Virgo: What is happening in love today?

Venus and Mars are what the tradition reads a love life from, and the fifth and seventh houses are where it happens. This follows both, for your sign, today.

Venus is in Libra which falls in your second house: money, resources, and priorities.

Mars is in Gemini which falls in your tenth house: career, public direction, and responsibility.

Neither is in one of the houses this reading is about at the moment, which the tradition would read as love not being where the pressure is today. That is a real answer rather than a quiet day being dressed up as an eventful one.

The tradition separates the fifth house from the seventh carefully: the fifth is romance, flirtation and the affair, and the seventh is partnership, commitment and the arrangement. They are frequently doing different things at once.

Where this came from

Read from Venus and Mars and the houses the tradition assigns to love, at their real positions today. The four subject readings differ because they look at different planets, not because four paragraphs were shuffled.

What differs by sign is which area of life each thing falls in, worked out by treating your Sun sign as the first house. That is the technique behind every Sun-sign horoscope ever printed. It is a real one, and it is not the same as a chart cast for your birth time.

Where this falls in your real chart

A solar house is an approximation of a real one. With a birth time the same events land in houses that are actually yours, and often somewhere quite different.
