Venus opposite Mars natal creates an intense emotional life resulting in equally fierce relationships. When you love someone, you express your strong feelings through deeply passionate and sometimes dramatic displays of affection. Although this is normal for you and a sign of how much you love someone, the other person may think you are coming on too strong and feel threatened.

You are best suited to a vibrant partner who is not too submissive, someone who matches your intense passions. You will probably still experience a stormy relationship even with such a partner. On the positive side, you calm down as quickly as you let off steam. The direct way you show affection can become an asset because you put as much intensity into making up as you do into escalating any little irritations.

The intense internal conflict between love and hate can result in a distinct creative style expressed in sports, entertainment, art, music, and dance.
