Jyotish. Andrew Mason

beautiful; particularly drawn to fine clothes, exotic scents, foods and wine.

      In matters of health, Venus aids in digestion (and removal) of toxins through the water element (kidneys and bladder) and the ultimate refinement of foods through Sapta Dhatu1 (seven tissues). Venus fortifies the tissues by supporting ojas (immune system). Both Venus and Moon preside over the metabolism of the water element, helping to further reduce (or delay) the loss of vital moisturising secretions and elasticity/suppleness of tissue. Venus is also considered Kāraka of shukra (semen/reproductive fluids) and physical potency (procreation).
