Venus in Esoteric Astrology

Ray: Ray 5
Esoteric (Soul) Ruler of: Gemini

Venus at the Personality Level

Venus governs love, beauty, and what a person values -- attraction, relationship, and the aesthetic sense in its everyday form.

Venus at the Soul Level

Esoterically Venus is the emerging love principle working through the mind -- oriented toward right human relations and the resolution of polarities rather than simple personal attraction.

Venus at the Hierarchical Level

Hierarchically Venus draws the soul into form through beauty and desire, functioning as one of the great mediating forces between spirit and matter.
