Venus Transiting Scorpio

When Venus transits Vrishchik, it is moving through Scorpio, a sign of Mars. Venus and Mars are neutral to each other, so this is not Venus exalted, which happens in Pisces, and not Venus debilitated, which happens in Virgo.

A transit is not a natal conjunction

Gochar Venus in Scorpio lasts on the order of a month, longer if Venus retrogrades there. Everyone with a chart experiences that sky. The natal question is which house Scorpio is. From a Taurus lagna, Scorpio is the 7th, so transiting Venus crosses the marriage house. From a Cancer lagna, Scorpio is the 5th, so it crosses romance and children. From a Sagittarius lagna, Scorpio is the 12th, so it crosses expense and private life. One newspaper line for all Scorpio Venus transits has erased the twelve possible houses.

Count from the Moon for gochar weather

Classical gochar is often counted from the natal Moon, not only from the lagna. If your Moon is in Aries, Scorpio is the 8th from the Moon, and Venus's transit there is 8th-house weather: other people's money, a bind, a private crisis of comfort. If your Moon is in Taurus, Scorpio is the 7th from the Moon, and the transit touches partnership in the lunar count. Sade Sati uses this same lunar counting for Saturn. Venus is faster and kinder or sharper according to the house, not according to a fear attached to Scorpio's name.

The dasha outranks the month

A Venus transit over the 7th during Venus mahadasha, 20 years, or during the 7th lord's antardasha, can mark a marriage season. The same transit during a 12th-lord bhukti is a month of Venus-colored expense or distance. Do not schedule a wedding from the transit alone. You still need a tithi that is not rikta, a preferred nakshatra, Venus not combust, and a fixed lagna for the hour. This page states no date for the transit, because the next Scorpio passage is an ephemeris fact of its own year.

Frequently asked questions

Is Venus strong in Scorpio?

It is in a neutral's sign, Mars's. Strength by sign would be Pisces, Taurus, or Libra. Weakness by sign would be Virgo. Scorpio is neither.

Which house does the transit hit?

Whichever house Scorpio is from your lagna, and, for gochar, from your Moon. Taurus lagna makes Scorpio the 7th. Cancer lagna makes it the 5th.

Does the transit set the wedding date?

It can support a 7th-lord period. The muhurta still needs tithi, nakshatra, and a fixed lagna. The transit month is not a muhurta by itself.
