Being practical and physical to the core, Taurus would want loyalty in love, and would always prefer a long lasting relationship, but also one that is filled with sensual desires, passion, creation, and realize that morals and obligation have nothing to do with love and passion or even creation. As a Taurus, you would always love to be the center of attraction, and gain the appreciation from your close circle, apart from gaining the interest of the opposite sex.

The Nakshatras ruled by Venus, as per Vedic Astrology

Venus rules over three constellations or Nakshatras, namely, the Bharani, the Purva Phalguni, and the Purva Ashadha. These three Nakshatras give different results in different zodiac signs, but even then, the influence of Venus is evident.

If your zodiac sign is Aries, be it your moon sign or sun sign, then the essence of Venus would be given to you through this Bharani Nakshatra. Known as the ‘bearer’, the symbol for this Nakshatra is the ‘Yoni’, and thus it would mean that the nurturing qualities and reproducing life would be given to an Aries native through this Nakshatra. You will be the pain bearer in a relationship, and would always support, love, and nurture your partner even when you go through rough patches.

In the case of the Purva Phalguni Nakshatra, Venus will give its essence through it, for the zodiac sign Leo. Known as the ‘first reddish one’ , this would make a Leo really lucky in love relationships, and shower the native with an abundance of love, passion, romance, and shows that you would be generous towards your partner in love. Again, for the Purva Ashadha Nakshatra, the energy of this constellation would give the power of the creative Venus to a Sagittarius. Known as the ‘invincible one’, you will get the power of showing your creative side of Venus, and will therefore love small yet peculiar things done to show creativity in love.

Keep your innate desires in control, if your Horoscope has the conjunction of Venus and Rahu.

When Venus and Rahu are in conjunction in your Horoscope, take care to keep your desires in check, as Rahu inspires you to go to lengths without any limits and thus poses problems for you. Rahu would push you to explore a variety of options and not stop you from doing things that might disturb your normal life, especially when it comes to love and relationships. One might desire to be sexually active at all times, and would not even realize if he/she were just being used for someone’s physical desires. Since Rahu likes to stretch things out of their natural proportion, and does not get satisfied easily, owing to which, it would push the native to be involved in relationships very soon without thinking too much. This is because the desire to be in love and have a relationship when Venus is there in your Horoscope, is amplified manifolds by the planet of obsession, Rahu. So take care to keep your sensuous desires in check, and control your magnetic desires so that you do not have to face problems and can settle down peacefully in life with your soulmate.
