Venus Conjunct Mars: You're passionate about all you do, especially sex, with an intense love of life. Your strong sex appeal and magnetism makes for an active sex life that you don't always take seriously. If you're evolved, you have the strength, courage and energy needed to tame the animal side of your nature. Whether love or lust is stronger depends on whether Venus (love) or Mars (lust) is stronger. You have such vitality and warmth in your emotional nature, you remain charming even if you're excessively aggressive. You're creative, but how it's expressed depends on the rest of the chart. You're generous, outgoing and good at relating to the public but you need occasional solitude. You're impulsive in spending your and others' money, but must always repay your debts in a timely fashion. You demand much from your loved ones then get angry if they don't meet your expectations. You hate being tied down and need some independence.

Venus Square Mars: You have emotional problems in romance and with the opposite sex: men often offend women with their coarse behavior (but are considered great lovers) and women exasperate men with their emotional temperament. You use or are used by the opposite sex simply for sexual gratification. You may marry early due to sexual attraction and suffer as a result. You need to consciously control your very strong desires and emotions, or you may have trouble with your generative system. You're relationships with your family are not close, happy or satisfying since you're often quarreling, and women may suffer emotionally from a father or a husband. You express your feelings openly but are hurt if others don't respond to you. You're emotionally sensitive but insensitive to others' emotions. You're impulsive, amorous, self-indulgent, hypersensitive, always romantic and often very attractive, but you can be cruel and ruthless if not evolved. You may lack taste and refinement in your social conduct, especially if Mars is stronger than Venus. If Venus is stronger, you're very sensitive and your feelings are hurt by rough, coarse behavior. You're easily disappointed in love and can suffer from jealousy and resentment. You tend to expect too much from others then be disappointed when they invariably fall short. You often criticize others for faults you fail to see in yourself.
