Venus’ Transit of Leo: Look At You
Venus enters Leo on August 26th. Relationships, money and self-esteem issues take centre stage – what you want can become a point of pride or a cry for attention.
Venus in Leo asks you to put your wants first. Do you feel beautiful? Does your relationship make you feel special? What makes you happy should also boost your confidence. Maybe it’s time for you to receive that reward for everything you’ve done. Look at you!
There’s nothing subtle about this transit – it’s about creating something that brings you joy. It’s about being recognized and feeling like you’re the best. Now is not the time to be humble or tone down the colour. Venus in Leo is bold, vibrant and loud.
If you’re not feeling proud or joyful, Venus in Leo can emphasize what’s missing. Rather than looking outside yourself, consider why you may feel less than loved or appreciated. You’ve probably read this so many times that it’s a cliché, but nobody is going to appreciate you if you don’t appreciate yourself. During this transit, you attract by putting yourself first. This is not the same as putting others down. It’s about pure confidence and dignity – you know you deserve the best, and that knowledge radiates outwards.
Healthy Venus in Leo is generous and loving with others, because she knows she’s all that. She attracts praise naturally – there’s more than enough to go around. Distorted Venus in Leo stamps her feet and demands attention, because she’s not proud of who she is and requires a constant stream of reassurance.

- Venus in Cancer square Jupiter in Libra: 19 degrees
Connected to the Venus/Pluto opposition, this square will exaggerate the opposition’s results. If you receive something good, it will be very good. An ugly confrontation or ending will be especially intense.
Jupiter amplifies what Venus wants. The Big Love. The Big Issue that feels so personal. The whole thing will be unbalanced and possibly unfair (Libra) whether the results are happy or not. Perspective will be skewed. If you’re celebrating…congratulations. But don’t try to grab more than you’ve won. If you’re doing the opposite of celebrating, remember that this too shall pass. And this also applies if you’ve won.
August 15th, 2017: Venus in Cancer Opposite Pluto
- Venus in Cancer opposite Pluto Rx in Capricorn: 17 degrees
The opposition is always about you and your relationship to the outside world. Even if there’s not a specific someone, if the transit activates your chart, it will stir up issues of projection, relating or competition. The opposition is also a culmination – you’ll see results, or an ending.
So that sets us up for Venus/Pluto, where love, money or self-esteem based on security needs (Cancer) is intensified and challenged by the ultimate “death” and transformation. Pluto can take away what you thought you needed most. Or, it can introduce a person/goal that you feel you absoltuely must have. Venus in Cancer makes it very personal (you could feel quite vulnerable) and the “other” becomes the key to everything- the humongous loss or the obsessive desire.
Pluto is teaching you through intensity. You were overly dependent on what was taken away (you were trying to control or cling to something). Or, what/who you want out there is a reflection of what you want to develop within yourself. Chances are, you’re projecting your issues onto someone (or they could be projecting onto you).
It all comes back to you. That’s not to say the profound love/lust/success is invalid. Yes, this opposition can bring success, especially when Venus is applying to a square with Jupiter in Libra, exact on August 17th. Sometimes the results equal a transformation for the better. Much depends on what’s led you up to this point – refer back to the November 25th, 2016 Venus/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn to see where it all began.
