I have my Mars (5th house) and Venus (4th house) conjunct in pisces.
My conjunction (5 degrees apart) isn't as tight as yours, but I did find this artical about Venus conjunct Mars. Never the less, it is one of the most intense conjunctions

"Astrology aspects - Venus conjunct Mars Your relationship with your parents will determine your attitudes towards the opposite sex and marriage for better or worse. Normally, this gives a harmonious blending of active and passive energies and makes you sensitive and loving unless both planets are under severe stress. Drive is generally expressed constructively. This aspect is an asset when it comes to relating to the public, and is said to give luck in financial matters.

This conjunction can vary dramatically from sign to sign, and tends to give you valuable insights into your earliest dealing with the opposite sex - including dealings with your opposite-sex parent, siblings, and peers.

You have very strong emotions. Because of their intensity, you find it hard to treat relationships lightly; everything, even the smallest gesture, has importance to you. This is true in almost all relationships; it's especially true when it comes to sex and romance. If there are problems in your love life, it could be beacuse you're being too pushy or coming on too strong.

This aspect stimulates affections in a way that causes you to want an all-consuming, 'forever' type of relationship; but, funnily enough, it also givesa flirtatious streak that continues even after you've entered into a satisfying relationship. I think that people with this aspect feel that it's especially important to remain desirable - not just to a mate or lover, but to the opposite sex in general.

As the conjunction is a uniting aspect, and Venus and Mars are the male and female principles, respectively, you might think, as I once did, that it's a portent of a lasting marriage. From my studies, I've learned that this isn't the case. While people with this aspect want a lasting relationship very badly, they suffer their fair share of squabbles and separations. There's a difference between this aspect and the square and opposition though, in that there seems to be greater reluctance to make the first break. Jealousy - sometimes justified, sometimes not - on one side or another seems to be the primary cause of discord.

If you have Venus and Mars in the same sign but not conjunct, the foregoing may apply to you. However, you'd be less pushy. "

Can you relate to any of this?

I have venus conj. mars in ares in a grand fire trine and opposed to Pluto so that may color my response but....Im very intense in relationships, very affectionate, very loyal, and prefer my mates as battlemates. I have a fairly driven warrior style of living and conducting myself and honor is numero uno. Sex and love are fairly primordial experiences for me. Ive also always thought of this conj. as whenever one is activated to is the other. I also have my south node close to this conj. in the 11th house so I have always thought of myself as battle ready and have a tendancy to need the space to swing my sword around. If my lover is a liability;ie. needs too much of my attention, can't satnd up for themself and do, or fight back when the going gets tough it bodes ill for the relationship and I start to feel oppressed, as though I am going to have to lug there carcass around or Im living for the both of us. Guys tend to flip for me extremely fast, tell all there dark secrets nd name our children in the first few weeks, once I start to catch up with them they've become extremely intimidated by thier vulnerability. I am hoping to somehow curtail this the next time and take it slower (hard for a venus conj., mars in Ares) because people need a more well built container for such vulnerablity without feeling overwhelmed.
I also tend to be fairly gender flexable and it has taken a long time for me to learn about being a 'girl'. When I meet people thier gender isn't on the top of the list as far as my awareness of them goes. I have very close male freinds and the fact that they have penis' is just an interesting variation on a theme. Perhaps this is due to the closeness of my most traditionally gendered planets?
Anyway, my conjunction is tight too, I don't think they are even separated by a degree. I am curious about this unconcious thing.

I AM A DOUBLE GEMINI (SUN AND ASCENDANT) WITH VENUS AND MARS CONJUNCT CANCER IN THE 2ND HOUSE. HOWEVER, VENUS IS EXACTLY ON THE CUSP OF GEMINI / CANCER AT 00 DEGREES CANCER. (A TRIPLE GEMINI???)
SO AT TIMES I FIND VENUS ATTRIBUTES ON THE TEETH OF THE SEASAW, TEETERING BACK AND FORTH. BUT YET OTHER TIMES, VENUS IS CLEARLY ONE OR THE OTHER!

I don't have venus and mars conjunct but they are both in the 5th house and there is a lot of reference to both planets in other areas of my chart. I Heard that a tight conjunction between these two planets is supposed to make you a sex symbol or highly attractive in some way. Is that true?
