Venus
Second from sun
Venus is the Roman goddess of love and beauty, equivalent to Greek Aphrodite.
The name extends to the second planet from the sun, visible as a bright morning or evening star.
A Venus is also a beautiful woman: She emerged from the sea like a Venus.
The Venus flytrap is a carnivorous plant.
In anatomy, the mons veneris and venereal diseases take their names from this goddess of sexual love.
