Venus in Taurus and Mars in Capricorn in the birth chart

Venus in Taurus and Mars in Capricorn combines two aspects of earthy and nurturing energy in your romantic and sex life.

You are attracted to people who respect your boundaries and treat you with admiration. Yet you’re also drawn to the trappings of success such as wealth and beauty.

You use a slow and steady strategy to entice a love interest who seems to be as grounded and stable as you are. You don’t like drama and take a lowkey approach to love and romance.

Your views on romance and sexuality are both rather traditional. You are overwhelmed by too much emotion and prefer a sensual experience rather than showing vulnerability and sensitivity in romance and in the bedroom.

You need to feel secure and in control and this can be a barrier to letting yourself enjoy pleasure in the bedroom. You may view sex as a chore to be done efficiently so that you can move on to other responsibilities.

Likewise, you are also easily able to go long periods of time abstinent from sex as long as you have physical connection and nurturing relationships that take other forms. Your sexual desires tend to be practical and simple, romantic and sensual.

You aren’t into experimentation and kinky sex is not your forte. You’re also not likely to look for a fast-paced, passionate affair. Instead, you prefer a romance that is filled with sentimentality and elegance.

You want to be courted and to slowly build a life together with a partner. Though you are attracted to beauty, pampering, and dates that offer the best of traditional romance, you also can be highly discerning.

Long before you even end up in the bedroom with a partner, you’re likely to have your radar on high alert, looking for any sign of deception or trouble. You’re not one to easily give second chances.

Your ideal partner needs to be able to match your desire for classic romance while also being honest, direct, attentive, affectionate, but not too smothering.
