How the Venus sign relates to your Sun sign

Venus usually stays in a sign for about 3 to 4 weeks; in a retrograde year (about every 18 months) it can stay in one sign for about 4 months. Venus is never more than about 47° from the Sun, so your Venus sign is your Sun sign or one of the two signs on either side.

Each sign page lists every period Venus spent in that sign from 1940 to 2030, with ingress times. If your birth date falls inside a period, that is your Venus sign. If you were born on a changeover day, enter your birth time in the calculator above.

FAQ

How do I find my Venus sign?

You only need your birth date. The free calculator on this page finds which sign Venus was in on that day. If Venus changed sign on your birthday, add your birth time to settle it. Each sign page also lists Venus's dates from 1940 to 2030.

What does the Venus sign mean?

In Western astrology the Venus sign describes love, taste, values and how you relate to people. It is read as a separate layer from the Sun sign (will and direction) and the Moon sign (feelings).

Can my Venus sign differ from my Sun sign?

Venus usually stays in a sign for about 3 to 4 weeks; in a retrograde year (about every 18 months) it can stay in one sign for about 4 months. Venus is never more than about 47° from the Sun, so your Venus sign is your Sun sign or one of the two signs on either side.

Do I need my birth time?

Usually not. Only when Venus changes sign during your birthday does the calculator show both signs.
