Are squares affected by transits?

[Ask Satya Operator]

I am planning to do a Venus Square soon, and I checked the transits of my natal chart: Venus will be transiting my Ascendent, which relates to one of Venus' rulerships, at the time of starting.

Does this mean the energy will be amplified and/or directed more effectively to the outward appearance if I do a Venus Square for physical beauty, because this obviously relates to the attributes of the Ascendent literally but also rulership wise.

Short answer - yes.

Long answer - Do not do any Square if it is in retrograde.
