Saturn Square Venus

Saturn represents your responsible side, your limits and what you build through effort; Venus, what you love, what gives you pleasure and the things you value.

The lord of limit and the lady of affection in friction: relating comes hard, and the native feels cold and reserved even with those they love, acutely conscious of themselves as an isolated being whom no one wholly reaches. Hence loneliness and low spirits — but also a sober reappraisal of what they give and receive in relationships, free of the illusions that run even in the best. The risk is the dissatisfaction of one who demands of others (and of themselves) too rigid a standard, and guilt over imagined inadequacies — Saturn overstating itself. It is well not to take these fears seriously: relationships are rarely as bad as they are seen. At times it is better to be alone and reflect, and to return afterward with another eye.
