How it works

Geocentric positions projected onto the ecliptic of date; meetings calculated from Earth–Venus relative heliocentric longitude. Tropical zodiac for meanings. Eight years usually contain five meetings; all in the actual interval are shown. An inferior conjunction is not necessarily a transit across the Sun.

Discover the pattern Venus traces around Earth and explore its meetings with the Sun.

What it is for

Choose a period and explore the shape Venus describes relative to Earth over eight years. Inferior conjunctions mark moments in the cycle, with symbolic reflections on relationships, preferences and what you value.

How to use it

Enter a starting date between 1900 and 2091. Select a meeting from the list to highlight it on the drawing and read its interpretation. The full result keeps the graph and every date.

Reading your result

The drawing represents relative motion, not a physical orbit of Venus around Earth. The pattern nearly repeats but its endpoints do not match exactly. Astronomical dates guarantee no personal events.
