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 Gemini, you are most likely to fall in love with someone who stimulates you on an intellectual level and makes you laugh. You also have a tendency to blur the lines between friends and lovers.
In the material world, you tend to crave whatever is new and current, and quickly move on to the next thing. Your self-esteem and the way you feel about your appearance changes regularly. But you tend to be very good at hiding any insecurities under a very social façade.
Venus Transit & Retrograde Through Gemini
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 Gemini, we all tend to be a bit more playful and less serious. You might find yourself falling for someone who isn’t “your type” if they can make you last. However, you could also find yourself getting bored with an existing partner and considering looking elsewhere.
Thankfully, Venus does not retrograde through Gemini often. It last did so in 2020 and is not expected to do so again until 2028. 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 Gemini, expect infidelity to play a role in the breakdown of trust in relationships.
Venus in Gemini Love & Compatibility
When you are born under Venus in Gemini, you are more interested in someone’s heart and mind than what they look like. You will always choose a good conversationalist who makes you laugh over a physically attractive person with little to say.
You will often find that you start to see friends in a different light and that they become lovers. It is also common for lovers to transition to friends, and you can continue to be close to them without problems.
Your biggest challenge in love is that you love the heady “honeymoon” periods of relationships too much, and you can struggle to get through the settling phase. This is when your attention is often caught by someone else, and you can find yourself moving on.
While you would never want to betray or hurt someone, if you have moved on in your heart, you don’t have a problem moving on in the real world. Sometimes, the person that you are leaving behind isn’t quite as up-to-date about where the two of you are.
Venus in Gemini Compatibility
Venus in Gemini is most compatible with Venus in the other air signs, Libra and Aquarius, as you find them to be your intellectual match. But you are probably also drawn to fascinating Venus in Sagittarius, even if relationships tend to be short and intense.
Venus in Gemini Material Values
If you are born under Venus in Gemini, you tend to be fascinated by what is new and popular, and you love to have the “latest” things in your life. But as trends come and go, you can tend to think of these things as disposable.
While this might make you seem superficial to some, it is actually a reflection that you are not materialistic. You know that “things” come and go and that other things matter more in life. For you, accumulating knowledge and experience are the most important things.
If you do collect anything, it is likely to be books. Not that you will have read everything on the shelf. When you go to the bookstore, you tend to come home with ten things, and you often start a book and won’t finish it if it doesn’t hold your interest.
Venus in Gemini Appearance & Self-Esteem
When you are born under Venus in Gemini, the way you feel about your appearance is linked to how you feel about yourself. When you are happy, this shines through, and you feel attractive. When you aren’t feeling great, you tend to feel “dull” in your outward appearance.
That said, if you are feeling great inside, nothing about your physical appearance will bring you down. A bad haircut or spilled coffee won’t take any of the wind out of your sails.
That said, you like to look good and have a tendency to use bright and happy colors because they make you feel good. You also like to try the latest trends, since you are highly experimental.
Venus in Gemini Personality Traits
When you are born with Venus in Gemini, you are a naturally curious person, which feeds an innate creativity. But you often lack the discipline to make ideas a reality. You are a highly sociable person and always feel your best when you are exchanging ideas with others.
Curious
When you are born under Venus in Gemini, you are curious about everything in the world. This is why you love reading, learning, talking, and experiencing. You want to know about everything.
You learn very quickly, and this is a good thing, as you tend to spread yourself thin as you try and learn everything, so you don’t give yourself a lot of time to focus on anything specific. But you are the person that everyone will want on their quiz team.
Social
You tend to feed off the energy of others, so you are happiest when you are surrounded by friends and family or making new acquaintances. You easily get frustrated and can’t start to feel low if you have to spend too much time alone (lockdown was not easy for you).
You believe that ideas and experience should be shared, and so you tend to like to talk about all of the ideas that you have in your head. This can result in a tendency to overshare, but you always do this intelligently rather than vicariously, so no one minds.
Creative
If Venus is in this earth sign, then you tend to have a natural creative flair. You come up with intelligent and unexpected ideas with ease. Your challenge is finding the discipline to turn an idea into reality.
Your impulsive nature makes self-discipline a continuing problem for you, as you rarely have the discipline to stick to something once something else has caught your interest.
