Calling all
singles! Where are you in your search for the perfect mate? Are you passionate
about the dating scene? How many times have you been down the Road of
Love only to find that your romantic partner did not meet your needs?
Regardless of who initiated the breakup, pain and grieving are part of
the cycle. Memories keep emotions at the raw state. The flames fizzled
and you are without a mate. If you thought your new partner was your soul
mate, it’s time to face the issues and figure out what happened on your
love journey.
How would
you know if you are likely to meet someone just by looking at your astrology
chart? Your astrology chart holds valuable information about your love
life. Well, the planets keep moving by sign and degree. These movements
are called transits. If a currently moving planet contacts one of your
natal personal planets, your timing may be right for starting a new relationship.
Look for activity in both charts to move this relationship along.
Before you
swear off another relationship, know that you are not alone. Countless
individuals find themselves recovering from broken relationships. The
key is inner healing. That means asking tough questions about the quality
of the fated relationship. If you don’t deal with the issues, you’ll keep
making the same mistakes and attracting similar partners.
Self-Analysis
After you
have released your anxiety over past or present partnership experiences,
address your current state of reality. Are you over the old partner? If
not, you may have blocks to attracting a new mate. Next, deal with trust
issues. Start with yourself. Without it, your search is flawed. Once you
feel open to romance, do key inner work to help you identify suitable
partners. First, think about who you are as a unique being and what would
make you happy in a relationship. The following self-assessment test should
help you make better choices for yourself. Take your time—it is worth
the investment.
What type
of partner have I attracted in the past?
Make a list
of positive qualities or experiences.
Make a list
of undesirable qualities or experiences.
What type
of partner would meet my needs?
Describe
your top ten preferences in terms of qualities in a mate. Don’t stop if
you can think of more than ten.
List favorite
activities you like to share with a partner.
Where do
I usually meet potential partners?
Am I satisfied
that individuals I might have compatibility with are to be found in these
places?
What worked
in the past?
What did
not work?
Am I willing
to change set patterns and old habits to open up my field of contact?
What are
my goals, values and expectations in a relationship?
Name one
change that took place in your life in the last month.
What are
you willing to change in the months ahead to improve the quality of your
relationships?
Think
of these questions as trigger tools that get you started in your goal
to make things happen. You will need to change your routines. That means
getting off the couch and exploring new social outlets.
The
Ultimate Quest
Once you
make a decision to find your ideal partner, also called a soul mate, your
success depends on how ready you are to take a risk. You may be thinking,
“Do I get a guarantee for lifetime happiness with the new person I am
about to date?” After all, I did the work. The answer, of course, is NO.
You are going to explore this relationship once it opens up. Deep inside
you will know whether you are ready. Let your quest be an adventure as
you start looking for signs, developing awareness and noticing your feelings.
Some of the signs to look for are: a sense of love at first sight, a feeling
that you have been with this person before, a sense that you deeply understand
each other even though you just met, a pull of destiny regarding the relationship
and an awareness that this is the person you have dreamed about and wanted
in your life. Remember, too, to look for connections or activity in your
birth chart and that of your potential partner.
The
Astrological Factor
Perhaps you
have thought about checking Sun sign compatibility with that of your significant
other. If this term is new to you, it simply means that your astrology
sign seems to work well with your partner’s. Signs in the fire (Aries,
Leo, Sagittarius) and air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) elements relate favorably
to one another as do the earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) with
water (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces).
Understanding
Sun sign compatibility gives you a head start, but is seldom enough proof
that a relationship is solid. Your astrological chart reflects your blueprint
for this lifetime. It presents a true picture of your emotional needs,
passions and feelings through the expression of your personal planets,
the Sun, the Moon, Venus and Mars. Those planets are compared with a prospective
partner’s planets to give you insight into the relationship’s future.
This process is much more involved than our article covers, but it is
a vital part of your love assessment if you want to know more about your
mutual connections. I highly recommend a compatibility consultation when
your relationship takes off.
