Solid ground - Venus in Earth signs

Extreme - More Than Words
Colocado por manon42 on Dailymotion.com

I'm posting this video for various reasons.

#1 - it's very easy on the eyes (and not bad on the ears). I'm glad Nuno Bettencourt wasn't my type in my teenage years because this could have been dangerous. These days I don't have a type and that's very enjoyable.

#2 - Even though these two aren't included in my "study", I noticed the guitarist Nuno has Venus in Virgo while Gary, the vocalist, has Venus in Gemini. From what I gather this song was written by both but it sounds very odd to me that someone with Venus in Gemini would say they want "more than words", I'm thinking the opposite would be more appropriate. So perhaps Nuno came up with the idea, or perhaps Gary has a very unconscious Venus in his life (it happens).

#3 - Anyhow, More Than Words (and the need for a more concrete expression of love) it's an excellent motto for Venus in Earth signs which I will analyse further on. I'm going to try to look into what Venus in Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn has to offer, which is, in many ways, contrary to what we observed on Venus in Fire signs.

Venus in Earth actually likes [Edit: substitute 'likes' with 'isn't allergic to', I stand corrected Kimananda] commitments (!) and doesn't jump into a relationship at the blink of an eye. These people appreciate things that are solid, palpable and built to last, so you can forget all those Fiery castles in the air, the what-ifs and the dramatic, silky, almost-perfect plumes of Fiery Venus.

Venus in Earth relationships are for real. They exist and they are palpable and in order for this to happen you need to be there, right there, don't run away and travel to find yourself, Venus-in-Sagittarius-person! It doesn't work like that.

If you love Venus in Earth you need to show her/him. We're not necessarily talking about a Ferrari and a diamond ring, more like gestures that reflect your commitment, your willingness to work for this relationship and to be reliable.

In return they are there for you. Their physical presence is proof enough of their commitment, so don't ask for more. If they decided to break their routines to be with you, take it as a compliment and expect a faithful companion.

Earth doesn't like change, it likes comfort and can become very accustomed to the situations they are comfortable with. Which to some people may mean boring, but if you're involved with a Venus in Earth you probably rank stability high in your priorities, or so you should ;)

Being the astrological element more connected with the physical reality and since Venus is the planet of love, the logical conclusion indicates Venus in Earth signs to be especially good lovers. Earth types are usually more comfortable in their own bodies and this is naturally reflected in the physical expression of love. This is also why Venus is frequently captured looking in the mirror. The signs ruled by this planet (Taurus and Libra) enjoy looking their best at all times.
