CELESTIAL LOVE GUIDE

LOVE LANGUAGES AND VENUS SIGNS ALIGNED

by: Mariamely Leoni

I recently had the pleasure to virtually meet Gary Chapman, the author of the book “The 5 Love Languages.” His book is a relationship guide that helps couples understand and express love in ways that are meaningful to their partners. Chapman, a marriage counselor, identifies five primary ways people give and receive love, which he calls "love languages," and these are: words of affirmation, acts of service, receiving gifts, quality time, and physical touch.

He suggests that understanding and speaking your partner’s love language can significantly enhance your relationship.

And I couldn’t agree more! After I finished that call the idea of merging Dr Chapman’s theory with astrology popped into my head for this month’s MHC issue.

In astrology, your love language is defined by the position of Venus in your natal chart. Venus, the planet of love and beauty, guides how we show affection and what makes us feel loved. To find out the position of Venus in your natal chart, you can use free online astrology tools or consult an astrologer with your date, time, and place of birth. Whether you’re a needy Aries Venus who craves lots of reassurance or a grounded Taurus Venus who appreciates the finer things, knowing your Venus sign can add a whole new layer of cosmic insight to your love life.

So, ready to discover if the stars have been guiding your heart all along? Let’s dive into how Dr. Chapman’s love languages merge with the position of Venus in your natal chart, and find out how the universe helps you express your love in the most celestial way possible!
