Moon Venus soft aspects in synastry - the key to keeping the peace in relationships

Moon and Venus are both feminine, yin planets

The Moon represents our emotional core, our subconscious reactions, what makes us feel safe and nourished and it also symbolizes the archetype of the mature woman (mother and wife). The Moon rules the sign of Cancer. The Crab is preoccupied with domestic matters (family and the home) and the inner emotional life. Interestingly the Moon's exaltation is the Venus ruled sign of Taurus. The stability and slowness of Taurus has a benefic effect on the emotional tides of the Moon.

Venus is the planet of relationships (romantic and platonic), beauty, arts, grace and charm, values like justice and equality, money and resources, pleasure, etc

In comparison to the Moon, which represents natural, raw femininity, Venus, symbolizes a more artificial, socially- constructed kind. Venus rules Libra and Taurus, sharing the principles of Air and Earth signs, meaning a focus on mental and material aesthetics. Venus does not have too much to do with emotions, except regarding its exaltation, which happens in the Water sign of Pisces.

Cancer, the home sign of the Moon, has an interesting position because it sextiles Taurus (Venus's domicile) and trines Pisces (the sign of Venus's exaltation).

After all that I've mentioned above, we conclude that these two planets have a great relationship, indifferent of the aspect that they are forming, easy or difficult. This is demonstrated by the fact that both feel great in each other's home sign. So even the square and opposition have a very positive effect.

In synastry, when these two planets meet in any aspect, we see a display of both people's feminine nature. Any aspect, but especially the soft ones, encourage love, peace, harmony, but also passivity, laziness and stagnation.

Venus Moon contacts are known to annihilate any negative interaction that could result in conflict, rude behavior, like the infamous Mars square Mars or Mars square Pluto aspects. In case you do have a Venus Moon aspect in synastry with someone, remember that for growth to exist in the relationship there must also e some proactive planets interacting.

People who have Venus Moon contacts act as each others safe heaven where they seclude themselves from the problems of the real world . There is always a feeling of coming home when these people get together.
