Whatever house is governed by Venus, those affairs would occupy one’s mind in very prominent way. This planet has been considered to be intimately connected with love and relationships and indeed it signify the outlook and method in which love will be expressed. Those who have this placement seek fierce commitment in their personal relationships, their expression of love is generally very straight and intense. When the fine line is crossed, then obsession with their lovers or else with the idea of love itself happens with them. To say that love becomes a necessity for them and not a luxury won’t be incorrect.
