Love and Romance via The Planets

The three main areas of life that cause people to seek advice are relationships, 
health, and career/job/money. Since the Holiday of Love, St. Valentine’s Day, is 
next Monday, the focus of this essay will be on relationships. 

One true test to determine if it is  love or lust: Lust wants to get, while love 
wants to give!

The Fifth House rules fun and games, in other words, romance. Romance is said to 
be a fantasy; while marriage, Seventh House concerns, is reality. Anyone who 
confuses fantasy with reality is bound to suffer! Romantic dining in a fine 
restaurant is much more fun than trying the stretch one pound of hamburger for 
two adults and three children. On the other hand, children bring much happiness 
that can endure a lifetime.

The planetary ruler of the Fifth House, (the planet that rules the sign on the 
cusp of your Fifth House) and any planets in the Fifth House, plus the aspects 
they make to other planets, will tell you about the romance in your life or lack 
thereof.

The ruler of the Seventh House (the planet that rules the sign on the cusp of 
your Seventh House) and any planets in your Seventh House, plus the aspects they 
make to other planets, will tell you about the legal marriage partner in your life. 

If your Lights (Sun, a star and the Moon, a satellite) or Descendant are in any 
of the three double signs of the Zodiac (Gemini, Sagittarius, and Pisces) you 
will most likely marry more than once. The sign on the cusp of the Ninth house 
and planets therein will tell you about the second marriage, and if they have a 
gambling streak, the Eleventh House and planets therein will tell you about your 
third marriage.

If you really want your marriage to last a lifetime, think on the following. The 
first type of attraction is like lightening, BAM! you are in loooove! It often 
lasts about as long as it takes to get started. Lucky you if it lasts past three 
months.

The second type of attraction as a friendship, and then one day he notices that 
you have the same standard equipment for a female since Day One and it looks 
rather good. This marriage will often last a life time, but no guarantees. 

The third type of attraction which is most likely to last a life time is between 
partners who share a "passion", meaning a great enthusiasm for something they 
were engaged in before they met. For example, stamp collecting, or any type of 
collecting, "Save the Whales", bird watching, French antiques, Impressionist 
paintings, aquariums, etc... You get the idea. Unfortunately there are not enough 
ladies for all the men who would like to share their passion for football, the 
game that tosses around the ancient symbol of the female, the Yoni.

Now you should be aware, ladies, that if you want to be surrounded by men, it 
would behoove you to stand beside the local stream on opening day of fishing 
season. But if you really don’t care for worms or the smell of fish, you are not 
being true to yourself.

Contact any qualified Astrologer to help you get in touch with what you really 
care about, then follow your heart. The odds are that this path will lead to 
someone with whom you would like to share your life forever.
