Fashion is a big part of our day-to-day lives. We dress in a particular way to show others who we are or to make a good impression, but sometimes finding our footing in the fashion world can be seriously stressful! Trends are constantly changing. What’s in? What’s out? How do we keep up? And more importantly, how do we discover our personal style amidst the ever-changing fashion climate? What if I told you it’s easier than you think and you don’t have to do a lot of research to find the answers.
Aesthetics & Astrology
Cue your birth chart! Your birth chart is where you ask questions when you want to know something about yourself. And it just so happens that your Venus placement can help define your true aesthetic. So quit saving potential Pinterest outfits because I’m about to break down your personal style according to your Venus sign.
Venus & You
Venus is the planet of love, ruled by both Taurus and Libra. Venus eludes feminine energy, romance and aesthetic. When you’re looking for a potential partner, knowing your Venus sign is super beneficial because often those with compatible Venus signs (for example a Pisces and Scorpio Venus) make great partners.
Aside from love, you can also use your Venus sign to enhance your style, feel more confident and attract others. You can find your Venus sign in your birth chart, represented by this symbol ♀.
