Avoid During Transit Mars Conjunct Venus
- Don’t jump into new relationships just for the excitement. Mars and Venus together can make you feel extra flirty, but it’s easy to rush or choose someone for the thrill, not the real connection.
- Avoid picking fights with your partner. This transit can stir up passions, but that includes anger too! Try not to let little things blow up into big arguments.
- Don’t spend impulsively on beauty or luxury items. The urge to splurge is strong now, so watch your wallet and ask yourself if you really need that fancy new thing.
- Try not to act only on physical attraction. Chemistry is hot, but it might cloud your judgment for now. Don’t ignore red flags just because sparks are flying.
- Avoid risky romantic moves at work or with friends. Mixing romance and established friendships or work connections can get messy fast while Mars is spicing things up.
- Don’t ignore your own needs to please others. You might want to make others happy, but don’t do it at your own expense or go along just to keep the peace.
- Try not to be too pushy or demanding in love or creativity. Mars can make you want things your way right now, but back off a bit if you’re coming on super strong.
- Avoid making big decisions about love or money on a whim. There’s a lot of passion in the air, but it can cloud clear thinking- give yourself some time before saying yes to anything huge.
To Do During Transit Mars Conjunct Venus
- Start a new romance – This is prime time for sparks to fly with someone new or to rekindle the fire in your current relationship.

- Focus on your appearance – Try a new look, get a haircut, or update your wardrobe. You’ll likely feel extra attractive and magnetic.
- Get creative – Mars gives you energy and Venus adds inspiration, so do art, music, dance, or any hobby that helps you express yourself.
- Plan a fun date or adventure – Do something exciting with your partner or friends, like trying a new restaurant, hiking, or even taking a quick trip.
- Take initiative with finances – Venus rules money, so it’s a decent time to chase after things you want or ask for a raise, especially if you’re showing passion for your goals.
- Work on self-love – Treat yourself kindly, do something you love, or give yourself a small luxury to boost your confidence.
- Channel your energy into fitness – Dancing, sports, or even a new workout routine helps burn off any restless energy and makes you feel good about your body.
