When you talk about energies and love restrictions, what do you mean? I think growing up, I scared men away because I was so bent on the happily-ever-after. Am I going along the right lines?

That's exactly what I meant. While marriage does create a structure to relationships, it also creates certain restrictions. There is an understanding that each person is somehow "bound" to the other and that neither person is "allowed" to look for other relationships. People with a challenging Saturn-Venus may want to have this sort of "relationship restriction" in ALL their relationships, not only those that end in marriage. Or they may, as in your case, ONLY want to be married and not be interested in any other type of relationship.

Agreeing,

...how Im to interpret my square between these 2 since it combines with a Venus/Pluto square [Saturn being conj Pluto in the chart]. The sq to Pluto is stronger [closer in orb w/Venus applying to Pluto, whereas the sq to saturn is a separating aspect]...

Since you addressed this directly to Happy Dragon, I waited for Happy to answer the question. But if you want another opinion...

First of all, I ignore "applying" and "separating" in birth charts because the birth chart is a NON-moving chart. The birth chart doesn't change at ALL, EVER. So, to me, referring to planets "moving towards each other" (applying) or "moving away from each other" (separating) in a chart that has NO movement makes NO sense.

So, instead, we look at the aspects and the "keywords" (more about keywords in Step 5 in the link at the bottom). You have:

Saturn conjunct Pluto square Venus

which is

Saturn (duty, also structure, restriction) conjunct (energy is combined with) Pluto (transformation, also control) square (energy needs to be combined with) Venus (relationships)

which could indicate you have both a need for structure and control in relationships, which could mean relationship restrictions or being controlled in relationships...or in you structuring your relationships and taking control of relationships...depending on whether you are used by or are using the energy.

Explaining,

Tim

I appreciate you going to the trouble of typing all that out. I'm going to get a copy of the book, I think, so I can have it on hand to read whenever I want.

Strangely my creativity and expression comes easily beacuse of the venus. But I worry about having enough money and have no confidence in large groups which is surely the saturn.
