Venus in Leo places the planet of love, beauty and harmony in the fiery, fixed sign ruled by the Sun — classically an enemy of Venus. Venus shapes how one loves; here it tends toward warm, dramatic and generous affection.

What it tends to bring

Venus is love, art and pleasure; Leo is dignity, warmth and the will to shine. The fire element and the Sun's rulership give Venus's affection radiance, loyalty and flair — the tradition reads someone who loves wholeheartedly and proudly, enjoys grand romantic gestures, is generous and devoted, and thrives on admiration and being adored. Taste is bold, luxurious and theatrical, with a love of glamour and creative expression. The shadow is pride, drama or a need for constant attention.
