Femme Power and a Funky Playlist
Venus delights. Venus desires. Venus dances.
For a long time, I’ve resonated with musical artists who share my natal Venus placement and find people often do as well.
How we experience enjoyment. How we feel pleasure. How we are entertained.
It feels natural that Venus would show how we make those connections.
When I was planning to facilitate Venus dance classes, the Pleasure Path, a major part of my creation ritual was the playlists. I found a femme artist who had that natal Venus placement and was planning to highlight their music during class.
I did this for the first class and absolutely loved it, and I’d already started making playlists for all the classes. Despite not continuing this offering as intended, I still wanted to provide a taste of what I was working with to everyone.
This collection of musical art was formally started during Venus in Libra when I knew that the Pleasure Path wasn’t going to continue, and it has concluded during Venus in Pisces when I feel another offering bubbling up from inside.
Now, I present this journey through music and through the Venus signs — along with including multiple musicians from each placement instead of the original one.
Originally I was worried about not showcasing each Venus placement…
That turned into recognition that this playlist was going to be the most massive one I’d ever curated. We’re talking about over 24 hours of music. There’s something for everyone here!
So here we go hotties, let’s get groovy.

I’ve checked the charts for the artists and musicians I’ve listed below. Some have a verified birth time, and some are only the day itself. When it was only the day with no time, I checked to make sure Venus didn’t change signs on that day. If you find any mistakes, then please email me at hello@astrochoreo.com
Enjoy these highlights of lyrics from the first song I chose for each Venus placement, and a list of each artist included as a table of contents for you:
