Masterpost: Love Asteroids

Here are some of the more popular (and less popular) asteroids connected to love, romance, romantic feelings, sex, attraction, etc. The numbers listed next to them are their numbers on astro.com. Some of them are included in my Synastry Readings and Love/Partnership Readings. Enjoy!

Juno (3)

It represents long-term relationships and marriage. The kind of person you want to marry. It shows what you need to have in the relationship in order to commit. It can show legal ties, contracts that bond you together. The relationship with the Juno person in synastry may protect you in some way. Transits may show the timing of marriage (Transit Juno in 5th – commitment in a relationship, Transit Juno in 7/10th may represent marriage). Good sexual connection that lasts. Juno is also willing to make compromise and forgive betrayals. It can show problems with jealousy, especially in square aspects.

Ceres (1)

In general, Ceres is connected to pregnancy and the mother-child relationship. In a romantic relationship, it represents how you fulfill your partner’s needs, how you provide them with nourishment, nurture, how you care for them. It can feel very loving and caring, but at times it may repress the romance and feel overbearing, codependent, overprotective. It is also associated with jealousy and the sense of possession over the other person.

Eros (433)

What turns you on, your sexual drive, how you show your passion and desire for something. How your sexuality or sexual relationship with someone transforms you. Merging together with someone, turning into one - combined with Psyche in synastry it represents yin/yan. In the chart, it can represent your desirability. It can also show sexual objectification. Also connected with creativity, inspiration, creative passions.

Amor (1221)

Soulmate. Ideal love, compassion, nonsexual love. Otherwordly love. The type of love you give to someone without expecting anything in return. Selfless love, can sometimes be sacrificial. There might be deep-rooted attachment. In the natal chart, it can also represent how you deal with rejection.

Psyche (16)

How you can learn to love yourself with the help of another, the path you take that leads you to appreciate your beauty and your love for yourself or another, love that may not feel easy. Romantic obstacles, betrayals, jealousy. Rising like a phoenix after romantic hardships.

Anteros (1943)

Lilith (1181)

Can show any form of repression in ourselves, including sexual or the place in our chart where we have the most power. Boldly expresseed sexuality or fear of expressing sexuality. The wild person inside all of us. It can represent misogyny in men (in many cases, if aspected to Juno - the Madonna-Whore complex). It represents the type of women both men and women may fear. It can show power struggles in relationships, need for control over the other person while maintaining our own independence. It can represent the dark sexuality, attraction to the things we aren’t supposed to have, secret relationships/forbidden affairs.

Vesta (4)

On one side and depending on how it’s aspected, Vesta can represent fear of intimacy, chastity, celibacy, alienation or avoidance of relationships and focus on self. Fear of commitment. On the other side, it can show devotion to a partner or a relationship, making them a priority of one’s life, sacrificing personal wishes for the other person. A true giver. It can also represent practitioners of tantric sex and sexuality as a form of connection to something greater, ritualistic sex.

The meaning of Hera in astrology in similar to that of Juno. It represents the spouse, marriage, but compared to Juno, Hera can be more reactive, more jealous, especially in times of crisis within the relationship. Can represent beauty of a goddess.

The way you conquer romantically, how you seduce. It can be egotistical, amoral. Similarly to Cupido, it can also show seducation without further intention. Focus on physical pleasure but lack of emotional depth. Love and sex as something that satisfy the pride, rather than the heart.

Cupido (763)

Cupido is the asteroid that draws you in to the other person, it represents instant attraction, one that might be highly sexual and one that can be quite vain. It can show enjoying the idea of someone, what they represent on surface or physical level. So infatuation. It also shows how you may initiate love. Blind love, childish love, showing someone love or interest without further intention.

Valentine (447)

True love, romantic love. It may represent sacrifices you make for love, love without conditions. Love that makes you offer to take a bullet for someone.

Heaven on earth:

Cupido settling down in The Garden of Adin

This adorable French yellow gold ring from around 1840 is a true testimony of how jewellery and declarations of love go hand in hand. Cupido, the Roman god of love, is enshrined as a putti in an infinite halo of filigree lemniscates. On both sides of this marquise shaped top, four hearts build a universe where one plus one is one as they assemble into a four leaf clover. Between the shank’s edges, filigree frills flutter as butterflies in a stomach. Clearly, this symbolic ring seales the marriage of love, luck and eternity. Another important detail is that this piece was made to shout out loud this message of affection as the large ringsize implies it was used to wear on gloves for everyone to see. Nowadays, love doesn’t always seem to be this simple, so our advise is: if they don’t make them like they used to, you just buy antiques.

The Awakening of Adonis (1899), by J.W. WaterhouseAdonis was commissioned to the underworld by Zeus,

The Awakening of Adonis (1899), by J.W. Waterhouse

Adonis was commissioned to the underworld by Zeus, but every spring, when the anemones start to flower, he is kissed back to life by his lover Aphrodite. To the right, we see Cupid reviving the glowing torch of life and Waterhouse’s favourite birds, the pigeons also fly into the scene.

Already during his life, the painting was criticized for being too mellow and also the technique does not match Waterhouse’s usual standards.  It may have been rushed to be finished in time for the 1899 summer exhibition of the Royal Academy.  Andrew Lloyd Webber added it to his art collection in 2016.

Psyche Opening the Door into Cupid’s Garden (1904), by J.W. Waterhouse 

One year after “Psyche Opening the Golden Box”, Waterhouse paints Psyche again and he chose to paint the same woman wearing the same clothes.  Here she is shown entering a secret garden – one of the soul and the heart - where she will meet Cupid.  Cupid was given the task to make her fall in love with a monster, but after scratching himself to his own arrow, he immediately falls in love with the beautiful Psyche.  He does however not want her to see his face in daylight so that is why they meet and make love only in the darkness of night.

The story was retold by Apuleius, a Numidian author living in the Roman Empire, but scenes where already illustrated on much older Greek vases.  Many painters have painted Psyche and Cupid naked together in bed, but Waterhouse honours the original meaning by leaving Cupid invisible.  It took him nevertheless four years to sell this painting.

Psyche Opening the Golden Box (1903), by J.W. Waterhouse 

Psyche, the Greek goddess of the soul, was given four impossible tasks by Venus.  Three of them she succeeded in accomplishing, but the last one was not to open a golden box that she was given.  The box was supposed to contain beauty in its purest form.  This seemed by far the easiest task, but of course her curiosity wins and after she had opened the box she falls in a deep sleep, only to be rescued by Cupid.

During the early years of the twentieth century, Waterhouse had trouble selling his paintings.  He had to lower his prices to £300-400 each.  This one was sold to Ernest Moon, the barrister who also bought “The Lady Clare”.
