Venus (in Virgo) Debilitation ~ Asking the right questions

Venus, planet of love and luxury, is in Virgo from October 9th to November 2nd, 2025.

Virgo is the sign of Venus’s debilitation – neecha – where it has greater trouble expressing itself naturally, in relationships, creativity, and all its signature affairs. This transit finds you highly analytical about your partner, where you can make a relationship overly complex and create tension on both sides. Venus prefers to flow naturally and go with a romantic mood, but you take the Mercury-ruled approach and possibly ask too many questions in the first meeting with somebody. Virgo is the sign of the perfectionist, so while your hypercritical style has good intentions, others may be taken aback and get the wrong idea.

A tricky or enigmatic attitude can simply be a cover for feeling shy, when it is better just to be straightforward. You are fussy about the company you keep and insist on only the best and smartest places, especially as Venus exchanges glances with strict Saturn all through this transit. Up to October 14th, especially, you may target a high-status individual or circle of people, and combine business with pleasure. Make sure there is natural spontaneity in your choice of company, however, as conversation can be difficult and you may feel tested or singled out by a passing remark.

You may also be without a familiar face or somebody you rely on for a short time, and are thrown back on your own company and contacts. Venus is caught between the fiery influences of Mars and Ketu up to October 27th, and you may be around people who need help or are emotionally demanding. Make sure you have energy to give to your social life, and avoid the temptation to make a rash or unconscious social call.
