Venus in Saggittarius 2024 - Your heart is your compass
The Power of Heartfelt Truth: Intuition in the Sign of Sagittarius
Venus is in Sagittarius from October 17 till November 11, 2024.
Venus in Sagittarius teaches us that our Venus values are the loving compass on our Sagittarius life journey.
Venus in the mutable fire sign of Sagittarius encourages us to follow our heart’s truth and intuition – especially when it leads us into new, unknown territories.
Venus in Sagittarius loves her freedom, the exploration of new horizons and perspectives. And she knows that our heart also expands when our mind widens.
Freedom in Relationships: The Space for Personal Growth with Venus in Sagittarius 2024
Venus in Sagittarius loves her freedom, the exploration of new horizons and perspectives. And she knows that our heart also expands when our mind widens.
Venus in freedom-loving Sagittarius reminds us that our relationships and connections should be areas where we feel free and can expand.
And Venus in Sagittarius also knows that love sometimes means speaking uncomfortable truths...
Venus in Sagittarius embodies tension:
Love of truth and honesty can be misunderstood and met with rejection.
Truth and authenticity can lead to conflicts and “separations.”
The need for freedom can clash with the need for connection.
Transformative Energies: Venus in Sagittarius during Scorpio Season
It’s exciting and, in my opinion, expansive that Venus is in Sagittarius during the first half of the transformative, deep Scorpio season. And of course, before Venus entered Sagittarius on October 17, she was in Scorpio herself…
Perhaps over the past few weeks, you’ve become more aware of what you deeply and longingly desire (in your relationships).
Perhaps you’ve reached a new, more intense level of self-worth and/or felt where feelings of unworthiness are still holding you back.
Maybe you’ve released old karmic bonds and feel freer and more self-determined.
Now, with Venus in Sagittarius, you may find the fiery courage to free yourself (even more) from old entanglements and allow yourself expansion!
What would you do and say if you were free and committed to no one? Where does your path lead you then…?
Courage for Freedom: Leaving Old Entanglements Behind
The transit of Venus through Sagittarius indicates that it’s time to be honest with yourself and others.
What are your values, and what is really important to you?
What now feels true and authentic to you?
In which relationships do you fear being rejected if you speak your truth?
What does freedom mean to you? In which relationships (to people, but also your projects) do you feel trapped and unfree?
Are there things you do to meet self-expectations, even though they confine you and bring you no expansion?
With Venus in Sagittarius, you’re allowed to be brave AND loving.
If we blurt out our truth and opinion too harshly, we can hurt people. The shadow of Sagittarius is insensitive honesty and the mistaken belief that one's own truth is the only right one…

The Role of Jupiter as the ruler of Sagittarius: Curiosity, Openness and Dialogue
The ruling planet of Venus in Sagittarius is Jupiter, who is currently retrograde in curious, open-minded Gemini, and Venus will form an opposition to him on November 3.
Sometimes it’s important to find accepting, kind words (Gemini) for one’s own worldviews (Sagittarius), so that a dialogue and not a discourse arises.
BUT…
Sometimes love also means speaking uncomfortable truths. Sometimes the greatest (love-)service we can give to our fellow humans is saying something that wakes them up.
Even if we choose loving words – the (Sagittarius-)truth is, we can always trigger and hurt people, even if we don’t intend to. Because each of us has their personal stories, traumas, and wounds, right?
Handling Conflicts Honestly: Creating Space for Growth with Venus in Sagittarius 2024
With Venus in Sagittarius, we can learn to deal with our wounds honestly and repair relationship conflicts truthfully.
When your counterpart honestly tells you what hurt them, you can broaden your perspective and apologize if necessary. When you yourself feel hurt and triggered, you can honestly tell your counterpart and give them the opportunity for growth and new insights…
Self-Love at the Venus Gate in November 2024: Connecting with your Heart
Especially during the Venus Gate on November 5, which is connected to the heart chakra, you may lovingly turn to yourself:
Even if people turn away from you or you get into conflicts, you are loved. Not everyone is for you. You are not for everyone. Your “task” is to listen to your heart’s truth and follow it – because your heart is the connection to divine love, which transcends earthly love and lovingly guides you.
Use this time with Venus in Sagittarius to repeatedly connect with your heart’s truth, use your values as a compass, and see the light on the horizon… especially when you’re at risk of losing yourself in Scorpionic depths.
Can you see where you are already loved and appreciated?
Can you bravely speak your truth and trust that it ultimately serves love?
Can you open your heart and let the divine light flow in?
Can you feel that your heart is guiding you?
