Do you get rid of photos, ticket stubs, any other memorable mementos when a relationship dissolves? Whats your Moon/Venus/Mars/7th house signs and how do you usually approach this? Keep the items or get rid of them?

Interesting question, can't wait to see others answer it.

For me it depends on how the relationship went. If it was terrible (disrespect, betrayal, etc) Then yes, I will get rid of almost everything. I'll use a Cancer sun/moon/venus guy I used to see as an example. The "relationship" was a complete disaster, without going into a lot of details he was abusive and I was not the girl for him. I got rid of e-mails, a bracelet made in his country, pictures, notes and many sketches. But I couldn't bring myself to destroy his sketchbook. I still own it. Mainly it's because I have a big respect for art rather than any semblance of feeling for him.
But on another note...I tend to keep old, cute text messages on my phone and hold onto old but good conversations like some sappy person. It's only if I still hold some sort of reverence for that person, though. If not, it's just apart of forgotten history.

I think it was Linda Goodman that wrote Leo women tend to hang onto love notes and other objects of sentiment from old lovers.

Nah, I completely eliminate them.

If it's something nice though, like this one shirt someone once bought me, I'll keep it just because I like stuff. Someone once drew me and framed it and I kept that because I'm a vain motherf!cker, haha!

I don't get rid of them.. but i feel like it but if i do get rid of them which i have some i regret it later.. i always want to look back at memories (i love photographs) Leo sun and moon, sun in 7th moon in 8th. venus in virgo in 8th(7th cusp). mars in cancer in 7th house... i think the mars in cancer makes me very sentimental and its the part of me that wants to look back on relationships.

No. I usually stay friends and I like my memories! (Cancer AC)

There was only one exception - my first love.. He is completely deleted and I have no photos of him.. Everything has been thrown out.

Everyone else - I have a good relationship with.

I d0n't keep them even when the relati0nship's going on. Firstly, I hate clutter and hoarding! Can't keep anything that's of n0 use. Sec0nd, I just d0n't care about these things. I tried being all r0mantic and treasuring a ticket stub once, but I couldn't find it the next day itself. Lost it.
I never bother with clicking pics either. And if there are remnants left(a gift for instance), I return, throw or keep it(depending on if I can use it or n0t).

Sag sun/venus/mars, empty 7h in leo, virgo m0on.

Remove every trace of them. Give away everything they gave. Etc.. Now if only I could do something about the memories! just kidding those were actually mostly fantastic. I don't hold any bitterness towards them it's just that I don't want to be reminded about fuking up another chance with a great person.

YES!!!! Lol When I'm done officially it's as if you're dead to me. I want no trace of what we had. Sort of like a subconcious burial. I remember after my first love dumped me I went outside and burned everything. He tried to come back after a few months or so but I told him there's no way he's coming back into my life and inflicting that sort of pain on my heart again. When I love I love deep and it's never false or misleading therefore I protect myself from further pain by eliminating the physical memories.

Moon Sag in 9th
Venus Cap in 10th
Libra in 7th

Also wanted to point out that my mars, jupiter, pluto and saturn are also in 7th. Wonder if that plays a part in it? Once I'm over you though my aqua sun can be your friend on fb and even hit the "like" status on your new relationship. Lol

I kept the ones from the meaningful relationships, deleted the ones from the non-meaningful ones. Lately I've been noticing a tendency to delete/burn everything. It is what I've done with my last 3 exes. But the ones before.. yeah, I still have letters, pics, gifts.. I used to sleep with a stuffed reindeer my Aqua gave me for my birthday long after we broke up.. Idk why. I left him so it's not like I was thinking of him or anything.. guess the reindeer was a symbol of happier times..

I have Sag Moon (DC ruler - Cancer DC) conj Neptune and SN.
Taurus Venus unaspected.

WELL IT DEPENDS.
Basically yes--I'm supposed to move on, right? Getting rid of everything helps. (except valueable items/expensive gifts--just because.) Plus wouldn't want to interfere with future involvements.A paradox would be keeping an item for the wonderful memory attached to it.

I keep their fb. I'll like a status, I don't care. Just won't ever be close to them again.

With friends, if I feel like things cannot be fixed, getting rid of everything is how I rid myself completely of the person. It's a step in the healing process. Once I am ready to tear everything up and destroy it, and I do that, I feel free and like a weight is lifted.

Someone really has to get to the "point of no return" for that to happen, though.

I will defriend and then block someone, too.

Definitely, and if someone really hurt me (like my recent ex) I make them feel like they never existed in my life. But I'm still young and this is only based off of my first real relationship.

Stash around for a while, sentimental reasons. But then burn it all cos I start to feel held back by the memory staring at me. Pluto aspects Moon/Venus/Mars.
