Astrology and Love: Who Can Manage It?
Ask the collective.
The soldier over the weekend:
“Did he love you?” he asked.
“No, I don’t think he did,” I said regarding a man in my past. “I don’t see how he could have loved me and treated me the way he did. But it’s okay. I didn’t take it personally because I don’t think he loves anyone or probably ever has. I don’t think he knows how. He just has… he has other concerns I guess.”
“I know I can love,” he said.
“I know I can love too. And I’m glad and grateful because I think there are people out there with no capacity or ability to love another person at all. I would die if that were me. I just don’t see how I would live but I really think this. That there are people like that, I mean. Do you agree?’
“Yeah, I think there are a lot of people out there like that. They don’t love anyone, no one at all and I don’t know how they do it either. I have to love. I have to love or I’d go crazy.”
“Ditto.”
Do you have to love? Where is your Venus?

I’m not sure, but then Venus is in my 12th house. I’d say that I love all the time but it depends on the type of love you’re talking about. I love but I’m not partnered.
I’m not sure I’ve ever met anyone who I thought didn’t love in some degree. I just think it gets twisty sometimes.
intense love is a part of my nature, i believe. i have venus in scorp, trine 7th house saturn. i take love very seriously.
You guys are great…
I have Venus in Aries in the 12th, conjunct Jupiter, trine Moon in Leo. It never stops.
B
I love, but not everyone. I say ‘I love you’ if I do…I dated someone for a year and did not say those words…and others and not uttered these words. It bothers me that people can be so flagrant with these special and sweet and heart filling to the bring full bodied words…
Triple leo/gemini with pluto in hard aspect to ven/jup. I’m too serious
(chuckle) My sentimentality creates havoc in my plutonian infused heart.
Gem venus in 3rd house on anaretic degree…oh my!
Aries Venus in 5th conjunct Saturn and square Cappy Moon. I love selectively, but totally. It always hurts, tho.
…Venus in Aries (5th)…
I love completely when I love you, but I’ve gotten more selective with whom I direct my emotional floodwaters. Does that make sense? Also the Pisces in me likes to reminisce about past relationships…really is it odd that I just want to take pieces of each of them and mold my perfect man??
I frequently feel a sneaking suspicion I’m one of those people who don’t really know how. But I have Venus in Libra (8th house).
Absolutely, 7th house!
yes. but i think that’s the saturn trine. and who knows, maybe pluto, too.
life would be very gray and dull without love, can’t imagine a life without it. yes, i have to love someone, everyone, all the time
it is what makes life beautiful, no? venus in aries in 11th
It takes a while, but once your in my heart…you’re there forever. Capricorn Venus/Mars/Sun trine Pluto/sextile Neptune.
Yes, I have to love. I have Venus conjunct the Sun, Merc, and Mars, and trine Jupiter.
I grew up in an emotionally abusive household and never really got in touch with my emotions until, oh, 21? 22? So I’ve totally experienced the “live without love” aspect, and it really, truly, honestly blows. I can’t even comprehend how I coped with it since I started allowing myself to feel.
Venus conjunct Mars/Pluto in 4th, Libra.
With a few conditions (Virgo! Their lists! ;)):
Love must be deep, all-encompassing, and the erson has to be handpicked by me. Expect the biggest freeze-out outside of the Arctic if you choose me and I don’t feel a thing for you.
Picky? Yes. Do I need to love? Absolutely, but on my own terms.
Libra on 7th house cusp, Jupiter exactly conjunct DSC, Venus in Vrgo, conjunct Uranus and Pluto.
I think I’m one of those people who have to learn how to love. Was numb for a number of years. That’s why therapy helped. I’m sure all those people who can’t love would blossom in such situations. That love is there, just buried deep.
Funny thing is the more I love, the more love I have to give. It grows the more I give. I didn’t know that. Thought it was a zero-sum game.
Venus in Virgo-4th house
I have to love, but not necessarily in a romantic way. But love…can’t live without it. lol, I think it’s part of my caretaker role, too. It all goes hand in hand for me.
12th House Venus in Leo, conj. Mercury, sq. MH and Neptune.
Stellium in 7th, stationary venus in aries, neptune ruled..love is all.
