Hi
It's an aspect I have difficulty *interpreting* in a natal chart, as one would think mars and venus together would be conflicting energies...
Cheers,

I agree that it is a difficult aspect to put your finger on. It seems to really be dependent upon the sign and house placement , and other aspects to see if either the Mars or Venus are dominant or are well balanced.
I know of 2 girls charts where the Venus 'overpowers' the Mars, by being in Libra, and being trine or conjunct the Moon, thus upping the feminine , and lowering the testosterone. Both of these girls are very 'sexy' and 'girly' and have some magnetic power over males.
However, if the Mars is the dominant planet in a girls chart, by sign/house and/or aspect, then the femininity can be under stress, and there, possibly, comes into play gender identity issues, sexuality issues, and sometimes a feeling of not being as attractive to others.
I have also seen a curious kind of personality aspect to some mars/venus conjunctions in a chart. A few of the people I have seen with them have little interest in 'relationship' issues per se. At first I thought they would want to know a lot about their relationships, and prepared for that in my pre-reading
preparation. But each time, with 3 different clients, I was told that they were not that interested in the relationship aspects, and felt 'content' being single because they felt fulfilled at this point just pursuing their other goals.
I was surprised by that, and I wonder if any other mars/venus conjunctions
feel the same way?
