Well I would think that this aspect would help make the relationship more solid and stable...especially if there are other, more strong Saturn contacts between two people.

Thanks Libra . I'm starting to see that it signifies reliability between two people. I'm just hoping that it will help with the romantic side of things.

It won't. You'll have to count on other aspects for that.

Venus is love & Saturn is restriction. Unless Saturn initiates, every time Venus is expressed, Saturn sabotages. I've seen it in the conjunction and the sextile.

Yikes! Then what happens when a chart shows that each persons Venus trines the others Saturn? Would it balance out or would you have a complete mess? The one thing I have noticed is a sense of "being there" for each other.

i have a double sextile venus to saturn with the guy i am interested in. i am curious about this as well and i'm sort of doubting it always manifests as a express/sabotage dynamic.

liz greene's interpretation is pretty interesting but i've been scolded for bringing it up before since it is a few decades old..

I'm Gemini, so I believe life is about the spread of knowledge. What did Liz say? I won't scold you for passing it on.

In this instance I guess you'd have to look at the condition of Venus in each charts.

i will have to go reread it.. but i think it basically says that saturn is totally smitten with venus (this is just any synastric contact; she doesn't make distinction) and feels awkward yet very enamoured.. which CAN potentially result in jealousies and other unsavory emotions taking over (or attempts to restrict venus).. which is where the difficulty comes in. but she suggests that with a totally open and honest approach, there can be a deeply real and satisfying friendship based on understanding these deeper emotions and the stuff they bring to the surface, etc. and the way she worded it, made it seem like a very significantly rewarding potential, and real and lasting.

i guess it's just that it could be difficult for a lot of people to go that deep or be that honest.

When Saturn makes an “soft” aspect with Venus (and if your other aspects are positive) it can add stability and staying power to the relationship. At least that has been my personal experience. I don’t have a doubt Venus Saturn aspect with my bf, but my Venus is trine his Saturn, and both our Moons are trine each other’s Saturn. It hasn’t made our relationship overly serious or depressing in any way, but we can definitely depend on each other through thick and thin. Things written about Saturn are often VERY negative, but its ability to cement relationships should never be discounted. If you are looking for all play and no work then you could have a problem. If this is a serious relationship, though, or could become one, Saturn will probably help in the long term. My grandparents had a Saturn-Venus square and a Moon-Saturn square. They were happily married for over fifty years and remained in love the whole time. You can never predict how any energy is going to express itself. How does Saturn aspect planets in each person's natal chart – positively or negatively? That also should be taken into account.
