I've talked a lot about Venus-Uranus aspects lately. I know this energy well, having had it in multiple sudden, ecstatic relationships, and possessing this link in my natal chart. I live for Uranian energy, which is why I will forever seek out new experiences in friendships and relationships. It is what feeds me, gives life its excitement and is part of my personal soul growth ( learning how to love at a distance; respecting my partners individuality; appreciating the variety of love and relationship styles that can exist and be fulfilling etc).
My first boyfriend was a Cancer and since I have a Cancer Moon that was exactly the familiar energy I needed to help me blossom emotionally as a teen. But after that was a string of Aquarius men, and they will always be a weak spot for me because I have Aquarius on the cusp of my Fifth House. You know the Fifth House - the House of romantic affairs and fun sex as opposed to deep intimacy (8th House). These are the people I have fun with and are as wildly attracted to me as I am to them. I have lots of friends with Aquarius Moons that I have the most fun with and have met a lot of men and women with Aquarius Mars and/or Venus that I have to actively stop myself from falling into a trance around.
But that Cancer Moon .... wants safety, comfort, to eat, be held, someone to wrap her legs around to steal heat in the middle of the night. She isn't always interested in excitement and kinky sex and not hearing from Aquarius man/woman for weeks at a time. She wants to be able to cuddle on demand.
Such is the human psyche and the complexity of natal astrology. All of our wants and desires can be pointing in one direction and yet they ultimately leave us unfulfilled because they don't address other deeper core needs. The lucky stelliums out there who have all their romantic planets in one sign should thank their lucky stars. You are easily pleased. The rest of us have to work a little harder.
