Well, first let me thank you for reminding me about "teachers" ahead of you on the Karmic wheel. That just may be the key I am looking for.Next, FYI according to Linda Goodmans Relationship Signs:
Venus Conjunct, Sextile, or Trine Pluto, pg 74-75
Whatever the connection-family, business., or friendship- these three aspects are evidence of a deep karmic bond from numerous past associations. Found in charts of lovers or mates, the bond is different and more profound.
With sextile or trine, if you choose to postpone union until another incarnation, your mutual feelings will nevertheless be intense. With the conjunction, it's doubtful that you'll choose postponement.
Soul Mates usually have other aspects in common like the Moon conjunct the Sun or ascendant in the other's chart, as well as multiple ties and conjunctions shown in both charts. In addition, they meet after a major crisis in one or the other's life. True Soul Mates are much more complex and rare than the idea that is commonly referred to in our culture.
pg 155-156
Venus Conjunct, Sextile, or Trine Pluto
There's and indisputable karmic tie between you, and it's a powerful one, to be sure. Prhaps you don't "believe in" reincarnation, the cause of such things as karmic ties. It doesn't matter. Not believing in it doesn't cancel its reality or keep it from working. It's just that certain matters are a whole lot easier to deal with when you comprehend the why of them.
If you don't have this book and want to know more, let me know and I'd be more that happy to type it up for ya.
I hate using the term "Soul Mates" because it is so general, and not everyone is out searching for their soul mate(s), some of us are just trying to figure out why things are happening the way they are, knowing there has to be a reason, wanting to make sense of things. Like "what on earth is go'in on here?" hahahahahaha
Hope this helps, if not...pretty interesting though huh?!!
