Venus is known as the planet of love, and its position in your natal chart can tell you a lot about your approach to love and relationships. It also relates to how you value things in the material world, and how you feel about your appearance.
If you are born under Venus in Aquarius, you take an unconventional approach to love. This can apply both to the partners that you choose for yourself and how you decide to manage your relationships. Maintaining your independence is always highly important.
You are not materialistic, and may even be rebelliously un-materialistic, actively rejecting the things that others place importance on. You are confident with the way you look, but believe that true attractiveness lies in the head.
Venus Transit & Retrograde Through Aquarius
While the position of Venus in our natal chart affects us on an individual level, Venus’ continual transit through the signs impacts us all as it dictates the kind of “love energy that is in the air”.
When Venus transits through Aquarius, we might find ourselves chaffing under traditional relationship responsibilities such as keeping house and attending family obligations. We all tend to feel the need to throw off these burdens and take a freer and more independent approach to love.
Thankfully, Venus does not retrograde through Aquarius often and will not do so for the next ten years. Considering its disruptive power over the heart, it is good that Venus only retrogrades every 18 months.
Whenever Venus retrogrades, we all tend to misstep when it comes to love. When this is combined with the energy of Aquarius, we often feel shackled by our connections and the need to throw them off and go out into the wilderness on our own.

These are things that you often prefer to work through on your own. A partner that pushes you to share too much can be a source of frustration.

When you are born with Venus in Aquarius, you are a rebel. You think that everything should be questioned and never accept things on face value. You tend to keep your thoughts to yourself and keep your own company, and probably crave a “simpler” time without the incessant pressures of technological life.
Introverted
When you are born under Venus in Aquarius, you are probably introverted. This is not down to shyness, but rather a comfort within yourself and with your own company. You prefer to speak with the most intelligent person in the room, which you usually assume is you.
For you, talking through your thoughts and feelings is not a must. You prefer to mull things over in your own head. You also don’t feel the need to explain yourself or justify yourself to others, so you don’t.
Rebellious
Your family might describe you as a rebel without a cause, as you always take the opposing side just because it is different from everyone else. You are at your most verbose when you are playing devil’s advocate and trying to get someone to question their assumption, even if you think that they are probably right.
This is the root of your rebellion. You just don’t think that people should accept everything that they are told. Instead, they should figure things out for themselves and make up their own minds. You always do.
Favors Simplicity
You probably enjoy modern technology. You might love playing video games or making digital designs. But you probably don’t like a lot of the burdens that come along with it. You don’t like the way that your cell phone makes people think that you are available 24 hours a day, or the idea that you have to share everything about your life on social media.
You probably have a craving for a simple life. Obviously, you don’t want to go back to churning your own cheese. But you do probably think that life was better when we had fewer screens and more space to think for ourselves.
