Zodiac Signs and Relationships

When it comes to relationships, people with an emphasis on Aquarius are usually considered to be the most emotionally detached of all twelve zodiac signs. But it's important not just to look at where the Sun Sign is placed, but to also see which sign the other personal planets are located.

For relationship planets, the placement of Venus and Moon is very important in a man's chart in terms of what values and type of relationships he is looking for in a female. In women's charts, the Sun and Mars are traditionally considered the most relevant planets in terms of what characteristics the female is seeking in a man.

The moon is central for both sexes, in determining what kinds of emotional security the person is most likely drawn to.

I was once in a short relationship with a man who had a lovely Venus/Jupiter conjunction in Gemini. Not only were these planets conjunct my Ascendant, but they were trine some of my personal planets in Aquarius.

sexual astrologyI thought we would have a very rosy relationship. But I've read that men who have a Venus in Gemini are often not happy with just one female in their life. More often they need two. They are wonderfully poetic when it comes to verbal romancing, but they can be flighty and always on the lookout for the next interesting female to verbally seduce. This was certainly true of my ex-boyfriend, but I'm sure it doesn't necessarily apply to many men with Venus in Gemini.

Hi. My sun sign is virgo with an ascendant in capricorn. I have a real interest in Aquarius and feel very many Aquarian tendencies. Could this be linked to an unaspected Uranus or strong Saturn influences in my natal chart?

Yes, it could be due to a number of things. An unaspected Uranus could act powerfully in your chart. Maybe it's conjunct an angle (such as your Midheaven?)

Also, it's likely your
Capricorn Ascendant has progressed into Aquarius and is aspecting some of your personal planets. The progressed Ascendant moves on average one degree through the zodiac every year.

Another possibility is that you have lots of 11th house (Aquarian) placements or that your progressed Sun is now strongly aspecting your natal Uranus.

Thank you for your comment. My progressed sun has actually passed into Aries - just shows how old I am! However, I shall check my angles and aspects on this basis.

Thanks again.
