Marriage Indicators Favourable For Marriage

An Astrology Birth Chart, or Horoscope, shows your destiny. As the saying goes, it is written in the stars. Therefore when we are born certain events and people are fated. How we respond and what we choose is self-determined, but fate certainly plays a hand. As such an Astrology Chart shows whether or not relationships are favoured, or difficult. Of course, in our hearts, we know the truth, but sometimes we are attached to a certain outcome, or our emotional wounds dictate to our good sense. This is when astrology, and other forms of guidance, can play a helpful role. This report outlines some of the basic tenets and scores your likelihood of enjoying harmonious and life-enhancing marriage contracts. Relationships are not always easily measurable, and therefore this report is meant as a guide rather than a definitive answer. If it has the ring of truth then you are likely to recognise and acknowledge your own truth. Herein lays the strength of such reports. Traditional Astrologers state that you can choose to live in a defacto relationship, as an alternative to a formal marriage contract. This may be, according to certain astrological schools of thought, a sensible approach to an otherwise challenging area of your life. However, this section depicts the strengths and positive signposts, rather than the challenges. Here you can see your chances of conjugal bliss.

Barack Obama's Marriage Prospects

Barack Obama Has No Favourable Planets

The report shows that no favourable planets reside in the marriage sector of your Astrology Chart. This does not mean that a marriage cannot be entered into as this report is limited in its interpretation of your full Birth Chart. It is a basic human need to want a friend and companion to share life’s ups and downs. You may still wish to find a special someone to share your triumphs and offer consolation in troubled times. Indeed you are able to do so. The degree to which you are willing to adapt and compromise and work at marriage is reflected in other areas of your chart, and therefore your nature. The fact that the five main positive planets do not reside in the marriage sector of your Birth Chart may mean that you are more appreciative of your spouse when marriage does occur. Complacency is something that you avoid and therefore your union flourishes. It may also mean that other areas of your life take precedence or there may be other favourable astrological marriage indicators. You may be the type of person who is happy to focus on your career or friends, preferring to enjoy the freedom that a single life can offer. This is a choice that you can happily make. On the other hand you are reading this report which indicates that you are ready to broach the subject of marriage, at the very least. There is also an argument that says that when you are young you are likely to enter blithely into marriage not fully realising the extent to which compromise is required. As you mature your wisdom, gained from personal experience, stands you in good stead in your union, or should you have divorced and are ready to make another commitmenht. Other astrological factors may influence your marital sector, and also you may like to see if there are any unfavourable influences, or consult an Astrologer who may see the other positive influences. You may also enjoy obtaining a more comprehensive Birth Chart report to read the full influences of the stars on your marriage prospects.

Your Partner Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Marriage Prospects

Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Has No Favourable Planets
This report indicates that no favourable planets reside in the marriage sector of Michelle LaVaughn Robinson’s Astrology Chart. This does not mean that a marriage cannot be entered into, but asks that you explore this topic further. It may mean that other areas of Michelle LaVaughn Robinson’s life take precedence, or perhaps there are some contrary influences which support a cautionary approach to marriage. In the modern times of instant gratification, it may seem difficult to take things slowly, but this is wise in certain cases. It is also possible that there are other influences in Michelle LaVaughn Robinson’s Birth Chart that encourage a marriage union. Personal commitment to relationships in general may be reflected in other sectors of your partner’s Birth Chart. As such his diligence within marriage may more than make up for a lack of planets residing in the marriage sector. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson may be committed to communication and tending any relationship because of his own personal traits. A lack of complacency is to be commended and recommended for the success of any long-term relationship. There is also an argument that says that when your partner was young he may have blithely entered marriage not fully realising the extent to which compromise was required. As he matured wisdom, gained from personal experience, proves invaluable for the union, or stands him in good stead to make informed marital choices should he have divorced and wish to make such a commitment again. Other astrological factors may influence your marital sector, and also you may like to see if there are any unfavourable influences, or consult an Astrologer who may see the other positive influences. By reading this report you are currently gaining valuable information about the influences on your partner’s attitudes to and behaviour in partnership. You may see this as a starting point and might like to consult an Astrologer or a more comprehensive Birth Chart report to read the full influences of the stars on your marriage prospects.

Marriage Indicators Contrary For Marriage

Nothing in life is straightforward. Our journey through our lives on this planet take twists and turns, just as any journey does. We start out with certain expectations, with a destination in mind and a plan. Sometimes these all turn out as predicted in our own minds. More often they do not. Either way the experiences encountered along the way enrich our lives, carving deeper understanding and empathy for our fellow human beings. In the same way astrology indicates that your most intimate relationships are unlikely to be straightforward. You may have very favourable marriage indicators, or contrary ones, or a mixture of both. These are simply signposts to help you along your relationship journey, to help you see the path more clearly. If you have a full quota of favourable indicators then you can enjoy a harmonious marriage. However, you may have a mix of both favourable and unfavourable. This means that you need to work at your marriage before complete harmony can be enjoyed. If you have mostly “unfavourable” indicators then marriage is certainly more than a challenge. You may choose to remain single, happily so. Alternatively you may choose carefully and wisely, perhaps living separately, or choosing not to sign an official religious or legal contract. If you enter into a defacto arrangement, then you would be wise to seek legal counsel and ensure that your assets are protected. Seeking the advice of a professional astrology may also shed light on other aspects of your birth chart that alleviate any contrary comments mentioned in this report. This report shows only a segment of the entire horoscope picture.

Many relationships that have had contrary indicators have survived as individuals within the couple maintain a strong sense of love and friendship. Others more favourably indicated have failed as adversity challenges them as individuals and the love, respect and friendship falters. Fate may bring us together but the choice of which bond to form, which path to follow and the nature of the relationship is ours. As Sepharial says:

All Nature springs forth in its due season and bears its leaf and flower and fruits, and having fruited, it begins to die down to its root. In marriage relations if that root be a spiritual and intellectual friendship finding continual expression in sympathy and understanding, then without doubt it will outlive the varied assaults of any misfortunes that may happen. But without this grappling hook of tried friendship the connubial ship is almost sure to drift and by sad fate may be broken on the rocks.

Barack Obama's Marriage Challenges
Mars is in the 7th House

The good news is that you have a strong drive to be in a relationship. You are enthusiastic, if somewhat driven, in your pursuit of a mate. Once married you are equally committed to your spouse. The problem is that wedlock can easily become gridlock. Whether you are an aggressive or passive person, you like to be the boss in your marriage. You don’t take easily to direction from your partner, and yet you also are not attracted to submissive personalities. These types of prospective mates bore you. Therefore married life is a challenge indeed as you strive to find someone as assertive as yourself, without an endless bout of conflict. Depending on other aspects of your astrology, you may be better advised to seek business partners, and simply enjoy a single life, or at least remain in a defacto rather than sign any legal contracts. On its own this is not conducive to harmonious unions, but rather to feisty ones. You may find a potential mate who enjoys passion, spark and conflict. However, eventually one of you is likely to run out of the energy to maintain the drive needed to resolve any battles that erupt. Once you have decided that someone is worth marrying then the challenge for you is to assert yourself in a partnership in a way that is not aggressive or detrimental to a potential spouse. When your partner says that you are “too bossy” you may like to listen and find alternative methods of asserting your own needs. Marriage is about co-operation, not competition. You can compete in other fields, or perhaps you could go into business with your marriage partner, and compete with others. You may enjoy participating in a competitive sport with your partner by your side. On the other side of the coin you may need to be wary that you do not enter into a marriage in which you may suffer at the hands of someone who is too bossy or overbearing. The battle for supremacy could be destabilising to other areas of your life, if you marry unhappily. If you have other positive marriage indicators, then you could enjoy a passionate and sexual partnership that stimulates both of you. You may be well-advised to sign a pre-nuptial agreement that covers rights to any single or joint assets, custody of potential children and anything else that may become an area of contention.

Uranus is in the 7th House

The planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are considered to be transpersonal, rather than personal planets. They are included in this scoring system as they do present unusual challenges and therefore you should note their influence on the marriage section of your Horoscope. The planets are likely to have a disruptive effect on your feelings about marriage.
With the planet Uranus in your marriage sector you may have more difficulty than others settling into a committed marriage and yet you are not sure why this should be. Early childhood experiences are likely to be playing a part, but it is also possible that you can’t quite distinguish your own feelings from those of other people’s. Perhaps you listen to others, even a prospective partner, instead of listening to your own intuition and experience? A qualified Astrologer could shed further light on their influence.

This unusual planet does not sit well in the marriage sector of your chart. Uranus has a wild, intellectual, freedom-seeking influence, whereas a successful marriage calls for a strong emotional bond based on mutual understanding and give and take.

When you are young you are likely to attract wild and unusual individuals. At first your potential partner seems exciting, perhaps even irresistible, but like a wild fire sooner or later the heat dies down and you are left with the embers. It is at this point that you become restless, or your partner does, and the relationship fizzles out. You may not realise just how independent you are, or just how much independence you require within a relationship.

As you mature you may be able to attract a unique partner, someone with whom you can forge an understanding based on mutual respect and the ability to express yourselves freely. However, your courtship may be unusual and you are more likely to negotiate a relationship that allows for freedom, rather than make a traditional marriage vow. If you, or your partner, feel shackled within traditional wedlock then you need to carefully negotiation, and be in agreement, about a contract that suits you both.

Pluto is in the 7th House

The planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are considered to be transpersonal, rather than personal planets. They are included in this scoring system as they do present unusual challenges and therefore you should note their influence on the marriage section of your Horoscope. The planets are likely to have a disruptive effect on your feelings about marriage. With Pluto in your marriage sector you may have more difficulty than others settling into a committed marriage and yet you are not sure why this should be. Early childhood experiences are likely to be playing a part, but it is also possible that you can’t quite distinguish your own feelings from those of other people’s. Perhaps you listen to others, even a prospective partner, instead of listening to your own intuition and experience? A qualified Astrologer could shed further light on their influence.

Score:3

You have three contrary indicators for a happy and harmonious marriage. This report is meant as a guide only and it is important to note that these contrary indicators can be offset if you have one or more favourable ones. You may still enter into marriage, and clearly may have done so already. This score is a signal that the road may at times be rocky. This is true of many worthwhile things in life. Alternatively you may choose to enjoy an unconventional partnership that is not based on traditional marriage vows but rather suits your own specific requirements. Please seek the advice of a professional astrologer for further valuable information about marriage in your Birth Chart.

Your Partner Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Marriage Challenges
Score:1

Your partner Michelle LaVaughn Robinson has one of the contrary indicators for a happy and harmonious marriage. This is not a major challenge, but rather something to be noted as a possible road block from time to time. Also this report is meant as a guide only and it is important to note that these contrary indicators can be offset if Michelle LaVaughn Robinson has one or more favourable ones. Your partner may still enter into marriage, and clearly you both may have done so already. This score is a signal that the road may at times be rocky. This is true of many worthwhile things in life. Please seek the advice of a professional astrologer for further valuable information about marriage in you and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson’s Birth Charts.

Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Has No Contrary Planets

No contrary planets reside in the marriage sector of your partner’s Astrology Chart. This is a positive indicator of a clear path to marital happiness, particularly if your partner has favourable influences. It may also mean that other areas of your partner’s life take precedence. For instance your partner may focus on career or other independent pursuits. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson may the freedom that a single life can offer. Nevertheless if Michelle LaVaughn Robinson also has favourable indicators then you are likely to enjoy a union that offers both support in troubled times and joyful companionship in happy moments. As long as Michelle LaVaughn Robinson is committed to his vows and willing to tend to this union then you are both on the right path. This union may need a little effort to ensure that love blossoms and marriage thrives. As American journalist Mignon McLaughlin says: ”A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.” You and your partner, Michelle LaVaughn Robinson, have few obstacles to achieving this goal if it is what you both want. If you are in agreement that this is a coupling of consequence then other sections of this report can show you the strengths on this union, on which you can build a lasting bond. You can also consult an Astrologer or a more comprehensive Birth Chart report to read the full influences of the stars on your marriage prospects.

Sun And Moon Key Harmonising Factors

Romance is written in the stars, but the path to true love doesn’t always run smoothly. Knowing the harmonising factors in your own and your partner’s astrology can help you make decisions that ensure success in marriage. Astrologers know the secrets to the harmonising influences and cycles that make marriage work and one of the keys to this is consideration of the harmonious aspects between each person’s Sun and Moon. These personal planets are key factors in basic personality traits. Therefore it is important that each person has a rapport with their partner, particularly if you are considering a commitment in marriage. In this report we shed some light on the hidden forces at play in your romantic destiny. This section only represents a small part of your relationship story. Nevertheless it is an important one, as understanding your own and your partner’s personal needs, preferences and personality traits can deepen your love. As the two of you gain a better appreciation of each other’s personalities, your relationship can grow in a way that promotes love, commitment and togetherness. This report gives an astrological marriage score, but the choice and the commitment ultimately come from both of you.

Barack Obama's Sun is in Masculine and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Sun is in Feminine
This is a more challenging combination, as it indicates that you have different ways in which you approach life, and express your identity. Barack Obama is more of a go getter, likely to meet life head on, whereas Michelle LaVaughn Robinson is a little more reflective. Barack Obama goes ahead and takes the initiative where Michelle LaVaughn Robinson hesitates. If you are aware of this and are able to accommodate each other’s differences then your relationship can be a satisfactory one. However, this is not as conducive to marriage as other more harmonious ones. You need to check other combinations in your Star MatchMaker report, and may need to consult an astrologer to check on the bigger astrological picture. Otherwise you may find that you are prone to conflict as one of you is pulling in one direction, while the other pulls in a different one. The best way through this marital combination challenge is to develop tolerance for each other’s differences. One of you may be the leader and the other the follower. If you can agree for Barack Obama to be the boss, or if you can decide on areas of responsibility within your marriage then all can be harmonious. As long as you are able to give each other the freedom or encouragement needed then you can make this combination work.

Barack Obama's Moon is in Air and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Moon is in Air
The Moon is considered one of the most personal points in Astrology, and therefore is very significant in any personal relationship, and particularly in marriage. This combination is one of the most fortuitous indicating a strong emotional bond, which is essential for a long-lasting marital bond. You are simpatico. This is a marriage made in heaven because the two of you feel in tune with each other. This combination can be good for friendship, if other aspects of your astrology clash. However, it is ideal for a love relationship because you are in harmony in a key area - your emotions. Feelings play such a vital role in any significant relationship. Therefore you are fortunate indeed to have found someone who understands yours, and vice versa. When you are highly compatible emotionally this flows through to all other aspects of your relationship. You love to communicate your feelings and who better to listen than the person closest to your heart. Together you can spend hours chatting about the weather, daily chores, politics, hobbies, neighbours and just about anything. Of course, you really love to talk about the things closest to your heart, but any subject takes on a shiny new feel when shared with each other. This is a sharing and caring union. You may feel so connected that you are almost psychic – knowing each other’s thoughts before they are said, and finishing each other’s sentences. Unknowingly, you both reach for the phone to call each other at the same time. The realm of intellect, and the daily comings and goings may take precedence in your communications. Feelings may be something that you are less comfortable talking about. However, you are both in agreement on this subject – the less said the better. Mostly this works for you because you have a connection that is based on friendship, companionship and shared interests.

Barack Obama's Sun is in Fire and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Moon is in Air
The course of an intimate relationship runs a lot more smoothly when both people are on the same wavelength. Of course commitment is still required, but it is a lot easier when two people are in tune with each other. The elements of a person are similar to those in Mother Nature or Gaia. Fire sparks Fire to make a bigger, more spectacular Fire show. Water joins with Water to spread from a small creek to an ocean brimming with even more aquatic delights. So it goes on. It is similar in relationships. When two similar elements combine, the two people concerned are working together to create a beautiful partnership. When two opposing elements combine then challenges arise. Water can douse a Fire. Alternately Air can fan Fire. Hence the elements either aid or obstruct each other. In the same way two people, when combining, can either aid or obstruct each other. Fortunately this is a positive combination indicating that you are a potent couple, enjoying each other’s company and working together harmoniously. The Sun and Moon are both considered to be personal planets and yours are joined together in compatible Zodiac Fire and Air Signs. Therefore you share a mutual attraction. You enjoy lively conversations, shared interests and a mutual understanding of each other’s personality traits. The connection between you is an easy one. You are naturally interested in each other’s lives, and easily combine your private lives in a personal relationship. Occasionally the fiery Sun can dominate the airy Moon, but this does not last for long, as the airy Moon quickly adapts to the situation and compromises in a way that is win/win. Communication is a key factor in the success of this relationship.

This combination can indicate two people who are attracted but whose differences become obstacles to personal happiness. With commitment you can work through your differences, but you both need to be certain that this is what you want. Are there enough other strong elements of compatibility in your natures, and your Horoscopes to warrant the leap of faith and the compromise that this relationship needs? If so then this influence is not as strong and you can rely on the strength of your bond. With other positive astrological influences, then Barack Obama can seek the freedom and stimulation that he craves and receive understanding and support from Michelle LaVaughn Robinson. In return Michelle LaVaughn Robinson can be offered reassurance and appreciation for the role that he plays in this vital relationship.

Score 3:
Congratulations you have scored 3 out of a possible score of 8 and are on your way to enjoying a compatible and successful union. A little compromise may be required at times but you enjoy each other’s company and are keen to work through any differences. Look at where you have scored and build on this and you can enjoy a compatible union. A little compromise will be required at times if you are to keep the flame of your love alive, but unless you have other opposing aspects in your Horoscopes, you have a good basis for a positive relationship. It is more likely that you have other supportive indicators for marriage because you are reading this report.

Venus And Mars – The Spark

Compatibility in marriage is important. Long before a marriage contract is signed two people meet and a spark is ignited. This spark can be named love, sexual attraction, hormones or any other name. Nevertheless this spark has the power to either gently nudge, gradually tip or catapult a relationship from a friendship into the realm of romance, love, and sometimes lust.

Shared sensuality is a wonderful experience but it is not enough on its own to form the basis of a lasting union. This section will help you distinguish the nature of the attraction. Other sections of this report will help you to discern whether or not you have the basis for a long-term union.

As in popular culture the planets Venus and Mars really do depict the attractor factor. Whether this relationship has started as a friendship or not, sexual attraction is the spark that must have raised the question of commitment, and therefore marriage. This section depicts the nature of the spark that has enticed you to read this report. This Star MatchMaker report is for lovers rather than friends. Do you and your partner have that inexplicable spark that brings two people together, or is the attraction one-sided? If you are already sure of the nature of your intended union, then while not enough to hold a marriage together on its own, shared sexual pleasure is often a healing and uplifting source of joy.

This report will also help you understand your sexual union which is integral to marriage. Once the spark of sexual attraction has dimmed then other harmonising factors play their part. This section whets your appetite with some hints about your compatibility between the sheets.

Barack Obama's Venus is in Water and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Venus is in Water
The planet of love is high on the list when it comes for looking at indicators of marital love and passion. This combination is a powerful one, indicating that you are in agreement about the way that any love relationship is conducted. This is a big head start towards a long-lasting commitment. Do you feel like you have known this person for a very long time? Whether this relationship is destined for marriage, or a friendship, you are likely to feel a strong bond. As individuals you both place a strong emphasis on feelings being considered in relationships. You are likely to be considerate, kind and caring. This is something that you both agree on and therefore you are likely to experience comfort, safety and peace when in each other’s company. Feelings play an important part in this primary relationship. Separately and together you are vulnerable to your own, and other people’s emotions. This is true no matter how calm and rational you are in other areas of your life. Marriage, and thoughts of marriage, stirs up strong feelings. Now you have found an empathetic mate in Michelle LaVaughn Robinson. Both of you seek solace in each other’s arms. You both feel comfortable and comforted by this union. On the contrary you both need a certain level of emotional equilibrium before seeking sexual release. This is the case for both of you. You need to make love as opposed to merely have a sexual encounter. If there is an attraction then you will only pursue passion once you feel safe. You seek unconditional love and may well find it in this relationship.

Barack Obama's Mars is in Feminine and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Mars is in Masculine
This is a challenging combination of the fiery planet Mars. Michelle LaVaughn Robinson’s general approach to life is direct, impulsive and perhaps at times somewhat impulsive. On the other hand you like to approach things a little more slowly, developing a strategic or only moving forward when you feel comfortable. You need other connections to spark the sexual flame. If these other connections do occur and ignite a sexual liaison then this particular combination could influence matters in a stop-start fashion. In other words the spark is strong but the timing is not always correct. You may both have moments in this relationship whereby you feel that you are not in sync. A long-lasting reunion can still be established but only after you both try to see things from the other person’s point of view. Otherwise you are likely to clash and while “make-up” sex can be fun, one or both of you may start to crave some more meaningful encounters.

Barack Obama's Mars is in Earth and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Venus is in Water
Love and sex are aspects of life that intrigue, and perhaps even obsess many people. The media overflows with information about these topics. While other planets can reveal personality compatibility, in astrology the planets Venus and Mars reveal some of the secrets of our sexual compatibility. Soul mates are not necessarily bed mates. Therefore astrologers look at the planets Venus and Mars for vital information about love and sexuality. Not only can the marrying of the planets Venus and Mars reveal whether or not this is a love match, it can also give handy hints on how to approach your partner when you are not a perfect match in the bedroom. This is a compatible combination for sensual enjoyment. You both know the value of taking your time and waiting for the right mood. You are sensitive to each other’s needs and willing to take your time to create the right mood. You find comfort in each other’s arms. Barack Obama may be a little more sensitive than Michelle LaVaughn Robinson. When the planet of love, Venus, is in a watery sign it can indicate heightened sensitivity to a loved one’s mood. Therefore Barack Obama is unlikely to approach Michelle LaVaughn Robinson sexually unless he is sure of being welcomed. On the other hand the sensual, earthbound Michelle LaVaughn Robinson is likely to enjoy any sexual encounter that provides an opportunity to gently and lovingly reconnect in an intimate manner. Sexual intimacy is valued by both Barack Obama and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson.

Barack Obama's Venus is in Feminine and Michelle LaVaughn Robinson's Mars is in Masculine
This is a difficult courtship. Sparks may ignite at the beginning of your relationship, but it is a challenge to keep the flames alight. You need other strong harmonising factors in order to sustain your love. You do not set out to upset each other. It is simply that difficulties arise in this love affair, prior to marriage. They are likely to continue into the union unless you can find a way to resolve your differences in the bedroom. It is important that you face facts and work on resolving the misunderstandings and disappointments that arise in order to have hope of a successful union. Pretending problems don’t exist will only make matters worse. The good news is that there is a frisson of attraction and where there is smoke there can definitely be fire. If you are both committed then this spark can be flamed. If you are happy to do so then you may chose to remain as close friends rather than lovers. Many a lifelong friendship has resulted from a love affair ended amicably.

Score 3:
This section scores your compatibility in connection to love and relationship values. In particular it pertains to passion and sexuality, a key ingredient to both sparking, and helping maintain a marriage. Congratulations you have scored 3 out of a possible score of 8. This may not seem like a high score but the higher scores are not very common and this is a good score. This score indicates that there is likely to be the sexual attraction necessary to spark a marital union, as well as the basis for agreement on how a long-term relationship needs to be conducted. As such you are well on your way to enjoying a compatible and successful union. On the whole you are in agreement as to how your relationship should be approached both in and out of the bedroom. You now have some valuable information about how each of you likes to approach love and sex. As English philosopher and statesman Sir Francis Bacon once said, “Knowledge is power”. You now have the power to gain greater understanding of this union.

Conclusion

No two people are alike. The same can be said for relationships. This report has outlined some of the main factors in determining the most favourable ingredients for a successful relationship. However, it is only an indicator and cannot possibly cover the full gamut of each individual’s relationship traits, or each couple’s strengths and weaknesses. Free will also comes into play. The most challenging relationships can often attract the most determined individuals, both committed to and succeeding in a lifelong bond. You have probably heard the saying “Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars”. In astrology a man’s Mars joining with a woman’s Venus or Sun is indeed a powerful statement of attraction. Many a couple has stayed together based on an initial attraction, whether or not this ultimately makes them both happy. In short there are many more intricate and well researched astrological aspects that can shed more light on this important area of life. This report is meant a guide to help you understand your own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to the arena of marriage, as well as an indicator of some of the factors in your partnership.

Whether you and your partner have scored well, or to the contrary, in this report is in an indicator but not the conclusion. Relationships, like many areas of life, need tending. The degree to which you and your partner are willing to actively work at your union plays a large part in your success as a couple. Complacency is the enemy of all committed relationships. On the other hand your own ability to adapt, compromise and continually keep the doors of communication open can combat complacency and overcome all obstacles.

The inspiration for this report was the eminent astrologer Sepharial, so it is appropriate for him to have the last word:

True marriage is grounded in a deep sympathy and understanding which has no self ends to serve and no desire to satisfy that is not mutual…. All Nature springs forth in its due season and bears its leaf and flower and fruit, and having fruited, it begins to die down to its root. In marriage relations if that root be spiritual and intellectual friendship finding continual expression in sympathy and understanding, then without doubt it will outlive the varied assaults of any misfortunes that may happen.
