Thanks both! I was expecting somebody to know more. What I know for now is that is better to: - try getting benefics angular and malefics cadent - this will help improving the overall conditions in which the relationship develops. For who is new in astrology, benefics angular and malefics cadent mean to have Venus and Jupiter in an angular house (1, 4, 7, 10) and Mars, Saturn in a cadent house (3, 6, 9, 12).
- try having the rulers of the 1st and 7th houses as strong as possible (by essential and accidental dignities) and if possible - in aspect with each other or at least with as much (mutual) reception as possible - this will ensure that the two persons will show interest and there will be attraction/compatibility. The accidental dignities are the favorable places a planet can take in a chart (usually by house) without reference to the essential dignities (domicile, exaltation, triplicity, term, face).
- also the moon aspects that are very good for relationships are the positive aspects to the Sun and Venus. Other aspects can improve certain secondary relational areas such as the Moon - Mars or Pluto positive aspects with happy influence on the sexual level.
Somewhere I read that is good to take a look to the 1st and 7th House and their Lords (Planets that those signs rule over eg. Aries=Mars) to see which signs they are in. If they are in fixed signs, determine that the relationship will be long lasting. moveable-cardinal, of medium length (months) and common-mutable for short periods (weeks/days).
Other places I read just about the 1st and 7th house to be in fixed sign for longevity. I wonder what is better ...
Anyway I think is so very hard to find a good timing, to mach everything nicely!
and on other hand I am sure if a relationship is meant to be long lasting the circumstances will lead themself toward that best timing, but I can't help to give it a try!
