Relationship Space
Venus and Mars are very tightly conjoined now in Libra. This is bringing a lot of pressure and heat in our relationships. It may be natural for you to feel the need to create some space there as the desire and pull is very hot and strong.
Venus is the desire and capacity to compromise and Mars is the desire to assert our individuality. These lessons are often at crossed purposes. In fact, relationships are where we test our integrity along these lines. So now that they are both occupying the same couple of degrees in the sky, so these tendencies are getting blurred and also unified around one expereince.
However, Venus is in Libra, dominating and in powerful dignity, so the energy of Mars is more subservient to the energy of Venus. Our desire to connect is very strong right now, but Mars is still there, asserting our individuality. There is a lot of potential to see into our tendency to overcompensate in order to maintain connection and happiness. In this overcompensation we sell our personal integrity short, and then Mars energy within us rebels and fights to reclaim this lost territory.
True relationship happiness comes when there is a balance, a compromise, and when we understand those non-negotiables up front. When this happens, we don’t condition our partners to think that we are okay with certain things that we will later fight to re-establish.
Work Space – Responsibility Space
In addition to the Mars-Venus conjunction in Libra, there is a Saturn-Sun conjunction in Virgo which is also very tight. This is draining our energy and confidence, and making us feel overworked and a bit tired. Since we have been working very hard, and we have been very hopeful and inspired about our work based on the Jupiter aspect from Pisces, now is a very inconvenient time for us to suffer a confidence gap or a sudden onset of fatigue. Oh, how very inconvenient!,.. I have been thinking lately. But we may need to take a “responsibility break” or assess the millions of things we are inspired to do right now.
We need to honor the cycles of the universe and make sure to not burn ourselves out, or there will be fatigue, grouchiness, and the potential for a health problem. So you may have to take things a little slower right now, be more thorough. Make sure to honor your need for rest and rejuvenation, and be careful of that old confidence lack that could really undermine your intentions. Instead, connect to a deeper source of humility and service.
best wishes,
Sam

Not feeling I'm needing space or overworked…. completely the opposite. Being unemployed, has me wanting almost begging to do something with sooo much time on my hands.
One thing I have noticed, is that everyone is getting this feeling of "winning the lotto". I know I have had that feeling many times. The way I look at it, is that there will be some changes or positive energy that will be coming to those who experience that feeling of "winning the lotto".
'We need to honor the cycles of the universe and make sure to not burn ourselves out'….thank u sam…u r right.
My relationship is in the dire straights. I want to leave but am afraid. I don''t want to hurt anyones feelings or make them feel bad. What a wimp I feel like.
I am not working as hard as I was but I have started school and am working full time so I guess that counts.
I feel this pressure of the planets big time.
I try to remember that being uncomfortable is or can be a sign of evolution as a result of changing habitual patterns
I recently got back from India last month
and since then I have not eaten meat
I haven't tried this seriously for almost 20 years
and I feel the same sort of insecurities that I felt at that age
it's almost as if I am questioning everything again whereas before I had more confidence
I guess this is just the gurus way of testing us and our faiths
as a yoga teacher in NYC I notice that people are definately up for a challenge but they need to do it in a way that is sustainable way with hula dance breaks and other oddly strange but imperative rituals
om nama sivaya!
In major Venus, sub Mercury.(5th house) Sun in Libra in fourth, Mars in 6th Sag., Saturn in Virgo in 3rd. Have entered negotiations for property sale, and experiencing communication mix up, hidden adjendas,had to lower my price and take a loss for my asking sale price. Do you think it's a wise time to sell right now?
Thanks Sam! Since I am not in an intimate relationship, I am not noticing any relationship problems. However, my close friend has been having severe relationship difficulty with her spouse of 20 years…his tendency to make his personal desires an issue vs. her tendency to please everyone in her family, not just him, and also to take care of herself. I am feeling the impact of Saturn/Sun conjunction/combust in my physical body…less energy and I feel drained physically. My doctor recently informed me that my thyroid hormone is elevated, which causes sluggishness! Saturn and Venus are in my 1st house in Libra. Namaste!
Thanks Sam!! Yes I was less energetic during this time and very frankly to the point of being lazy. Relationsships have suffered due to this. Saturn and Venus are in my second house in picses. Thanks once again.
Sam,
you have NO idea (or maybe you do) how precisely you have just enumerated my current circumstance. its actually kind of spooky. thank you for this clarity
This is right on for me. I have taken on a lot of work lately, then an unexpected event happened and a certain person is turning to me for help and I'm am getting grouchy about it… feeling as if I can't take on anymore and that the person needs to help themselves not be such a baby. I'm feeling possibly the Mars Venus struggle in my art.. this extra work is interfering with my art making time and Im frustrated about it. Maybe that's the Mars Venus conjunction not sure.
Sam,
I am impressed by the logical explanations of conjunctions of planets.
As a hobby, I have studied vedic astrology and detailed astronomy. I found arithmetic and mathematic involved is much in details with accuracy but predication part is much difficult.
My birth date is August07, 1953. 18.23 Mumbai
I have been working for a project ( details on my web site.
Project is of very good cause useful to enable Banks in defending the menace of fake notes. The machine is accepted as most accurate and appreciated much by RBI, and many other Banks.
Some of in spite of appreciation of the project the Bankers appears to have been less responsive. I invested time efforts and money. Some how the project is not clicking up in spite having great merits.
In spite of high tangible value involved I am suffering from financial and mental stresses. I am much apprehensive of success. Please give me some ideas as to what is the fate of my project and financial problems.
I will be much thankful if you can throw some lights.
Thank you Sam for all the creative inspiration and discussions
about the Mars/Venus conjunction. I like the picture too It think it gets the point across. Regardless of who their identities are in literature. And pictures speak a thousand words.
Mars wants assertion, independence and strength, while Venus wants beauty, compromise and certainly harmonious connections. Completely opposite energies, like Yin and Yang. Their lessons are really at crossed paths.
Now with the two Mars and Venus are joined together, there has been a lot surrendering of independence and assertion from Mars to be in a cooperative partnership with Venus in the sign of Libra. Seeing that Venus is in exalted in Libra, make Venus even stronger. I really like how that sounds!
Mars rules my 3rd and 10 house, while Venus rules the 4th and 9th house. I beginning to see how its all coming together now. There has been an effort coming forth to cooperate but the (3rd) and (10) Mars ruling houses has to take more time to read and intergrade from the higher learning (9 house) and make an effort to build a better foundation ( 4 house ) Venus ruled houses. Then Mars will start to move forward. HEY. I really like how this is really sounding. I hope I made sense here. But I understand it.
Bless you Sam for teaching me all of these lessons. You are some incredible instructor.
My dear husband on the other hand is really having relationship issues seeing that Libra rules his Ascendant and Aries rules his Descendant plus Rahu. I'm sure you can figure this one out.
I am doing my best to hang in there.
Thanks again Sam. Best wishes. Wende
Awesome, Sadasiva! Right on…
Lots of desire for spiritual growth and expansion and a deeper level of commitment to my spiritual organization (Jupiter in Pisces), at the same time having to wait to get clarification as to which next step is divinely guided, and so am kind of waiting and resting, lying low (Sun/Saturn in Virgo).
I'm too tired to respond…
I also have been feeling the need to simplify, but working harder.
I am outsourcing some tasks, so I can do more!
Aaagh!!
