♀ Venus in Virgo
Venus in Virgo means the venus stood in Virgo at the moment you were born. Venus meets virgo: attraction and values — what you find beautiful and how you love. It moves through a sign in about 30.3 days, which is short enough for the placement to be personal.

Venus governs attraction and values — what you find beautiful and how you love. In Virgo, that function takes on precision, usefulness and noticing what is off — a Mutable Earth expression ruled by Mercury.
Where it strains
Applies the same scrutiny to itself until nothing is ever finished well enough.
Reading a placement properly
Venus in Virgo describes a function in a style. It says nothing yet about where that plays out — for that you need the house, and the house needs a birth time. A placement read without its house is half a sentence.
