Venus in Ashwini ~ Break out of relationship routine

Venus, the planet of love and art, is in Aries-Ashwini from May 31st to June 13th, 2025, the first nakshatra in the first zodiacal sign.

This transit sees the passing of Venus’s long stay in its exaltation sign of Pisces, going back to January 2025, and you move into a more assertive way of relating. Confusion and mixed messages may also clear up, but make sure you don’t jump into a romantic situation too soon. Ashwini is associated with speed and courage, and its Shakti or special power for Quick Action sees you getting started with a relationship, or reacting to a partner’s bold romantic move.

Venus prefers balance, harmony, and taking your pleasures slowly, but this nakshatra’s symbol of the Horse gives speed and power, where you risk entering a liaison you wouldn’t usually dare. Trust your instincts, when you can size a potential love match quickly, and a heroic streak gives you the courage to attempt a romantic conquest. Venus is also squeezed between the Sun and Saturn through this whole transit, which makes tricky grounds for your impulsive relating style.

You may know what you want from somebody, but it pays to keep diplomatic efforts alive and smooth the ground before you strike. Ashwini is Sattvic and Earthy in nature, which gives you manners and personal charm, and you also show grace under the pressure of an artistic deadline. This asterism is also lorded by the Ashvini Kumaras, the divine physicians, and you may study medicine, wellness, and the healing arts, or your company simply has an enlivening power to make people feel better.
