Venus Conjunct Mars...

starts on May 21 (using a 1 degree orb), is exact on May 23 at 6.25pm in Kilmore, leaves on May 25.  Both at 9 degrees and 1 minutes of Taurus.

Even though Venus and Mars are technically only conjunct for a few days, they are travelling through the same sign for the next couple of weeks, making this an important time for our desires and wants to be united.

Mars is an assertive energy that is related to our ego, while Venus is a passive energy related to our desires... a conjunction represents the end of an old way of doing things and the beginning of a new way, a new project, idea, etc.  Every couple of years we get this conjunction of the two planets that represents the masculine (Mars) and feminine (Venus) which gives us all a chance for a fresh start: in this case Venus is in a better position because it likes being in Taurus, while Mars isn't so happy about the situation!

Symbolically this can mean that the people and situations represented by Venus in your birth chart will be in a stronger position than the Mars ones that are ending/starting around this time in your life.  For example, I have Taurus Rising so I am likely to be in a better position than a competitor (Mars rules my Scorpio 7th house cusp).

If you have personal planets and/or points in Taurus then you may feel this opportunity for a fresh start more strongly than others.
