The Venus-Mars quincunx shows a repeating scenario where love, desire, self-esteem, and action cannot tune to one another the first time. Venus wants to be accepted, beautiful, loved, and valued. Mars wants to act, achieve, defend its desires, compete, and show strength. In the quincunx, the person may be passionate and attractive, but not immediately understand how to express this without anxiety, comparison, resentment, or inner war.
The aspect is often connected with a feeling of inferiority. The person wants admiration, especially from those they like, but at the same time fears criticism and rejection. They may compensate through outer success, a bright image, sexuality, achievements, and victory over rivals. If Mars is weaker, desire remains inside as a dream: the person fantasizes a lot about love, fame, and recognition, but does not act. If Mars is expressed sharply, they may step over others to prove their value.
