Have you been looking for a bit of fun in life – and, in particular, love? After such a whirlwind of a year, there’s a good chance that most of us are ready for a bright, bubbly break and a little bit of romantic adventure, which is just what Venus has in store for us as it moves into Sagittarius.
Venus is the planet of love and beauty, and it even has a connection to finances and abundance, so it’s particularly cozy in the lucky sign of Sagittarius. While Venus is not Sag’s ruling planet, these two share a similar personality in that they both enjoy social connection, adventure, and luxurious activities and objects.
Venus wants to be surrounded by beauty, while Sagittarius desires a collection of experiences, wandering the world and exploring each crevice. When Venus moves into this sign, it helps us see the beauty in every experience.
Keep reading to find out everything you need to know about Venus in Sagittarius, as well as how to utilize this energy occurring on October 17th, 2024.
What Does Venus in Sagittarius Mean?
Those born with a Venus in Sag placement will already be familiar with the kind of adventurous, romantic spirit that this transit brings into our lives. However, the keyword here is adventure.
While Venus was transiting through Scorpio, we felt a deep desire for intensity and intimacy in our love lives.
Now that the waters of Scorpio have cleared, we make way for the passionate fire that burns within Sagittarius. Sag is ruled by creative, electric Fire, the element of impulsivity, action, and spontaneity.
You see, Sag is not a sign that is on the hunt for stability and a settled life – they want to try new things each day, to taste every flavor on the planet. Meaning that for Sagittarius to settle down, they need a pretty spiritual and soulful connection presented before them.
When Venus is in Sag, it desires a certain sense of freedom and independence. There’s a reason why Sagittarius is symbolized by the archer and centaur of the zodiac – the centaur roams freely, setting its sights on any goal or dream that its bow and arrow comes across.
Sagittarius does not want to be held back from reaching their deepest desires just for the sake of a romantic connection.
And once Sagittarius meets someone with whom they share that spiritual, soulful connection they seek, it’s important that each partner works on maintaining the union’s excitement and adventure, lest Sagittarius get bored and decide to seek greener pastures. This is not to say that Sag, as a sign, is inherently against monogamous relationships, but only to say that the relationships Sag is willing to enter need to be pretty special to be sustainable.
We’ll all be feeling a bit more independent, a bit spicier, and a bit more adventurous than usual during this transit.
If you’re already in a relationship, this will be the best time of the year to make more memories with one another. And if you’re single, this is the time to start having fun with the idea of dating! Begin manifesting that relationship that you’ve always dreamed of.
This is also a fantastic time to enjoy your singlehood and embrace all the freedom and independence that Sagittarius loves so much.
Both Venus and Sagittarius have connections with abundance, meaning this transit isn’t all about romance. This is also an excellent time for manifestation, with expansive Jupiter – the ruling planet of Sag – and luxurious Venus joining hands to shower us with blessings.
So, make sure to take some time for manifestation work, including making lists of the things you want to attract, burning candles, and working with abundant crystals like citrine and green aventurine.
