Venus in Aquarius
Venus in Aquarius loves as a friend first. Attraction is to originality, independence and shared ideals; the relationship must leave both people free. Affection is loyal, cool and uncomfortable with drama. Taste is unconventional. The work is to be personal — to let one person matter more than the principle, and to stay when it gets close.
In plain words
Venus stands for what you love and enjoy. In Aquarius, that works in an Aquarius way: independent, principled and a little detached. You do it your own way and care about the bigger group.
