Venus Transit in Cancer

A Venus transit in Cancer places Shukra in Karka, the Moon's sign. Venus's enemies are the Sun and the Moon, so this is an enemy sign, and that fact would be false for Venus in Tula, Venus's own air sign, or for Venus in Meena, its exaltation. It is also not debilitation. Venus falls only in Kanya. People who feel a Cancer transit as 'bad for love' are half-remembering the Moon's enmity and then applying it to all twelve rashis. The transit lasts as long as Venus takes to cross Karka, which is not a fixed number of days you can lift from an old article, because Venus retrogrades and its speed changes. The principle does not need this year's ingress date. The house Karka occupies in the birth chart is the department the transit touches.

For Makara lagna, Karka is the 7th, so Venus crossing Cancer is Venus crossing the marriage house. For Karka lagna the same transit is on the lagna, and Venus there rules the 4th and the 11th, home and gains, not the 7th. The 7th for Cancer lagna is Makara, Saturn's sign. A forecast that gives every sign a love result from Venus in Cancer has given the marriage transit to eleven lagnas that are having a different house activated. Venus is the wife karaka in a man's chart, so its passage over the natal 7th is worth noting when a relationship dasha is already on. Jupiter remains the husband karaka in a woman's chart. A Venus transit does not replace Jupiter's period. D9 does not change because Venus is visiting Cancer in the sky.

In the Moon's sign, Venus is less comfortable in matters of mind and home than it is in its own signs. A transit over the natal 4th can stir comfort and the mother. A transit over the natal 2nd can stir spending on pleasure. These are house statements. They become biography only if the Vimshottari lord of the moment is Venus or the lord of that house. Venus mahadasha is 20 years. A few weeks of transit inside it can colour a season. The same weeks inside a Saturn mahadasha may pass as a mood. No stone should be bought for a transit. Diamond is Venus's gem, considered for a natal Venus that needs support, not for a sky passage through Cancer. If your lagna is unknown, you do not know which house is being crossed, and the impact on 'each zodiac sign' cannot be honestly listed.
