fighting for it. In the Venus sextile Mars and Venus trine Mars natal aspects, these two polarities work together in a very harmonious way, the yin and yang energies are balanced in you.

Your Love Life
As both Venus and Mars are linked with attraction and sex in astrology, they reveal a lot about your love life. You need to look at the rest of the chart too, but here’s what Venus sextile or trine Mars in your natal chart tells us about what you want in a relationship.
Venus sextile/trine Mars indicates a quiet sensuality. You are attractive and people are drawn to you. You often have many lovers and you love the thrill of flirting (especially if you have this aspect in fire or air signs). Chasing someone is a lot of fun for you but if they are too unavailable you lose your interest. You are in tune with your desires on a more abstract and emotional level too: you don’t chase things you cannot get but also don’t give up to soon or not even try.
Your idea of love is intense and burning. In a relationship, you need both the spark and emotional closeness, if one’s missing, the connection might not work out. You want a partner who inspires and motivates you, someone who is at your level and challenges you. You even love a good fight from time to time, a person who agrees with you on everything gets boring really fast. Although it’s more the case with the hard aspects between Venus and Mars, you enjoy drama in moderate amounts.
One of the issues of this aspect can be getting bored when the initial thrill wears off, although this is more likely to be a problem with the negative aspects. With the harmonious aspects, you can keep things fresh relatively effortlessly.
Venus sextile or trine Mars suggests a healthy relationship with sexuality. People with this aspect tend to have a high libido. They are at peace with their desires, neither repressing them (as with hard Saturn aspects) nor being consumed by them (as with Pluto or square Mars). The harmonious aspects also suggest that you are someone who doesn’t seek validation for your sexuality but simply enjoys it. The square between Venus and Mars tends to be more overtly sexual.
In the birth chart of a woman, this aspect suggests very attractive, confident and passionate men coming into her life. In a man’s chart, it suggests that he is attracted to independent women who have a strong personality and go after what they want.
Difference Between the Venus Sextile Mars and Venus Trine Mars Natal Aspects
Both of the Venus sextile Mars and Venus trine Mars natal aspects are very favorable. The energy flows easily between the two planets.
With the trine, the things linked with this energy blend come so naturally to you that you might not even be aware of them. You tap into them instinctively, completely effortlessly.
Venus trine Mars natal is more evident than the sextile. The Venus sextile Mars natal aspect requires some effort to come into full bloom, it’s something you can master but you have to put in some effort. It is often dormant until you start exploring it. Growth opportunities might come through creative or romantic interactions.
