How Venus works through Rohini
Rohini is the star of growth, and Brahma, the creator, is its deity. Tradition says it was the Moon's favourite wife, and it has always been linked with beauty, fertility and attraction. Venus owns Vrishabh, so here it is at home in a sign of food, land and physical pleasure, in a star that gives everything more warmth.
The Moon, the star lord, is an enemy of Venus in the natural table, and the effect is a certain emotional neediness in an otherwise easy placement. You may want to be loved in a very particular way, and you may notice quickly when attention slips.
Love and marriage
Very good, with a warning. You are affectionate and devoted, and you tend to make a home people want to come to. Possessiveness is the problem. A partner's friend or a new job may feel like a threat. Saying that plainly tends to work better than testing someone.
Art and taste
Very good. Music, painting, fashion, perfume, food and interiors all come easily, and you may be able to make a living from one of them. A good sense of colour and proportion seems to arrive without training. Training still pays, because ease can keep you from finishing anything hard.
Money and comfort
Good. Earnings often come through beauty, food, land or luxury goods, and you are likely to enjoy spending them. Weight, sugar and throat are where excess tends to show first. Vrishabh also likes to hold on, so you may be good at saving when you want to be.
In the dasha of Venus
Venus’s mahadasha lasts 20 years. The Moon's stars make these 20 years emotional and domestic. Family, women, food and home take much of the attention. Love is strong and can be clinging.
In a woman's and a man's chart
Venus is the karaka of the wife in a man's chart, so this placement is a classic promise of an attractive, home-loving spouse there. In a woman's chart, it speaks more of her own charm, taste and comfort, with Jupiter and Mars read for the husband. In either, the 7th house and its lord decide what actually happens in a marriage.

When Venus passes through Rohini
Venus crosses Rohini about once a year, usually for around eleven days. Its next passage is from 12 to 23 June 2027, and in 2028, because Venus turns retrograde nearby, it passes through twice: from 9 to 30 April and from 21 May to 15 June.
These are pleasant weeks for courtship, buying something beautiful and family occasions. Venus is favourable by transit from most Moon signs, and only the 6th, 7th and 10th from the Moon count against it.
