Venus: Soft Harmony
First, the softening reminds us that before we can fully accept love, or anything really, we must first find a way to accept it from ourselves. And to get there, Venus helps us understand our emotional defenses as well as our physical and energetic ones.
Venus helps us recognize that accepting love, connection, and nourishment from others is as important as giving it. This softening and opening increases our ability to absorb and benefit from the care offered by others, the food we eat, and the beauty of this life.
