Venus/Mars contacts are a potent to find in a synastry chart because they are both planets concerted directly with love and sexuality. Venus holds the feminine archetype as she is how we express love, sensuality, affection, and pleasure. Mars is the masculine archetype as he expressed the ways we are assertive, direct, sexual, physical, and goal oriented. These planets have a natural polarity in the realms of love and sexual energy. When someones Venus makes aspect to someones Mars or vise versa... A lot of fireworks are are created! These aspects create a natural sexual affinity between two people.
Conjunct: Synergy between masculine and feminine, pure expression of that polarity. Best expressed if man is Mars and woman is Venus but still powerful if the roles are reversed as well. Mars's masculine assertive forward-driving sexual nature is received and ignited directly by Venus's beautiful feminine loving nature. Magnetic and erotic, you desire one another intensely because the attraction is incredibly natural and potent. Powerful need for sexual/romantic connection. This is explosive chemistry, you can't ignore this energy, it is intense, lustful, and loving. You want one another bad. This is a binding aspect for it creates insurmountable passion, if negatively aspected elsewhere this will add heat and fire into the mix because that type of passion is hard to let go of therefor it may create more motivation to work through issues, if positively aspected this is an extremely harmonious conjunction that is a major player into the relationship.
Trine: This shows a very easeful connection between Mars and Venus energies, strong sexual compatibility that steadily grows over time. Its not as hot and intense as the conjunction, instead it brings in a very stable and powerful sexual flow between two people. Natural love compatibility, this is an amazing aspect to have in synastry. Venus admires Mar'es strength and assertion, Mars is enthralled with Venus'es loving harmonious nature. A lot of strong mutual appreciation, passion, and lasting attraction is found here, these people will very much enjoy engaging each other romantically and sexually. You will fulfill each others deep desires and through that a powerful sense of love and passion will naturally be felt as the bond strengthens. This aspect can be a major contributor to a long term relationship.
Sextile: This is less of a binding aspect than the trine or conjunction but still a very positive one to have none the less! Here Mars and Venus compliment each others energies, there is a natural affinity towards the romantic and sexual attraction you feel for one another. Tenderness and passion are expressed with ease. You are able to fulfill each others sexual and romantic needs. This is an aspect that can be overpowered if there are a lot of squares in the mix, it adds a great energy to the relationship but it doesn't bind the energies through hell and high waters like the conjunction or trine.
Square: There is undoubtedly a strong attraction here between Venus and Mars, passion, desire, its all there. However this square makes the attraction less balanced. Mars and Venus are kind of aggressors to each other with this square, this results in hot passionate feelings but there can just as easily be anger, jealousy, tension, friction, and possessiveness. The natural flow of Venus and Mars are not quite in tune with each other so there is often misunderstandings. Mars can be too aggressive towards Venus and Venus could too passive or too demanding. Mars and Venus are rough with each others emotions in this square, there is not a ton of gentleness or compassion for one anothers expression of these energies. This isn't the worst aspect to have, its very fiery and hot, but it can cause for a lot of emotional ups and downs in a relationship. They need to learn to be more gentle and receptive with each others feelings.
Opposition: Strong observation and awareness of one anothers Venus/Mars energies. A potent sexual attraction is created through this opposition. Venus and Mars have a mirroring effect on one another, their approaches to love and sensuality are opposite but within that lies room to find harmony and strong romantic/sexual connection through compromise. This connection will either work or it won't work, there is a back and forth between the attraction and sexuality, ups and downs. Mars can be seen as insensitive or aggressive and Venus can be seen as too passive or sensitive. They must learn to balance the give and take in order to achieve harmony, there is a natural affinity to want to express that sexual loving energy towards one another but it will only work through learning how to balance and understand each others energies. They will both need to adjust and rework themselves to meet each others needs. If this work is done it can feel strongly like two halves become one whole that are complimentary to each other... Mutual love, desire, and understanding can be the result. This is a make it or break it aspect in the sense that if you don't find that compromise and balance the connection becomes too volatile and ungrounded to make it last. Awareness, understanding, and compromise are the elements that can make this a really potent binding positive aspect in the synastry.
