Venus with Rahu (North Node) conjunction in Astrology




Venus with Rahu is a very common conjunction in people's birth charts. Well no one stops planetary movements in the sky. Venus has to join Rahu for some period of time . So what happens when Venus comes with Rahu.. 


For that we need to understand what Venus is?


Venus is the planet of values, happiness, love, relationship, beauty, compromise to get happiness, comforts, and vehicles. Venus also presents sensual pleasure, sex, and creativity. Where Venus is placed in the house of the birth chart the person feels happy related to those things. 


Rahu and Ketu are always on an axis. They are the lunar (Moon) Nodes. Rahu and Ketu play a very big role to evolve our mind because they are a split force inside us which compels us to think about what is right or wrong. They are a confusing force and take a long time to understand anything.


Now what is Rahu? Retu is the North Node of the Moon and planet of desire.. It is the head of the serpent (negative force)  without a body. Rahu is a monster who wants to fulfill worldly desires but is never satisfied. We all die one day. We all are in the process of evolution. But it takes many births to get moksha because it is very difficult to leave desires. Depending on the Rahu’s sign and house placement shows what you want or crave in this life.


Rahu conjunctions with any planet show psychological influences that need to be developed. Rahu and Ketu always shape shifting planets. They behave according to the sign and planet sitting next to them. So what happens when Venus and Rahu come together? 


When Venus and Rahu come together the Venus energy gets amplified. The person is crazy about Venus related things. Venus represents love and relationship and this conjunction makes a person crazy in love and relationship. The person learning a lesson of physical desire. The person shows a huge desire for those things related to love, to look beautiful, wearing exposing clothes, relationships, sensual pleasures, and luxurious items. The person may be fond of eating exotic food, likes beautiful things, wants to have all the happiness and wants all the comforts of the world. Because of their inner desire so strong they make an effort to do all these things and ultimately they get it. The person may like to flirt to get sensual pleasure and have many relationships. But the person is never satisfied with Venus stuff and also couldn't give security in love to another person. Because of this kind of behaviour, people may leave them, and married life can be ruined and converted into divorced. The person suffers due to excessive worldly desire and learns the lesson and at the end the person gets fed up and leaves all worldly things and wants to have some peace in life.. These people can be very good in arts and design. 


Depending on the sign and house placement this conjunction gives different results. This conjunction can give huge amounts of wealth and assets if it occurs in the 2nd and 11th house or Venus making any dhan yoga in the chart. Rahu and Venus together in 7th house give problems in married life. If it is the 9th and 12th house the person may get foreign partner. 


Venus is the significator of a wife in a man chart. If a man has this conjunction he may get a wife who is full of worldly desire. A man might be attracted to foreign women or women who are not of his caste or class.. Rahu conjunction with Venus can make one fearful of losing relationships and this can make the person possessive and suspicious in nature. Rahu’s need to experience different relationships may lead to multiple relationships. This could potentially lead to a deep sense of failure in relationships.


These people need to understand that roaming here and there for sensual gratification is not going to help them. So it is important for them to break the pattern. The greatest problem of the Rahu and Venus conjunction is the lack of trust it generates within themselves. You need to learn to develop trust in your  partner and make life easy.


Rahu and Ketu are the shadow of the Moon they work on the subconscious level. Like the story about churning an ocean of milk. The person needs to churned the consciousness and make the person mature about what the person may lack and progress towards life’s liberation.
