6° Aries: Venus’s charm put at the service of action

At 6° Aries, Venus takes over from Jupiter: boldness dresses up as seduction, and the charger becomes a bit of a charmer.

6° Aries, from 6°00′ to 6°59′, marks the entry into the term of Venus, which runs to about 11°. It is a clear change of tone inside the first decan: Mars still rules, but the planet of love now watches over the stretch and softens the message. The Gemini dwad adds lightness, conversation, the game of seduction. This degree thus has charm, a quick comeback and a talent for getting what it wants without seeming to.

A Sun at 6° Aries comes across as sunny and sociable, gifted at persuading without crushing. The Moon here seeks a romantic bond that is also complicity, a partner to laugh with. Venus is at home in a degree she governs by term: she seduces with frankness and attaches with ardor. Mars becomes more diplomatic; the Ascendant at 6° Aries gives a pleasant face, a direct elegance, a smile that opens doors before anyone has knocked.

Your lever: don’t let charm dodge the confrontation that’s needed. At this degree, it’s possible to circle a disagreement wittily rather than face it head on, when Aries has just the courage to do so. Use your relational ease to say a hard thing gently, but say it. It is the combination of Mars and Venus, frankness and grace, that makes this degree an excellent negotiator.
