Sun square Venus
Published November 27, 2017 · Updated September 25, 2025 · by dxpnet Astrology Team
The Sun square Venus aspect is often associated with challenges in self-worth, relationships, and personal desires. Many astrologers believe this aspect creates tension between self-expression and the need for love, making individuals prone to seeking validation or struggling with relationship dynamics. However, because squares push for growth, some suggest that this aspect can also lead to deeper self-acceptance and the ability to build stronger relationships.
In a birth chart, this aspect is commonly linked to fluctuating confidence in relationships and social interactions. Some believe these individuals may crave attention and approval but struggle with feeling fully appreciated. Their greatest growth comes from developing a strong sense of self-worth independent of external validation.
When the Sun and Venus form a square in the sky, it is thought to be a time of reevaluating personal relationships and values. Many astrologers suggest this is a great period for addressing emotional imbalances and strengthening self-love, though some caution against seeking affection from the wrong places or overindulging in temporary pleasures.
Sun is currently at 16° in the zodiac sign of Sagittarius and Venus is currently at 9° in the sign of Sagittarius.
