On 19th September, Venus enters the sign of Virgo which brings the vibes of our zodiac’s practical can-do genius into our love lives for three weeks or so. If there are things you need to fix, then fix ‘em. If there are relationships which have faded or drifted, then do tangible, in-person, real-world things (bring flowers, write a letter, take a homemade gift or treat etc) to show your affection.
If there are things about yourself that you’ve recriminated yourself for, then take a time out to process, reflect, understand, and find a new way forward on it. Stop beating yourself up. If there are attractions you’re hovering around admitting to, then do something pro-active to test the vibe i.e. smile, introduce yourself, flirt a little, measure the response in real terms.
In short, it’s time to get practical and pro-active about repairing, upgrading, improving, and glowing up your love life. Virgo does this kinda’ thing in their sleep, so can you right now!
Let this tarot reading guide you to where you need to focus in your love life…
Aries
Two of Coins
You are a person with big appetites, you need a lot of action and activity going on to keep you occupied, entertained, and enthralled- even in love. Boredom is the enemy. That’s the feeling that undermines even the best thing!
So, bring variety, excitement, new news, and adventure into your love life this Venus in Virgo season. Introduce a little bit of everything. Dates, trips, staying in movie nights, walks in nature, grand gestures, breakfasts in bed, family or friend gatherings… fill the calendar with spicy variety and feel the vibes lift. This is where you thrive and can give of your best to your partner.
Taurus
Knight of Swords
There’s some repair work to be done in your closest relationship, notably standing up for yourself and being heard, understood, and heeded. Sometimes you let stuff slide or don’t jump on it in the moment (which is hard because you weren’t expecting whatever happened).
So, ask for a review. Share the last few things that have unsettled you and explain why you don’t react in the moment but still need to express this stuff. Make sure you’re understood. Give them time to absorb. And then change the dynamic, be a bit different, do something immediately that re-establishes YOUR needs or desires. Balance the scales.
Gemini
Queen of Cups
Virgo is ruled by Mercury, like yourself, so Venus in Virgo is a bit of a second home for your love life. You’re always busy doing practical, helpful, thoughtful things for those you love anyway and you’re always talking about you like, don’t like, want more of etc… In fact, most Gemini partners come to fear for the future only when a Gemini goes quiet!
The Queen of Cups shows this will be a blissful phase. Everything falls into place. The bond you longed to build is built. The attraction you wanted reciprocated is very much. The gesture or proposal or commitment you hoped for comes through.
A big part of this is simply looking after your self care and esteem well, turning that kind focus on your own heart and soul and being your own BFF. It shows others how you want to be treated. Be led by your best hopes and your love life WILL deliver.
Cancer
Ace of Swords
Virgo is ruled by Mercury which is the planet of communication and the Ace of Swords emphasises that you need to be really REALLY honest with someone this Venus in Virgo season.
Express yourself fully and deeply. Step back and listen well to their response (expect to be challenged or met with some rebuttal). Process the pushback and then respond calmly. Don’t back down but don’t escalate to battle status… keep this calm, keep this flowing, keep this open.
What you will come to is a new, improved understanding of each other and a level of trust and connection you hadn’t achieved before. A hard conversation, well handled, can clear the air, build rapport, and bring you closer together. Don’t circle the issue. Get to it.
Leo
Three of Coins
Venus moves from your sign into Virgo, the next one along, and with this shift comes a new queue of secret admirers and crushes! Every Venus transit renews them! Leos always attract attention, it’s part and parcel of your charisma. There might be someone very special amongst this new crowd though, maybe the quietest one (possibly an Earth sign- Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo).
If you’re attached then this card prompts you to shower your partner with compliments and affection. Tell them why you love them and how much. Tell them your happiest memories together so far. Treat them to something you know they love. What you give, will be returned. Give and receive and feel the love!
Virgo
Page of Cups
Venus is sitting pretty in your sign which always helps things go your way, so now is a great moment to say whatever is on your mind about your love life, or make a change you long to enjoy, or ask the person you like out for a coffee.Play a bold hand.
The vibes for you are playful, affectionate, friendly, and almost child-like, in that you’ll have most fun with your beau when you do silly, fun stuff together. I am thinking camping, sitting on the back row of the movies, theme parking, trips to the seaside, milkshakes (vs coffee), spooky film marathons. Create the kind of date experiences a more childlike version of you both would have loved, and watch the fun-o-meter creep up! Ans when you’re having a good time, the love and affection flows even faster and easier!
Libra
Justice
Justice is your sign’s tarot card and in the Venus in Virgo season means that something which was wrong, unfair, or untrue will be righted. The scales will tip back in your favour. Whatever was done or said that hurt you… there will be an apology, a retraction, or a revelation that puts everyone straight about what REALLY happened.
So, expect love life wrongs to be righted. And expect to feel very good about that. Once the past is off your plate, you should look to the future. Be magnanimous in your victory, and let Karma take care of the wrong-doers. If you’re single, then a fellow Libra might catch your eye and say just the right thing to open your heart to a cosmic twin flame connection. Ever dated your own sign? Maybe now’s the time…
Scorpio
Nine of Cups
Venus in Virgo is a surprisingly wonderful, magical transit for you which puts meat on the bones of your wildest romantic fantasy and actually shows you (so, follow the signs…) the ways and means to manifest a genuine wish.
What is your ideal vision of love? Imagine it, breathe life into it, believe in it, and take overt steps towards it.
The number 9 might prove meaningful, or perhaps play the part of an omen or nudge.
Look out for opportunities that mirror your vision in some way and lean in, be present, explore, ask questions. The Universe is conspiring to make your romantic dreams come true.
Sagittarius
King of Coins
The King of Coins is the literal king of practicality and realistic, pro-active, proven tactics to get what you want. So play to this vibe. Do the things you know bring you desired success in your love life- be that an outfit that always attracts the right attention, a gesture that makes your partner smile, or a act that lifts your own spirits and confidence.
Do something positive that you know does the trick, no matter how quirky or off-the-beaten-track it is! You are ruled by Jupiter, it makes you lucky, and when you play a bold hand, Lady Fortune always answers. Do something pro-active that will give your love life a booster.
Capricorn
Nine of Coins
Commitment and long-term relationships are the heartland of the Capricorn nature. You can play the field and have flings, but it’s not where your true desire lies. You like to BUILD.
The Nine of Coins asks you to assess your love life this practical Venus in Virgo season for how robust and sustainable it’s likely to be in the long term.
Are you with, or pursuing, the right person?
Have you created the right environment for your love to develop and deepen?
Are you aligned on the same goal here?
Are you planning for the future?
Take a time out and think about what adjustments or conversations need to be had here. You can make very positive in-roads if you take a long-term view.
Aquarius
Strength
Venus in Virgo wants you to look back at your love life and extract the life lessons, values, and wisdom that are available now that emotions have died down and any wounds have healed over.
You have come a long way. Learned a great deal. Endured and survived and trusted and loved.
What have you learned?
What can you take forward as a future ideal or even deal breaker?
Strength shows that there are hidden gems here. Blessings, silver linings, and wisdoms that will make you smile and feel good. And, bonus, a sexy, high energy Leo (your sister sign and ‘opposite attract’ vibe) could be on the cards too!
Pisces
Two of Swords
Virgo is your opposite sign and kinda’ pulls you towards realities you’d rather avoid or skirt around, and things you need to tackle or deal with that feel difficult and demanding. Venus in Virgo brings you ALL the gifts and powers you need to get through this stuff. So, look at what needs attention in your love life realm, and head towards it with confidence.
The Two of Swords shows a lot of this is about decision-making. Decisions shape outcomes. Get to a better outcome with new decisions. Make a list of what is unanswered, tested, fading, broken, or missing in your love life… and make a new decision against each point that you can execute in the next 3 weeks.Do this… and miracles may occur!
