When exalted Venus is placed in the fifth house in a horoscope, Scorpio rises in the ascendant. Exalted Venus is malefic in the fifth house in many cases though it may turn benefic in some cases. This may happen when Venus is influenced by benefic planets, such as through conjunction and/or aspects. As the number of benefic planets and the strengths of such planets increase, Venus may become more benefic.
If exalted Venus is influenced by two or more than two benefic planets in the fifth house, it may turn significantly or highly benefic. Apart from that, the overall theme of horoscope having such exalted Venus can also turn it benefic in some cases, when such theme is highly benefic. The concept of malefic planets turning benefic due to influences of benefic planets has been explained in Manglik Dosh section of the book ‘Match Making and Manglik Dosh (Revised Edition)’.
Let’s look at some results which may be given by exalted Venus in the fifth house when it is benefic. Such benefic exalted Venus can bless the native with good results related to marriage, wife, children, love life, creativity, spiritual growth, profession, finances and several other good results, depending on his overall horoscope. Looking at the sphere of marriage, such benefic exalted Venus can bless the native with a wide variety of good results related to marriage, depending on the overall horoscope.
In horoscopes with Scorpio ascendant, Venus rules the seventh house as the sign Taurus ruled by Venus falls in this house. It means Venus becomes the general as well as specific signifier of marriage for male natives with Scorpio ascendant. In case of female natives, Venus becomes the specific signifier of marriage by virtue of being the lord of the seventh house whereas Jupiter is the general signifier of marriage for them. Hence Venus becomes important for female natives and it becomes very important for male natives, when it comes to the affairs related to marriage.
Taking an example for a male native, suppose exalted Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Pisces along with benefic Saturn. Benefic Rahu is placed in the twelfth house in Libra, Ketu is placed in the sixth house in Aries, benefic Moon is placed in the second house in Sagittarius, benefic Sun is placed in the seventh house in Taurus and benefic exalted Jupiter is placed in the ninth house in Cancer. In this case, the native may get married to a woman who may be the citizen of a foreign country and he may settle abroad on the basis of his marriage. The native may enjoy a good marriage and he may also witness very good amount of professional success in such foreign country.
Benefic exalted Venus in the fifth house can make the native interested in creative fields and/or in fields like astrology and spiritualism. If his overall horoscope is supportive, the native may achieve success in one of these spheres. Taking an example, suppose exalted Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Pisces. Mercury is placed in the fourth house in Aquarius, benefic Jupiter is placed in the first house in Scorpio, benefic Saturn is placed in the eighth house in Gemini and Mars is placed in the sixth house in Aries. In this case, the native may engage in the field of spiritualism or astrology, depending on his overall horoscope and he may experience good results.
Apart from these, benefic exalted Venus in the fifth house of horoscope can bless the native with several other good results, depending on his overall horoscope.
On the other hand, malefic exalted Venus in the fifth house of horoscope can trouble the native with problems related to love life, children, creativity, spiritual growth, marriage, profession, reputation and several other problems, depending on his overall horoscope. Looking at the sphere of children, such malefic exalted Venus can cause various types of problems related to children. The native may not have his first child till late in his life, he may face problems through children, he may not have good relationships with his children or he may have to part with his children, depending on his overall horoscope.
Taking an example, suppose malefic exalted Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Pisces, malefic Rahu is placed in the sixth house in Aries and a combination of malefic Ketu and Jupiter is placed in the twelfth house in Libra. In this case, the native may not have his first child till the age of 35 and the couple may also have to avail medical treatment in order to have their first child. If Saturn is placed in the fifth house in Pisces with Venus, a combination of malefic Mercury and Sun is placed in the fourth house in Aquarius and Moon is placed in the eighth house in Gemini, the equation may become worse. The native may not have his first child till the age of 40 or he may not have a child throughout his life, depending on his overall horoscope, finer factors and running times.
Taking another example, suppose malefic exalted Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Pisces along with Mars. Jupiter is placed in the sixth house in Aries, Sun is placed in the seventh house in Taurus and benefic Moon is placed in the tenth house in Leo. In this case, the native may have children though his first child may be born after some delay as well as medical complications. However, one of his children may suffer from physical or mental health issues, right from his birth.

If malefic Mercury is placed in the sixth house with Jupiter, malefic Rahu is placed in the second house in Sagittarius and malefic Ketu is placed in the eighth house in Gemini, the equation may become worse. The native may witness the death of his first child soon after his birth or such child may die before he reaches the age of 15, depending on native’s overall horoscope, finer factors and running times.
Considering another example, suppose malefic exalted Venus is placed in the fifth house of a horoscope in Pisces along with malefic Rahu. Ketu is placed in the eleventh house in Virgo and a combination of Sun and malefic Mercury is placed in the seventh house in Taurus. In this case, the native may have to live away from his children for one reason or another. The native may spend many years away from home due to professional reasons, he may get divorced and his wife may get the custody of children or the children may be sent away for studies. For instance, if Jupiter is placed in the sixth house of this horoscope in Aries along with Mars, and Moon is placed in the twelfth house in Libra, the native may get divorced and his wife may get the custody of children.
Apart from these, malefic exalted Venus in the fifth house of horoscope can trouble the native with several other problems, depending on his overall horoscope.
