Sun square Venus: meaning in the birth chart
No birth chart shows a Sun square Venus: a 90-degree separation is out of reach for the planet of love, which never leaves the Sun’s neighborhood.
The Sun-Venus square doesn’t exist in natal astrology, and that’s good news for your emotional life: your identity and your capacity to love never know the tension of a challenging aspect. Venus orbits inside Earth’s orbit and, seen from here, never strays more than 48 degrees from the Sun, far short of the 90 degrees a square would require. Your values, your tastes and your way of attracting people therefore always walk close beside your solar self. To understand how they interact, read the page on the Sun conjunct Venus, the only major aspect between these two bodies, and look closely at the sign and house of your Venus, which reveal the style of your charm and the areas of life where it shines best.
